Ohhh, I didn�t know that, thanks anyway for the info. So you�re saying the little giant is not a quiet pump? I think it is pretty quiet, the problem is the venturi of the ps.

I disagree marco, not "all" pumps require oil. and I dont think the iwaki do. I know mags, and quiet ones do not need any oil. hth dave ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marco Delsordo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, September 24, 2001 10:13 PM Subject: RE: Oil? all pumps require every 3-6 months some oil so the impeller can work correctly and don�t stuck. I recommed you vortex oil, which is intended for this purpose. THe problem is that i don�t know where in the pump you must add it, but probably in the top of the pump there are some little holes. And as a matter of fact, my little giant has 2 little holes, but i still don�t know in which one should I add the oil, can anyone tell me in which one?? Marco By the way, I�m back and I didn�t brought any algae nor fishes, as i was to exhausted to dive for some. So I didn�t commit any "crime"!!!! -----Original Message----- From: Shane Clays [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Lunes, 24 de Septiembre de 2001 02:51 p.m. To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Oil? All, I was lucky enough to purchase the main pump to my set up cheaply. Very cheaply, because it was used. Only problem is the guy who sold it to me did not have any owners manuals on it, and did not have any idea what type of maintanence the pump takes. The pump is an Iwaki 100 RLT. It has started to make a weird sort of vibration type sound. My question is, do these pumps require any type of oiling and if so, how often?? TIA!
