Foam gun/water pressure

[imported_Ubryaj]

Hey everyone,

Today while washing my Miata I had some trouble with my foam gun. The first amount that I put in created foam just fine (I use Gold Class). I used this as a presoak and did the whole car. Next, I filled it up again by putting the soap in after filling it up and then gave it somewhat of a shake. This is when I had trouble. All that came out was a water/soap mix. No foam. I was wondering if I am using too much soap or if I should put it in the soap before filling the container?



One other problem I`ve been having is low water pressure. I have well water and the pressure is turned up all the way according to my Dad. The foam out of the gun will travel about a foot and stop. I do have an hose filter on the hose due to hard water and I`m not sure what size hose I have but I`m sure this is part of the problem. Should I invest in this pump from Nothern Tool that I have seen posted before?:think:

Just trying to get my washing technique perfect. Thanks.
