Replaced pressure switch. Switched on the breaker. Tank fills. Pressure comes up to 40. Pressure switch still DOES NOT turn off. Just sits there at 40 psi but switch stays on. Open the tap and it runs like gangbusters for a minute then stops. After a minute it starts to run again. Same as before.
Can't figure why the pressure switch will not open (turn off) at 40 psi.
Wonder if there is a hole in the hose pipe down in the well that only leaks at a certain pressure.
Going to pull the pump. It is 250 feet down.
