I have just purchased a Fiat Ducato mobile home. It is fitted with a sureflo 16PSI 12V water pump for onboard water. I seem to have a problem with it. It does not seem to have enough suction to pump water up to it. With the pump out and the filter in a bowl of water it seems to pump at a good rate as it has a constant supply of water. However if I connect a pipe and hold the pump 5 foot above the bowl with the pipe in the water it fails to suck up water.
If anyone has any ideas as to what could be wrong it would be very helpful.
PS. The motor runs well, and I have looked at the diaphragm and to me it looks ok but I am no expert.
Many Thanks
