Help with water pump bypass
I was ready to install the water pump bypass kit I bought but have a question about a plastic cup like thing on the suction side. I hope it is visible in the photos. The white pipe from the fresh water tank comes up thru the floor and there is a hand nut where it connects to the cup thing. On top of it is a white sticker that has the manufactured date April 2015. Then that piece connects to the pump. (The second picture of the pump looks like it may load upside down and I don't see how to rotate it) I started to unscrew the cup thing and it hissed like there was some pressure. By the way, pump is off but I haven't drained the water lines yet.
So I'm wondering what the cup might be?
And I'm thinking to install the bypass kit, I just undo the hand nut, screw on the bypass valve, then put the hand nut with the water pipe from the fresh water tank back on .
Any comments are appreciated. Thanks.
