HotShot 34 Report post Posted September 5, 2008 Who cares, they're $13, pop on a new one and keep going :) But to answer your question, try messing with the sucker tube, it may have a chunk of something in there... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HotShot 34 Report post Posted September 5, 2008 yeah, I hear ya man. That sucks. I had a few of those nights this week. Give Bob at Pressure Tek a call and order a couple of them so something like that doesn't happen again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott Stone 604 Report post Posted September 5, 2008 There is probably something stuck in there. With the hose out of the chemicals, does it weep water back out of the tube when the machine is running? That is usually a really good sign it is blocked. You can also take the injector apart at the hose barb. Sometimes, if the injector is older, teh bal bearing inthere will get too firmly seated in its seat and needs to be pried loose with a dental pick. If you have an extra, it is probably cheaper and easier to replace it, but it can have a field fix done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
