Hi Crew- We took boat out of water onto trailer. Jacked the front end up to shed winter rains and run-off.
We then attempted to pump antifreeze into raw water intake. Wouldn't pump. Dropped boat down to level- still no pump.
Impeller with about six hours on it was replaced with new impeller, 0-ring, and gasket. Still won't pump.
I'm wondering if maybe I got an air-lock when we lifted the nose?
We bypassed valves and filters with a straight run to input side. We even disconnected the output side from the pump. Still nothing.
We examined the connections ans water pump housing for leaks, cracks, chips, etc.
The pump seems fine and worked up until we lifted the nose. Never had anything close to a problem with pump and pumping.
What's up with this.
Thanks-
Eeber
