Have a 2 in shallow well that would not hold prime. No foot valve, has a check valve at the pump. Checked the valve and it seems to be ok. The well pipe is outside and the pump is in the basement, has a tee in the well pipe about three feet below ground where the pipe comes into the basement. I think the
Pipe has a hole rusted in it somewhere between the tee and the pump. If I drop a weighted string down the 2in well pipe I have water at 9 feet and the weight stops at 41 feet, I don't know...
Can't seem to prime pump
