Just to be sure we understand you: You're saying that with the city water disconnected the pump cycles and water flows out the city water port? Not the tank fill port? If this is so it must be the check valve on the city water connection port is bad. You might try removing the screen and operating the valve by hand while spraying water into it. A bit tricky, but maybe there is some crud stuck in the valve. If that doesn't work the valve will have to be replaced.
