That is a good suggestion about the inside couplings.

No, I have not tried to reduce the flow with a valve. I am running one sprinkler and if I reduce the flow I do not think the rain bird sprinkler will turn.

I'm thinking about adding another well and connecting them. This should give me more water volumn.

In the beginning I run the pump for 4 hours with out stopping. I believe I am over pumping the well. I ran the pump last night for one hour and it did fine. This morning it ran for one hour and did fine. Over pumping could be by problem and if I added another well, this might help my problem. Does that sound logical?

Thanks for your suggestions.
