I think that's a good idea. I may buy a couple ends and repair the ARO pump that I have. $30 is better than $490 for a new one. - Bill, did you rebuild your pump with the new end cap? How is it working now? :) ** As an update, I have had the G57 double pump in for about two weeks now and...

Bill, Thanks for the feedback. By going out I meant, the white end cap is starting to leak under the red ARO logo. Our last AR0 Pump lasted 9 months before it started to leak the same way (which was the original ARO pump when the machine was new June '08). Basically the end cap is starting to...

I have a Mark VII GTO-300 with the off board Pre-Soak Pump (which runs constantly to keep the Presoak heated). The ARO pump (PD05P-ARS-PAA-B) has been replaced once already and the latest one (less than 6 months of use) is going out again. http://www.aropumpsonline.com/larger/12NonMetallic.html...

Yes, you can choose from the canned list of default wash names. However if you name your washes differently than the names in pre-recorded list then you get a "________" for the wash name. Only one of my three washes has a name that's in the list of recorded names, so I get the "_______" on my...

Just curious what do the spots look like? (Maybe that's a dumb newbie question, sorry). The reason I ask is because I had this same problem two weeks ago. I had "spots" on one side of the car. After much investigation and getting wet watching ever detail of many cars being washed we found...

I guess I'll have to get a few of those items and experiment a bit with them. Thanks :D

I am having a similar problem on my Mark VII. In test mode it foams great. During an actual wash it is runny on the front of the car then foamy towards the back (same thing for the next car). It doesn't stay consistantly foamy. I will try to clean them next to see if that helps. Also, does...

That seems like a pretty slick solution. I don't think I have that option. I currently have EPiC / Chase Paymentech. I am not sure if any other Hamilton users have to use these guys but I am not that impressed so far.

We currently accept credit cards at our Automatic. We have a Hamilton Goldline ACW. We also have tokenotes for our top end wash. I have created pre-paid tokenote packages that can be purchased at a discounted price. I can only accept cash or check currently for those books of tokenotes. I...

MEP, Do you happen to have a picture of your set up. It sounds pretty nice. I am assuming it's all individual components that you've pieced together into a nice little system. Shane

That's funny right there, I don't care who you are. Well I put the 1/4" hose in the bay. I will try it out for the next few weeks to see if I like it vs. the 3/8" hose. I used the previous swivel up at the boom that was from the old hose. I will probably buy new swivels for both ends next.

I guess I better order some of those swivels then. Is this the Kleen Rite 3/8" Swivel that you guys are talking about?

Thanks again for all of the input. I see (like always) there is no right answer. I think I like the 1/4" hose with 3/8" swivels on both ends. I realized this about 30 minutes after I picked up the hose with only one swivel :(. Oh well at least I know what to get next time. I now have one...

I must be looking in the wrong place on their website. I couldn't find any. Maybe I'll just call them next time. :o

Good information. Currently I believe the swivel is at the top of the hoses. Do you guys buy your hoses at a local store or is a there a good place on-line? I did not find any pre-made hoses at Kleen-Rite. There is a Parker store near me that I will use tomorrow to get the hoses, but an...
