Hello I have a 1988 Sea Ray 340 Express Cruiser. This spring when I flushed out my fresh water system and filled up the tank I noticed that my pump kept running after I shut all the faucets. I opened a faucet and after a few seconds the pump had a different sound to it. I shut the faucet and the pump built pressure and shut off like normal. A few hours later the pump came back on and ran and would not shut off. I did the same thing with the faucet and got it to shut off again. Now every time I flush the toilet or use only a small amount of water the pump will not go off. I thought there may be air in the lines so I started at the farthest outlet and worked my way back until I thought all the air was out. I ran about 2 full tanks through the system trying to bleed it thinking there could be an air pocket somewhere in the lines. When the tank is completely full the system works properly, however when I use just a small amount of water and the tank is not completely full I keep getting the problem with the pump running and not shutting off. I cannot locate a leak in the system. Could there be a problem with my pickup tube? Has anyone had this type problem before.
