I'll have Jackson look into it.

I'm not talking about siphoning. I'm speculating that it could be letting city water trickle through. With a trickle, it won't bring any chemical with it, which would water down the tank.

He was waiting to make sure it was fixed.

Maybe a hydrominder letting water slowly leak through, watering down the mixture in the tank. It would have less effect on busier days, which could explain why it's sporadic.

I used a hose similar to that years ago. I didn’t like it. Abrasion resistance wasn’t very good. It was hard to put the fitting on without twisting the hose. When it failed from age and general wear and tear, it was futile to splice it, because it would just fail in another spot quickly afterward.

If it's the hose in the bay, I wouldn't use any 3/8" hose. It has over twice the volume of a 1/4", which is going to greatly increase changeover times.

MEP001 last posted a year ago today. He left a huge hole in this forum for sure. I was always amazed at the ideas and tricks he always came up with, leaving me wondering, why I didn't think of that. I couldn't get over how knowledgeable he was about so many things. Even though I'm out of the...

Jim Gosnell just replied and asked me to post to the forum. He says they are okay, but all power is knocked out. Spotty cell service, but they are setting up mobile cell sites so they can text. They got 24" of rain and everything is flooded. It may be a week or more before power is restored and...

My step-daughter's father lives just east of Asheville. He described their area as "apocalyptic".

As far as parts are concerned, I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't one for the 500. The 700 has some extra parts that the 500 doesn't, but the only different parts I can think of would be the PLC and the wheel speed inverter.

I texted Jim Friday, but never heard back. I don't think too much into that, since that was usually his MO. APW's wife posted on FaceBook that they had a lot of tree damage, power lines down, but they were safe, and structures pretty much unscathed.

I remember them having a machine that was made by Automatic Products. Can you post a picture of your machine?

I have no idea, I didn't ban him.

I had four washes: The one by Subway The one across from the Dinner Train The one next to the gas company The one by Pizza Hut

I've dealt with this several times. Even on the exact machine you have. I just drilled right into the key slot and within a few seconds the bit caught and the lock opened. I think I used a 5/16 or maybe 3/8 bit. It took me longer to type this post.

3/8 has no business being a bay hose.

If it's 800-1000 cars in a month, those are IBA numbers. I would put in a Washworld Profile.

I have a nest in the peak of my pole barn, about the size of a grapefruit, and about 18' off the ground. I've looked at different products on Amazon, and it's not uncommon to see in the reviews that they don't shoot as far as advertised. I definitely don't want to fire this stuff from a ladder...

Short answer, NO. I've seen it done near me several times. All with towns of around 1000. They failed miserably. I now live in a town of about 1000. A year or so ago, someone bought the only wash here, 2 SS, 1 IBA. They totally remodeled the building, repaved the lot, and installed a brand new...
