prob w oceanrunner pump

[405ndn]

i got an old aquamedic skimmer that had the aquabee pump on it. i replaced the pump with an oceanrunner 2700 w the needle wheel. the old pump had a built in spot to hook up the airline but the new pump doesn't have this. how can i get air to the pump? i tried a few things but have had no good results. any ideas?

I had this same problem a while ago. I think you have to buy the special-made Ocean Runner pump that has the fittings. I'm sure there's a DIY way to do it though

If it is the same as the octopus 3000, then I have a air venture that goes on the intake, the air venture came stock on my pump and it is new.

anyone out there know a DIY way to get my skimmer going? I've been without one for awhile so i'm really eager to get this going. I've looked on the web but can't seem to find anything..

I'd try a post in the diy forum. I'm constantly amazed in there
