Portable firewater pump not priming

Portable firewater pump not priming

Portable firewater pump not priming

(OP)
Are there any operating/testing procedures out there for transportable draft pumps?

The reason I ask is we are having problems pulling prime. Could be a vapor lock or leaks.

Thanks.

RE: Portable firewater pump not priming

What is the question, are you discussing water pumps or beer pumps (draft beer)and how is the initial priming done?

It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts. (Sherlock Holmes - A Scandal in Bohemia.)
