Just fyi, the BBB is nothing but a crock of $hit. A business only has to "join" (re: pay them hush money) to prevent any action against the business. We have a local roofing company that has a 35% unsatisfactory rating by BBB complaints, yet is given a "good" rating by the BBB. Much like a steer, not good for much other than hamburger and fertilizer!

OK.....

The 42000 lb lawn ornament lives! I have finally been able to replace the seals in the air solenoid and ably aided br Mr. Colin "skinny fellow wanderlodge owner" got it bolted back on the pump. Colin seems to work better upside down in a hole......(it actually got much easier after we figured out that removing the Turbo pipe was a good idea)

Brroooom.....It' alive, alive!! - no leaks and everything working perfectly. Took it for a good ride, filled the Diesel tank while we were at it, - and all is again well with the world.

Last week we took the air solenoid apart (again), measured everything in minute detail, and then ordered a new set of spiffy "Octoring" o rings from "American High Performance Seals" - and they really came through with the goods. The seals really work well, and they were extremely helpful in analysing my needs. I recommend them - ask For John.

Thanks to all on the group for the support and advice throughout this marathon.....

Yippee!

That's outstanding to hear you've finally gotten it fixed! Best of all, you did it yourself! You're smarter and more capable than everybody you sent the pump to!! Congratulations!!!
