CAT PUMPS

[Zal]

Hey Pump experts, what are blue dot seals in cat pumps?
Thanks!

Piston pumps have a choice between Prrrm-a-Lube seals and blue dot seals. They both keep the water from coming out the rear manifold. Blue dot seals need the wicks in place and need to be oiled once a month. Prrrm-a-Lube seals do not.

Thanks MEP,
Any Preference or use what it came with?

I use the PRRRM-a-Lube because the "maintenance" guy at the one wash I service that has 623's doesn't do his job.

Surely you don’t mind giving him an ass chewing?

If he was my employee I would have fired him ten years ago.
