Report back if that makes it start or not.

Pouring Hot water on a cold IP or cool/cold water on a hot IP is not a good idea. The tolerances in the pump are very close, and a sudden temp change could cause a problem.
Edit:
"As per post #9, and reading the link, Iam all wet in what I wrote here. I guess I should say pouring hot or cold water on the IP will greatly improve it`s performance."
We are packing for a move, so I can`t quote the source I read it from, my manuals are packed away until we unpack in Oct/Nov.
