This is a common issue with the Octo skimmers I have. I run everything from the cheapy ones that use the OTP pumps to the Hurricone Cat-3E in my LFS. The OTP pumps are very prone to needing are blown in the venturi after power loss. I do also have one that needs to be jarred a little to restart, other than that, I can't complain.
