ShurFlo 5.7

[Donald Spithaler]

It was the one in Indiana. IF you do call be sure to get the persons name you talked to. I had to end up making two call as the first women that I talked to didn't follow up on it & a week later I had to call again & go through the same thing with someone else. I'll look in the blue box tomorrow if you don't have the number.

Don,

What number did you call to get to Shurflo? My sensor started

leaking and I put a smaller pump in till I can get the 5.7 repaired.
