[Rhodes22-list] motor with prostate problem

[TN Rhodey]

Joe, Sorry to hear of your loss. We went through the same last summer.
Remember the good times.

OB - If you have already checked for blockage it sounds like you need a new
impeller pump. Not to hard if you have a good manual. If not a good shop can
fix easy.

Good luck,

Wally
