I don't know. I think I'm going to try to keep chiseling on it with a long screw driver and take my chances with air refills at the dive shop. What a nightmare. I really don't want to have to drain the pool, but that's what it's sound like the only solution may be.

**One note: When my skimmer level is nornal l(half way up with water), and the pump is set on main drain, the air coming into the pump seems to disappear.

I have a simple 2-way Jandy, turn on way for the skim, one for the main drain. It is a brand new valve. 1 week old.

This makes no sense to me.

Why would a correct water level in the skimmer (or lack thereof) dictate me getting air in the pump when the valve is set on main drain???
