Where's the current water level and what was it when the well was dug?

In all likelihood, the water table is simply lower now and the only
thing you can do is drop the pump deeper; presuming there's still some
depth below where the pump is set.

If not, it's likely new well time or live with it.

We're in same shape here...table was 128-130' in '66; now it's about
140'. If you're lucky you know who drilled the well and they've still
got the records and can tell you what it was...
