With the previous Brydon made head I had to strip the pump and lubricate it
to get smooth running of the piston. The new one an ITT PAR Toilet - Manual
is better but the problem is still there. Unless I can find a way better to
lubricate the inside of the pump's cylinder and piston I have no other way
then to take the pump apart. Maybe someone has a better way to lubricate
the moving parts.


No need to take the pump apart...just remove the top. And on a Jabsco,
it's easy: on older models, remove the 6 six screws and lift it...newer
models, just loosen the hex nut and lift it. Put a healthy squirt of the
grease into the pump...pump a few time to spread it all over the inside
of the cylinder...replace the top. Should take all of 10 minutes, if
that long.
