ibosley :

Have you checked your hose coming into it? There is typically a small strainer right where the garden hose connects to the pump housing. Also, your pressure regulator on the pump could have rattled itself to the weak position, you simply control it by turning the knob clockwise for more pressure. Other than that the pump itself could just be worn out, when was the last time you replaced the oil in it?

Customer :

it has been about 2 years but i don't use it regular

ibosley :

Did you try the other two recommendations I suggested?
