Maybe I got lucky, 150+ hrs on the CPS pump rebuild kit and no problems. Now where
the heck is a good piece of wood to knock on when you need one...

A yearly rebuild sounded a bit much, but after doing some googling and asking others on field it sounds like most people either rebuild their pumps annualy/biannually, or they have two pumps just to swap when necessary. In fact Mike Stratman (CPS) recommends an inspection at 150 hr, and an overhaul at least every 2 years (http://www.800-airwolf.com/pdffiles/ARTICLES/part%2053.PDF).
Seems like a really important piece of equipment to be such a weak link. I'll
order my rebuild kit tonight and see how it goes. Probably really consider adding
an electric back-up too.
