Hi, I'm working on the plumbing and electrical systems in my '64 Globetrotter. I noticed when towing the trailer home that the water didn't work. I couldn't find the master cutoff valve from the main tank, either. Today, I discovered that there was no cutoff valve between the main tank and the pump. The pump will make noise, but no water will come out of it. I have also discoverd that there is water going to the pump. Thus, I conclude that the pump is not functional. My personal policy on parts in that price range is that if I didn't put it in, and it fails, then I replace it. If I put it in and it fails, I'll think about rebuilding it. So, I'm buying a new pump. When I looked at pumps in the West Marine catalog, they recommended an accumulator tank to reduce pump cycles. I wonder if any of you have any wisdom to share on this topic. The concept makes so much sense that I woudln't hesitate to do it except that it takes up space. I have to get a charger , solar controller (Sun Saver 6), inverter, automatic transfer switch, two optima batteries, and a toilette to fit in the rear compartment, so space is definitely at a premium.
