"Bill.....followed your direction and it was apparently the check valve. Was a little rusty (but is brass !) Cleaned up the spring,cap,and plastic/nylon "float" with oil and reinstalled.Ran all the way to top pressure and shut off. It even ran to the pressure its supposed to be. Hasn't in a couple years. HATS OFF TO BILL. LISTEN TO HIM. HE KNOWS HIS STUFF !!!"Dick, December 2011
