New Fresh Water Pump
Well I had a Shruflo 4900-0211 constant flow no matter the tap opening. It worked very well for 3 years then started having issues. The adjustment screw always seemed to help. Well it stopped after ...

Update: after using the new pump on two weekends I found that it was pumping in an unsteady rate more so than when first installed. So I called Shru Flo...very helpful tech..I explained I was wary of doing any adjustments due to fact that there is two devices that need to be adjusted...did NOT want to screw this NOT CHEAP pump up. He assured me that what he wanted me to do would not cause any issues and if it did they would ship me a new one out right away.
So I did as he told me too...1 1/2 turn to increase shutoff pressure, took a tiny allen wrench, lucky my kit contains English and metric down to hair size to 1/2"...I had the right one...made the turn...shut off power to pump...opened taps...shut taps...power on...pump got to pressure and shut off...opened taps it spurted and spit...good flow...shut taps...took a long moment to get to pressure and stopped...open tap again at all stations...great flow...shut them off in turn and flow was still good...all off pump shut off after about 5 seconds...then open taps again and shut off..pump stopped after 1 second and has done that ever since...I suspect the air trapped had to be purged...seems to be work very well...very pleased.
I have placed the pump on a pad of foam cushion to help damp the nose...it worked. This is going to be good...I like the flow at all levels hi to trickle, no pump bumping. If you have to change a pump get one of these, pricey but does a GREAT job!
