Had my 160 swc running fine , cleaned collection cup and return sock . When i turned it back on it went wacko and now bubbles over . I have opened exhaust and air , what could cause this? if i put my finger over the water intake it makes it all better any ideas?

Soap or something like soap on the cup or sock.
Did you use anything new, new additives, etc.?
