3rd pump. Now to be fair I'm partly to blame. Yes, hard to believe, but after getting away with only draining the water in past winters with other rv’s and this one for one winter, the little water left in the pump head caused it to crack this winter and last winter (I know, slow learner). I found the leak as I was filling the water tank to check things out a couple of days before heading south. That was pump 2. Now, the 3rd pump (2 weeks old) is leaking from the pressure regulator. Held on by 4 screws and has an adjusting screw in the center. I will contact Shur-Flow Monday and see if I can replace the seal from pump 2 or have them send a replacement pump.

And, yes, I will winterize next winter! :oops:
