Why doesn't it screw onto my bottle anymore. Same bottle and same pump. Only worked once.

Make sure you unscrew it all the way to loosen it before you mount it onto your bottle.Don't over tighten it. It just needs to be snug.

There's a certain way it has to screw on to the bottle with a little patience it's easy to figure out good luck

I've only taken it off once but mine worked. I installed it, took it off and reinstalled it. Perhaps I'm in for a surprise but good so far

This may help. I've discovered a Stop Line just under the white pump assembly on the cap that tightens down on the bottle. If you loosen the cap all the way, it slides on completely and allows the pump to seat better on the bottle. NOT loosening it enough caused the problem some of you are describing. Loosen all the way, drop the pump on bottle and tighten as usual.

You have kinda push down & then screw it on. There is a stop line on the pump, if u don't stop it will mess up. But mine comes loose after using it a few times but I just tighten it again.

The bottle does not need to be twisted on. You may have run out of the "gas" in the cartridge in the back and need to replace it. Or, if it is a fairly new cartridge, you may have a faulty one. I had that happen once and when I put in a different cartridge everything worked just fine. I took the faulty one back to the store and they replaced it free, hopefully your merchant will as well if this is the case. I hope this helps.

So sorry I haven't responded sooner, been having major internet problems. Have you "squeezed" the trigger back towards the bottle? If you did, and it didn't work, it may be defective.

My sprayer stopped working too. It's too bad they put such a cheap sprayer with such a nice bottle. Anyway, I think the sizing of the sprayer is fairly standard cuz I went to Container Arts and bought a small (travel size) pump sprayer. I went home, took the pump off and screwed it onto the glass bottle, and wa la! It fit.

Did you insert it into the white hole/valve thing? maybe you need to insert it just a bit further. Otherwise sounds like you did everything right. Maybe your pump is bad, try another. Good luck!

Press down on it. It's a pump. If your's doesn't work, it's probably broken.

I had one that came and then the pump was broken. I just opened it and used without the pump. Every other bottle has been fine

I'm not familiar with that bottle but it did not screw onto my Mobil ATF bottle. It is too small. If I had to guess, I'd say it would not fit. It works to carefully hold the pump and bottle together and pump the fluid. I did this while changing tranny fluid from under the car. Hope this helps. D

If it isn't clicking then you have a defective vacu vin. I love mine & it works very well. It does not take 50 pumps to work. Send it back and request a replacement.

Maybe the "O" ring slipped off that creates the seal for the bottle? Sorry, need more info to really be of any help.

The same thing happened to me! I had another bottle that was almost empty so I was able to substitute one dispenser for another. I think that they are defective and should be returned.

We had the same problem. Tried to contact the manufacturer and they were no help whatsoever . We were told there is no warentee on the pump at all. It was a very poor product.

I never bought it with the pump. When I do buy a product with a pump, sometimes I would have the same problem. Did you try pushing it down while turning it to the direction to open? I hope this helps. If you tried everything, then it could be the pump that is defective. I've had that happen too.

I pumped 6 Quarts of that exact Gear Oil with this pump and it does not screw onto the bottle. Really not a bog deal.If I were using it daily, then I would want it to thread on for convenience.

I would maybe buy a new one.. it could work but I wouldn't chance it. I always drink the full bottle before testing.

Mine was a little tricky too but I just unscrewed the whole top and when I put it back I tried twisting the pump around again and it popped up and started working! I really didn't do anything special though.
