Hello All,

I have an issue with my goulds well pump recently cycling on and off in an

Hey, folks I am guessing an EASY reason for this. He had the power
turned off quite a bit so he says. If, like at my house, the kids and
wife ignore me when I say DON'T USE WATER when the power is off,
that's what happened....Drained the tank, no input from the
pump.....yahda yahda yahda.....


Solution, turn off the main water cut-off when you cut the power. Wife
and kids ain't happy, but saves me hassling with the tank later.....
