Hello Eddie - It sounds like you have an air leak. Click here to view our guide about air leaks. Also, check the valves in front of your pump. They are a common spot for air leaks.

A few tips that I would advise would be to replace the o-ring if it has not yet been and use lubricant to both help seal and hold it into place.

(5 out of 5 stars) Holds up better than impeller
Reviewed By: Bruce P. from Berkeley, California ()
I replaced this part and the impeller in my pump after years of service, when there seemed to be a reduction in water flow. The sintered brass seal on the underside of this part had eroded under operation, and thus there was no longer a good seal against the stem of the impeller. After the replacement, the pump worked like new.
