    cap 5cp2120 or 310 cap shooting off head????

    they definitely are now that the caps were forced out, but how would the first one shoot out if the cap was tight and only 4 years old? seems very random and odd

    cap 5cp2120 or 310 cap shooting off head????

    i had water coming out of one of the top valve caps. found the valve on the floor but couldn’t find the cap. i put another cap on then started the pump right there at the pump stand and the cap shot up to the ceiling like a bullet. that has happened before on a different pump only because I had...

    Tri Foam in Self Serve

    i run 7 bays off of one flo-jet no problem. i fought it like crazy and even went with a larger yamada. only to find out in the end that the 1/4” poly didn’t provide enough volume. switching to 3/8” was the answer.

    Tri Foam in Self Serve

    make sure your running the chemical through 3/8” line as 1/4” doesn’t give the volume needed. 1/4” is fine for the air though

    Am I crazy ?

    i was at 10,12,15,18. switched recently to 12,15,18. next year will go 12,16,20. I’ve always had four packages, but I’ve never liked it. i didn’t like the middle of the road people having an opportunity to get the lower of the two middles and I also think four packages is just too much to read...

    Am I crazy ?

    i have 2 razor edges. my $18 top package with tri foam, hot wax, and ceramic is 3:45. my $12 basic package is 2:45. i would definitely cosider looking into the double barrel as i think the better impingement with the hp nozzles might greatly improve the eye brow issues

    ACW unexpected coin drop?

    yes, as long as you’re fine not giving change then unplugging the hopper should take care of your problem. It did mine anyways.
