i started bringing the rig out of hibrination and the water pump won't pump. It runs but doesn't move any water. I even ran a line into a bottle of water to be sure it was the pump. The pump is a Shurflo and I note some good prices at Camping World but wonder about replacing the gaskets or something. Any suggestions?

Sometimes they dry out and don't like to prime. Ensure a tap is open. My setup allows me to prime through the antifreeze line. Once it pumps, it's good for the season.

Check the screen coming into the pump if you have not already done so. The Shurflow web site tells you what parts you can get. Tear into it and see what is not working and contact them directly.

Make sure you don't have a valve to set to pump antifreeze thru system, it gets liquid from difference source, not fresh water tank. I assume fresh water tank is almost full?
