Well i got a little info on another board,but im confused. Im getting a 55 gallon water tank and want this craftsman pressure washer it is like 3hp. anyways, I went to sears and the guy said it will not pull the water out cause it no pressurized. then I heard about something called a "sureflo" thing that you put in between the tank and pressure washer to make it work? Anyone have this or know what im talking about?



If so what model do I need and any other info well appreciated

Thanks

How much water does the pressure washer use gallons per minute? My pressure washer is 2400 psi, 2.4 gallons per minute. I don't use a pump. I rely on gravity. No problems.
 
I race quads and when we take the PW along with us we jsut rely on gravity out of a 30 gallon ba rrel to feed it with no problems

I think you should be fine. The only thing that I would recomend is that you use a full port ball valve when you set up your water tank instead of using a conventional spigot. The full port ball valve is less restrictive (flows a lot more water). When I first set up my tank I was using a conventional spigot and I was not getting enough water flow. I switched to the full port ball valve and have had no problems.
