    Clear coat sealer problem

    I think it means mineral seal oil.

    Looking for spigot valve for 5 gallon pail.

    Transferring the lid is not a good option. This is the flexible pull out spout on the round 5 gallon pail.

    Looking for spigot valve for 5 gallon pail.

    I want a valve to replace the screw on cap for the flexible spout on the 5 gallon buckets we are all very familiar with. All I can find on Amazon are ones that are permanently installed. Since it will be moved from bucket to bucket, I want something to easily transfer. I don't want to know how...

    Called it quits.

    Congrats Earl. I hope you stick around the forum like I have. It never gets out of your blood. I've been retired 5 years now and had a car wash dream last night.

    Self Serve Car Wash Inspection - SE Michigan

    I can't help with recommending someone, but resurrecting a wash can vary wildly, because of one factor...freezing. If it has frozen, you can expect huge expenses in getting it operational. If it hasn't frozen, it can be as simple as firing things up and see what works and what doesn't. I'm sure...

    CAT 31DS Pump issues

    My Mark VII pump stand from 1990 came with the 31DS pumps. I think it was just something they did for Mark VII.

    CAT 31DS Pump issues

    The 31DS is a 310 that was OE for a Mark VII pump stand. I think the only difference is that the head is not chromed.

    Sad, Sad day I.B. Washincars

    Well, after 8 days in the hospital and rehab I'm out and on the mend. I got off pretty light, with a little right side weakness and slurred speech. Improving daily, but typing is hard, so probably won't post much for while. Thanks for thinking about me.

    Texas dirt in Ohio!

    I remember this happening back in the '80s. We took in over $2300, topping our best week ever by a longshot. At the time, we were 50¢ for 5 minutes.

    Belt Drive Removal

    Screw the bolts you removed into the unused threaded holes in the disc. They will go all the way through and push the sheave off of the hub. The threads could be rusty, so you may want to run a tap through the holes to cleans the threads first.

    New

    Yep, figure 4-500K for two autos and support equipment. Then add in for the building, and the land if you don't already own that.
