Title: smaller jets for a tuckerpole
Post by: pt on July 06, 2006, 08:05:18 pm

Just getting my diy system up and running. A few minor niggles, but i want my system up and running perfect before i hit the streets. My jets are round and about 4mm in diameter, which i think are to big as i am getting no length to my jets for rinsing (even with the pump on full power). My question is where can i get smaller jets which will fit  my brush.

Thanks,

Paul.

dont know where you can get smaller jets.
my collegue was told to fill the hole with solder and drill it to desired size.

Hi Paul. Same prob for me.

What i did was to buy some clear tube which they use for windscreen washers, take off the fixing nut to the brush, heat up the tube in hot water and pull it through, trim back as needed then with a 3mm drill carefully re-drill the hole for your water to come through.  I found 3mm holes to be perfect but if you want them smaller drill them smaller.

Hope that helps it did the trick for me.
