perhaps the diaphragm has a crack in it? needs only to be tiny and the air will
leak out and the pump not work.

Subject: "struggling with my old solo diaphragm"
I recently purchased a new 4-gal SOLO diaphragm sprayer. It worked
great for the first hour or so and I was very glad that I purchased
it.
Now it's got this weird thing going on. You pump it a few times and
it feels 'pumped' but will not spray. I guess this means that the
outlet is clogged.
It's a nice, clean, pump that's had nothing that wouldn't pass
through panty hose mesh poured into it. What a hassle to think of
completely disassembling it to find that blockage.
Or is it not a blockage and just a quirk?
Yesterday I picked up a new 3-gal Shindaiwa backpack sprayer. What a
dream it appears to be!!
