I was trying to sweep on some anhydrous fertilizer (hadn’t used the old auction Flexking sweep for fertilizing before) and kept having to adjust the continental regulator higher than the chart showed.
Finally, I was standing there checking all the sweep nozzles watching them blow when all of a sudden - and on its own - the applicator manifold pressure jumped around and then went from about 25 psi to 45 or so and the sweeps were all blowing a lot harder then.
I wondered if the internal excess flow valve had been sticking and finally turned loose (though I had opened and closed the valve several times slowly before) - but the tank then applied about as expected after that.
I went to refill it thinking it would be fine - but it seems to be pretty low application pressure again even though it was hotter temps today.
Does anyone have any ideas on such a flow problem? Or could it be something I’m not thinking of? If I can get this tank empty I’ll just get another one after this.
