Maybe you had a Cali special 85... They had an IP that used the 33 tooth spline socket for the DV's. The 6 point hex socket DV's use the other procedure. -- John W Reames jwrea...@comcast.net Home: +14106646986 Mobile: +14437915905 On Mar 12, 2010, at 7:44, "Dillon, Meade M CIV SPAWARSYSCEN

There is a difference between the pumps where the DV's screw into steel pieces and the ones where they screw directly into the aluminium pump body. -- John W Reames jwrea...@comcast.net Home: +14106646986 Mobile: +14437915905 On Mar 12, 2010, at 7:44, "Dillon, Meade M CIV SPAWARSYSCEN-ATLA
