Ok so i have searched and searched cant find no info but i need a spider gasket for it and probably a whole lot more cause it is old...I'm new to the whole pool world and the filter was gave to me and the pool is up now but i cant backwash the pump till i get that i will plug for now but def. need help...Been reading the forum for weeks Lots of good info and i will def. be ordering the tf 100 :mrgreen:
On the side it says Super Sand II filter model #167.410192
 
That is a Sears part number. I went to searspartsdirect.com and entered the number and got a hit for a filter and multiport. They don't have parts, but it's no doubt a Hayward multiport. My bet is you can take it in to a pool store and they can match it, especially if you tell them to look at Hayward.

Oh yeah!, Welcome to TFP!

Funny you ask about the intex pump.

The answer is YES :party:

I used mine as a backup when my main pool pump wet end failed and it worked out well.

FYI...it wasn't the Waterway pump that failed, it was a Chinese one.

Lesson learned, go with something that is made here in the USA and you can get parts for it.
 
Yeah if i have to replace any of it it will be USA Equipment but the pool (intex 18 x 48 metal frame) ,Pump, Hoses, and sand filter was all gave to me....The sand filter came from a differnt source is why i was asking...I thought who would give all this stuff away right as summer was hitting but i sure do appreciate it... :mrgreen:
 
Bama...I have a question? Do you by any chance have the manual for that sand filter? I have the same one and the pump is squirting water out the wrong side and draining my pool instead of filtering it. I really need help on this one. Thanks :)
 
OK so I finally made it back around here and found some time to work on the pump I know 2 options have been giving for the gasket but I'm trying to narrow it down so I can order it so here is some pics of it apart...The other gasket was completely gone..

Well I just left the pool store and a big no go on the gasket she only carried 3 kind of hayward gaskets and it was none of them so I guess i will be measuring....I really hate pool stores...They was trying to sale me a whole filter and stuff that I didn't need...
 
Ok I ordered the gasket to fix the above pump..Then after i ordered it I went and got this hayward pump out of the barn hooked it up for the meantime but it is on its last leg also so again I need information for this filter cause the model number is gone on it also.. :rant: Maybe one day i will buy some new equipment to work with..

Well when I first hooked it up I thought every gasket in it needed replacing...I let it run for about 5 minutes water was spewing from everywhere and then all of a sudden it stopped and it has been working perfect...So i will just let it be until i get the parts for the other filter and get it running....So when the spider gasket comes in do you all have any advice putting it in??gluing??
