Mine started to leak under pressure a couple weeks ago , i know i'm going electric, the price is too close and it saves a little power. at least thats what i heard

A brand new GM pump is ~$140 wholesale. GM PART # 12527741

Jason set me up with the new GM unit for $140 shipped. I'll sleep better on those nights when the Wife pisses me off and I go driving around until I need to sleep, and I park in a Wal-Mart parking lot somewhere with the car running and the AC on. For those nice summer nights I have a one-man popup tent that I sleep in.

Was that too much information???

WOW! I thought that I was the only person that had this kind of luck....
