        I have a residential well with pressure tank that seems to be cycling too often. After the pump comes on, it runs for only about 10 seconds. By tapping on the pressure tank it appears that it fills about half way, perhaps a little less.
        I’ve also noticed that the pressure gauge is stuck on 50 psi and apparently not functioning.
        Once I get the gauge working, any ideas on how solve this rapid cycling?
        Thanks.
