    I’d like to see it. I can’t picture what you’re describing. Mine does a hell of a good job now, but it takes 8 minutes to do it…If I had two of them for busy days, I’d never upgrade.

    Green Hydraulic fluid

    Revolution. I don’t want the mineral based getting on cars. I’m thinking the water based won’t be so difficult to remove.

    SFR solenoid

    Hey guys. I had SFR siphoning from a bay. The diaphragm is shot. Can someone steer me toward a replacement? Ignore my hideous thumbnail. I smashed it about 3 weeks ago…forgot how bad that hurt

    Futura Fail

    Great! Can’t wait to hear how it goes. I suggest you take never seize and work it into all of the tie rod ends. I used to spray expensive lithium grease on mine every few days until I discovered the anti seize fix. Use the brush to work it down in and twist the tie rods back and forth. This will...

    The one I bought has two threaded holes to press it off.

    Pulley hub

    Hello. I’m trying to put together a pump stand and I need some help figuring out what part I need. The old paperwork listed a 3TB124 pulley, so I ordered it. Now I need the center piece that attaches it to the 3535 cat pump. I already ordered one that doesn’t fit. Thanks.

    Futura SSA hydraulic motors

    Top wobbler will need replacement. 9/16” wrench to remove 4 bolts, and a set screw. I haven’t dealt with the drive motors yet. Cold thick oil will wipe out the wobbler motors in a hurry.

    Name to a tap

    I do. The one in that particular bay is not working. The one in the vending area captured the person inside kicking the door. Others got the truck, but no plate.

    Name to a tap

    My vending area glass door was shattered early Sunday morning. Emv tap was used at that time. Is there a way to find out the name? I messaged cryptopay and was told that they can’t see names for taps. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    What holds the pay station?

    I like this. I don’t know how they even fasten down or how you access the fasteners. I suppose the pay station needs to slide out to reach down and unbolt the base. I just don’t want the fab shop to ask me how to do it and I say “duuuh uuuuh idk”. Which is already a huge part of my vocabulary.

    What holds the pay station?

    Ok. This one has the flange. I was hoping I could buy an enclosure for it. Thanks

    What holds the pay station?

    Hi. I’m trying to install an automatic myself. Picked up a used gold line auto cashier. I don’t want to lay a block enclosure so I’ve been trying to find a stainless one. I don’t know what they’re called or where to find a new or preferably used one. I greatly appreciate any help with this...

    Wax question

    I do that too at one of my washes. I’ll say this to reply to you both. At the wash I got In June, they had the tfw going on right on top of the high ph Presoak. Nope, bad idea unless low ph tfw. I tried to do the same thing at the other wash I bought mid 2021 (I am fairly new to this business)...

    Wax question

    Thanks. I had an older guy tell me that the wax just kills the soap.

    Wax question

    Hello. On my Rainmaker I think I’m getting wax spots. The water on the hood and windshield is either thick and filmy, or it beads up and waxy spots are left when the wax is on. I can’t seem to find an in between. The sides seem fine. Could this be that the top nozzles are too far away? What’s...

    Maximum width

    Hey I was thinking about painting some yellow lines for people to gauge their vehicle’s width. I don’t know how wide mine are. So a sign would be useless unless you have a tape measure handy. What have you all done to prevent wider ones from scratching their wheels ?
