Man, I'm tired!
The crank alone would NOT pull in the living room slide. Luckily I had a floor jack and some leftover firewood. I used it to help "lift" the slide up, as it drops down about 3" as it goes out. Once I got the slide up, then I used the crank to get inward pressure, then my GF and I went outside and pushed side by side. It went in slowly, but I got it.
Bedroom slide was a little easier -- release the valve then Jessica and I pushed it in.
Time for a break... shower, pizza and drive home.
next week I'll dig into the pump issue.
