Anyone know where I can get generic downstream o-rings? They always go before the stainless spring - if I could buy a bag of them I would save some money versus a 'rebuild' kit. I think they are .208 x .070...

Putting a replacement engine on my Largo skid (Briggs died at 3700 hours) - figured I would document it here, and more to the point, ask for advice on how to get it all done. Perhaps the thread will help others in the future. Will be putting a different oil filter adapter on this one to allow a...

Just had a problem with a relatively new hot box fuel tank leaking, while waiting on a replacement I am running with a small 6 gallon marine tank on the floor of the flatbed truck. My guys are telling me that the burner is cutting off since I changed the tank out. I have noticed both of our hot...

We've got a green metal roof to clean at one of our centers... the cleaning part is not a problem - done plenty of that! However, the customer is asking if there is a waxing or restorative additive that can be added following cleaning to help restore a bit of gloss. Do you guys know of any...

I have been using this type of ball valve for a few years now - but I am noticing that they are needing to be scrapped after 2 or 3 months of use (mainly shopping centers, gas stations and restaurant hot water type cleaning). http://shop.powerwashstore.com/searchquick-submit.sc?keywords=6292b...

Bought the drum kit Crete Kleen concrete cleaning chemical from Paul & Bill at powerwashstore a few days ago. I mixed up a batch for my guys who were out cleaning a few gas stations - they absolutely loved it in comparison to our previous Sodium Hydroxide/surfactant blend. I didn't tell them...
