Depending on the mood
my compressor will go to 100 or 110 sometimesIf that doesn't clear it, you are probably done.
I don't know what the tube was rated for and I am not sure the manifold connection would take that. And I probably should not suggest you use that PSI !
We remove each loop from the manifold to find the plugged ones and either clear, or eliminate them.
The high psi is usually a last ditch effort! Start with 30 psi and work up.
George, now with Slant Fin, stops in here ocassionally, he was involved with the Solaroll early on and may have more pressure data.
Good luck.
