No. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve that I'll be trying out. Interestingly, they also apply to the automotive blower...
The glue is for the cheap 1/2 to 3/4" conversion (using the bushings).
Overall though, I'd have to say that if there's a way to make this pump more reliable, with a little TLC and maybe some regular maintenance, it would be well worth it. I'll report results.
