You should be able to hear the water pump spinning in the tank - air locked, or propellers shot. Remove the covers over the water tank and listen. I solve the air lock by sucking on the faucet. Remember, at the faucet, switch turn one way for city water and the other way for reservior water. If still no spinning of the water pump, get out your volt meter and trace the juice. Check the fuses (behind driver's chair, on post). The pump is easy to take out, and if you convence yourself that the pump is bad, new ones can be had from gowesty.com (and others). Word of warning, under the faucet, where the hoses meet the underside of the faucet, those nipples are VERY fragile, don't pull the hoses off, cut them off. Time to replace the hoses anyway. m2cw Malcolm > I just bought an 84 westy but have been unable to > get the sink working > except when plugged in to an outside water source, > in other words, it will > not pump from the tank.
