Have three outlets: sink, shower, side faucet, no water. Pump runs but no water. Either a blockage or pump is not performing. Pump is Shurflo 8050-204-033. Seems it is no longer available. Anyone know the direct replacement model - or something else to troubleshoot.

First, did you pull the screen filter just before the pump and check for debris? Also try pulling the hose on the output side of the pump and the run it to see if it is in fact pumping. Many times, one or the the other will clear the problem. Good luck.

If there is a screen (filter) in the feed from the tank to the pump it needs to be checked for blockage. In any case, what is important is the flow rate(GPM) of the new pump and it's specified application. The application is fresh water pump. The flow rate most likely will be printed on the old pump.That pump was rated at 30psi and about 1.5 GPM Your new pump should be sized to that rate , perhaps a bit higher but probably not lower. A new pump by the same manufacturer may have the same bolt pattern making the install easier.
This pump would probably be a proper replacement
