Air bound sounds like an intake issue.. maybe. 
In Response To: Is using a plumbers snake ()
() My experience is that if the handle is "springy" then it is an issue with getting water through the intake. I do see that you describe the handle as not moving at all which sounds like something in the pump.
As Gran'pa used to say, "you only THINK you have problems until the sewer backs up."
