Tony,

thanks for the info. So the MKIII pumps are a direct swap? Will be on my list for next wrecker's yard trip.

I purchased them from one of the guys on that nozzle thread that Alistair sent you. Some aspects of the installation can be a little dicey. Losing the tubing into the cavern is a huge possibility.
