Re: crankcase evac

I guess I jumped the gun by posting what I had found last night. I tested this pump out this afternoon, and within about 10 minutes of running time in my shop, the motor on this pump started smoking. The rubber boot that covers the motor was very warm, along with the exhaust hose coming from the pump. I added some holes in the rubber boot, thinking that they would help keep the motor cool, but evidently not.
I plan on trying the exhaust pan-evac setup again, this time possibly locating the welded nipples after the mufflers. We'll see what happens...
