I'm going to try flex paste tomorrow. Because the tire cleaner is down I drained that tank and could see the .75" spot at the bottom of the dividing wall where liquid is getting through. I'll probably just do wax/soap right now, put some solution in 5 gallon jugs and let the sealant cure at...
The purple stuff left a crazy crust in the tank, a good 1mm thick on the walls, discharge tube, will have to get a pic of the float tomorrow. Do all tire cleaner type products do that?
Quite a rabbit hole I'm down on the revamp of my wash. Now that the chemicals are updated and not the same soap for 3 functions I can see that there are leaks in the walls separating the tanks. Was thinking about flex paste but worried about chemical resistance. Getting it welded is way too big...
I have a bay just start to drop pressure on presoak only. Not bad enough to vibrate much but noticeable drop and only presoak, all other hp functions on the dial work fine. Can flip back and forth between soap and presoak and it's about as instant as the switch action.
I also learned where I should have looked when I had to change a switch and needed the color legend. Was able to get it together enough not to be leaking so long as noone fired up the motor. Knowing the color wire I disabled the function at the bay.
Ok, spent time working on this and ran out of parts. I started by trying the function confirming its not under pressure, straight away pushing 90psi... ok cut off air for now and remove plungers 1 at a time running each bay; now I have flow to all yay right? Not so fast, now 4/6 bays are flowing...
I guess I'll be checking plungers tomorrow. Doesn't seem like the pump would get hot and push the pressure gauge so high if it were not doing its job. The 2 solenoid blocks are between pump and gauge so it going up and down suggests free path there... Just so odd for all to get blocked overnight.
