Sheriff,
Glad it didn't happen like most stories such as this...."Bang....LEEAAAKKKK"....don't forget, "If it happened once, it'll potenially happen twice"......don't let that come true....
If it was mine and there is no relief valve built in to the pump, then I'd add one inline between the pump and QD......
https://www.surpluscenter.com/item.asp?item=9-1556&catname=.....set it just above your highest found pressure on your machine and run an extra hose to a tee back to the reservoir.....
An extra relief valve , fittings and hose is usually cheaper and less aggravation than new pump........:2cents:
