Anyway, we get water, but with air. I’m not sure where to go from here. I’ll try the lines again, but when I turn the main to the direction of the pipe, I don’t get a water feed. Should I be looking else where?
Thanks!

My guess is that the winterization valve is part-way open instead of fully closed.
Near the water pump is a three-way valve. It allows the water pump to pull from either the water tank or a short piece of flexible tubing. (In the fall you insert that tubing into a jug of RV antifreeze--not automotive antifreeze--and run all the faucets and toilet until all the lines are filled with antifreeze.)
After the antifreeze has been run in (in the fall or spring), you turn the valve so water is drawn from the water tank only. My guess is that the valve isn't completely turned and is drawing water from both the tank and tubing.
The water pump and valve are usually hidden behind a cabinet or screwed-on panel. You can run the pump and follow the sound to find it. The valve will be easy to spot.
