Here is the situation.
I have a 5 inch well that has water at 70feet, and a stuck submersible at 100 feet. This pump is connected to the surface with a small yellow nylon rope, 3 electrical wires, and a 1 ¼ black poly. The pump hasn’t run in a couple of years, as the old timer who owned the property seems to have given up on maintenance.
The pump hasn’t budged up or down. We have hooked it on to a come-a-long and pulled pretty hard on the rope and the poly. We have also left the tension on the rope and hose for 24 hours. We have also tried tapping the pump down, but it doesn’t seem to want to go down either.
What could be causing this? How long would a professional take to get this out? I don’t know f there is a torque arrester, but if there is will it get stuck down there? Any other ideas on getting this pump out?
