Dad called them to diagnose the system, not just "look at the vacuum pump" Unbeknownst to me they've been having vacuum issues for just about the whole summer. Otherwise I would have looked at it sooner. I help in the fields year round, but I may only milk 2-3 times in a year. Their farm, I'm the help.
