I wouldn't know how to tell. This is all new territory to me. When I went to take the water tank out, I remember that it was 3/4 full but wouldn't drain even after I removed the outlet pipe. Once I started turning the inlet pipe loose, the water came gushing out. So, I'm wondering about whether...

I listened to what you said. I have changed things around. I'm going to try it later tonight once things set up. My family appreciates you and your family's support and gesture of kindness. I would still be serving if I could.

You're right about the real world experience. But I'm a broke veteran on a fixed income and people don't work for free. Plumbers are still people, right? I appreciate the information that you have shared, though. I really do.

So, you're saying that there is a check valve underground and that I don't need the one on top, is that correct? Is moving the pressure switch absolutely necessary? That's a bit more involved. Additionally, when I initially turn the power on, the air pressure at the tank is 40. The pressure...

Okay. I'll change it around. Anything else?

This is how I have set up the the expansion tank. Take a look. When I turn the switch on at the pole, it will run nicely for about 10 seconds and then start short cycling again. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong? I have had suggestions that the air pressure is too low in the...

Having determined that the tank is bad, I am going to have to replace it. I have decided to replace it with a 4.5 gallon size tank with a cycle stop valve. It seems more economic all the way around.

I'll give it a shot and let you know what happens.

There is no branding on the tank that I can recognize. The air pressure wasn't enough to register on a tire pressure gauge. The only thing that I have so far is to pressurize the tank. I don't know how much pressure to put in it. I have a 40/60 switch on it. With the new information, do you have...

I have the power cut off.

I have an 83 gallon bladder tank that is almost 4 years old that is short cycling like a jackrabbit. I tried to empty the tank (nothing came out), checked the pressure (no pressure) and there is a condensation line at about 3/4 height of tank. Water will flow to the house while it's short...
