Picked this up from the local scrap yard for free. Pump no work, so check & find start Cap is faulty. Replace cap with a freeby from an other motor in the scrap yard of the same value. Pump now works, so at this stage have a working pressure cleaner. Steam cleaner burner wont light, find HV igniter is burnt out. Decide to use a car ignition coil from a GMH V6 motor also in junk yard. To drive the coil use a salvaged Nissan Ignition driver transistor. Now have to spend a few dollars to build a driver for the Ign transistor. Now have a fully functioning pressure steam cleaner. Just need a 12v battery to power the igniter, easier than building a powersupply for it. It pays to have a freindly scrap yard (I do ocasionaly fix things for the owner for free).
