ya your right. tsp is way too much. although I just pumped some into a teaspoon and it was def more than 1/4. maybe my pump is diff or something, but 10 pumps is def more than a 1/4 tsp for me. i remember those pics put up by n2.
I ended up taking mine apart, separating the tube and the pump and rinsing it all and it seems to be working. If it starts acting up again I think I'm gonna do the same thing you did. Thanks.
