bronze shavings in the tank
so; i dropped the tank today to start the AD150 install. after taking the basket apart i noticed a substantial ammount of crap laying in the basket so i decided to take a look at how dirty the tank was. suprisingly clean except for bronze shavings. any ideas? i'm hoping it isnt IP internals.

bump... i've been inside a rotary pump before but i dont really recall any brass parts. no idea where else the shavings would have come from... unless its something from the stock lift pump... i replaced it when i first got the truck so who knows.... i'd just like a heads up if the my IP might be going on its way out. i guess if there's brass layin in the pump when i crack it loose for the 366 spring then i'll know.
