So I bought new pump for the new season. Looks like there's air leak.
If I back wash and the pump fills to the top, once I turn it on it slowly goes down.
What I noticed is when I pull the power to the pump, air leaks out from the pump cap. I only put Vaseline for lubrication, I know it's not good.
But do you think that's the reason why it loses prime so quickly? In going to the pool store tomorrow to get proper lubrications.
Thanks
