I'm thinking I'm going to go electrical the mechanical s seem to be a week link in the kohler engine as I already experienced in my 1811. All though I received great advise on pumps I'm going to go this route its in stock and close by. http://images.oreillyauto.com/parts/...g/42s_pack.jpg When I get the electric installed i'll do an update with pictures Once again thank you guys for great advise
What is the psi rating on that pump?
