I can not comment on his sewer soultion save to think that perhaps the discharge hose got clogged..
I will comment on it in general.. It is a Water powered JET Pump. using gallons and gallons of fresh water to do a job that can be far easier done by a few watt hours of electricity by a macerator pump. This puts additional load on your water system (If you have your own well you end up using electricity anyway. if the park. likewise or they have to pay for it by the gallon in some parks_) it also places additional load on your septic/sewer system with the attendant additional costs..
Or you can just use a macerator like I do when the 3" stinky slinky is not enough.
