shur flo sink on boat not flowing well

[rhino_160]

Hey all,
Just picked up and cleaned my new-to-me 2007 Tahoe 222. Everything is in excellent condition except the shur-flo sink. When I turn it on, i hear the motor kick on and the first second of water is a nice, strong flow. After that, it barely comes out, just fast enough to make a stream. If i turn it off and back on, it again gives a strong burst of water the first second, then back barely coming out. The tank is full so not sure if the main line is stopped up or what i should start with. Any ideas? Thanks

I'd start by checking the tank vent. Pull the fill cap off and see if that makes a difference. Like you mentioned check the line from the tank to the pump. Simple system, shouldn't be that tough to figure out.

Seen that many times,the filter before the sure-flow pump gets plugged up. They come apart by twisting the housing,remove the screen and clean it out. Reassemble and good to go. Also check the screens on all the faucets,they get debris in them just the same.
