The water drain on bottom is producing a half a gallon of water a day sometimes more . Water pump got burnt out and waiting on new one but should it be pumping this much water out?  Live in New England

    That's condensate and it's a byproduct of combustion with a modulating condensing boiler. 
    It's normal. I assume you are waiting for a new condensate pump?

    At 171 there should not be much water flowing from that tube?
    What is the smaller Pex tube connected to?
