BlueLine Thermalwave2 summer/fall project

[BIG WOOD]

I’m taking it to the forklift later this week to move it. Rubber mats underneath are getting pulled up.

The waste tank was behind it but I think I’m gonna move it to the left side of the machine for better mounting space and ease of access to the rear and right side of the machine.

The van needs a power steering fluid reservoir, a tuneup, and a new rear door

As for the tm, the water pump needs tlc, and the 185f thermal relief valve needs replaced. . Once I get it completed, we’ll see what other issues it might have

assuming there are no tacks............I'd probably hit it with a torch for a few seconds.........after Justin posted what they use during assembly

A little loctite goes a long way. Add a cheater pipe on the end of your wrench.

Let me have a try. I’m in the mood to break something.

 

[BIG WOOD]

Looks freaking goofy, but I made it work

 

[BIG WOOD]

Excuse the nakedness. I’ll leaving the covers off until I know it won’t leak

 

[BIG WOOD]

I’m waiting on an aluminum pipe to be made to hook the blower up to the waste tank

Looks like a lot of unnecessary work
You should be cleaning carpet

 

[Desk Jockey]

Looks pretty good. Should be a nice unit once you get her out there.

 

[Nomad74]

I like it. Good job Matt.
I’m cleaning a 7 level mansion right now on the river. Wish i had my helper today.

My main rig has been at Jondon getting 2k hr. service for the last 2 days. So I took off thur-sun to work on this and hopefully get it ready to clean this sunday.

As for your asshole comment...it's necessary. I paid a good price for the van and machine, and My schedule is full.

 

[hogjowl]

How rude!

Sorry for the delay. It came as a kit, and the guys at the factory did not know to leave the fittings off. I did send you this picture via DM so you knew how it would look when you received it.

Leave him alone, he's having fun. So far.

 

[BIG WOOD]

btw how much did you pay.? I might need one of those.

If it works just as good as the big box I pulled out, it's worth the $1300 I paid

is now a good time to ask just wtf is that thing?

 

[BIG WOOD]

Got it cranked and going through first testing today.

 

[BIG WOOD]

First crank since February

 

[BIG WOOD]

Fookin cell service is crap here. Taking forever to post videos

After lubing the pressure regulator and fixing several water and antifreeze leaks after first test

[BIG WOOD]

First testing with blower attached.

I got the heat around 185-200. The thing that puzzles me is when I pull the trigger, it holds heat pretty good. When I let off trigger, the heat drops fast. Any ideas on why it’s doing that?

And I think it needs a new thermostat because the anitifreeze is only about 135f at the coolant heat exchanger. Isn’t it supposed to be around 160-175?

Is it bypassing water when not triggered?

It might be, but I don’t quite know how it could yet
