If your fuel supply has no cut off valve you may have to much fuel in the carb... Also make sure you have no pressure in your hose while cranking hold the trigger down...... -
Cold water will work but Hot will do it better

Painted Deck Help
Lightning Gene replied to Lightning Gene's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Thanks for everyones suggestions. Stripping is out for me after hearing all the replies.....Guess I will talk them into pressuring off as much of the paint that I can get off and repainting over the old....Maybe I can still turn a tough job into a easier one and make money on it.... -

Envirospec Chemical ?
Lightning Gene replied to rj242's question in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Just got thru ordering the power stroke power pack and hope it will work as a stripper too for decks.Also I am trying the emulsifier plus,Premeir ,and rust a way in small packages to see how good your products work before ordering larger quanities.You web site does not give dilution rates for each but I assume it will come with the products...Thx GENE -
Water Tank
Lightning Gene replied to We Wash Concrete's topic in Tools, Equipment & Basic Maintenance
Guess I forgot to mention my tote is mounted in front of my skid unit and behind my large tool box. Lets see 50 gallons @ 8lbs per gallon plus the weight of the unit it should not move much....If you had an open trailer with nothing else to hold it in I can see the need to strap it down especially if it stayed empty.....
