I already tried plumber's tape and that did not fix the problem.
Try using plumber tape on the G3 where it screws together. That fixed mine from coming apart.

These cleaners have a diaphragm inside that opens and closes that causes the unit to travel. If the diaphragm is bad, it will just stay still. Right above the handle there is a nut, separate the top part of the cleaner and you should see a white tube. Push that white tube downward and pull it out of the bottom of the unit. You should see the rubber diaphragm, check to see that it is free of debris and if it is distorted. The opening inside the diaphragm should look like a fairly uniform ****, not a huge gap. If it looks like there is a large opening inside, replacing it will make it run like new. Hope this helps.

One of the most common problems with these pool cleaners is the hose. If the hose is not long enough, it will not cover the entire pool. You might need additional hose. Also, make sure that your hose is weighted correctly and the water pressure is correct.

The filter may be clogged. If you have a multi-port valve that you use to backwash, set it to "recirculate" and see if your suction improves. If it does then the filter needs to be cleaned out. If there is no difference the issue may be a clogged impeller or some restriction in the suction line. Has the pressure been running high?
