Another question arose while I was tinkering with this pump. Bolting the skins to the upper and lower base is no problem, but how do you bolt the skins together along the two vertical seams? Once the skins are on, you cant reach 5ā up from the bottom and hold a nut??? Most pumps I have dealt with have the little tabs on the outside that you just bolt together. This pump has holes drilled through one skin and into the other skins recessed holes. (This one is tough to explain, unless you know what Iām talking about).
Steve--One side of the skins should have a flat strap welded along the length of the inside of the skin , and it should have drilled and tapped holes to accept the screws that hold the 2 skin sections together.
Call me if you have any questions, as I have had several of these and had several apart.--KEVIN
