When my 15 year old pump finally let go, it failed by the bottom falling off. It was filled with a light mineral oil which made a big stinky mess of the hot tub I was draining. There had to be at least a pint in there and it was about the weight of kerosene. The bottom fell off because the screws had completely rusted away.

So your sloshing might be oil, maybe you lost a little and the rest is moving around.
