Ira, Thanks. I tried a variety of configurations, including just testing the pump stand-alone, and it doesn't pump. Maybe it's a priming issue, but I made sure the input hose was full, so I'm thinking that ought to be enough. The coil springs inside the pump jumped out when I took it apart, so I wonder if I have 'em the right way around, and if I'm missing any parts. Here's how I'm putting it together: http://public.mvlan.net/content/Coffee/Equipment/Expobar%20Brewtus%20II/20081226%20-%20Pump%20Problem/info/640/20081226-113902-lx2-40166.jpg js. -- Jean-Sebastien Morisset, Sr. UNIX Administrator <[email protected]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Brewtus" group.
