      I meant to post a query here, instead of on my “Current Projects” thread,
      regarding the subject motor, but here’s the link to the dilemma on
      the last post.

      I went to test start this motor for the first time and it’s not pumping water.
      This motor had an “extra” water line that none of the earlier ones did.

        Perhaps you’re “loosing it” and that extra line wasn’t really extra, but
        rather fell out of place, and perhaps you couldn’t tell with the power
        head on.
        There also may blockage, like insect larve & mud etc., on the power head
        discharge, you might find if you remove the power head. Good luck,
        and we expect a test run video of the Hiawatha soon!
