I just changed out the recirc pump on my livewell. Just preventive maint., and to put an keepalive system in. The old pump still works good, so I attached a hose to the inlet long enough to reach the lake, put a 12 volt plug on, in case I have a fill pump go out. Just put hose in the lake, plug it in, and fill the livewell. If you have an old but usable pump around, it might come in handy.
