First, I think its really great that you came back and let us know what it was (or wasn't).

Thank you Justin.

Second, we could do a very long thread here about things all of us have done very much like that.

Here's mine:

When I was 19 (1979) I drove 4 hours to Williamsport to show a truck mount...the second time I ever did it. I was nervous as it was, and when no water came out of the jets of the wand, I got upset. But I had been drilled for several days on everything to do when out like this, including minor repairs.

First, I checked the spray jets. They weren't clogged (back then I didn't yet know they'd rarely all clog at once, but I wasn't experienced enough back then to know.

Next, I disassambled and cleaned out the pressure regulator. No change.

Then, I took the high pressure pump apart to make sure nothing was clogged or not functioning right. No debris, no change.

(By now my prospect just wants to go home and for me to never come back...)

As I started to put everything away, my head drooping in despair, I noticed that two of the quick connects had pulled slightly apart.....

That's all it was.

Yeah, I know how you feel Justin.

All of us do.


That happened to my helper we were on opposite sides of the valley so I could look to see he had no water in his water box.

A 175 hit and disconnected a brass hook up on a water softener.

He drove 45 minutes to my truck mount specialist in Santa Clarita.

Which took 3 minutes to figure it out.
