Accidentally deadheaded one of my pumps. Valves were closed at the feed and the filter input. The water in the pump output pipe got hot enough to swell and break glue seals. I replaced the damaged pipe and hoped for the best. The pump started and ran ok, but the flow is nowhere near what it was before. I separated the pump from the motor checking for a damaged impeller but everything looked fine. Any suggestions?
