A pump sprayer is a very simple device. It is useful for spraying fertilizers and pesticides as well as cleaners for decks and fencing. It's frustrating when your pump sprayer doesn't work well. one very common problem is when the sprayer sputters. If your sprayer has an inconsistent stream and it doesn't shoot a uniformly shaped pattern, you need to take apart the spray nozzle and clean out anything that has lodged itself into the nozzle assembly. This information has already been posted, but there's another reason why your sprayer could be sputtering.
If your sprayer has intermittent output there's a good chance your feed tube in the bottom of the tank isn't able to take in your solution quick enough. When the tube is at the very bottom of the tank it will create a current when drawing solution that doesn't allow a constant intake of the fluid. All you have to do is increase the size of the intake at the bottom of the tube. Remove the straw and cut a high diagonal slit that allows solution to enter the tube from the side. This will allow the straw to take in fluid even when the spraying creates a current in the very bottom of your tank. This solved the spraying problems in the bottom of my pump sprayers.
