Chris - have you ever had the pump cover off? It sounds like you might just have a loose pump screw - common with unimatics. Lay the machine in it's left side (so you don't pee oil out of the vent tube on the tranny), remove the cross-brace, support the mechanism (a gallon paint can works well) and remove the pump cover screws. Once you have removed the cover, you can see the bottom of the pump impeller and a slot-head screw in the center. This screw holds the pump impeller and the fan in place on the motor shaft - the impeller has a long "neck" that extends through the pump seal and cover and compresses against the fan to hold it tight. Remove the pump screw with a large screwdriver so as not to strip the head and put a few drops of Loctite on the threads. The pump impeller should be seated far enough up onto the fan to hold it tight.

Yes these fans do not wear out and I've never needed new one. The problem as Greg stated above is the pump impeller screw has to be extremely tight. Over the years it has loosened. Be sure to take the screw completely out and add some blue Loctite to the threads. Tightening the impeller screw will not break the carbon seal unless it is not seated properly, so make sure the four tangs off of the carbon seal are seated properly in the four channels in the center of the impeller. |

I think it's cause all of our screws are a little loose Chad (formerly exploder321) |
