    As for assembly, the problem started well before I dissassembled it. And I made sure to align things back exactly. Can the top plate attached to the valve handle rotate out of alignment?

    It sure can!

    On one side of the top plate, there is a flat side that matches up with the flat on the bottom. The easiest way to check is if the normal (filter) position is facing away from the filter tank.

    Please let us know what you find.

    Having done construction and service for 4 pool companies in 4 states starting in 1988, what I know about pools could fill a couple of books - what I don't know could fill libraries
