    This document provides a flowchart to diagnose issues with pumps. It outlines steps to determine if the traveling valve or standing valve is leaking, and then provides subsequent tests and actions based on the results. These include running fluid pound tests, pressurizing tubing, inspecting pumps, and making repairs if needed to address leaks in the valves, plunger, barrel or other component parts. The overall process allows identification of leaks in different pump components through a series of pressure and fluid tests.
