Have a resun 4f that has served me well for 2+ years, has been humming a little and now overloads and cuts out, resets after 5 minutes or so but only runs for a minute, have taken out impeller and seems clean, stupid question with an obvious answer I suppose, but maybe someone has rescued one

Ive used resun's for years , they seem to power on for ages and take alot of abuse , then once there's the slightest wierd noise in em or difference in power they tend to go downhill pretty quick

tried to fix two so far, only managed to make it worse

if it hums and overloads try re-sealing the ring around where the power cord goes in, or just let it really dry out then silicon around it

Go out to Rick's and get it Nocky - if he drops it off to you, he may see his blue barrel you've still got. Only a few more years an you can claim it as yours under common law :lol:

I wonder if he would forget to charge me if I bought a new green coloured tractor with a front end loader that doesn't leak oil, and has an air conditioned cab, and quick attach three point linkage........

Perhaps I had better remember to pick up my pump in a weeks time. Then I could throw on my blue drum and get the keys for the new tractor.
