Hi all,
I have an EcoTech Vectra M1 and I think the o-ring is causing me issues and needs to be replaced. I can't find this anywhere online though, but I would have thought this would be something that needs replacing periodically?
I had an issue last night where the pump turned on but made a strange noise like it was struggling to start. (It did start) but then an hour or so later it turned off due to overheating.
I took it apart and the o-ring was under the rotor assembly and pushing this out from where it should sit. I removed the o-ring and plugged it back in and it ran overnight without issue. I'm not sure if by removing the o-ring it'll cause any issue or not, but I'm thinking it's safest to replace it.
Does anyone know what o-ring size I need to replace it? What material? The guides online barely mention this part.
Thanks,
Chris
