Was a plunger ever used?Dont mean to hijack the thread, but any insight into this….
Hoping to get a little help. Whole system still seems to work fine BUT am having pressure pushed up and leaking through the saver vent and the tank level cap. Anyone ever seen these happen simultaneously?? When system builds up pressure, pump turns off but it pushes contents up through just these two locations. After a while the pump will turn back on to again build pressure etc. is it hopefully as simple as replacing these to parts or any other ideas?? Filter replaced every year snd duckbills every two. But this just started
Not since ive owned it goin on 6 yearsWas a plunger ever used?
its in a 2004 320…. I did notice several weeks ago the pump ran longer than normal. Just let system set thinking maybe something in a duckbill. Came back few days later and all was perfect for several weeks now snd just discovered this today. No plunger or anything with exception of pump outs regularly every two weeksWas a plunger ever used?
Make absolutely sure the vent is clear from the outlet of the tank through the filter to the outlet on the boat.Not since ive owned it goin on 6 years
The holding tank is vented to the atmosphere, via the "fart filter" and the vent on the side of the hull. The only way the holding tank can pressurize is if there is a restriction in the vent line. Remember the vacuum generator is under vacuum. Hence, atmospheric pressure is high relative to it. The sources of the "high" pressure are:It appears to be. Unhooked filter and appears good flow and no blockages either way. Have not replaced this filter yet this year but was new in Aug. guess its possible its blocked some. Any chance a leaking duckbill could allow pressure to build in the tank??? Just not sure why pump builds good pressure then kicks off as normal if thats true. I am so at a loss with this

Well it's not the duckbills
Replaced the 4 duckbills and re-installed the vacu-flush. Nothing's changed, bowl holds water, and pump cycles but never shuts off. I'm getting a vacuum at the bowl, when I flush it I can hear the vacuum/suction.
Any ideas??
Thanks for letting us know!Today I finally fixed the problem (original topic of this thread). It was the o-ring on the pressure switch.
