I have the marinetech reactor with two chambers and since i never owned a reactor before the lack of instructions didnt help. proline helped alot though. Id try them.

got a problem. just tried hooking this unit up and got a leak between the pump and riser tube, at the volute specifically. when i talked to Jason he mentioned to lube o-rings with silicone which i did but low and behold i've got myself a fairly substantial leak. i've already tried to remove the silicone to see if it made a diff but nada. any suggestions peeps?

when the unit is apart can you see and hairline crack anywhere? what about burrs along the oring mating surface. if there is any burrs just file them down with a file. inspect the oring all away around to make sure it is perfectly round, if there is a flat spot anywhere replace it. sometimes when the unit is assembled the oring will get pinched or actually rip a piece of the oring off.
