Water pump woes!!

This is a little off the Jayco side but on my Peterbilt I have a water pump that when you turn on the faucet it surges up and down to almost nothing and then full and then nothing, well you get the picture?

Anyway the bathroom shower works great its just in the kitchen sink, Any Ideas?

thanks

Could it be the big faucet? Its pretty close to whats in my camper. Or could I have a water pump going out? But why does it work good in the shower?

A possible clogged filter screen in the faucet? It's the only thing I can think of being that you say your water flow appears to be normal in your bathtub.

I have to clean my faucet filter sometimes as well. I just unscrew it from the faucet and turn it over and blow it clean running water thru it backwards haha... Then I screw it back on. Doesn't take much to clog them up...

Took it off and ran it thru a straight line with no filter or screen and the same thing is happening?

Just tried it again and now it's doing it in the shower too? Acts like its not getting enough air?

Maybe your tank vent is clogged and it is creating a vapor lock. Try it with the fill cap off and see if the same thing is happening.

It filles from water hose connection only, no free flow filling available? I will look into it further this weekend.
