gregative 18 Report post Posted February 9, 2008 Has anyone else had problems with the wiring/contact going into their sureflo. I am on my second one. Both work but after a while I have to have someone else jigling the wire to keep it going. Not a big deal just a pain in the butt. Didn't know if it was a design flaw or something.

Apple Roof Cleaning 202 Report post Posted February 10, 2008 I was unaware people still used the Shurflo's ? Most have switched over to the new Delevans for roof cleaning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jakeman 14 Report post Posted February 11, 2008 Yes I have had the same problem with my last 2 shurflo pumps. I think I will try soldering the wire to the pump. Has anyone else tried this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Russ Johnson 141 Report post Posted February 11, 2008 I have replaced many of the microswitches on the ShurFlo pumps. In my opinion, the switch is too small to handle the amperage of the motor. I have started using a 30 amp relay, and use the micro to activate the relay. The relay handles all the amp draw from the motor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gregative 18 Report post Posted February 11, 2008 I'm not familiar with a Delevan. I only use the sureflow to apply degreaser on fleetwork. Have never touched a roof but might one day to try out some easy work.:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
