So had to get a new pump. Have it all connected and it runs but can't get the pump basket to fill completely. Even if we use the air release it will not fill 100%. It is a 1.5 hp pump and on low everything functions mostly but on high we have issues. We can't seem to use it to vacuum at all. If we turn it off and back on we have to open the basket and get it to fill that way or it causes issues. I know the pump is bigger than we need... is that the issue? The boys told me old was 1.5 and then later after ordering informed me old was 1. 0. The new pump is a Hayward Power-Flo Matrix dual speed 1.5 HP
