I've been reading posts and haven't seen this problem: 2 nights ago had no water, later discovered the black plastic pipe had disconnected from the wellhead. I reconnected the pipe and now the problem...the pump is not kicking in until about 10psi, seems to stop pumping between 50 & 60 psi, but the (relay?) switch stays on, the gauge quickly -in 4 to 5 seconds- goes up to between 90 and 100 plus, the switch stays on a few more seconds, then stops. This may not be related to the pipe problem, it may have been working like this for a while but we didn't notice - or look at - the gauge until then.
Is the pressure really going to 100 psi, or is the switch or gauge just not working properly?
If it is going up to and over 100 psi, can this thing blow up?
Since the pump is working, can I (hopefully) assume that is not the problem?
Thanks for listening, hope someone can shed some light.
