    Thank you so much for solving my problem! Haven't used my pump for quite some time and did not think about priming it. For a moment there I thought I would have to buy a new one. I primed it a few times, let the water fill the pump, still didn't work. What got mine going in the end was to turn the fan by hand, it was stuck - once I got the fan turning by hand and switching it on afterwards, it was back to normal operation. Thank you from a very chilly South Africa!

    Thanks brother. Just helped a lot. I needed to help a friend who’s lost prime. I’ve done this a couple times before but it’s been many years and I needed a refresher course. 👍🏼

    if you DON'T have municipal water to get the pump going, you can always borrow a few gallons of water from your neighbors/friends/grocery store (for moneys) in order to get your going. mine took about 2.5 gallons, but i got 4 gallons just in case. you can never have too much water when priming a pump!

    I have a jet pump installed in my garage due to my home having a well. However, I have no idea how to use it. I haven't even touched the thing in over 2 years! I also pay $600 annually to the city water department for water. How can I get the most out of my well as well as save money on my water bill?

    If I accidentally left my pump running all night and now I can’t get the prime back. Help.

    Why not just run it with the nut lose after filing it up to ensure its good?

      It's basically a big straw that goes into the water table to syphon water for use.
