Wasn't planning on swapping out a broken sewage/waste pump this afternoon, but sometimes that happens.

I had went downstairs to get my fish filleting board and heard something running that shouldn't have been. Motor on the pump was spinning constantly. Figuring it was just a bad float switch, got the pipes undone and cover off the crock to discover it was full of water. Oh, goody, not the float.

The impeller on the pump decided it wanted to be in several pieces; making it hard to actually move any water.

Luckily, the previous owner of our place left an old pump here and years ago I tested it and it worked fine. So, it's in there now and all is well; but going to get a new one ASAP.
