well, I re-installed the t-stat after seeing it function properly on the stove top. today I tested it in a barrel and on the water. it pumped in a most beautiful way the whole day! i’m guessing jeff was right. it sat for a couple years and was probably stuck a bit. here are some pics of the water pumping and of the innards.
one less thing I have to worry about! 😀
