Downstreaming question

[KGILL]

I run out of solution in my 5 gallon bucket while downstreaming and continue to run my pw without increasing the psi and stopping the machine from drawing from the downstream injector, will damage be done?

 

[KGILL]

I meant "If I run out..."

 

[dieseldad97]

Nope!

 

[Christopher]

NO, you will be just sucking air into the line instead of chemicals.

You may create a wormhole to the 4th dimension, so make sure your wearing clean briefs. What is your objective to downstreaming air?

 

[KGILL]

My objective is not to downstream air. My concern was if I ran out of solution in my 5 gallon bucket and failed to notice would damage be caused. Apparently no, so thanks everyone.

4th dimension? Sounds interesting.

4th dimension? Sounds interesting.

It is. But not anywhere near as bad as 5th dimension.

You should start getting a bit more foamy right before your completely empty. Your wand should start feeling 3.7 ounces lighter. All suttle signs but you pick right up on it at exactly your 10,000th wash.

you will loose a little bit hardly noticable flow ,

I havent washed quite 11,000.....but I CAN eat things that would make a billy goat puke.

 

[Chazz]

Good question. I often wondered this myself

I'm not even going to ask lol

Theres really no problem drawing air through your down streamer, we do it all the time. You can put a 1/4 valve on your chem line to stop flow, but we just pull the line out of the tank and rinse.

It's either or....... really.

... or you could just turn the knob, if you had an adjustable injector?

 

[Ron Musgraves]

None, no issue at all!

Thanks everyone. I do have an adjustable wand, but I still had to ask the question. Without the experience of being able to tell like Ed Thompson said, I went to the experts on the forum.

I appreciate the responses.

Now....what happens if I have two wands on site and cross streams?
