I just installed a new impeller & the motor won't pump water. I've checked for any obstructions & can find nothing wrong. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forum.
Did you get the key installed properly into the impeller?
Are you running it in a barrel, do you have the water level high enough?
Did you get the water tube in the water pump housing correctly?

+1 don't judge it with muffs on. Run it in a barrel or trash can...
