I've just fitted a strainer to my shurflo water pump and now I can't prime the pump.

I've tried taking it off and priming it without the strainer and still no luck...

Now im a pump down and loads if work to catch up on [emoji21][emoji21][emoji21]

Any idea?

Disconnect the hose going out of your pump at the hose reel end, turn on the pump and suck until the water comes through.

Is your pump the right way up?
Is the hose going the correct way through the pump?
Is there a blockage in the house or tank outlet?

Try disconnecting the second pump and priming the first one, the once that’s primed then try the second?

What happens when you disconnect the hose before the pump?
Does water come out then?
