Anyone want a leaky washer drain pump?

Anyone want a leaky washer drain pump?

I'm a bit surprised at the so-so construction of the guts of my mid-range front-loading washing machine.  The drain filter is basically a cup with holes -- which means that debris can get into the plastic pump easily.  Oh and getting to these parts requires removing 18 screws and three rubber retaining clamps which means no-one ever cleans the filter.

At least I replaced the spring-clamps with proper hose clamps on the new pump.
