HI I just got an older cal spa about 10-14 years old.
I filled it up according to the book and bleed the system out but only two out of 11 wall jets are pumping water.And they are pumping it very hard.All 4 of the floor jets work.There are 3 of the wall jets that produce a little water but with out much force at all.
I just got done reading one of the other posts and once it stops raining here I will go outside and try to plug the two working jets for a couple of minutes and see if the rest of the jets kick on (hopefully it is just an air pocket) but I was just wondering if there is anything else I should look into that may be the problem.
Thanks for your time.

Check the outside ring of the jets, is it bumpy? If so, you might have the type of jets that you can turn on and off just by simply turning them. If that doesn't do the trick, then you most likely have blockage in the jets themselves. Sometimes you can reach in with a nutdriver and unscrew the nozzle, but in many cases these are glued in and too much force will break em off and then you are in a world of a mess. Also, you might want to check, depending on the age of the spa, for any valvs on the top of the spa, which will enable and disable different jets.
