I had a problem similar to yours a few weeks back. The gauge on the
pressure tank was about 60 psi in my case. Open a spicket with the well
pump breaker cut off and water comes out for only about 2 or 3 seconds.

When the tank was replaced it had a lot of water in it and was very
heavy. Nothing would come out the bottom of the tank where the water
line is hooked to it. A nice big one or more inch hole for the pipe.

We took out the valve stem at the top of the tank that was laying on its
side and it shot a stream of water out about 20 or 30 feet for about 30
seconds it seemed.

We think the water got over the bladder in the tank and when we took the
tank loose the rubber sealed over the hole in the tank so nothing would
come out of the bottom.

If you hold down the steam on the top of the tank valve and let all the
pressure off and have the well pump turned on water will soon come out
of it.
