Hi Thayden,
My pump was working fine up higher & I wouldn't have remounted it except I erroneously thought it needed replacing + needing to change my coolant. After changing out the pump, the circulation was still sub-par & finally found the problem: a kinked hose. Eventually I need to make some other repairs, so the remount has been worth it for draining ease alone. The downside: if I sling rubber from a tire blowout & tear the pump, etc all to pieces.
I saw your 12V pump post...try Amazon for a 120V Sump Marine 330GPH (i.e. 5+gpm) transfer pump for $50. That's identical to what I bought & it works flawlessly. I was wondering why you are removing your Hurricane to work on it as my coach has plenty of room to remove the left side cover where most of the components are. Thanks Carl for the picture showing the limited space on the left side in a Patriot but the Patriot is nice having both the DHW & Hurricane together in 1 bay, unlike mine.
Last, thanks for the tip on buying a Power Probe, which just came in. I was unaware of such & look forward to it's benefits.
