Update on well problems.
After all the work, we found that the original NEW pump that we had bought for the well had actually been returned to HD as not working.
They simply put it back on the shelf.
We knew that that there could be a problem, since the box was open but the sales guy said the pump was OK.
Should not have listened.
We checked the water level by the string with a nut on the end of it and found we have at least 4-5 feet of water in the well pipe.
Got a new pump and we are now pumping water.
There is still a problem in that there is a pressure tank on the old well pump that we installed on the new one.
Problem is; pump pumps up to 40 #'s on the pressure gauge, and the motor shuts off, then when the pressure goes back down, the pump comes back on, about 20#'s and resumes pumping water.
Maybe we need to get a new pressure tank for the OG (Old Guy)
Thanks again for all the good suggestions, they have been helpful.
