I just replaced my Zoeller M53 pump with a brand new M53 and new Zoeller 30-0238 inline check valve.
Got everything back together and pump is running but, no discharge from outside line. Took apart main discharge pipe from the extension attached directly to the pump and check valve and plugged in pump, pump pushed water up and out.
Seems like it's pumping but not strong enough to push the water all the way through. Feeling into sump, at base of pump, there appears to be a small hole at base of cast iron structure, from which water is being discharged while pump is running.
