Hello All -
I have the Polaris Turbo Turtle which I believe is the same mechanism as the Polaris 65.
I just bought and replaced both a new piston assembly and randomizer as suggested by the parts store, since it would go across the pool and then just sit there. I do believe I got them back in correctly, but something's wrong. I did ensure to snap the two pieces together.
I don't use the turtle top part, so I can see that there is foamy flow in both the clear cylinders. The ball is in the center partition, which I don't know what good that does - but I had called the store a few days ago when the thing was apart (before trying the new parts) - to make sure that was the correct place for the little white ball. When it first fired back up, there wasn't so much foam and I could see the randomizer spinning (same as the old one did).
Well, it only goes backward. When I hold it up, either vertical or horizontal, the front jets are on full stream. There aren't any more pieces to replace other than those two, so I must have something out of place.
Can anyone please suggest me what to check or redo?
Thank you so much!
