This is the one I replaced it with: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXUU50

They sell cheap pinion removal tools on ebay. Only way you can get that gear off without damaging it. I think I picked up a universal one for around $5.00. I switched out the rusted out motor on mine as well.

Lil ol me....

In Great Shape, Works Well, comes with two sets of trip dogs. Make offer! I don't want to throw it away.

Have 3 of these. PM me for details

Sorry it took me a bit but I had to order one as well. This is what Watertech sent me: To those customers who have requested to purchase a New 7 or 8 Cell Battery Pack (Only) for a Pool Blaster / Buster Max Water Tech is providing the link to make such purchase. The customer understands and...

In the process of building about 1000 square feet of deck around my pool and patio. Needed flashing that looked good and DeckExpressions have the perfect ones. Not to mention hidden fastener systems at good prices. Customer service is excellent. Highly recommend them.

I live in Tulsa as well, our 13000 gal pool is in direct sunlight all day long, after the first two weeks of having a solar cover on, we are at a comfortable 84-86 degrees. Running the pump at night with the fountain attached usually keeps it below 90. Don't use the solar cover anymore.

Me three! Just did chicken the other night. Perfect every time.

:party: One of the first things I did after I got the BBB down pat. Everyone that jumps in always says that when they get out their skin doesn't feel dry or "poolish". Makes the wifey happy, which makes me happy. :lol:

Partially covering might warm it a bit but it wont help with the evaporation at night. Why not get two covers? Both oversized and just cut to fit, that way you can keep one on and one off. I don't recommend that though as that can be a potential drowning hazard. I did that with my solar...

Thanks guys. Yeah took my time and even used purple primer. Couldn't find any clear. I didn't have room for a full union on the valve to pump inlet but I did use two threaded bushings so if I ever have to replace the pump I won't booger up a good Jandy valve. I need to do something about the...

Okay. finished, well except for hooking up the Liquidator. Had to compromise a bit due to space constraints. [attachment=1:oisud4um]newequip1.jpg[/attachment:oisud4um] [attachment=0:oisud4um]newequip2.jpg[/attachment:oisud4um] All 2" line above ground now. Glad thats done. Whew...

Yeah, lots of constraints with this small pad and where it is located. I was starting last night based upon Wastes recommendations and let me tell you, putting my shoulder into that filter now that waters been pumped through? I'm not a small man but HOLY HEAVY SAND BATMAN! Then the wifey comes...

Yeah its 1.5" and the multi has 2" and Im gonna do the 2" all around. So basically its a clear shot to the multi from the pump we want, the discharge/return doesnt really matter?

Yeah that would work - except it would put the multi up against the wall. Where that stone is on the bottom of the pic is the exterior wall of my garage. I guess that wouldnt be that big of an issue.

The pump inlet on the multiport would then be on the left side away from the pump if I turned my filter 90 degrees clockwise. Hmmm, you have given me a few things to consider. Can I do anything about that fiberglass? It is an old filter, I'd like to paint it but would it be helpful to...

Here you go. Yes its ugly. [attachment=0:3gdwx8l0]topequipment.jpg[/attachment:3gdwx8l0]

:-D Yeah, it bugs me everytime I look at it. Plus whenever I need to get at the strainer basket I skin my knuckles on the pipe right near it. Im not worried about the flowmeter as Im going to do something with it. What about flex pvc line from the pump into the valve? The thing Im...

I got tired of the line bending under the weight of water and pinching the tube so I upgraded the upgrade! [attachment=0:23syo3je]liquidatorelbow.jpg[/attachment:23syo3je] Its a threaded elbow part #29101 1/4" 90° CPVC Threaded Pipe Elbow from US Plastics. Strain is gone!

I went ahead and decided to upgrade my valve to a MVP but I need a bit of advice on how to run the plumbing. I have a few thoughts but thought I'd get some input. Heres my existing pad: [attachment=0:1qenocgn]equipmentpad.jpg[/attachment:1qenocgn] I hate how they have the pump line wrapping...

Lucky for me the pool came with the house we bought so I didnt have to shell out the dough. Yeah, I've said that a few times. Wasn't pretty.

man, cant even catch a break in here! Wifey last evening: "there are some leaves in there, you going to get those out?" :hammer:

Speaking of management, pool numbers: FC: 5 - liquidator up and running. CC: 0 TC: 5 - measured after 24 hour pump run. TA: 70 Ph: 8.2 - YIKES! CH: 350 CYA: 20 Borates: 30 Temp: 70 degrees all in all Im very happy at those numbers.
