You need to go to a better pump like this

than the one you are using !
We go years on our huge pumps, and i'll guarantee our livewells get used more !

my last pump cost $199 shipped, and that was the best deal I could find on the web. It was not an "el cheapo".

I will try anything at this point, though. The Rule pump that you linked says "will not self prime and must be mounted below waterline." That won't work for me. Are you sure this is the model you are using, Ronnie?

Only downside is if drifting without running the engine these pumps suck the juice!!!!!!
