First 24 hours with no clog issues on the cutterhead

Spent 4 years on this old Ellicott machine. Always fighting sand clogs every shift. Last week we swapped out the old pump impeller. Ran a full 24 hour cycle yesterday without one single jam. Felt like winning the lottery. Anyone else had a simple part swap fix a constant headache?

Had a buddy swear his whole rig was haunted until he swapped out a single gasket. Turned into a whole different machine overnight. Sometimes it's the smallest things that mess with your flow.

Bet the ghost in that gasket was just air getting past where it shouldn't, @barbara_hall9. Funny how a tiny leak can make a whole system act possessed.
