Hi Folks- I found that my fresh water pump was running continuously today and
not pressurizing the system and not cutting out when pressurized. I confirmed
there was water in the tanks and flow to the manifold that controls tank
choice. But there was no water in the filter after the manifold a
About a year ago I was looking for experience here on a Marco UP3 freshwater
pump, and there was no response.
To report on the Marco, I loved the pump, I just didn’t like that it quit
pulling water by September. A little over 3 months. They did eventually take
it back, after several push-up
This spring, I was able to replace the diaphragm and valve seals on the Jabsco
pump from my 1988 30-2 to stop a leak. It sounds very similar to yours. That
model number does not look current, but here is a good selection of rebuild
kits:

Where is the leak? Service kits may be available for this pump. Jabsco
renumbered their pumps some time ago. This pump may use the same service
kit as a current pump.
Barring that, both the Par and Shurflo pumps have good reliability. My
experience seems to indicate the Shurflo pumps are sligh
I have one of these:

Good am all,
We had another great weekend on the boat and I finally confirmed that my
fresh water pump is the culprit on the leak I've had for a couple months.
Easier to fix than finding a leak in the hoses or at a joint somewhere..
The Pump is the original Jabsco with diaphragm and plunger
