Where is it getting hot? The heak sinks get pretty hot as well as the transformer part where the power cord goes into. Well at least that is the case on my Snapper and Dart pumps.

Next time you're by Rich, I'll show you the Dart at the back. You can compare it to your pump. It's decently hot around the motor housing.
