Couple of days ago a post was about prices charged at pump shops. Monday a fella called me about a Roosa pump off a Oliver 550. He took it to a local pump shop because the drive had sheared. They told him 1500 bucks! He sent me the pump hoping for some relief. First thing I noticed was the pump still had the safety wire and red paint stick markings. This means it was never disassembled. I pulled it down to find a broken leaf spring and bad drive shaft. Pump had been updated to the solid weight assembly, new pilot tube, and metering valve. The head was fine. 610 denarrows and this guy is back up and running, shipping included. How could these pump guys sleep at night or look themselves in the mirror after that? They told him this pump was torn down, then put back together unrepairable. Charge him for that. Then tell him it will cost 1500 to replace it. Doing business like that gives pump shops a bad name. No wonder some guys hesitate if they have pump trouble. Al

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
