Hi

If your pump is as conveniently located as my pump ... first step might be to pull it out from under the fridge. You might well find that the rock (or whatever) simply shakes out once the pipes are off the pump.

Hi

It's more a generic video to give an idea of where the stupid screw is and how much to tweak it each time you fiddle the setting. It's certainly better than what we already had .... It also (via the gremlins of YouTube ) links you into a long string of "troubleshooting your RV water pump" videos. Lots to watch all winter long

Loud and rapid cycling water pump

So in summary.
Airstream does not use flex hose, 1/2 inches piping and on my 23fb it elbows at the pump.

Hi

The plastic pipe they use is likely better for the application than a hose.... It will be a bit more noisy, but way more durable.

Loud and rapid cycling water pump

I got tired of the knocking and cycling loud water pump.Spent $120 and 15 mins on a Shurflo Revolution pump.No more knocking and cycling and more water pressure is a added bonus.
Mounted the old pump to a board and installed alligator clips with 1 ft of wire and bought 10 ft of clear plastic hose.Comes in handy for transferring fresh water to the water tank from 12 gallon containers when boon docking.I carry a portable jump box/compressor that powers it.
