Franklin Ampico Doesn't Play
By Bob and Sonja Lemon

Dan Copeland asks why his Ampico won't play.  This is an easy one for
us because we purchased a Franklin Ampico several years ago with this
same problem.  As it turns out, metal tubes coming from the pump to the
expression units were shoved into the pump shut off box until the ends
met each other effectively sealing off the pump!

Dan might check these tubes.  Pull them out a short distance and try
to play the Ampico.  No guarantees, but give it a try.
