[SEL] Water Needle valve on a "M"

[Richard Strobel]

There ya go Ray.  This 1.5 hp has what looks like old style zerk grease gun 
fittings.  They look OEM and according to John H., they did come with zerks.

  John, appreciate the time and trouble spent coming up with and editing the 
pix's.  Thanks much and I'm sure Cork will feel the same way.

Take Care Guys,
Rick
