A used piece of equipment is always a puzzle to figure out what the previous owner did(or didn't do) to it..you'll get it worked out Sonny..just in time to push snow..10to1 the electric transfer pump you pull out of the box is junk,Ive been thru a ton of 'em..try to get a original Carter or Airtex pump, not a knock-off import,those don't last..best of luck to you
