I'm having a few issues with my Intelliflo VSF pump. The first issue is that I am unable to get a complete prime on the pump. I've troubleshot everything, and I believe the issue is either an underground suction side leak, or a issue with the filter (which is quite old).
This brings me to the second issue. Even while running the pump at high RPM, the pressure gauge on the filter reads zero. I thought this was just due to a broken gauge, but when I replaced it I received the same reading. If I open the release valve, air escapes and eventually begins pumping water through the valve, but the pressure gauge still reads zero.
The filter is pretty old and beginning to come apart a bit, could this be related to either issue?
Thank you!!
