That old timer on the Missouri River job who schooled me on pump pressure

Guy must have been 70, looked at my gauge setup and just said "you're burning out your seals running it that high." He was right. Dropped it 15 PSI and the dredge ran smoother all afternoon. Anyone else have an old hand call them out on something basic?

Same guy ever tell you that running too cool of a fuel mix can gum up the injectors too? An old timer on my first job caught me doing that and saved me a weekend of headaches.
