I hope I spelled that correctly. Anyhow, my Jabsco head pump/macerator works somedays then wont fire other days. I know it is getting power and I can her a clicking at motor. Got a new/used pump from a friend and was just about to do a rush job to change it and it worked all day yesterday. Is it the motor or do you think the impeller or macerator blade is binding? I am 95% sure there is not clog as it functioned properly all day when it fires. I can spin the motor on the days it doesn't work and it feels just as free as the newer one I will be installing. I want to try to fix this old one for backup. thx Rob
