Hmm? hope it works for the kids sake, they'll be gutted, I think it should be OK, have decent snow foam that foams now just on low power, as CG said, as long as there is air it should foam, I will post pics by boxing day |

you should see foam produced by my 3 phase 190 bar 20 l / minute industrial power washer. I can fully coat the insides of a 10,000 sq ft chicken shed in around 10 minutes. should be able to fill a fl2 fully with foam in about 5 seconds , should anyone want a upholstery clean

! Oh well, I bought some anyways to have a try. To be honest, I generally like the job of washing my car by hand so it is no problem if it doesn't work properly. I mainly wanted it for the wheel arches and stuff. You guys use it under there right? 1st time FL2 owner. 2007 SE i6 in Tambora Flame. |

No worries, living on an acre block, it won't be running anywhere but into the gardens. Maybe it will kill some on the weeds 1st time FL2 owner. 2007 SE i6 in Tambora Flame. |

Thanks! It is a cheaper petrol driven unit that I got here in Australia. It has the same connectors as the karcher petrol driven unit, and not the standard karcher bayonet fitting ones. The bottom right picture below provides a good representation of how I change the nozzles on the lance.
You pull the collar back on the lance part to insert or remove the nozzles. To be honest, the washer is a Christmas present and whilst I have opened to box to check it is all there, I haven't actually gotten it out to play with it yet. I am wandering if there is a threaded connector close to the handle on the lance, so that I can unscrew the wand portion of it and screw on the special AB foaming lance. Ahh well, I will just play with it as it is and see if it just works. Thanks for all your help guys!
