MY DOLPHIN RUNS A FEW SECONDS THEN STOPS

by L MEEKER
(OMAHA NE)

MY DOLPHIN RUNS A FEW SECONDS THEN STOPS...WILL NOT RESTART. IT IS ABOUT 4 YRS OLD. IT IS USED ABOUT 3 MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR FOR ONLY A FEW HOURS A WEEK. POOL STORES IN OMAHA WILL NOT EVEN LOOK AT IT. EVERY NUMBER THAT I CALL TO FIND A REPAIRMAN REFERS ME TO A DIFFERENT NUMBER...NO ONE WILL FIX IT. WHAT IS AN OLD LADY TO DO?? WILL I HAVE TO BUY A NEW ONE THAT I CAN NOT AFFORD????? HELP!

IMPELLER SHAFT MAY BE STUCK. REMOVE IMPELLER COVER. IF IMPELLER DOESNT TURN FREELY, REMOVE SCREW AND GENTLY AND CAREFULLY PULL OR PRY IT OFF.SPRAY WD 40 AROUND WHERE THE SHAFT ENTERS THE MOTOR COMPARTMENT. VERTICALLY, PUT AN ADJUSTABLE DOWN ONTO THE SHAFT. (IT HAS FLAT SPOTS ON IT) PUT A SCREW DRIVER IN THE HOLE IN THE HANDLE OF THE WRENCH. GENTLE WORK BACK AND FORTH.
