Default Re: Hard Starting when warm

if it helps the lead going to each bank from the controler should pull 55 amps. each plug pulls around 15 by it self. if your having issue with plugs its one thing, but your discribing a pump issue. under the right conditions the check valve on the pump can pick up debrie. problem is the debrie is coming from the innereds of the pump. if the check valve is leaking then it will loose its prime by drawing air back into the pump from the over flow line. the valve screws right into the top of the pump and looks like a brass nipple with a small hose attached. if the pump goes real bad it can and will over advance the pump timing. once the head presure reachs 10 psi it will quit starting. if you suspect the pump/valve after all is said and done remove it and put in a straight fitting with no check valve. if it fires and runs the pump is going bad and will need rebuilt.
