Hi Bob;
I'm still not clear on something. Do the new Jetstreams require a small screwdriver to remove the round end-plate covering the exhaust diaphragm? I'm not sure whether your "...just crank off the housing" refers to separating the second stage from the hose, as with the hold hose, or removing the end-cap which, on the old seconds, was secured by four tiny screws.
Finally, has Posiedon done enything to reduce the Jetstreams vulnerability to getting crud under the exhaust diaphragm in the first place? The old end-cap had holes along the side of the cap which made it easy to get grit up under the diaphragm or have water pressure fold the diaphragm back. This design problem is one of the reasons Jetstream is not DIR.
Many thanks,
