i overtightened the fitting going into my mag 9.5 and it cracked. can i order a new faceplate type thing that has the fittings on it? i know it comes right off with those screws but dont know where to find just that part. thanks

I have cracked my share of faceplates on Mag pumps so I now attach a stainless steel worm clamp to the input to the pump. This will keep the input from cracking when attaching a male pipe fitting.

I cracked mine. I put some superglue into the crack and slapped a worm clamp to it. Doesn't leak a bit.

is a worm clamp a hose clamp? i will definitely do that with my new one that i ordered.
