To prime a pump shut the pump off at the breaker box and look for a 1/4" plug or a gage on the top of the impeller cage. Remove it and fill the impeller cage until it runs over. Rewplace the plug or pressure gage and start the pump. This shou;ld get the prime back. If you can't fill the impeller cage to overflowing then you have a bad ckeck/foot valve. Good luck, tom
