I have a Jabsco Water Puppy impeller pump which I use for odd jobs. Right now I am trying to remove the oil accumulated in the drip pans under my engines.
The pump sucks at first for about a minute and then loses its "suction".
The next day I looked at the impeller - seems OK (it has one vane missing, but it was already like that) - tried pumping again - same thing - pumped well for about a minute.
Can anyone explain this?
