If you blow down a short piece of hose - it's easy to blow water out the end. If you blow down a long hose it's a real struggle to blow water out of the end due to friction. You may have to make your pipes wider (less friction) to get your flow back.

if you have a mixer tap
Hand tightly over the spout blocking water flow.
Open hot tap fully.
Open cold tap for 20 sec.
Close cold tap, close hot.
Test.
It does not always work first time good luck.
