I would like to take a new Nissan van down to Les and put in one of those bad babys. It would be ten years before you had to do any repairs. Now that's a thing of beauty.

That Nissan is too short. Not enough cargo room. But I think they make a longer one.

Not yet. but I am sure one is coming. I like the Nissans. A friend has one and it seems to have the same length as My chevy van but with the straight sides and higher roof it has a ton more usable space then my van.

Nice machine but how loud is it with a muffler. I'm like Daniel like the bigger motors and blowers.

I believe it's the same engine but a different blower but I would also be concerned with the noise factor using the muffler. What about it Les?

The vac relief looks like a foot valve used on deep well pumps... I imagine it can be done, as they are spring loaded and adjustable.

Come to think if it... if they can hold 30-40 gallons on water at the bottom of a well (gravity) yet open for water demand.....

Hm... neat idea.

Congratulations, I'm sure you'll be very happy with that machine for many years. I'd like to see a picture of it installed. Email me one and I'll post it here if you wish. What speed do you typically operate at for single wanding?

is that the new water tank from Hydroforce?

I can see the advantage of the engine layout. Install some remote oil drain hoses and a remote oil filter, that'll make oil changes a breeze and not as messy.

I really can appreciate the simplicity and wide open design ...i have to ask though, isn't that engine 10" from your right ear hotter than hell in the summer??

Larry, I thought the same thing when I got mine. But you honesty can feel no heat after a job. The fan from the motor blows everything towards the rear of the van out the doors.

Nice machine for sure, BUT

If you are going to build a real money making machine Les, it needs more power (suction) to effectively run two tools and dual pressure regulators or possibly two pumps (not as important as the suction). High pressure would be nice too.

Why can't you use a larger motor like the Nissan and build a machine with larger blower plumbed right?

I would love to demo one.
A few too many paint chips maybe?

I just saw that relief valve in the Sun-Belt catalog - part number SB1508P. Looks exactly like the pic anyway.


Sunbelt TM's are private labeled Judsons .
Or used to be, I don't know if they still offer a TM with their name on it
