Good evening Hornig
Just went thru a similar issue with my camping friend. Little to no water coming out of any of the faucets and when water did come out it was full of air and the water pump was surging like crazy and took a long time to shut off.
First thought was the water pump itself and ordered a new one. No change in the issue,
I then realized that since I was getting air mixed in with what ever water was coming out of the faucet, the problem had to be on the suction side of the water pump.
What I did was connect a hose directly to the suction side of the water pump and the other end of the hose went into a 5 gallon bucket of water.- thus eliminating the filter - 3 way winterizing valve - and the suction line coming out the water tank.
Presto - water flowed out like its suppose to and no more air mixed in.
The culprit was the 3 way winterizing valve itself. Even though the valve was correctly set to suck water from the tank, something internally cracked and it was sucking from the open side with the 2 ft hose you would use to winterize the R/V.
Put new 3 way by-pass valve and all is good
