ShurFlo pump leaking after relocating it
I had to change the location of my shurflo pump by a few inches recently when I repaired my fresh water tank, and it immediately developed a leak where the motor connects to the valves. I didn't knock it around or anything. All the screws holding it together are tight. There is a little tension being put on the pump due to the inflexibility of the new water line coming from the tank (previously it was a flexible, softer hose and now it's the harder plastic kind). All I can think of is that this little bit of tension is pulling enough on the connection point to create a tiny separation between the motor and valves. But that seems absurd to me. Does anyone know if these pumps are delicate enough that this would be the case?
