     I have the same problem, but only with one faucet - all others work fine.

    Hi!

    I think you have an air leak on the suction side of your pump. It could also
    be that the bladder in the pressure tank has a defect / hole but I would
    check a fitting on the pump suction side. It could also be in the pump, but
    I would check the fittings first.

    I have found that long thin pieces of Saran wrap wrapped around a suction
    side fitting can help diagnose. If more than one fitting is leaking, it will
    be harder to find.

         Having solved a few of the Big Issues on out four-year old boat,
    we are now looking at the little annoying ones. Such as the Fuzzy
    Water Problem.
         All of the water coming out of the taps in heads and galley is
    as bubbly as the head on a Guiness in an Irish pub. Fill a glass and
    it is two-thirds bubbles. Of course it settles down eventually...all
    that is needed is patience!
         Pushing the water is an absolutely conventional system...a
    Jabsco ParMax 4H pump...a Groco PST-1 pressure tank and a Groco
    filter. Where do all those bubbles come from?
         I suppose we could take the Fuzzy Water Problem to our favorite
    boat yard but would feel pretty foolish doing so. Do any of my
    learned friends on the list have an idea?
