I found a tiny manual in a box of parts which is titles "AMP plastic molding training manual" By E. V. Trunk. I searched Amp and found that they were the biggest company I had never heard of. You can read their company story here; it seems that they either changed their name or merged with another company called TE Conectivity. In short, they are a 10 billion dollar electrical connector company that started in 1956 making one thing to now making over 500,000 products and have 100,000 employees!
It seems like my machine came from their original Harrisburg PA facility. I remember that the guy I bought the machine from said it came from Pennsylvania. With this knowledge, I did a quick search on LinkedIn to see if I could find anyone who worked there around that time. I quickly found a few guys and sent them link requests; they could end up being valuable contacts.
There is a lot of good stuff in this little manual but the best thing is this:
This cleared up a few questions I had about the injection molding cycle, I'm glad I have it. The rest of the manual is available to download here. Please let me know if its of any worth to you!
As for the water leak, I talked to a guy at work (I work at a gas company) and he said I should try a repair clamp. I ordered one and I will let you know if it works.
