to do this I amd figuring the max pressure out of what ever pump I use has to be adjusted to about 2PSI which I don't think is going to be enough to index your unit. I don't know how big the ports are or anything and how much it moves when it does index, or are you talking about one of the motorized ones with a double barrel?

a super squirt stacked would be a good size but will the motor be strong enough to turn two barrels?

This is the motorized unit,




this is the 1 1\2" unit with just 4 ports, the previous pics are for the 8 port unit, I will host a pic when I get back down to the shop.
