Can anyone tell me the main difference between "wet" and "dry" is?
The pump seems a little easier to start, I still have to "blow" into the air intake to get it start turning otherwise it try to turn and just makes "clicking" sounds. Hopefully it will turn on its own after the break in period. I am using a 220 to 110 converter.
I cleaned the cup in the morning and here is a picture I took after I got home form work (10 hours).

I read on RC that some people had the same starting problem you did and when they opened the pump up, they found the area where the impeller turned to not be very smooth. A little cleanup of the plastic in there and they don't seem to be having the same problem anymore.
