Title: Pressure Washer Problems
Post by mondeoman on Dec 8^th, 2009, 5:18pm

Hi,

I've a got Bosch 150 Pro-X pressure washer which I use to wash my lovely Ford Scorpio's and the detergent is not being sucked from the two containers.

I was wondering if anybody else has had a problem like this and if their is any easy solution? I have tried pouring warm down the pipe's which has had no effect and blowing air.

Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Mondeoman

Yes, a bucket and sponge if you want your paint to stay on the car :o

Dont like pressure washers, dont see the point in them. Cant see the sence in blasting off the wax you have already applied to the car either by previous waxing or the additive in your wash & wax. As for it not sucking the detergent... Has it got an internal filter ? Sounds like something may be blocked :-/
