Hello, my old pump is a pentair pinnacle P/N 342853. Serial No.0309311060009W. The motor is 3/4 HP, FR P56Y, type CX, Form KJM. Serial CB 07-28. Part 7-186236-20. RPM 3450. Cust. P/N 75232. You told me the replacement motor is A.O. Smith B2852. Since I cannot take out the old impeller and therefore, the pump plate too. What is the impeller and pump seal plate parts numbers for the A.O.

on a Pinnacle PFII-P1 1-21-E01 / 34-2853do I is the impeller 'screwed on the motor shaft' with 'left-handed' thread? and HOW do I unscrew it to replace the gasket behind the impeller? What do i hold on to to unscrew it?

Hello Seikhaus, yes these impeller screws reverse thread to the motor shaft. You will want to hold the shaft steady at the end/back of the motor where it is squared using a wrench. Here is our "How to replace a pool pump motor" general guide that should offer some clarity with that.
