    Hi Ivnhinbb and welcome to The Plumbing Page on AMHD.
    You piggybacked on a 6 year old dead thread so I gave you one of your own. Before you post look in the upper left hand corner for the date..
    I agree with John. Remove the faulty counter top air gap and replace it with a soap dispenser and then run a high loop air gap. Good luck, Tom
