    Installed new pump with valves and still having issues with pressure. Trying to maintain 30 psi but lose pressure after five minutes working. Any help appreciated. Thanks!

    Possibly the seal on the topside Mesh Filter housing????try to run some water over the filter housing while the pump is running to see if it will prime...

    If it is not the $17 o-ring on the pickup tube, it might be the relief valve inside the tank is opening prematurely. Sometimes this gets full of crud and will leak by. You can pull it from inside the tank, disassemble then reinstall to check. As long as your pump is working, the only way you won't have pressure is if it is bypassing somewhere. Hence the relief valve.

    Thanks for the info. The clog was in the relief valve.
