HP pump.

I finished the HP pump yesterday.

First bad sign, no grease in the bearing. An O ring failed and the fluid rinsed out the grease.


The pump was extremely dirty inside with some kind of varnish looking like and feeling like epoxy glue.


I received a NOS bearing from Dave Burnham. These bearings are rare to come by; it is possible to purchase kits now with a different bearing and a ring to adapt the shaft to the bearing.


I always test the pump before going any further (between 2000 psi and 2500 psi).


Before installing the tank I saw the intake off to remove the bulge.
