Ok, not to jack this thread but my son's 32AT doing the exact same thing. When he bought the boat was that way, found a B/S setup fitting on the pressure side of the pump, removed that and no change, so figured it had killed the pump. just had engines out to service and replaced pump with a 99 1 ton hydro boost truck pump(used these before) kept the pressure relief valve and spring from original pump(have not idea what they had on it) anyway no change super stiff. He replaces the filter again no change. I understand how the setup works and have installed whole setups before. its a twin B/B full system...thanks Rob
