That's it. Depends on the pump. If it's a diaphragm type, it may suffer from the same issue as the original diaphragm. Otherwise, I'd say it's a matter of personal preference. There can be problems

Hard to say, Paul. I searched TRF's data base, and the only "baffle plate" I could find was for an MG. Assuming you are talking about Moss 802-650, there are actually two different seals that attach

Not likely to help, since the parts must be separated to get a decent plating job. The photo idea sounds much better to me ... if worst comes to worst, the foreman can send someone into the plant sa
