[RE-wrenches] MQ Pump Problems

[jay peltz]

Hi  Ray,

I have been working at a site that just had  a problem, blown cap.

Cap was replaced lasted 4 hours.

Cap replaced again, now its really broken.  Seems to be electronic as  
when it did run the pump seemed to work.

Its out of warranty, just ordered a new one,
