Default CoraLife Super Skimmer 33000

My foam fractionator seems to give up the ghost, sporadically, and stop foaming. If I blow through the air tube it seems to help sometimes. Could this be to do with the venturi? If so, what to do? Thanks for any help!

Turns out nothing wrong with skimmer, but the operator. I found a blockage in the air line.
