My guess would be a bad vacuum switch or a leak on the suction side.

Eisboch (two Vacuflush heads operating for 6 years with no problems, knock

Dittos on that. Could also be a crack in the pump bellows.

Best people to talk to is Northeast Marine Sanitation in Farmingdale,
NY: http://www.northeastsanitation.com/ They're great! They've talked
me through more than one problem with our Vacuflush. Among other things
(including any part you could possibly use), they sell a handy kit with
replacement seals, duckbill valves, a specially designed pressure guage
to aid diagnosis, and a repair manual. I now keep one onboard in case
of a failure while cruising.
