REFLECTOR: Hydraulic Pump Leak

[Greg Poole]

Suck it and see Pat!...if you're game! ;^)
-but seriously....would have thought sealing vents would really screw up 
things when the pump calls for fluid to do it's job! ...and can you imagine 
the mess when fluid is returned and the pressure has nowhere to go! 
....Nope, will leave that one to the real extreme experimenters amongst us!
