Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What symptoms are commonly shown before replacing a flavor pump?

A: Flavor pump is making a weird sound like it's working “too hard” or flavor isn’t dispensing from the nozzle correctly. 

 

Q: I replaced the bib connector line leading to the pump, but flavor still isn't being dispensed, what do I do now?

A: Check the tubing inside the pump. It's possible that the line is gummed up and you need to replace it.
