## 📋 Kit Contents

-   Cam Kit

## 🔌 Function

The cam creates the varying chamber volume required for the flexible impeller to draw and discharge seawater.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Cooling-water flow falls despite a serviceable impeller
-   Cam surface is deeply grooved or pitted
-   Impeller blades fail prematurely
-   Pump loses suction
-   Incorrect cam or screw is fitted for the pump revision

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Fits the D13 seawater pump specifically — visually similar to the D16 cam (23515823) but the two are not interchangeable
-   Pairs with shaft kit 23515793 in this pump family; the retaining screw required depends on the pump revision fitted, so match the screw to the actual pump rather than assuming one fits all D13 pumps
-   Superseded from 21165572 — if matching an older pump to current spares, expect the current cam profile rather than the original
