I don't, but I have a lot of 250 GPH Mag Drive pumps sitting here that I wanna sell....

BTW, they also have a fountain attachment..... so you have have all sorts of cute little fountain patterns if you decided you wanted one for making a fountain...

But seriously, I'd bet its just an air bubble trapped in there.. the only user servicable part is the impellar. I think it'd be worth a look before you go looking for something that might be impossible for fix...

I had a horrible time getting my case to stop reverberating with the pump, ended up folding some 3/8" opencell foam (the stuff that came with my Asus motherboard) and putting that between the pump and the case, and then on top of the metal, under the screws, I put some rubber washers, to prevent the vibration from coming through the screws to the case.. Kind of like motormounts in a car.. Works great, no more rattles, have to actually touch the case to fill a buzz..

I have found what seems to be a pretty good source of info regarding various pumps. It's actually an aquarium users FAQ that is made up of emails.

Some very good info in there albeit dated.
