Dream on son 200 deg atm does not = 185 at the wand unless you are cleaning with the tm inside the house. Who in this day and age uses a pump sprayer to apply pre spray?

I have a Cleanco Compact, I took off the high idle switch and replaced it with a choke pull off switch, as the airflow is restricted it pulls the idle up, this idea came from the way my old cleanco classic worked, if I pull the hose off the wand for about 5 seconds, the truck reverts to an idle, saves on gas..200 deg. stat=180-185 at the wand, that works fine for me, I also have a short length of hp hose that I fill my pump sprayer with, this cycles the cold water in the hose and fills the pump sprayer with hot water..

I have a HF (use it the most) pepsi sprayer ( I like it for commercial jobs) and an electric (I like it for scotchguard)
can't beat a hydroforce for empties or nasties |

Yes, I'm serious, If your out their all day 10-15min here and there could add up to 1-1.5hrs idling v.s. all out.. The other day it took me 20min to get a big room ready for extraction and had to mix some more prespray.. But only 1 min to set my tm to idle. 20min full blast or idle.???? I choose idle. What do the rest of you do? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ doug = full blast steaminpile = full blast john L = idle

Are you serious? I have never heard of anyone doing that. By the time you go in and out you could have the furniture moved? Savings & wear minimal at most.

Ok.. doug and steam, your tm is running full blast or let's say 2800-3000rpm's. You have a trashed LR,DR combo. you move some furn vac, prespray and agitate, dwell say it takes 10 min. or so to do this.. Why not idle your tm for that time? save's on gas and wear.
