Hamstar99 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Air locked in the pipe? Can happen if you have a lot of pipe. Maybe try and force some water through with the garden hose or something till it is coming out he outlet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amtiskaw Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Try lubing the seal with Vaseline. Remove it completely, clean and dry it, then lube it before putting it back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
