[QUOTE="Ditherer and Son, post: 7157, member: 394"] We also use a $150 chinese 5.5HP 2" pump from ebay, and yes, I too got caught with the oil level. Mid way through the 2nd morning it ran out of oil that shipped with it. I had to make a dash into Orange for some oil and it started up again perfectly without any hint of a problem. Itg probably had scored bores and disintegrating piston rings by that stage, but it worked and produced a very steady stream. We ran this pump just above idle for the majority of the time. God bless ebay I say! [/QUOTE]
