I bought a Quincy QT-54 60-gallon second hand from a service shop going out of business. Didn’t have a lot of hours on it and I paid $600. It’s been chugging along for the last 7 years with no issues.

Looks like I have a 3-prong relay which...

I don’t think that type of pressure is normal. I will say the vent on the ‘67 isn’t particularly effective when filling the tank. I often need to be careful and watch total gallons and I get some...
