It is amazing as to how much pressure that little pump in the A-type can
generate..... I wound out an 800 lb gauge before I could shut it down!!

PS. It will also BEND parts in the overdrive if it does this..... Ouch!

You too, huh?  Just to expand a bit, make sure there is enough travel before
coil bind to fully uncover the relief hole (or holes).  The pressure was
fine on the bench ...
