Low Water Pressure

[TGB]

I recently bought my boat which has a new Jabsco pump,( not sure of the model) and the water system initializes with excellent pressure only to bleed down to a trickle after 3- 4 seconds. Ive started to look at a accumulator tank as one fix. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Can we assume you checked the filters?

Well actually no

You have a restriction somewhere. Filters are the first place to check.
I had a piece of lime in my pick up tube.

Pressure switches are a common problem. Sounds like your pressure switch is not engaging as pressure drops.
