I took a couple of pics. I think the model # is 8681A-HX-01.

Does SAE 60 oil sound correct? That is on the tag, thanks.

okay that helps first thing to try is cleaning the unloader/bypass.this part allows the water pressure to bypass and maintain pressure
the black **** is what i'm talking about, get a small troothbrush and some soap, a pad of paper & pen
remove the black ****, count the number of turns when you loosen it, write it down.make a alinement mark before removing.
next remove spring
loosen shaft nut.
you should be able pull the assembly out.
now inspect seal,seat, and plunger,and the clean, hope hopefully it just has junk build up, tell me if you find any damage. reassemble. see if this works. if not then disassemble the two cap bolts, inspect then clean. reassemble.
this is a rebuildable pump. parts are still avaible.
let me know what you find.

On edit: it looks like their is a roll pin that will have to be removed first before the black **** will come off, not sure but i looks like it on the pic just alittle bit down from the top of the ****

I got the unloader apart. There are 3 o-rings on the shaft near the bottom that had a little bit of crud on them. There is a steel ball inside with a spring, maybe two. The ball will move if you push on it.
The black **** had a set screw. There was a roll pin in the shaft below the ****. When I put it back together, I noticied that you can move the shaft down about 1/8 inch. This is before I put the spring and **** back on. I cleaned it up without taking it totally apart. I am pretty sure it is clean.
Anyway, I tried it and got a couple of pulses that it was starting to build pressure but that was it. Water is coming out at line pressure. I took off the two large caps on top of the pump. What the item is below them doesn't want to come out and I didn't try to force them. What is the part for that sticks out of the pump end? It looks like has an adjusting screw but has no ****. Thanks
