My Eheim Pro 3 2080 is really on the blink atm flow is almost negligable
Impellor shaft is intact and no damage to blades which do spin when powered up.
No trapped air / system was completely torn down and reassembled.
The issue seems to be with pumping power as if I put the output hose over a bucket if flows fine (if a fair bit underpowered compared to before) but if I raise the output hose up to the height of the tank it struggles to pump at all. Its been drained and primed 3 times and stripped down once but its just not doing the job at all thank god I had 2 filters running which coupled with every internal i could scrounge seem to be maintaing water quality for now..
The flow indicator doesnt seem to move much and the really odd thing is if I hold the prime button down then the flow is as it should be its only when I let it go that the flow sucks,
Any suggestions would be welcomed im all out of ideas after draining/repriming/strip down.
