Tales from Jabunyaville
About five days ago I "blogged" on replacement parts.....
Well the "Parts God" hit me with a lightening bolt and
a clogged kitchen sink line became the main prioity in
the Pump's household......
Did you know that 1-1/2 inch pvc piping manufactured
in 1980 does not match 1-1/2 inch pvc piping made in
2005....Is not an 1-1/2 always an 1-1/2?.......NO
Tooling, molding and manufacturing designs have changed
in 25 years.....I pity the poor "Do It Yourselver" (known
as a DYI in the home industry) who tries to match two
parts knowing that the olde parts fit slightly differently
than the new.....First wife question, "Are you sure you
bought the right parts?"......
What is "standard", what is "adaptable"?.....When all else
fails call in the "professional"......Wife retorts, "See I told
you so!"........Pumps
