Thanks Mike B. Great advice. Lehman's seems like a great store and it looks like they will have correct size leathers for my pump. I'm also intrigued by their "mole windmills". This is new to me. I'm perpetually fighting a losing battle with pocket gophers and may give this a try. Thanks again!

I have heard that thoses little "flower spinners" that are yellow, chase them away. The vibration or something. I really have no idea. I get rid of gophers another way.
Call Dan Benjamin for parts. P M me for the phone number. IF YOU TALK TO HIM, AND HE HELPS YOU, THEN BUY FROM HIM. IT CREATES GOOD KARMA.

Is this the correct color? It looks too brown and too glossy for an Aermotor to me. I used Rust-Oleum Farm and Implement.

John once it dries it should loose it's gloss. Also make sure you stir it real good before using.
