![]() Sorry GSP just looked up your skimmer and it is not what I thought, just sounded the same as what had happened to me once.

![]() 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.

![]() 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.
