    Steve,,
    Just cost justify it like the wimmin do, tell here that you saved here big $$$ because the pressure washer was like around $1,000 but you copped it on sale for 46% off the price and that was something you really needed for around the house, but you were waiting for them to go on sale. ! It works for them but for us....Be ready to duck ! CM

    Yeah and that first decarb is always a good one as well. Needless to say if you do it the wrong way...... it is a effective insect treatment for the neighborhood. I think some of you know about the "instructions" that were around say.... 2 or 3 yrs ago

    My engine kills the grass just running it for ten or fifteen min.

    If you can't run with the big dogs, just stay on the porch.
