    I the motor overheating? Did the old impeller come apart? If it did, you can force water or compressed air into the water tube (you'll have to drop the LU to do that) or the tell tale may just have debris in it. Sometimes it can be cleared with a piece of heavy mono or weed wacker line.

    A straightened out paper clip is usually handier. Unlplug the line at the point where it come out of the block. Got water there?
