Hi Folks! I have a Sears shallow well jet pump 30/50 lb pressure. It works O.K, and the pressure is fine, but one problem: It seems to run too long. When it calls for water, it will run for 5 minutes until it shuts off.I realize that it will run as long as it needs to when it calls for water, but this one runs for 5 minutes after that! The pressure switch has that acorn nut that I was told was an adjustment for the pressure?The water is drawn out of a 50 gallon plastic barrel in my basement, which fills up and then stops with a toilet ball valve.The pump is still running even after it pressurizes the system. any ideas? Thanks!
