[VAC] Re: water pump

[Weimers]

Mine had a problem with the filter in the line just before the pump. It had a hairline crack in it that let it air. Got rid of the leak and the pump was as good as new.   MARC WEIMER Punxsutawney, PA  -  Home of the Groundhog #15767 1963 Globe Trotter 1971 Globe Trotter http://users.penn.com/~mweimer/weimer.html ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert Petersen To: Multiple recipients of VACList Sent: Sunday, April 01, 2001 1:15 PM Subject: [VAC] water pump Hello everyone,   With the relatively pleasant weather we've been having here in Southeast Michigan, I've been testing out all the systems on our '75 Tradewind.  The previous owner was quite a tinkerer, and some of it took me forever.  But my question is this...when I fill the water tank, and turn on the water pump,  the pump runs continuos for about 15 minutes before it stops.  Is this normal?  If so, is it building up pressure?  If not normal, what could be the cause?  Seems it takes forever to learn these systems.  Thanks,   Robert
