    Problems with Flojet G57 Pumps

    With the one that pumps but no flow, cut the air off to the pump, drop the outlet line and then turn the air on and see if any flow occurs. I've had this happen before. It seems to be an air lock or something.

    what oil for cat pumps

    Chevron Turbine Oil ISOGST100. Get from your chevron dealer in five gallon buckets. About the same price as oil for your car. I`ve ben using this since the first oil was taken out of the pumps and some of the pumps are over 25 years old without any bearing problems.
