A bad check valve, or one installed backwards?

[Brad]

I did get in there and pushed in the springs hoping that was it,,will replace the valve in hopes that is it.Thanks

Has anyone replaced a ck valve on a water hose reel?

Just replaced mine yesterday. Corrected the problem which was same as yours.

[Brad]

Ten mill Did you have to remove the hose reel to replace the check valve? And where did you get the valve from .?

No, I did not remove it. Mine may be different. I have a 2004 Vectra 40kd.

My valve is located just above an elbow in the pipe. Above the valve was a plastic screw on cap and another located at the reel. I removed both of those and took out the entire elbow so I could work on removing the valve on the ground. It was very tight but did come loose. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the tip. will give it a try.

Mine has leaked just a little for probably 10 years. I use brass quick-connects, so I just put a quick-connect with a cap on the hose when I disconnect and that has worked great.

I want to upgrade my SHURflo water pump for a little more flow and pressure. It look like the pump is a Shurflo 1.8 GPM pump. When i called Shurflo they said they are usually 3.0 gpm in RVs. Looking for advice on what is appropriate or recommended.
I am new to this so forgive me for not starting a new thread. I don't know how to do that. How do I start a new thread?
