It would......however each time I've mentioned it.....people act like I got three eyes.....
The first tm I operated was a steam genie slide in. That was the late 70's. I switched companies and we had some very well used cleanco units. There was a lot of smallercompanies then putting out pto machines. Jem, pumps and power, cleanco,aquatech. I may be wrong but I think cleanco was first. I remember them advertising doing a hose run to the top of the cn tower. I don't know how well that worked

Joe Rorke was instrumental in the development of the modern Cleanco. It's a direct copy of the Aquatech. Joe Rorke and Jim Miller were the go to guys locally in the development of pto truck mounts in the seventies and eighties. Jim has passed away, last I heard of Joe, he was living in Okotoks Alberta.

Still is. I have talked to him in the last year or so. He was still doing installations then.

The engine deacceleration what you hear most likely is a gummed up blower that needs a rinse out OR slick blower belts...hopefully 'B' belts.
