Those are the exact inserts that I've used. Here's the clamps: clamps <https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H7YMVUO/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_7?smid=&psc=1> I'm not too keen on buying from Amaz... so if you know of any other source for these clamps let everyone know. I have installed two clamps per insert and did rotate them as indicated. That just seemed like good practice at the time. When installing the pipe onto these I used a camp stove and a pot of boiling water. Stick the end of the pipe in the boiling water for a little bit and they go on nicely. If it gets hard part way, I stick the pipe end and insert both into the boiling water to finish the job.
I think I will not need any more inserts or clamps for this job, it looks like the pitless adapter is the problem. I'll pull the pump tomorrow and see if I can just replace the o-ring in it or if it needs something more. Thanks for all the suggestions.
