I'm really here because when I prime it, I have to spray immediately and then the pressure is gone and I have to pump again to spray a second time. Any thoughts on this problem.

Do a through cleaning as described in this blog, and refill with oil. After each use, priming/pumping, before you put it away, just turn the top just enough to release the pressure. You'll hear it the air pressure release. Put the pump/cap on and next time you go to use it, just hand tighten the valve cap (the piece you remove to refill). Once I started doing that it worked really well, and reduced heavy duty cleaning to once a year. Release the pressure when you're thu, and retighten before you pump. See if that helps! ssandee51https://www.blogger.com/profile/17090536658799470500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1313143544219095171.post-87474443180728450532013-09-17T05:15:23.294-05:002013-09-17T05:15:23.294-05:00Thank you for the tip!
