Folks, I'm desperate here. I changed the o-ring, the rather large clamp around the top mount, and even the bottom drain cap. I'm still leaking. Can't run the pump, so pool is now a lovely shade of forest green. It's super hot here and I had to cover the pool because I couldn't stand looking...

Did that. Water came out the port smoothly. Could it be that I need to replace that "clamp" looking part that holds the top mount to the actual filter? Came home today to find water streaming from it.

Yes, I had to remove a plug to install the gauge. I can't seem to upload the pictures, so gave up trying.

I back-washed and rinsed numerous times, including today.

So, I posted my question and have no idea where it went, so here goes again. My pool 18' x 33', Hayward pump and sand filter. I have a terrible leak from the top mount, water SPRAYS out whenever I turn on the pump. I just changed the O-ring (filter is only 2 years old), and that did not help...

I'm new to this forum and not very good with pools, so bear with me. I have a Hayward filter that is spraying large amounts of water whenever I turn on the pump. I bought it 2 years ago. I changed the O-ring and that didn't help. Also, I have a tremendous amount of pressure, so much, that...
