Hi. Trying to open but having trouble with the pump priming temporarily then losing its prime. Was able to get the water pressure flowing well into the pump for a few hours but it did not fully prime then it lost its prime again. I have the 3 port Jandy valve on Main Drain only and the skimmers are sealed off. I use the poolskim USA device and it has been working well. The MD is clear of any debris.
I don't see any leaks. I added new O-rings to the Jandy valve and to the Union that's directly in front of the pump. I don't notice any air leaks in the pump plugs. Could it be the Jandy valve needs replacement?
It seems my signature is not showing. I'll paste it below.
