Hi Al,

The 3.5 hours sounds right.  I had to have mine replaced during the 
convention last year and that is what they said also.  I have to dig back in 
the papers and look, but I can let you know exactly what they replaced.  I 
believe it was the assembly.  I had just had the part replaced a month 
before where I live.

Is the part you had put in new, used, or rebuilt?  My suggestion is to not 
go with a used one.  Your system may have a leak in it, or maybe cannot 
handle the stronger pressure from the replacement?  I am guessing here.

I will get back to you on what all was done to mine.  It was on my '93 ATX 
BTW.
