Is your pump mounted at the AC condenser where SMC recommends, or elsewhere? Are you using his original pump or the newer one?

Yes, that is where I have my pump set up. I am going to try to re locate the whole unit somewhere else and see what happens.
I will say, that when the pump died before, SMC fixed the problem no questions asked. The system works really well, I just dont think the pump holds up too well in extreme temps. And I am almost 100% positive that the problems I am having are caused by heat. For example, on Friday last week (when it was over 100 degrees outside) the pump worked fine when I first ran the car, everything worked. After some driving in the heat the pump quit. I lifted the hood, and felt the pump, and it was extremely hot. Once I shut the car off and let things cool off quite a bit, the pump worked fine. OH, P.S I WAS RUNNING THE A/C IN THE CAR THAT DAY. Maybe that had something to do with the excessive heat to the pump.
