That 160 lbs of salt would take 53.33 gallons of water to dissolve all of it. And your softener probably doesn't use more than 5 gallons of water per regeneration. So two regens and you'd still have 130 lbs in the tank.
And it may not have done a regeneration yet if it's only been a couple days. How many days between regenerations do you have it set for?
That cracked injector cap should allow a water leak and/or no suction on the brine line.
