    Well, been too busy between work and the move so I had my shop so it. Since their price was so good I had them install the new pump with actuator.

    Thanks Joegr and Meecer, I checked and I can get the Actuator with the pump ($270 with tax at local dealer). Will clean it and flush system first and see if that doesn't do the trick.
