Have the old timey original well pump. In the basement on a stand. I noticed today it is squealing when it is pumping. I think a bearing is going out. Suggestions of going on city water are out at this time, no budget for that. New pump, maybe but most well places around here want to do work on the well (jet pump system...), no budget right now to do a jet pump and all that right now.

I usually fix most stuff myself. So replacing the bearings it may be. Does anyone have instructions or diagrams for replacing the bearings? In this thread from another site I read about replacing the bearings myself. https://www.homeownershub.com/maintenance/well-pump-squeal-106512-.htm


Know of any instructions?
