    Tried my old pressure gauge as a test and it read 10 psi just like it always did to start (the reason I had replaced it at the beginning of last season was because the weather had made the plastic window very difficult to see thru.) My other pressure gauge was showing 5! I thought that was the issue since the water stream felt strong! Thanks again for the feedback!

    One way to check your gauge is to turn off the pump. The gauge should go to zero.
