Motor started spitting water intermittently. Pee hole clear. Eventually slowed to nearly nothing.
Took home, flushed with water hose and flush attachment. Good back flow but still not pumping.
Dropped lower, expecting to change impeller, but visually ok. Spun shaft with drill in bucket to confirm pumping.
Hooked hose to water pipe to simulate pump flow but still no flow out pee hole. With compressed air forced up into the water pipe, it did push some remaining water out pee hole.
Fresh water only for life of motor. No mud/junk.
Does this thing have a thermostat? Did not think so.
Do not want to take completely apart unless necessary.
At a loss for ideas.
Ordered a service manual. Will take a week.
Kinda need this working.
Anyone with ideas how to correctly troubleshoot this in the meanwhile?
