Is this pump,. one of those flexible impeller pumps? They can not be run dry-- So-- can you lubricate the flex. impeller with something slippery, and compatible with what you are circulating-- or pumping. (Not drinking water, or a fish tank, right?)
If this is a regular centrifugal pump, is it possible that something is caught between the impeller and the housing, when it is all tightened up?-- can you turn the impeller by hand, thru the inlet opening? Will the motor start it with the housing removed?
