Jake Thanks!

Funny thing I used peel ply and I made a perforated bleed sheet out of 4 mil plastic that I was going to put over the peel ply - but we got so tied up in the moment that we put the felt right on the peel ply and forgot the 4 mil bleed sheet. It was a tug to get the peel ply off because the felt sucked up some resin, like it should, and stuck to the peel ply.

I was testing the pump and showing Craig how it worked when I was done I turned off the pump with a vacuum on the pump but had the valve open. It siphoned the oil out of the pump and into the manifold. I had to vacuum the oil back to the pump. I added some oil then and recovered some more. With the tube on the exhaust it spit a little oil, with the tube off it smoked. I used tropical slow hardener and let the pump suck for about 4 hours.
