  1. Can't remove belt wheel

    When in doubt get a bigger hammer.
  2. When your sick

    Roll-On!!!!!! and Get 'er done!!
  3. Should we be supporting new startups?

    I dont surf the net much and post less. But from what I've read the boards do baby folks when startring up, so what. Concentrate on YOUR business and you will do fine.
  4. The X-Jet debate

    A downstreamer on the end is not going to change your ratios so basically you are still downstreaming. I had a guy work for me for a bit who used to make his own xjets when he had a business. Basically he took a 3/4 brass T and plumbed it up and reduced it down to 1/4 ends. He fitted the backside with a 0degree nozzle and the front with a hose barb and the bottom with a 1/4 chem line. That setup created his venturi and worked for him. I have never done it but it sounds really feasible. I am not good at describing things by typing but if you get the picture it seems feasible.
  5. The two welded together weigh alot less than the rollovers and they dont get gummed up and stick either.
  6. We upstream soap and down stream acid as well. I welded two 1/4" plugs together and have a HP nozzle on on one side and soap nozzle on the other, works great. I also run my hose to a ball valve then have a 9degree elbow with my wand attached so that when I need to change my tips I just close the ball valve yet while I am washing I am not holding a trigger open all day. I also run some other good fleet wands PM me if you want some ideas.
  7. One tip. Since your just starting out throw away the 0 degree nozzle to prevent any damage.
  8. Good motor, good pump and Pauls a great guy. I am sure the price is good. That setup would be perfect for resi work.
  9. A worthy thing to fight...Barack's Stealthy Socialism?

    Both parties are pushing for socialism. As long as we have a two party system the fed govt will get bigger and bigger and push for socialism. If you really want to change things vote out side of the dem-rep parties.
  10. Did McCain Make A Big Mistake ?

    The elections are a waste anymore. Its a big game to swing and steal votes from the other party. Both parties are the same based on big goverment and control. Latley using fear tactics for control. I would love to have an open election not just the two parties that are a joke.. Then we might be able to vote for someone who cares about our country and this countries future without worrying about there own and there parties financial gain. Thats all this is any more is who can I make MY friend so that when I get released from being president I will be taken care of. I could care less who runs for pres or VP as long as they care about us, there country and what we the people want not what some big polictical party wants them to do. As for the folks running I dont want either of them in office. Just my 2 cents.
  11. Loud horn

    My friend has two sets of train horns on his tricked out BMW when you stand next to his car the sound waves make you shake. It is so freakin loud!!! I also agree its not to funny because many people could take it wrong and flip out on you.
  12. Trailer Hitch 2 Shin Pain *Graphic*

    OOUUCHHHH! That doesnt look fun at all.
  13. EacoChem Products

    We use a lot of Glory and Truck wash supreme. Awesome soaps just plain awesome.
  14. Should I Buy This ?

    Right on. I am sure you'll like it. Diesels rule!!!!
  15. The red is from water and soap getting under the siding and reacting to the ink on the weather wrap or something else under the siding. In our experence the fading is from to much bleach on the paint. Next time tune it down a bit. Have you tried rinsing it really, really well. When its wet can you brush off the marks. Try brushing it if you can, I know its a pain in the arse but better than a repaint unless you want insurance to take care it. What did the H/O say about just curious.
