John, Yes, what do you mean dry iced? I've got one well that isn't worth a damn since it was drilled in '54 and it is poking down into that huge ocean down there. It pumps 620GPM at best and steadily falls over the summer. By the time we shut it off, it is down around 500GPM or less. I have never understood why this thing had weak water production...it's the only pump in the country that is that way. In answer to your question about the $800: The well had to be lifted one joint because the coupler shafts are different on a 50hp than they are on a 30hp; hence, they had to be swapped out. I'd be interested to hear about this "dry iceing" thing you speak of. Allan
