With up to 8 gpm and 4,000 psi, this finely tuned hot-water pressure washer has a General or Annovi Reverberi pump and exceptional 5-year manufacturers' warranty coverage, including an engine warranty and a 5-year prorated coil warranty. To best tackle all types of water-blasting applications in any location, a 12V DC diesel fired burner, 15-gallon poly diesel fuel tank, 40-amp charging system and battery box make this Water Cannon pressure washer wholly self contained. Dependable Beckett burners deliver a 118-degree Fahrenheit water temperature increase (210-degree F maximum), and a highly efficient schedule 80 coil with a molded combus- tion chamber offers access to hot water within seconds. A 3VX belt system with 4 belts, which are laser aligned and factory tested, delivers bal- anced power transfer for complete control. Engine and pump oil drains mean main- tenance is simple and hassle free. Built-in features, such as a safety pressure relief valve and a thermo-sensor that prevents overheat- ing in bypass mode, safeguard the pressure washer and its operator. A durable roll cage with a lifting hook makes it less difficult to move this washer and protect it from potential dam- age.

This ethanol/water mix- ture is corrosive. As this mixture moves from a fuel tank into an engine, it causes many problems, including — but not limited to — varnish, gum, severe corrosion, dried and brittle rubber and plastic parts, and acceler- ated fuel decay. For a consumer, the end result is often an engine that will not start or may start but runs poorly. However, dealers can use B3C Fuel Solutions' products to test, fix, and prevent fuel-related issues. Test: Knowing fuel quality is the first step to fixing and preventing fuel-related issues. Now you can check the gas in a customer's unit to see if it is a fuel-related issue by using Gasoline Test Swabs. The Test Swabs will check the gas to see if it is fresh, marginal (decaying) or bad, and if there is water present. You can then inform the customer the status of the gas and use it as part of your diagnostic service. This can also inform you if the repair is covered under warranty. The great part of the Test Swabs is that it only takes a few minutes to perform the test, and it can be done right in front of the customer so that there are no questions. Fix: Mechanic In A Bottle synthetic fuel additive works in 2-cycle and 4-cycle gasoline engines. It removes all varnish in the fuel system without having to remove the carburetor, removes carbon deposit and water, reconditions rubber and plastic com- ponents, and revitalizes old fuel. Mechanic In A Bottle rejuvenates fuel systems, so they start efficiently and operate in top condition. Prevent: How can a customer make sure that the unit will start? By using Ethanol Shield Fuel Stabilizer in the gas at all times, the fuel will stay fresh, and ethanol will not be an issue. The fuel will not be the reason the engine will not start. This means that there is an actual issue with the engine that needs service and very well could be cov- ered under the manufacturer's warranty. B3C Fuel Solutions LLC
