    About the only thing we can probably guess from what you mention is that it's low on fluid.

    You don't mention if you checked the fluid level, if you haven't..do so before replying.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Change the fluid and filter and see if it helps at all. It kind of sounds like you have a plugged filter.
