After a search, I realize I am not the first to have this problem, but I couldn't find where someone posted the solution...
OK...Wayne burner, 3000 psi, 8 gpm HydroTek. Gray smoke, then it sounds/looks like my rig has an afterburner! (Kind of cool, but yet not.) Temp is set to 125 to 150, running either the wand or surface cleaner at 3000 psi. Sometimes, it will cycle on/off normally, but usually I have to keep an eye for the gray smoke. If I release the trigger, smoke stops. I can immediately restart and operation is normal, with burner lighting-off properly - until the next cycle.
When downstreaming, this never happens. Everything that can be cleaned/adjusted has been. Pressure, as I recall, is 150 psi. Flow-type unloader was recently replaced.
Any thoughts?
