I know there is lots of post on here talking about cooling surge vacuum pumps but non are specifically answering my questions! How do keep these things cool? I have ran a surge 75 plus for two years. Last year just starting out with vacuum I used the drippers but one pluged frying the pump and seizing it. So this year I tried "flooding it with as much oil as it wanted (fuel line going to each bearing) but it didn't work as it just blew the oil right out the exhaust! So I played with it more but no luck. I went back to drippers and worked until yesterday when one pluged and I was left with another seized pump which was rebuilt in the winter! I picked up a surge 100 this morning from a guy and need to know how to run this thing with out ruining it! I'm getting frustrated and expenses are adding up. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks in advance
