Try turning the pump off before switching to SPA and then turning the pump back on. Many pumps when turned on/off create enough pressure to break the seal on orings and cause a short burst of water from the seal. This can also damage the rings on sand filters when the pump is not turned off prior to switching from filter to backwash/recirculate/waste. Summary: always turn the pump off before changing the direction of waterflow.

And there could also be another valve to open or close to accomplish the task.

A plugged up fuel filter, a faulty fuel pressure regulator or a faulty fuel pump.

It could but not likely. Do a fuel pressure test and be sure to replace the fuel filter. If you have low or no fuel pressure I would suspect the fuel pump is at fault.
