I have a new pump and I am getting little to no suction. I get the same thing when I just recirculate. I know I keep getting a lot of air in the filter. What could be the problem? This is driving me crazy :x

Welcome to TFP!
That sounds like an air leak on the suction side of the pump. The first thing to check is the pump strainer basket lid. The lid needs to have a clean seal, fit properly, be properly tightened down. After that look at the plumbing connections to the pump and any pipe that was replaced when the pump was replaced.

Thank you!
I checked to make sure the lid fit properly and tightened down. I checked the plumbing connections to the pump and they look good and tight. I have 3 skimmers and the are all full of water.
