    Vilco Supply

    Vilco has had three of my pumps for 6 to 9 months I think. I have always had good luck in the past. He told me he had a health problem and was slowly returning to work but has no way of telling me when he would get to my Pumps.

    Proper Gauge wire for 3 motor vacs

    I agree with others it is wrong to put a 12 gauge wire on a 30 amp breaker. That being said it will work and you do still have some protection on the wire. Unlikely to cause a problem.

    High pressure system

    usually there's a transformer in the box with the motor starter. See if it's the same temperature as the others by feeling it with the back of your hand. Then a volt meter. Parts go bad and almost never the wire is bad.
