I have a similar problem with my jabsco head. It was a brand new replacement for the original that I installed about 4 years ago. The other night we were sleeping aboard and I got up in the middle of the night for a bio break and lo and behold, the bowl was full! Right to the rim but not overflowing! Lucky me, I thought, that it didn't sink the boat!

Well being the middle of the night my head wasn't totally screwed on. Of course, the bowl had been overflowing quite a bit and the bilge was full to the brim! (I had turned off the bilge pump earlier that day for some reason)... anyway .. long story short, thanks for recounting your experience. I now know what I have to do and what will be involved so I'm a whole lot less worried about it :)

Replacing the head and hoses was the filthiest job I've ever done and I'm glad not to have to repeat (much) of it.

    Recently, on port tack, my 'head bowl' was filling and overflowing
    with sea
    water.....wasn't completely sure whether it was a faulty 'choker
    valve'  or
    the valve in the 'shut off' lever....had to be one or the other,
    probably a
    faulty valve in the 'shut off' switch.

    Trip to Binnacle to check out possible solutions to the
    problem.....simplest
    way to address it was to get a whole new Jabsco pump assembly for
    $100.

    One hour labor in total install new pump..... disconnect 3 hoses
    from old
    pump, 4 screws in the base, screw new pump into place, connect the 3
    hoses.....one of the easiest boat jobs I have experienced.

    FYi for anyone having a similar problem.
