Thanks! for all the responses. All were similar in what I should look for. Will look into it over the weekend and hopefully fix. Is the relay something that is readily available from local auto parts? Will this be hard to find?? Will keep you posted. One more question-Is there an easy way to adjust valves? Is this a two person job? Again "THANKS" responses were greatly appreciated!
