Well that pump just went out. The problem was the fact that the gun was clogged, and it ran just long enough to mess up the pump. Thanks for your help, Creekview

No one does maintenance but me and I haven't touched this pump for 3 months. The only thing that has changed it that it has gotten colder.

Cat Pump blowing oil from relief cap on top I've had my weep on these last days when it was freezing and all my bays are okay except for the 2nd one away from my building. I turned it on today and nothing came out of the hoses. I could feel the pressure building in the hose. When I went inside...

Okay I took that solenoid and put in on a bay that was working and it didn't work. That should be the samething am I correct? Creekview

It was the last solenoid in line, so wouldn't any of the other solenoids had a problem? Creekview Yes it was 24 volt and yes I saw and smelled smoke.

Cat pump Well, I've cross tested all parts on a different pump that works The only part that didn't work was the solenoid. I don't check to see if the assembly was correct so I guess I'll do that now. I couldn't feel any magnetic pull and since I didn't want to reassemble everything to do...

Your right I switched the solenoid unit to a different pump and had the same problem. I took it apart and there is just what looks like a small blue donut with two wires coming out of it. So I'm guessing that it can't be fixed it has to be replaced. Thank you for your help, Creekview

Up Date Update I switched the hoses from bay 6 (the one I am having problems with) to bay 4 coming from the hot water solenoid in the back. Bay 6 started to work and bay 4 stopped working. So now I'm looking at the ball valve not working or the solenoid not working. any input? Thanks, Creekview

The pump was working bad before I rebuilt it. It was putting out very little pressure. I also rebuilt the two valves in the back. Yesterday I put that same soap hose on a different bay and the pressure was fine. All other products come out fine. Creekview

I have 6 bays and I am only having trouble with that one bay. The fitting attached to the hose line that draws the soap is missing one screw. I found it today and I was wondering if it was allowing it to draw air. Thank you for your help, Creekview

I just rebuilt one of my cat pumps and it works great on rinse but when the soap us turned on it loses pressure. You can feel the pressure building but when you pull the trigger on the gun the pressure is gone. I think it is a problem in the inlet side but I'm not really sure can anyone steer...

I am using Scotch Plaid product, and please define set up right.

Define set up properly

My basic question is are there chemicals at will work better in that short of distance? Juan
