Some outstanding forum member sold me a pump for $50 bucks, and it worked like a charm. I can't remember who it was [sorry ], but they really did me a solid! They also pop up on ebay from time to time, and seem to go +/- in the $100 buck range, usually slightly less.
Make sure it isn't the hose or the crush washers at the pump.
I believe that was me
