The Pressure
Water Pump in my
boat seems to not be working.
When I winterize the
boat for
winter, the
pump was working fine. To winterize, I emptied the
water system and poured three or four gallons of
antifreeze (the one for
water systems), then run it through the lines.
As I am now trying to de-winterize and flush the
antifreeze out, I can hear the Pressure
Water Pump working, but there is very little pressure (I filled the tank again), just a little more than a trickle, albeit constant.
I am really not familiar with water pumps, so I am not even quite sure where to start. Does it sound like the
pump is gone? The pump is almost new. What can it be the problem? Can pumps be fixed or is it common to simply replace them when they start showing issues?
Thank you!
