Often, replacement of the clearance rings will reduce the bypass and restore the pump to near
original performance. A complete restoration requires that the impeller also be replaced. Inspect
the front and back of both clearance ring IDs in several places for signs of wear. Measure the
diameter of each ring in several places. Using a caliper as shown on Figure 14, measure the ID of
each clearance ring and the OD of the impeller.
