What is wrong with my pump?
Or is there anything wrong with it?
I just installed it. at first it had a hard time running so I helped it a bit with my finger, then it started to run a lot better but stops every now and then and does the clicky sound. I made sure there was lots of grease on it. Then when the float reaches the point where it should tell the pump to stop it makes that evil sounds like a tassimo coffee machine.

Does the shaft still spin when the rollers stop? If so, it is losing grip on the rollers. In that case I would explore maybe fixing that or gluing the rollers to the shaft? Cant really suggest a fix, not familiar with that brand.
