i've had this skimmer for a loooong time. and lately the pump keeps stopping, i took it apart and noticed that the shaft is rusted on the ends where the grommets fit on.
i *think* the pump, was an old rio (600 maybe?).....the label tore off years ago. the pump is very old and worn down......so i figure best to just replace the pump.
i see the new CPR models use the MJ1200.......but in attempt to improve skimmer performance 2 years ago.....i thought the MJ1200 sucked compared to the rio.....and i've also heard others say the same thing.
i see this new Accela pump being advertised for use with the CPR backpack......anyone know anything about it, or have any other suggestion?
