I have been working again on my system. I made up an aluminium frame this time and am trying to get the design a bit organised.



A 100psi pump is what I used.

I think it would send too much water if it is unrestricted - depends how fast you are driving though. You will need to add some valves to restrict flow.

I will add the electronics and cover on but that's roughly what I did for the pump and nozzle side.
