    310 manifold washout

    I have had a bunch done at Kleen-Rite all with great success. I sent one to Vilco way back since they were a bit cheaper and it would not stop pulsation after re-install. So I have stuck with KR. Just under $200 last time I sent one in. I think I am pretty much all re-sleeved now. I have only...

    Oasis XP the good, the bad, and the ugly

    I have never seen the undercarraige like that. Is there an advantage to that or some other reason ?

    How do you handle this situation?

    More bs from idiots trying to blame a car wash for prior damage to their vehicle. Anymore, I just tell them flat out the car wash unit did not do that--end of story. Which part of "touchfree" did this person not understand? Once anyone threatens legal action, I stop talking altogether-not...

    If You Weren't in the Car Wash Business...

    At this point, a retired State Trooper (if I made it this far). When I was going to college for criminal justice, a Delaware Trooper could retire after 20 years of service. So, if I had made it, I would have been retired for about 15 years now pulling in a nice $75k pension or so. Plus getting...

    Anyone have a remote shut off

    I use this product from control by web for a 4 bay s/s location. I have GinSan timers, so I am just pulse closing across the #2 and #3 terminals, which shorts the timer out and shuts bay off. I use this for a different reason--I have a 30 minute for one price set up with loops in the floors...

    My new kip manifolds/solenoids are leaking

    Do you have winter time foam brush automatic changeover with purge? If yes, then it could be a check valve on that part of the system. There is a check valve on each bay to keep winter fb from pushing back into the block when it is purging. These can be a bitch to figure out which one; I usually...

    Older WeepMizer acting up

    Older one should be gray wire. The newer style is yellow wire. They are not interchangeable.

    Trash cans are gone

    Following up on this old thread--- those of you that pulled cans off the lot, are you still happy with that decision? Since covid, everyone is eating in their car. I have a location in a shopping center that is two lots down from a Chick-Fil-A. Since I am obsessed with watching car wash video...

    Feel like I'm held hostage by Google Reviews

    Yea...these services are a waste of your time. They just encourage keyboard cowboys. If someone does not have enough balls to say it to your face, then they should not be typing it. This is one reason I do not have facebook, snapchat, twitter or any other of those nutty platforms that have...

    Help with Ginsan boards frying

    I dumped those boards and went back to rotary switches on the location that had them. No more board issues. Electronics and moisture really do not get along, regardless of how well they are coated. (IMO)

    You should have printed your selections on the whole decal. Then you do not have to deal with those stupid a$$ little circles.

    New PPP

    It has been a crazy year. Five locations up double digits--- even two locations that were closed for 45 days in the beginning of the pandemic. Just crazy.

    Reducing demand charges

    I increased starts between my dryers (some are 10 hp, some are 15hp) to 3.5 seconds. On all my equipment they were starting with 2 seconds between each one. With a meter, I found that the first motor was not back down to regular "running" amps when the second started, and so on. This really...

    Credit card processing

    Thanks Roz for pointing out that analytics fee!! I never even look at my statements; I suppose I should. I just sent them an email to cancel that bs on all three of my accounts. I agree with you about the full page of fees. What a load of crap it is! My all in average with TSYS is 5%-5.2%...
