sounds like the impeller is stuck a bit of light oil should do the trick

cheers but not up on technical stuff where is the impellar? is it in the middle of the pump?
-
Ive never taken one apart mate but it s probably under the top cover??
I would carefully unscrew the top and have a look inside to see if anything is jammed or seized>
Cheers Dave

Hit it with a big hammer ;D
It might just free it up, if not at least it's very satisfying smashing an irritating bit of kit to smithereens ;D ;D
