Cool, thanks.
It is full now and when I first turned it on it barely had any pressure. I remembered when I first got this pump new I was supposed to fill up the tub and "flood the pump" by loosening the pvc connector on it to let the air out. After this the pump seems to run fine with good pressure and no leaks.
Is there something I need to be on the lookout for?
Does that mean I dodged a big bullet??
Thanks for your reply.
