the pump is working ,did you change the filter? you might have a kink in the line somewhere .

hi, tested my pump with a battery and pump was pumping so I put it back in the tank and it was making all the noises but not pumping out of the tank, thought it strange ,then heard the pump only has a two volt feed and had tested mine with 12 volts ,so ordered a new pump from Bradford and dropped the tank again fitted the new pump and it fired up straight away ,...just thought I would share the experience, this was on a 1994 gmc dayvan
