Default Pump problem...

"Prometheus Xex" wrote in message t.cable.rogers.com...
I have a Laguna Powerjet 7000. It stopped working so I replace the impeller
and bushing. I ran fine, then when I unplugged it, and restarted it, it
doesn't pump. I pulled it apart and pulled out the impeller. Everything
looks fine. Before I reseal, I checked if it turns. Yep... until I unplug,
then replug. The impeller (still exposed) is turning erratically... almost
like it wants to backwards while turning forwards. So it kind of jiggles,
but manages to turn in one direction not achieving much.

Anyone know what's up?

The solution probably is a new impeller-magnet assembly. Last fall I
noticed that the tip at the the end was worn and for $28+ shipping got
a new one at
www.thatpetplace.com. The price may vary because my Laguna is the
5000.
Happy water gardening.
