    How to manually prime a 1985 Jacuzzi Pump model 5RP2?

    It seems like this is a big roll of the dice. The plumber said you can install a new well but it might not hit water. As in you can't really tell where the problem is - kind of hit or miss. :( (i.e. maybe the water table changed or is too low.) I don't know what to do. I don't want to pay...
