Customer has a Jandy Stealth 2.0 - motor went out this week. So he decides to upgrade to the Stealth 2.0-2speed. I get it, have is set-up on my bench next to the original pump. Excellent! The ports line-up exactly (for those that aren't familiar, this pump has these really cool fittings on it that make pulling the pump a breeze).
Then, I'll be d***ed.
The threads are different on the pumps ports - same location, same style fitting, different thread.
Now how stupid is that? I've got to cut-up the old PVC anyway (when it should have been a direct drop-in). And, there's almost NO slack in the older PVC, so I may be looking at a significant re-plumb of the pad.
Sorry, needed to Rant - Jandy wasn't any help either.
