Bottom line: We're back to square ONE. Where are these pumps anyway???? I've never seen one. I only know of ONE pump owned by a man up in New Jerssee or maybe it Pennsyltucky. THis recent PI pump owned by Patgreen is the first PI pump.

I have a PI pump but since this discussion didn't happen 15 yrs ago, didn't take it apart to see what was done. At the time it was installed, it was supposed to be the fix. As I recall, the plate is thicker than the 56J pump but that's about all I can remember.

If patgreens is examined, maybe we will know. I bought one of Craig's original kits but hadn't planned on putting it in anytime soon. If a PI pump doesn't surface, then may consider the change after the other projects.
