  2. hello, for those familiar with a delco rk43 i am having a problem. i don't have any pressure. i only get it when i pinch the hose coming from the pump. possibly the bypass hose. when i do this the pressure builds up to what appears to be normal operating pressure. when i let it go ii loose it again. can anyone help me pleeeeeeaaassseeee ???? shawn nihem nec&m lansford, pa 18232 570-645-6027
  3. It Was The Electrodes Out Of Adjustment !!! Thank's To All Who Took The Time To Try To Help Me. I Appreciate It Very Much !!!!! Shawn Nihem Lansford, Pa Nec&m I Used A 3/16 Allen Wrench To Measure Them And It Works Great!!!!
  4. hello , the original coil pack didn't have an eye on it. i bought a replacement approx one year ago(it has an elect. eye). i never hooled it up. i just cut and taped the wires. i am however just getting a raw fuel spray when pulling the trigger after the initial ignition has stopped. shawn nihem lansford, pa nec&m
  5. Hello, I Am Having A Problem With My Burner Unit. It Is A Becket Unit On A Rk-43. I Recently Did Some Work On It Tune Up Etc. And The Burner Only Fires Up Once During Start Up (approx. 20-30 Secs.) And Then Stops. I Have A Constant Fuel Spray Coming From It But No Ignition. It Is A 12 Volt System And Batteries Are Charged. I Was Thinking Electrodes Out Of Adjustment. I Checked Them 3 Times. Still No Luck. Any Help Would Be Appreciated. Thanks Shawn Nihem Lansford, Pa Nec&m

  7. 12 Volt Pumps

    I AM NOT SURE WHAT YOU MEAN??? SHAWN NEC&M LANSFORD, PA
  8. I Am Using Three (12 Volt) Pumps To Supply My Pressure Washers. (tw0- 5gpm) & (one-8gpm). I Am Using A Large Marine Battery And A Battery Charger Running From My Generator To Charge The Battery When I Am Using The Pumps.( Battery Is Fully Charged Before Working Each Day) ( Tried New Battery As Well) After Using The Pumps For Severals Hours I Am Losing Power On The Battery And The Pumps Are Not Supplying Enough Water To Supply The Pressure Washers. Question: Is There Anything That Would Constantly Run My Pumps At "full Power"???? Shawn Nec&m Lansford, Pa
  9. Run Acid Through Pump???

    I NEVER HAD ANY LUCK GETTING THE DOWNSTREAM DEVICE TO WORK PROPERLY. THE SOAP I AM USING HAS SODIUM HYDROXIDE IN IT. IT CLEANS GREAT BUT DIS-COLORS THE ALUMINUM TRIM. CAN I COMBINE BOTH??? SHAWN NEC&M LANSFORD, PA
  10. I Don't Know About The Rest Of You P.w.'er's But I Am Getting Tired Of Using My X-jet And Other Gadgets!!! I Am Thinking About Running Acid Through My Pump I Have A General Pump Ts-2021(for Washing / Applying Soap). When I Clean Trailers With Aluminum Rails (top & Bottom) I Have To Stay Twice As Long To Apply Brightener When Finished Cleaning Them. (approx. 75 Trailers Per Day)(weekends) I Apply It With The X-jet And I Have Another Person Rinsing. If Anyone Has Done This How Long Will My Pump Last???

  11. Nozzle change causing pulse (same size nozzles)

    sometimes my machine rk-43 acts up when i use a 0 drgree tip in it???? not the answer your looking for but i am in the same boat i guess??? it cuts "on & off" !!! shawn nihen northeast cleaning & maintenance lansford, pa 18232
  12. I Have Been Cleaning The Interiors Of Barns Lately And I Am Using Sodium Hypo 15% Sloution And Applying It Straight Onto The Wood Surfaces To Remove Mold And Bird Droppings. It Works Great But I Am Looking For Something That Will Clean The Barns That Only Have Bird Droppings. I Am Tired Of The Hazzards Of The Sodium Hypo . Any Suggestions???

  13. Soap Recipe

    Does Anyone Make Their Own Soap For Washing Trucks & Trailers??? I Am Very Interested In Making My Own Soap. I Am Not Looking To Steal Any "trade Secrets" Just Maybe A Way To Make My Own Mix And Save A Few Dollars If Possible . Or Just Having The Satisfaction Of Using A Product That I Made!!! Feel Free To Respond Or Contact Me. Thanks Shawn Nihen Northeast Cleaning & Maintenance 25 East Bertsch St. Lansford, Pa 18232 570-645-6027
  14. Venting trailer?

    I Have An Rk-43 From Delco And Mounted A Fan To The Opposite Side Of The Burner Exhaust Side. I Have A Step Van And The Machine Is Mounted Between The Wheel Wells. No Problems !!! I Also Use A Small Generator To Power The Fan & Accessories. Shawn Nihen Northeast Cleaning & Maintenance 25 East Bertsch St. Lansford, Pa 18232
  15. I Am Going To Be Purchasing A Hot Box For The Up Coming Winter Months. (8gpm @4000psi) I Have Capabilities To Operate The 12 Volt Hot Box. I Run A Generator To Power A Battery Charger For My Other 12 Volt Equipment. It Is Only 1850watts . Don't Think It Will Work The Electric Hot Box. I Don't Have Room For A Bigger Generator In My Step Van. Is There Much Difference 12volt Hot Box Vs Electric??? (besides Price) Will I Be Sorry With The 12 Volt??? I Currently Run A Rk-43 From Delco Which Has A 12 Volt Burner No Problems Yet??? Will The Hot Box Be Different??? Thanks Shawn Nihen Northeast Cleaning & Maintenance 25 East Bertsch St. Lansford, Pa 18232
