I returned the pump to the shop. They tried it and found out that there must
be something wrong with the pump head. So they change the hose including a
new valve head. The new one is different (better since I can change the
gaskets).

Thanks for the replies.


I have a two year old TPS-2 that had a blowout in the hose. The whole shebang only cost 20 or 30 dollars new and I could only find a hose and pump head unit online for 13.50, more or less, before shipping. I like the dual head and would replace it if the price were reasonable. I Googled and searched Yahoo and was disappointed in what I found, so I just bought another pump. My shop was not helpful, saying they can't come out stocking pump parts, so I went somewhere else and bought the pump. Is there a better source for pump parts?
