viscose

 

[Artisi]

Wait till I polish the crystal ball and I'll get back to you.

 

[BigInch]

The battery is losing power.
The wires have a small short circuit.
Someone is closing the supply valve.
The hose is clogged.

Artisi. Never loan your crystal ball out to me. I suppose I'll have to send it back to you some day.

I keep it for those special occasions like "my pump doesn't work - can you help" so not much chance of loaning it out as it is very often in use - however, will keep my eyes open for another.

viscose: You might have understood Artisi's and BigInch' replies. Your question is far too general. Nobody can really help you unless you provide some more information. What pump do you use? How are the suction and the discharge side conditions? Please, provide a sketch of the installation or a photo? What temperature does the water have?

I guess we can rule out a positive displacment pump then...

Did you know that 76.4% of all statistics are made up...

 

[BigInch]

Although probably more certain, even that's still a "maybe".

Is that a definite maybe?

 

[BigInch]

I've never said "maybe" without it being definite.

I have to admit that I have said "maybe" with some uncertainty.....

 

[BigInch]

I'm not that indecisive.

Ok guys I think the OP has understood the message (or not....maybe....)

 

[Artisi]

So maybe we will never know.
