I have a ***** RK27 (Elite3005VGEVBD). At 244 hours I had to have the 12 Volt transformer,And the hi-limit switch (220 F) replaced. My service tech said the initial problem was a loose connection. he also replaced the fuel filter and put a 1.75 GPM 80 degree nozzle in. The nozzle replaced a larger nozzle and was replaced in an attempt to cut the water temp, as the water was hot enough to turn to steam. the water still turns to steam. At 375 Hours, the hi-limit switch was again replaced. Is it possible to install a variable thermostat in place of the fixed temp which allows water to turn to steam. AT present, the only way to regulate the water temp is to turn off the heater, then turn it on when the water gets cool. I know some PW have an adjustable t-stat. My former machine did, but vibration kept the dial rotating, and changed the temp setting.
