I'm in northern California, in the SF Bay Area.

Hello, I have a ring o matic 750 I'm considering selling. I believe I sent you a private message about it but didn't hear back from you. Thanks, John

Hello, I have a Futura spot free system at one of my washes and the Procon deliver pump just died. Futura is no longer in business, and I cant find a model number on the pump, and there seem to be quite a few different models. It's a stainless bolt on style with 1/2 npt ports. I was hoping...

Hello, I have been having a lot of problems with my single phase Baldor L1408T motors failing. It seems like the quality is going down fast. I have been replacing motors that are 1 year old and there have been a few under a year. The symptom most of the time is when you start up a bay, the...

This may veer off the subject a bit, but while I don't think you would want to go that far backwards in your start up price, I do feel having round number for startup seems to make people spend dollars rather than quarters. Back in 2010 I did some upgrades and raised my start up price from $2...

Found the problem. The power harness for the #2 hopper somehow got crushed under the hopper causing a short. Thanks!

Hello, I have a 3 year old Standard rear load dual changer. When we arrived the other day, the out of service light was on. When looking at it from the back, the left side, labeled #2, had nothing lit up on the hopper or bill acceptor, and the right side, labeled #1 was on but flashing a...

Hello, I just had a muti tron acceptor in a shampoo vac die on me and I wanted to swap in a slugbuster. I though I had figured this out once before, but does anyone know how to connect the wires. I assume the black and yellow are standard, but the Multi tron has two red with green stripe...

Thanks for the replies. I had a hard time tracking this problem down so I wanted to give an update. Contrary to a couple of the replies, I actually do own a meter. The problem was intermittent and the timers blew the fuses over a period of several days. I assumed it was an issue with the...

Hello, I have a location with 5 bays withe Etowah Valley quick pay timers. It has been working fine for years with no major issues, but over the last week, I have had three timers go dark (the 24v is still on as the coin and bill acceptors are working, just the timer display is off). I...

Hello, I have a 4 bay SS with Monorail equipment that has the weird timer set up with the timer boards on the pump stand and just the display in the meter boxes. I want to switch to updated meter boxes with Dixmor timers. Has anyone done this, and or have any guidance on wiring the...

Hello, I have a Futura self serve pump stand, and it has the small plastic water tanks for each bay, each with their own float valve. I just had a float valve break, and I'm trying to find a replacement. I know Futura/Specialty Equipment went out of business, and I believe I had ordered one...

Wow, that sounds interesting! So you would just have tubes go from the fragrance reservoirs to the input of the solenoids then hook the tubes from the fragramatics gun to the output of solenoids? And that's it? Thanks for the great suggestion!

Hello, I bought a used IVS fragrance vac, 2007 model, and its been sitting around for a few years. I finally installed it, and the vacuum part works fine, but I cant get the fragrance to work. The system looks more complex than the coleman ones I'm used to. Everything turns on, the air, the...

Hello, I have several self serve locations, and worry sometimes about my wife, or myself walking into the bank and depositing large bags of cash (of course it's mostly singles, but from a distance it must look like a million bucks). Does anyone use a service where they pick up your deposits...

I'm in SF East Bay near Oakland. Thanks! John

Hello, I'm in California, and the drought has got me worried. So, I was thinking of adding water reclaim to my location which I own the land, and which also has the highest water/sewer costs (approx $1k per month). I found a few older posts, and it seems like there weren't many folks using...

Hello, I've never had this problem with my Rowe changer before. Has anyone had this happen, where all of a sudden it won't take $1 bills at all but still takes $5 and $10 bills? Any advise would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! John

Hello, Does anyone know how to issue a refund on TSYS? On Bluepay I remember it was easy, and when you were on the web reporting site, you could just click the transaction and hit the refund button. When looking at the transaction batches on TSYS, I don't see any way to do a refund. Both...

Hello, I'm in California, and starting to get paranoid over the drought, and wondering if water rationing or worse is on the way. Two of my locations that were built back in the 1960's had their own wells at some point long before I had them. One even has some plumbing left over. I'm...
