ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 21y 4m 15d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 01/09/07 06:43 AM Share Posted 01/09/07 06:43 AM I found my Karchnier pressure washer did not work well by sucking from a bucket.I got a 40lt bin and put a threded click on hose attachment on it. I have found I can wash the whole car with 20lt and the water pressure makes the pressure washer work almost as good as on mains pressure.
