Good thing you weren't a long ways from home when this happened.
I guess it is pretty good luck that the spare set of brushes will work in this pump though.

I agree the armature has a bunch of surface rust and I am going to be looking at using some sealant when I put it back together.
Not much sign of corrosion in other places inside at first glance but once I get it cleaned up I will do a real inspection. For all I know the armature came pre-rusted
The old pump didn't have a corrosion problem but there are some differences between the 140 and the 110 pumps. I think I will look into OE pump options before I dive into re-plumbing the system. Maybe there's a perfect brushless pump out there.
