    strange bay problem

    I have 1 bay in which none of the wand functions work. The fb works fine but the tri-foam is not getting any air in that bay but is in others. I can push in the contactor on the pump and it will start but I can't get it to start any other way. Usually it's the belt when the timer works but not...

    Rain Rain Go away!

    Yeah, it's rained 3 or 4 days a week here for weeks. If it's not raining, it's about to.

    D/H Vendmaster

    Yeah, Randy hooked me up with those guys and I am back in business. I did have to remove the button cover things from my keyboard because my 6 wouldn't work. That wouldn't be a big problem but you need the 6 to program the price. All of the buttons work now but my keyboard is kind of naked. I...

    Rowe changer repair suggestions

    That power supply that you replace with the full kit is a ridiculously expensive part. If you can find someone who needs one you can sell the old parts for nearly as much as the kit costs. That conversion is the single best thing that I have done to improve my ss business.

    Cleaning wheels

    I switched today to a different product today. If the sun will come out I will see how it works.

    Cleaning wheels

    I have about 15 secs of dwell built into my top wash to let the bug spray dwell but the wheel cleaning has been disappointing. Maybe I need a different chemical.

    Cleaning wheels

    I guess if we sprayed it at the entrance there would be some dwell for the residual chemical. Wouldn't that be comparable to the wheel cleaning from a touch free? I know it won't be as good as friction but that ship has already sailed.

    Cleaning wheels

    I was thinking more of a stationary high pressure that would get wheels and the rocker panels as they drive in. That would eliminate 1 whole pass of the gantry. The big question is would it clean the wheels any better than I'm getting now.

    Cleaning wheels

    Without the wheel scrubbers though the side arm brushes don't do much for the wheels. That's why I thought I might need some dwell time. If I did it as they are driving in couldn't I eliminate that whole first pass with the side blasters and speed up the wash process by about 15%? That would pay...

    Cleaning wheels

    So would you spray a high pressure chemical mixture? Doing it at the entrance would negate any dwell time for the chemical to work.

    Cleaning wheels

    I guess that's what the Motor City ones could be called. Who else makes them, do you know? Thanks

    Cleaning wheels

    1 million is my goal. Have you seen that Motor City wheel blaster? $7600 seems a little pricy but I guess that's no surprise.

    Cleaning wheels

    The Ryko rep told me that yesterday. He was going to look into some other options and get back to me. I'm certainly not buying a new machine.

    Cleaning wheels

    Well I removed my wheel scrubbers from my Softgloss. I don't regret that decision because they were driving me crazy. I'm using a stronger chemical now but do not think that I'm going to be satisfied with the results. Ryko cannot put their new wheel blasters on my machine, it's only on the new...

    Red lights on Ryko

    I ordered 4 of each the other deay for $52. Of course they are not in yet and I need 2 large ones. People seemed to be managing ok so far. Everybody in Kentucky is watching basketball anyway.

    Ethanol Fireplaces

    If you hit a roll of those caps with a hammer it makes a decent explosion. Don't you try it though Pat, you might hit yourself.

    Ryko SoftGloss triping with trailer hitch

    Mine will do this but only if it gets wrapped around the hitch, maybe 1 out of 500. We wash a lot of trucks. Don't know if there is a sensitivity adjustment or not.

    ... and then it quit again. I just manually moved all the motors and it worked for a couple of vends. We will see.
