The starting load on a centrifugal pump isn't nearly as bad as on a piston pump. But your problem sounds like it could be a bad cap. I'd think, though, that you'd hear humming/buzzing because the running winding will be getting full current without the back-EMF it gets while spinning, and so would be drawing a lot more current than normal. Squealing is not normal, and would indicate bad bearings. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
