[Rockhounds] Re: DP Genie parts

Oiling only goes so far. If it's that far gone (water in the line), 
then the rubber seals are shot. I oil mine regularly and have 
replaced the seals, leathers and belt twice. Parts wear out, 
especially rubber and leather parts operating at relatively high 
speeds, under wet conditions, especially with heavy use. The DP 
repair kit is worth every penny.
