Russell Cissell 65 Report post Posted February 20, 2006 Lance What is your end goal? What are you trying to accomplish? I've seen the opposite of what you describe done many times. For instance on a machine with a 13 HP Honda, If you take a downstream injector and fit it with a male QC on the inlet and a female QC on the outlet side you can drop in a 0 degree tip with a #20 orifice. Now if you place that rig at the end of your lance or directly into your gun it will perform like an X-Jet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aquabob 14 Report post Posted February 20, 2006 you wont get that much draw with 100ft or more of hose on the out side of an x-jet. the back pressure will reduce the amount of draw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was more or less thinking out loud when I posted, but after thinking about it, realized that because of the way the x-jet works, there would be know way it could be used in that way.
