    I ended up buying two new pumps for both heads which were on and off problematic over the years. What an amazing difference! A very simple swap out (aside of what came out of them) & these have never worked better! I had been in a panic as one went down the day I posted this and I couldn't find a replacement pump locally but did find macerators. I opted to wait instead of going through the entire retrofit and so happy I did

    Glad you got it working. I replaced pumps, seals, duck bills, etc. a number of times on my VF system before I gave up on it. Still recommend you a plan a system change out in the future if you plan to keep the boat and use it.
