    Greensand filter with Fleck 2510SXT leaks at BLFC, is this to be expected?

    Ok, good to know, thanks Bannerman. It seems to be drawing ok, but I can't really work on it for another few weeks. When I do I will try to reset everything again, and possibly replace some parts again too. One thing, at either end of the tube is a brass insert (like this...
