    Anyone in the Atlanta area able to get 12.5% for less than $1.50/gal or know of a place that will give bulk rates? Might save us all some $$ if we go in on a large order. Just a thought.

    General Pump gets so hot it burned off the data label...

    Seems I'm a magnet for crappy used gear. I've got this General TS1511 pump hooked up to the standard GX390 Honda and when I first got the pump I could easily read the data sticker that had all the model, manufacturer, and other type info. That same tag now is completely black like it had...

    Can a pump rated at 2200 PSI put out 3500?

    I've got an Interpump model WS151 attached to a 13hp honda motor and I saw a pressure gauge attached to the high pressure side when the pump was running. The gauge hung around 3250 PSI but jumped to 3500 or so with the trigger off and in bypass mode. I found a link (copied below) for this...

    Here's what I've got, what else is needed?

My immediate problem is cash flow - specifically, there isn't any. And the won't be until I get this old rig up and running which is where you guys...

    Do I need to take my pump apart?

    Ok ya'll, I got my hands on a machine that's been sitting for a long time - like 3 years easy. The engine starts no problem and the pump has oil in it from what I can tell from the dip stick. When I look inside the in/out ports on the pump I see some rust inside the threads but it doesn't look...

    Do I use cash or credit to start up?

    Greetings wand slingers! I'm putting together a new business (do I need to mention a pressure washing one?) and am looking for some input on whether to start up on personal cash or just charge everything to a credit card. I'm a Dave Ramsey fan (he's a big time financial counselor/radio talk...
