  Well, well, well....the injector pump EMPIRE
shows up again.  Does ANYONE know how
it works?

  On mine, the knob is connected to a shaft that
descends half-way down to the boss in the side of
the boiler.  It does not go up or down (I did not
ham-fist it) which I think is how it should work.
It will twist around quite easily but that is not
the answer.  A thin stiff rod will go up from the
bottom and meet at the boss, and maybe I could
give it a tap to see if it loosens the rod that I think
should go up and down....but I don't have the
nerve.

Thanks,
Wayne
