SoonerFan Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I am setting up my 225 and had bought a used Iwaki MD55RLT. Wired the plug and it isn't working a lick. First, I know the plug is wired correctly. Second, you plug it in and nothing happens, I mean nothing happens. Does anyone have a similarly rated external pump (around 1200 gph with 1" input and output both are MPT)? I am so screwed. Not very happy to say the least. It is 1:30 a.m. and I need this tank up and going for a big event at our house on Friday night. It doesn't have to be Iwaki, but does need to have the 1" MPT outlet/inlet and the similar rating. Thanks a ton. Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirReal63 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Have you tried a good cleaning? If it wasn't cleaned properly when taken out of service the nasties inside could be preventing the impeller from spinning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chatfouz Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 if you need something for just a short time you might try just picking up something from petsmart that will "work". you can aalways return it saturday when you have time to find something that will correctly fiit the bill?

SoonerFan Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 Great news, River City to the rescue!!! Carlos had a panworld that was the exact same rating as the Iwaki. I will work on getting the Iwaki fixed as an emergency backup for myself and others!! Thanks to Carlos and Misti for being a lifesaver. Also, did I mention I picked up one of the three Dustin's Deepwater Acro's will I was there. ; ) Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
