actually, it's the check valve in the pump head. turn off city water. turn on sink tap, turn on pump, let run for a minute. turn off pump, turn off tap at sink, turn city water back on. enjoy.

Yup that's what I was thinking. Don't think it was happening earlier this year so it sounds like it's failed.

Sounds like the check valve on the line is installed backward or failed.

I have a 179 just purchased new in July. I have it parked on my drive and hooked the house water up to the appropriate hook up and when I came out the next morning, water was coming out of the fill spout and the water tank was completely full. Anyone have any ideas of what's going on?
