How do i remove impeller
Once you take off the front cover. You will see the impeller. Take of the rear cover and the shaft has a flat spot on it. You can hold it with a open ended wrench and spin off the impeller. It will be tight. There is no need to take it off unless it's broken.
My marine macerator pump stopped working
first check if the pump get power. I presume your pump is 12V DC. If you have a dc tong tester that is one way.Or disconnect the motor and reconnect directly to a battery. Then a more crude way to test is to take one lead off and touch it together again. If your pump is stuck but the motor is still o.k. you will get a reasonable spark. No spark: your motor brushes are worn out or your motor is toast. You have a spark your pump is stuck with debris. Try to run it reverse(reverse the power leads) and or clean it out. You can see the cutter knifes from the intake end and should be able to turn them with a screw driver. New pumps on ebay: I paid $125

Moen single handle faucet, when turning off the water it drips on the cold side
Sephie, You have a very common problem. The short answer is you need to replace the Cartridge, which is Moen part # 1225.I have seen that so many times with that particular faucet... I'm not a big fan of Moen in general-- but that aside.... That Faucet is one of their "economy" lines and has a long history of giving trouble. I would suggest to you that the best solution would be to replace the faucet with a nice quality Delta, or equivelant-- Delta style and those that use the same parts such as many Peerless and others ARE VERY SIMPLE TO SERVICE, and the PARTS ARE PRETTY CHEAP AND ALWAYS AVAILABLE at Lowe's or Home Depot. Moen cartridges are expensive and can be hard to find the exact match as there are many models that look almost identical. You can get the part free from Moen, but that takes time and can be a hassel.Hope this helps, Let me know if you have further questions! Good Luck!

How to repair facet stem for glacier bay products
Theres not much you can do to repair the stem except replacing the small O-ring up inside. You can call Glacier Bay and ask for a new stem ( the faucet has a limited lifetime warranty. You can also use Delta faucet repair parts in your Glacier Bay kitchen faucet; they come from the same mold. Heres a link to

Glacier Bay faucet manual for your faucet.
Moen quick connect leaking under sink
you either do not have it seated all the way or you have damaged an o-ring anytime you are putting togethr parts with o-rings you should make sure and put stem grease on the o-rings to ensure not to cut or damage them. if you have damaged the o-ring instead of a whole new part you can take the o-ring out take it to your local hardware store and match it with a new one. dont forget the stem grease.
