I agree with whiteice669. Bet something got sucked up in the pump and plugged the beckett nozzle.

i've got a pm bullet 2 and never have had that problem. i'd disassemble the injector to see that it's clean and reassemble according to the instructions. check where the injector sits in the base to ensure its clear. does your injector have a control for volume of air? you should be able to have the skimmer operational for water flow without any air. then slowly try to turn on the air.
good luck

I would take the beckett out make sure it isn't plugged up at all (clean it up) then try again making sure your valves are all open.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I tried most of them now. Still nothing...

Same thing keeps happening. Im so confused.

Did you put the beckett back in with the correct orientation?

Well this started happening before I had ever touched the beckett at all. It worked fine when I hooked it all up for the first time. Then I turned it off and took off the air intake valve which is just a threaded fitting. Put that back on and started the pump and water came spraying out. So nothing to do with the beckett I dont think. I did take the beckett apart later and as far as I know it was put back the same.

Can you take a picture of how you've got it set up? Sorry, just having a hard time picturing how this could happen. If it was a blockage downstream of the beckett you'd think you'd have found it by now. Weird. Anyhow I think it must be a blockage of some kind .. or yeah, maybe the injector is in backwards ... Dunno, sorry. I have a PM beckett too but I've never had THIS happen .. usually a small piece of gunk or snail shell gets lodged in my beckett and I notice it because the water level is super low in the skimmer, but not shooting out the air intake :neutral:

Yeah I can take a pic as soon as I get home. That would be great if you could check it out and tell me if anything looks wrong to you. I have gone over the darn thing a whole bunch of times to see if its set up wrong but as far as I can tell, its not and should be running fine...Obviously thats not the case though. Maybe the injector is backwards??? Im not sure about which way it should be but you would think the skimmer never would have worked then. It did work for a few days no problem. It was just when I shut it down and then started it again that it stopped working right.

agreed - a picture would be useful.

Wondering if this could be a problem...I bought this skimmer used from a member here and it was modded a bit, so I do not know exactly how it came from the manufacturer. One thing I have noticed when I look at pics of beckett heads is that when you take them apart, they have a few rings that hold then pieces together like in the pic below...Mine does not have these. Not sure if thats anything but I am sooooo lost right now on why thing thing is not working.
