Water pressure in is regulated at 44# and regulator has gauge showing out side pressure. If the new pump doesn't fix the problem I'll have to install a check valve as suggested.
Thanks for all the help and suggestions.
1. IF leaking thru the Pump, replacing the pump will FIX the problem. ALWAYS will.
2. ALL you have to do is remove the Intake fitting from the pump. IF leaking thru the pump, you will see water flowing out.
3. NO RV IS DESIGNED TO FILL THE FRESH TANK THRU THE WATER PUMP.
4. PSI has nothing to do with failure of the pump to stop backfilling.
5. Adding a check valve is NOT a hack if you intend to get the pump replaced. It is a good thing to do until you get the pump replaced. Doug
