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)

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 ..

Have Taboret K 8201-4 bathroom faucet with T handles.

Question edited to fix the typos. Always worrying when they discontinue lines, and it makes you wonder why? https://www.us.kohler.com/us/taboret-centerset-bathroom-sink-faucet-with-lever-handles/productDetail/product:420060/420060.htm I normally find that they use steel screws and they stick. Make some sort of a dam around the screw with stout polythene like Ziploc bag and electrical tape to seal the base. Then squirt penetrating oil or WD40 in there to cover the screw head. Top it up a couple of times a day and do that for two days. That should loosen it up and get the oil down the threads. Often it is just easier to buy a new set.

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 ..

Drummond 63318 pump. Can I take the garden hose fitting off and use the 1-1/4" fitting and larger hose to pump more volume?
