How about this.

How long would it take you to do this repair? Think I will go to Sandy Eggo March 8th for a week. So I could have Vater pull it repair time, plus a week to be sure of it being done, pack and ship. Then on the eight put it in and see what is what, rather than pulling it now and having it sit. If need be, run some wires if the pump then doesn't work. Good idea?


Thank you so very much!
