Perry,

   I asked the question as a safety issue as the metering pumps I am most familar

with are the early 12A-13B versions that are spring loaded closed if my memory

does not fail me. I just presumed you were useing an early pump. Perhaps I need

to refresh my memory and take another look at one of my pumps.

 

Kelly
