Hello all can any one help with this problem I have a manual flush on my toilet which means you pull up and down to flush. Now it is pumping out water ok but the is no pressure. So means only part of loo is getting washed. Wont give any pressure when pulling up and down seems like air in it. Would be grateful if you anyone can help with this.

We had this problem and took it to our local dealer while travelling home.
All he did was to take out the pump from the toilet and but a big jubilee clip around the 2 pipes at the bottom as a clip had broken.
He put it all back together and its never worked as good as it does now. Saved us the price of a new pump unit.

The base plate of the pump is held on by a small peg with a barb on it much like a fishing hook, but it is prone to breaking off, the base then opens/partly comes off, so you usually get a bit of water out but as u have found not a lot, ive not come across the jubilee clip repair i use a small cable tie, i pass it through the hole where the barbed hook used to be then there is a hole in the bottom of the tube that u can then pass ti through to pull it together, u may not understand this but as soon as u see it you'll be able to work it out.As said previously there are 2 screws under the handle, lift the handle fuly & you'll see them, remove them then lift the top plate, it will be masticed down so u may have to prize it up, then u will see 4 screws going through the plastic plate into the vans side wall, undo them taking care not to drop them into the toilet, then unclip the hoses & lift out the pump unit.

He did try the cable tie method but it kept coming off as he tried to refit it into the tank.
