   Hi all - just back from a great trip up through northern Idaho. Halfway through, water pump is giving me problems (keeps kicking on, allowing city water to bypass and overflow, now leaking from the front of the pump). Its 11 yrs old so I'm going to replace it rather than see if the diaphragm is shot. The original is the ShurFlow 4008, eTrailer recommends a FloMax as a direct replacement with higher pressure and gpm. Anyone have any experience with one vs the other? I know the OEM would be fine, but there's not much price difference so wondering if the FloMax is worth a shot. I've always had good experiences with eTrailer.
Thanks, all!
