Good Morning!
I opened the pool yesterday and it appears I have one or two issues. I have a small like at the union between the pump and pump basket (just after basket, but before the hose that goes to filter). This leak is just a somewhat faster drip, but goes away when the pump is running. The second issue is that I get a A LOT of tiny air bubbles in return. I checked the o ring on the basket and lubed it, I also checked to see if the basket is draining when off, it was full of water this morning. If its a seal between the basket and pump, do I need to drain past the return to take it apart and re-seal or will the shut off valve before the basket and the filter set to closed allow me to disconnect and check the gaskets/seal. Also, would that tiny of leak cause that many air bubbles?
