    I have a new Gilmour foam gun that I cannot use due to having low water pressure and that causes it to barely foam at all. It is brand new as I tried it twice. If interested pm me an offer. Shipping is $8.00.

    Did you dilute the soap in the tank with water. I have low pressure too and I got mine to work well by taking my soap (which recommends 1oz per gallon) and mixing it 3:1 with water in the jug and then setting the slide to the 4:1 ratio. It seems the product was too thick by it`s self for my low pressure. I think it was SpoiledMan that suggested this solution or maybe Setec...can`t remember for sure. You`re still only using 1oz of soap per gallon at this ratio so it`s not wasteful.

    Yes I fooled around with different dilutions and settings, I must have very low pressure. I gave up. Thanks for the tip.

    I think my manual said 40-60 psi.
