Not to kill a sale ... but Rio's are known for meltdowns , they leak oil into the water,and arent worth the risk. Just a little food for thought

No worries...I was not going to sell it anyway (I was offering it as a fill-in until he got what he wanted). This pump is a few years old and works fine...have been using it for quite some time to mix salt.

i do believe those are the old style Rio pumps. They havnt use oil in there Rio Plus pumps for some time now.
