    Most times I get stuck on a troubleshooting job it's because i assumed something when I shouldn't have. When things don't make sense it's time to go back to ground zero and look at everything with an unjaundiced eye.

    I would ask myself, What is undeniably true? And then I would ask, What are all the things that can cause that?

    There is definitely water hammer happening. 

    What can cause that?  

    That forced me to look beyond the steam.
