After a search, I realize I am not the first to have this problem, but I couldn't find where someone posted the solution... OK...Wayne burner, 3000 psi, 8 gpm HydroTek. Gray smoke, then it sounds/looks like my rig has an afterburner! (Kind of cool, but yet not.) Temp is set to 125 to 150...

So I'm working yesterday and all of a sudden, the engine starts to "bog down" with the trigger open. Release the trigger and it ran fine. Eventually, it died, but I was able to restart. It then would run and seemingly choke to death, but the chock didn't move. Gets plenty of gas - appears to...

I have a new 8gpm/3000psi 2-man rig that would like to: a) have an unloader that relieves the "kick". On my 4gpm/3500 rig, I am using a K5 and love it. As I understand it, a flow unloader won't work on a 2-man rig, but there is another (not pressure) type? b) limit the volume to 4 gpm from...

I was asked to refer someone to clean a 3800 sf stucco home in San Diego. If you are skilled at cleaning this type of structure and are licensed and insured, please let me know and I will give you an email address. John Orr 757/718-5442 Are there NO pw's in San Diego on this board? I guess I...

I have a commercial account with stores in Richmond and 2 are made with Dryvit. I am looking for someone with Dryvit experience to refer to them - must be licensed and insured. I'm not looking for compensation, I just want my customer taken care of. The stores open at 10 am and 11 on Sunday and...

I will admit up-front that I have never tried HD-80. Last year, I used Remove from SunBrite and was very pleased with the results, though it didn't do a very good job of stripping the tougher finishes. This year, I ordered SunBrite's new Severe Strip and it is truly an amazing product. I...

I was contacted through my website by a homeowner in the Chicago area with a dryvit home and she is interested in a low-pressure wash. Please email or call me if you are interested AND capable. 757/718-5442 email

For the past few days, I have been noticing a foul odor emanating from my rig. The first time, I attributed it to a leaking septic system or possibly the tide being out. Yesterday, I noticed the odor again, in a neighborhood away from the water and with city sewer, and realized that it was...

Does it matter how long I run my rig if it is in bypass to the tank? I have a small job in the am and the temps will be about 20. I want to start the pw and run it in bypass for about 20 mins to get to the jobsite. Thanks, John

I guess I've seen it all now. I washed a house yesterday - white vinyl. I've cleaned hundreds just like it, except...this one turned color! I downstreamed my usual housewash mix, which has bleach in it, and when I went back to rinse, ALL the siding had an orange stain. I've never seen...

I have seen other posts where this has been discussed, but I wanted to ask specific questions to see if any of you have direct knowlege of what to do. (I have a call in to the folks at Prosco.) The concrete (4000 psi) was poured a few months ago and was splattered on the new-construction brick...

After reading posts regarding Landa surface cleaners, I found a Water Jet on e-Bay...and won. I paid $580... Assuming it works, was this a good deal?

I have seen posts recommending using different sized tips to regulate pressure - rather than adjusting the unloader. As I understand it, lowering the pressure also lowers the flow. Can anyone tell me which tips to use? I have a 4gpm/4000 psi machine. I would be interested in having...

I know some of you don't need it, but Sam's has a heavy duty hose cart; holds 400'. Like the $130 - 140 ones, but with pneumatic tires - very well built and only $69. I've never seen one like it.

However you spell it, where can I get it. I'm looking for 25 or 50 lb. Since Home Depot has stopped selling RustAid, I guess I'll have to make my own. My new-and-improved website

Please visit my new website. Many changes were made, but I'm sure there are more that should be. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks. http://www.exteriorcleaning.com

I've heard and read about ball valves for a while now, but actually bought one today. What a timesaver! For any of you that don't already have/use one...get one! I figure that it will save me 10-15 min per job; more on some. Wow. My website
