[C320-list] Shurflo 2088 water pump

[Jeffrey Brown]

Thanks Brian. After I pulled out the old pump (24 years old) I discovered the negative wire broke free and that was causing the problem. Since I had the whole thing off I decided to replace the pump and now she’s working great. I figured a 24 year life was enough for the old one.
