Also, if you replace the O-rings in the lift pump it should restore the performance and that will rule out another possible problem.

I'll look for that fitting.
I just picked up my O-ring kit at my mail-box, thanks for that. I have a box at a UPS store, pretty handy, all of the mail order buys I make are waiting safely for me when I make it down there, had probably been sitting for several days.
I'll put most of those in in the next few days.
