I soaked it in vinegar two months ago and the impeller fits fine, turns fine.....it's like the motor has trouble getting started....and I'm not sure how old it is I got it from someone who got it from someone and not sure who they got it from......
 
Hey John thanks for chiming in.....didn't want to hassle you with it. Do you know who I should call?
 
Coralvue has changed the way they market their products and now sells them through the same supplier your local fish store gets his products. You can use AC or MCR as they can both get parts for these pumps, But as far as warranty goes that is for the original buyer only with proof of purchase. IME i have seen 2 of these fail and both were from Rusted out Magnets on the Impeller, So you may be able to replace that if it's the problem.
