: Order direct to get the Bosworth foot pump with a lighter (20 pound) spring.
: Last fall, I ordered a Guzzler 400-S Foot Pump with a lighter spring from
: Bosworth. They were very responsive, and I received the order within 10
: days. The pump cost $52.60 and shipping from Rhode Island to Seattle cost
: me about $7.00 for the pump and a strainer.

: Go to Bosworth's Web site and check out the products before you call. They
: make a variety of end connections for the Guzzler pumps, with internal and
: external threading if you want to connect your pump to a rigid intake and
: output system. Bosworth also makes some very nce reinforced hose that you
: might consider at least for the intake side of your system. I found the
: Bosworth at a local marine supply store for about $2.00/ft. I haven't seen
: the foot pump with a lighter spring available at local stores, though I'm
: sure a local store could order it for you.

Thanks Jim!!! That is just what I was hoping for. I had heard that the guzzler 400 had a spring that was way too strong for our use and really wanted the option of a lighter spring. Plus they have other options that i am checking out. Thanks again, now I can have time to pick out and order what I want and have it here by the time I am ready to install it.
