    Why is my jet pump show zero pressure??

    No I can't see any check valve apart from the footvalve. Is it possible that the pump only flows one way or there is a malfunction that is causing this and my lack of pressure? I'm really out of ideas to get water flowing again. Any help is appreciated!

    How much pressure is too much?
