I stock up on my bay chemicals and some of them seperate while in storage. What is the best way to remix them? I tried a paint mixer, but it is too large to fit through the openings. Other than a homemade mixer that I can attach to a drill, is there anything else out there?

Had this happen to me today. A guy comes around dragging a burning dumpster. Anyone have that happen? I was using my only hose to unclog a drain so I eneded up turning both bays on and flooding it with water till my employee unstuck my hose. We doused it with water for 15 minnutes till the...

Sorry for kinda being a newbie. I've been checking out some used machines on consignment. Can you get say a Washworld distributor to remove a washworld machine in a different state and install a machine in your bay? Do you first have a rep come out and say yes, this will fit or do your research...

Doe anyone have documentation for the Air Logic weep system? What does it do differently than the Dixmor system? KR says they don't have anything on it and I can't find info on their web site.

Got a Paraplate regulator that was dripping that I replaced with a rebuilt BR52 with new seals from KR. It's leaking more now than the regulator I replaced. The pump had a larger regulator and I had a spare I found that said leaks but usable and rebuilt that one. Not sure where I went wrong...

I'm making my own underbody spray. Does anyone know of an affordable 3 way high pressure valve that I can use to divert pump output between the wand and the new underbody wand? Needs to be 3/8" and be able to handle 1200 psi normally.

Do you guys give out stuff for Halloween? If so, what do you give out? The standard candy? Air fresheners? I'm next to a pizza place and they give out slices of pizza, just trying to think of something other than candy to give out.

Just installed the cryptopay upgrade to my ACW4. Have an updated controller with the latest software thanks to Randy. Have the same problem I have seen here before. It verifies and charges the card but does not start the wash. Keeps scrolling card accepted and that's it over and over. Rechecked...

Tried upgrading myACW4 today to cryptopay. Found I had version 1.4 with the display soldered in. Anyone know where I can get a new board to upgrade mine instead of spending wads of money on a new cashier?

Can anyone tell me the size of the o-rings for the valve seats or where I can purchase them? None of my kits have that thin of an o-ring. Hate to spend all that money for the whole valve kit just because of o-rings. Also where can I get the back-up rings?

My Ac/4 bill acceptor freezes up if the customer puts quarters in first. Keeps saying X amount dollars due, but will not even try to accept a bill. I have to give customer quarters to finish transaction.

I inspected my new (old) wash and saw injectors for the soap and wax on the inlet side of the Cat 310 pumps. They are drawn through lines running off the mixing tanks. People have complained of no soap/wax. Shouldn't these lines be pressurized above intake water pressure to inject product? How...

So I'm planning on installing cryptopay. Need to change my timers from time master to led 6 or 7. Do both timers allow initial start charge and THEN count up? Do they start from .25 and count up from there to the max charge? I'm confused with the pulses. I understand the pulses from the coin...

I can't find the person that sent me the SS car wash magazine. I love it!!! Sorry I didn't contact you before, but I finally closed on my first and you Mag is very informative. I hope to get more issues. How often is it published? I refuse to throw out the old issues as they have very...

I'm trying to come up with a plan to restore the wash I bought. The seperate lines used to all run up to the attic and had a panel to feed everything up to a manifold above each bay. The lines were not run to the center of the bays and my roof is sloped. The trough that holds the lines is on the...

How are your washes set up? What chemicals do you use? Do you use two different pre soak chemicals? Do you have Spot free rinse? Anyone add dryers and how did you wire them in?

I got a 20+ year old Magic Wand that has 1 phase motors for the presoak, wax, etc. I cannot find any schematics. Has any tried changing their 1 phase motors to 3 phase as they need replacing? How did you do it and did it save you on power? I'm not saying doing all of them at once, but switching...
