DAYTON 3P653 Pump, 13 Hp Utility Pump. Looking for an owner/operator manual for a 3P653 please?

Question edited for FULL 'make model (what it is)'. Question moved from Motorcycles category. This SHOULD produce the manual https://www.google.com/search?q=Dayton+3P653+manual But doesn't. This makes me think they are a 'make' without a maker and it seems to me that it is a Grainger 'own make' brand. Contact them direct. https://www.google.ca/search?q=Dayton+Pump ..

Blue tube on bottom of FloJet beverage pump has air coming out of it when the Co2 tank is turned on.

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to Flojet Pumps. It should come out in puffs when the FloJet is pumping and then stop when it senses pressure. If it is a constant leak. It needs replacing. Co2 is toxic in a closed room. On a beverage pump, your supplier of whatever the beverage is (beer, soft drink syrup) should replace it free of charge. ..

My new, first time used Shurflo 5059 5.3gpm 60psi pump cuts off after 3sec.

Difficult to work out how you are using and wiring this? The pump is under the sink but you have 30 feet of wire going outside? My guess is that the filter is causing too much back pressure and cutting it off. Then pressure is vented off through the filter and it starts up again. Are you using this with a pond? Not an application for this pump I don't think. https://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200647933_200647933 ..

PROFLO FAUCET MODEL ID???

The information you supplied purely relates to a certification that water running through the tap is safe for drinking and lead free. Normally, all plumbing fittings work to a standard, they all use the same sizes and threads. For instance, it is is a shower attachment hose or head, they are all the same and are interchangeable. Or you can go here and find the one that looks like yours. https://www.google.com/search?q=PROFLO+faucet&rlz=1C1QJDB_enCA643CA644&sxsrf=APq-WBvHUOOdc3VPeK9j2DIooAGKx1GSUg:1647803781570&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiikr24s9X2AhWHW80KHdfJCaUQ_AUoAnoECAEQBA&biw=1920&bih=937&dpr=1 ..

How do i remove impeller

Once you take off the front cover. You will see the impeller. Take of the rear cover and the shaft has a flat spot on it. You can hold it with a open ended wrench and spin off the impeller. It will be tight. There is no need to take it off unless it's broken.

My marine macerator pump stopped working

first check if the pump get power. I presume your pump is 12V DC. If you have a dc tong tester that is one way.Or disconnect the motor and reconnect directly to a battery. Then a more crude way to test is to take one lead off and touch it together again. If your pump is stuck but the motor is still o.k. you will get a reasonable spark. No spark: your motor brushes are worn out or your motor is toast. You have a spark your pump is stuck with debris. Try to run it reverse(reverse the power leads) and or clean it out. You can see the cutter knifes from the intake end and should be able to turn them with a screw driver. New pumps on ebay: I paid $125

Moen single handle faucet, when turning off the water it drips on the cold side

Sephie, You have a very common problem. The short answer is you need to replace the Cartridge, which is Moen part # 1225.I have seen that so many times with that particular faucet... I'm not a big fan of Moen in general-- but that aside.... That Faucet is one of their "economy" lines and has a long history of giving trouble. I would suggest to you that the best solution would be to replace the faucet with a nice quality Delta, or equivelant-- Delta style and those that use the same parts such as many Peerless and others ARE VERY SIMPLE TO SERVICE, and the PARTS ARE PRETTY CHEAP AND ALWAYS AVAILABLE at Lowe's or Home Depot. Moen cartridges are expensive and can be hard to find the exact match as there are many models that look almost identical. You can get the part free from Moen, but that takes time and can be a hassel.Hope this helps, Let me know if you have further questions! Good Luck!

My top multi pedrollo water pump is only vibrating and hot for about 3 minutes without pumping and stops

The motor on those pumps needs a capacitor to start and run. Capacitor failure will result in the symptoms you describe. The capacitor is inside the unit. TOP_EN_60Hz.pdf (pedrollo.com)
