Homelite 2700psi Pressure washer carb fix. She runs great again

We have had this small cheap pressure washer for years but when you just run out of choke you need to do something with the carburetor. In this case it was almost cheaper to buy a new carb the rebuild the old one. The Best thing is that you can do it yourself and save on the labor.

Thanks for the video. I put in a new carb and got mine running again but it keeps dying. I took out the (new) spark plug and it was black with soot. Does this mean running too rich? I assumed the new carb was properly set but maybe I need to adjust it? Thanks for your video.

they should be just about ready to go out of the box. But it does sound like it is a bit rich. You might have a stuck float. there is a reason why they are inexpensive. you can take off the bowel on the bottom to see. You will spill gas. if all of that is OK then there should be some mixture screws you can play with but it might be a return and replacement. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

i do not see why not. you might have to make some sort of bracket. But i believe you can get it done.

I regret buying this pressure washer. I should have just gone electric!

Sorry to hear that. This one has been OK for us. I do wish it was a bit bigger. We used it the other day and besides it being 40 degrees it was fine. :) Good luck
