Hello everyone, I am really not sure if i posted at the right place at all but i have seeked many places and maybe you peoble since you are dealing with water might help a little.

I have made a simple water pump from scratch: a little impeller connected to electric motor, a round housing, "thin" intake and outlet were water get sucked in and being pushed out the other side. the both holes are thin slits.

teh problem is when i put the device in the water, stupid enough the water refuse to get in the device, no matter how i turn it teh water cant get in the pump itself, so as I start the motor the impeller push "air" in the water. How can i fill the pump with water. no matter how much I put in deep under water in my tank, teh water dont get in


I appreciate your help..really really much


regards

how do i put photos?

I think the best way is to upload your photos to a Photobucket account (www.photobucket.com) and then to post a link here, whether that's a text link or you insert the images with the [ img ] [ /img ] tags.
