Have you tried defrosting it? lol Seriously though, the meat and potato's of that pump is the mechanism in the middle of the pump. (Black box area). Try shooting some wd -40 into the inlet side of the line. It's probably just stuck. If not the replacement part for the whole piece is only about $30.00

I hope it works again, good thing you have a back up at least. Let us know what works for ya.

Ok guys I sprayed WD- 40 in my froze up All-Flo pump, yes everything is working, hose is good, hose reel swivel everything, thanks guys

you know any other time I would of thought of spraying WD- 40  in the pump, but this time I assumed the frozen water in the pump broke it, so It's the good thing I posted because I getting ready to swap it out a new one,

 Your welcome!!!

Let me tell you those ALL-Flo pumps are indetructible, I was so pizzed off when my stuff was frozen up that I even beat the pump with a big wrench, I figured it was ruined any way, and I had a brand new one sitting on the shelf, the one that I won, ha ha

I guess that means you aren't gonna send the pump to me for proper "disposal"?

Want to see what its like to run with big dogs. About to buy a 17.5 cfm air compressor on one of my super deals, like my pressure washer. That ought to make it pump, huh??

 Gary is that bigger than the Rigid dual tank compressor?

I think the rigids are around 9-10 cfm with about 8 gallon tanks. What I'm looking at is 17.5 cfm with a 60 gallon tank,  BIG & Cheap.

That's what you want guys, a BIG Azz air compressor. Honestly, the Rigid's are marginal for any pump 1/2 or larger.  Yes, I ran the 1/2 Yamada with a Rigid for years, but until I accidentally used a larger compressor, did not know what I was missing.

Stalling is MUCH less of a problem as well, now that we have a big compressor.

I run a 1 inch Wilden Hastelloy/Teflon pump with a 13hp Compressor, and it has NEVER ever stalled, ever.
