Welcome aboard, DBS88.!

You have acquired a very nice looking pump.

I would have started with the packing glands on the stiff side just to make sure they are lined up perfectly and not over tightened. Perhaps you already checked.

Beyond that, it may just need breaking in.
How much pressure is required to run it?
