  • One of my wife's coworkers had this machine and said that gas was pouring out of it. So lets get a look at it.

    Super helpful! I just had the same problem with our Dewalt pressure washer. It was a pain to get the gasket for the bowl back on but saved me having to send the washer in for service. No tarnish in mine but was some black gunk keeping the needle from closing. Thank you!

    • @mtcoorscan

      Black gunk is probably rubber from the fuel lines to the tank. All caused by wonderful ethanol. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra $$ to use nothing but ethanol free gas in ALL your lawn equipment. 2 and 4 strokes.

    Having the same exact problem on a 2016 year 3,000 PSI model sitting in my father in laws garage unused for years. Now to do the cleaning and see if I can get busy ! ( guessing he used it for a project, then parked it ) We have access to multiple gas stations with 100 % gas, no never use the Ethanol in anything ( except the automobiles ) 100% for the 1973 F100 as well.
    Thanks for the straight up helpful video !

    I wish I had seen this video before removing the whole carburetor. It was a pain trying to line up the different gaskets to reinstall it. I had put this PW away years ago because it stopped working and then purchased a new one. I pulled it out yesterday from storage and cleaned the carburetor, fuel line, and gas tank. It runs fine now.

    yeah run the water through the hose to clear out air, then hook up to pressure washer then squeeze the trigger to prime the pump and get air out of the pressure washer lines. then start the pressure washer. if you pressure washer wont or is hard to start with water on, squeeze the trigger as you start the pressure washer.

  • @roberthartig5868

    Most pressure washers require the water turned on first, before engine start so as not to damage the pressure pump seals.

      @@corollamaxx8596 The speed of these engines is governed by the incoming water flow, and that can sometimes mean if you've flooded the engine or are running too rich that less or no water pressure makes the starting easier. Its still not good for it; just easier to start.

    Mine runs but the pump is constantly turning off and on when I try to pressure wash. Pump is brand new. Fuel is also coming out of the vent tube from the gas tank and dumping it on my air filter. Open the tank while running and the fuel is bubbling.
