    I have a cheap-o one from Amazon that had good reviews.
    DUSICHIN SFL-001
    It was dual named a foam cannon and foam lance. It was like $15 and works well enough for what I need. I bought it primarily to wash the camper. The problem I have is, I only have a cheap, electric Green Works pressure washer and it doesn't push enough volume to really make that thick foam blanket like it should. But, if I keep the spray a little narrower, I can get the job done, just takes a little longer.

    Anybody ever experience steering issues that may appear to be PS pump or whatever , but could also be U joint issues?
    At dealership now , and why I have platinum warranty, I’m a little concerned it might be something stupid like debris and salt stiffening the steering and it won’t be covered.

    Thoughts?

    Taking your lumps and learning lessons is what it’s all about.
    Let it roll off your back and push forward.

    Ok
    These foam cannons. I’ve seen one that’s like a pump sprayer and others that have hose hookups. Do the latter need to be used with a pressure washer, or can I get away with just using available pressure from house plumbing?
    Thanks

    All for the 'let it roll off your back' approach but this type of shit is infuriating. You want kids to grow up with an appreciation and respect for LEOs and a sense that people aren't going to screw you over 'just cause they can'. Asshats like that school guard have the ability to single-handedly ruin people at a young age all because they're in a power struggle all by themselves. When I was in high school, I worked hard for all the money I had, $20 was a lot of money. Something like that should have just been a warning, applying a monetary amount is just asinine.
    If I recall, there are 2 versions, one is meant to be downstream from a pressure washer and one works off hose pressure. From what I read, the hose pressure version isn't really worth it.
    I had that once in my Tacoma and it was because the tech didn't tighten down the LCA bolts after an alignment and they were shifting in the slots.
