I recently changed my pool motor and gaskets. I made sure to lubricate all the gaskets with vaseline. A few days later water is leaking from the pump. What did I do wrong? Help please!!

You never want to use vaseline on any rubber gaskets or o-rings. Vaseline is petroleum based and will deteriorate the rubber quickly. Whenever you change the motor on a pool pump it is recommended that you replace the gaskets and shaft seal as well. A >Go-kit contains the shaft seal, packet of non-petroleum based lubricant and gaskets you will need for your pump. If you already have the gaskets, you can purchase >Magic Lube.

My pump is not priming even after cleaning impeller. Will purchasing this kit aid in fixing that problem?
Reply
The seal kit can help with loss of prime. I can't guarantee that it will solve your problem. The loss of prime could be from an air leak at the valves or plumbing in front of the pump.

My pump has started to drip water and I have lost a lot of pressure at the discharge into the pool. I feel a tune-up would be a good choice?

Hi Tony, Yes a tune-up is normally where I would always start as this will fix the leaking issue 90% of the time.

My kid dropped a small lid into the intake which ended up stopping the constant flow into the pump for about 10 plus minutes. Now the pump looses pressure when on waste and filter. Will this kit fix this issue? The pump operates fine. Just little 'suction' so to speak....
Thanks!

It might be your seals, but I would check to make sure your impeller is not broke or cracked first.

My pump is running louder than usual, what would you recommend to help me with this problem

Hi, Nancy. If the motor is loud that's usually an indicator that the motor bearings are bad. You can either replace the motor bearings and or the entire motor.
