I am upgrading to a larger Intex sand filter pump and I have read that some of the O-rings needs to be lubricated. Do I only need to grease the O-ring on the strainer basket or are there ones that I need to address? Thank you

Welcome to TFP! 
To prevent suction air leaks, definitely the o-ring under the clear lid. If your pump has a drain plug, check for an o-ring there as well.

I currently have a 10 inch sand filter pump and the new 14 inch pump is supposed to be here Thursday night so I don't physically have it to look at it. Thanks
