Jaydee his drawing shows the res b4 the pump...I would think at that point the system the pressure would be quite low if not negative. When i cracked mine it was actually drawing air into the system. I agree that the discharge would be a precarious location, which is why mine is in the return.

I maybe wrong and I will double check and post back.
So is my statement above correct? I can't see how pressure would be different in one spot as opposed to another in a WC loop. maybe were volocity picks up and slams into a corner or something?
