I'm not sure how old it is -- the previous home owner left it for me -- but it looks pretty good.
I've opened it and cleaned it and removed screws and pulled out hair and gunk and...
Never had this problem before -- but I plug it in - and nothing. I pull it up and stare at it --- give it a Fonzie tap -- lower it back in -- bubbles -- it moves, then it stops.
Try all this again -- it runs fine. Stops. Seems like it runs better on the flat ground and stops on sides -- but then again, maybe not.
OK -- been running back and forth and looking at it -- it stops. I raise it up so that the impeller out flow at the top is slightly above water -- it spews bubbly air -- and then starts working --- until it stops shortly thereafter.
Suggestions?
