EZ Fix For Locked Engine on Pressure Washer Small Engine

This video shows you how I repaired my pressure washer with a locked up pull cord and engine. Some pressure washers are hard to pull because of the water pressure in the line. Once you squeeze the handle, the pull cord works like normal. This problem in this video is different, where the pull cord is locked up with a stuck engine.

You just stayed me 700 thank you

[@johnleader4526]

I had this happen to me while trying to use it. I squeezed the trigger on the gun to relieve pressure and it worked. Maybe you have to much water in the pump/line

[@craigrose7182]

You sir, are a godsend. I bought a new pressure washer last year, treating myself for father's day, but procrastinated until last night when I finally assembled it. Stupid me started it without it having oil - who knew? Well, now I know... Anyway, it turned over for a minute and then died. Couldn't turn it over, was thinking it would be a $400 paperweight. You saved me! Thank you - thank you - thank you!

[@scottliv]

Amazing, it worked for me. I put about 2-3 tablespoons of mystery oil in the cylinder then took off the recoil and started moving it back and forth. At first it only moved an eighth of an inch. Within a minute I could turn the it. But the plug back in and fired it up.

[@ToxicGamer86454]

If you need some ‘magic mystery oil’ you have bigger problems. May as well just fix it the right way.

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Have you ever had a stuck engine? How did you deal with it?

[@chrisg334]

Thank you so much! I didn’t any oil on hand and just tried taking the pull off and using a screwdriver to loosen it up. Worked like a charm!

[@javiertabora3547]

Thank you my friend.. This is happening to me right now .. I do all the steps tomorrow.. I let you know how it went down 👍

[@danyhernandez6656]

That's very funny, I have that problem with a Power Walter that is almost new. And I said, I'm going to buy another one, but I'm going to try this oil that you mention.,

[@kenibnanak5554]

So the solution was brute force to free whatever was stuck. I am not sure the mystery oil helped in any way in this case.

[@erinlynnlovelace2609]

[@kitchenpinoy5974]

A few squirt of starting fluid will help a lot
