So without a website I can't attach a picture to my reply?
How do you download pictures to the gallery?
ok so what you have to do is find the happy spot for the bleader valve so the water in your overflow is about 1/2 way between the tank level and the level at which it starts sucking air. once you get it to this point it won't go up and down anymore.
