The filter is brand new and the pump is brand new focus svt. I cleaned everthing inside and around the bucket really well when it was all out. The only part I reused was the old sock. The sock that came with the focus assembly would not fit into the contour bucket so I cleaned the old sock really well and put it back in. I really doubt that it would be causeing the -10psi issue but at this point I am willing to try anything again to get it straightened out.
