I had a small water leak in the basement and traced it to the water pump. Looks like it got bounced around quite a bit, the mount had pulled out in the back and was hanging down on the floor. There is a small transparent bowl that was not quite tight enough. I snugged it up, then took off the mount and reattached the rear stud on the back of the water pump to the rubber mounting bracket. A little tight crawling in the basement and I had to remove the wall around the plumbing, but really was pretty easy to pull it all apart then put it back together, 1 hour tops. Regards, Larkin
Ok, added a couple images, hope it works this time.
Leak!
After I removed the wall, could tell the pump was the culprit
Here you can see that its tilted forward and the back stud on the pump has pulled out of the rubber mount. I had the remove the screws holding the rubber mount to the floor then removed the pump from the mount. Removed the rear stud and re assembled with it attached to the mount 
View looking at the far side of the pump, small filter bowl. Was loose.
Tight quarters!

Just fixed a pump leak on mine. The hose was pushed past the stop so the clamp did not seal. The hose could be twisted on the nipple which leaked with the pump on. Buddy had a PEX crimping tool and spare clamp. Cut the hose and worked the clamp off, new clamp and it's water tight.

Nope, no pictures here either. Yes, lots of room to work under there. Found the check valve going into the water heater was leaking on my shakedown run. A little Teflon tape solved the problem.

The white line in your picture was where my leak was, the line was pushed beyond the stop and the crimped clamp. The clamp was over the little plastic stops and leaked. |
