I have this exact model in my home garage. After five hours, the contacts on the electric motor fried and the bakelite endcap exploded in a bunch of pieces. It cost me $185 to fix and I was told I would have no further problems. With 11 hours on it, the motor caught fire and almost burned my garage down.
It's not the pump that is the problem, it is the Baldor/Reliance electric motor. Proceed with caution.
