high pressure differences

I am having a problem with water pressure being lower when on soap versus rinse. Have tried adjusting regulators, but still have lower pressure when not on rinse. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks
 
You could have a leak on the soap line allowing it to draw air in, or there could be a check valve on the water supply not opening fully and starving the pump.
 
Your problem could also be related to your weep problem. You might want to call someone in and give you some lessons on what does what and ow everything works. I know someone in Arlington Texas who might be able to help you.
 
Make sure the ball valve under the water storage tank is opened up enough.

I would also check and clean the medium pressure presoak solenoid.
 
If this is a gravity fed system on the soap and pressure fed on rinse to the pump? Look at the check valve between the pump and gravity feed tank on the hot side. The checkvalve may need replaced.
