Title: Leaky wand
Post by: Ian Gourlay on October 03, 2012, 03:58:59 pm

My wand drips a little water at the jets when I am not jetting . Is it just the jets that need replacing or is there another reason. I have not found any washers etc in the Wand but are there some ?

Valve repair kit - the teflon caps inside wear and let some pressure through. I replaced mine 3 times this year! Less than a tenner so cheap enough, and only takes 5 minutes.

Those viagra emails aren't half annoying.  However on a positive note, I've stopped getting the spam emails about p3nis enlargement.. maybe their spyware has had a better look :D

Always good to have spare valve repair kit.

It could be a couple other things ttoo.

a) Male conector could be knackard/worn
b) The whole valve asembly could be worn.

So if it still leaks after intalling the valve repair kit (or after a ffew days), then try the above two suggestions.
