This is the kind of repair I like the most. Your thought process was spot on and I agree that the use of ATF was Genius! Isolating the 2 possible problems is just plain smart. Good job and Thanks so much. 👍

Bruce, a little tip I learned from other mower guys here on the tube. Take off the gas cap and put a plastic shopping bag over the opening, then screw the cap back over it. That should stop the gas from leaking out of the cap. Saves the muss and the fuss.

You are the best. I lost my husband and am determined to be independent. Guess what exactly my issue. I didn't put the cap on tight and it threw oil everywhere. Checked cap there is my answer. I couldn't function without utube videos. Thanks.

Thanks for the video. I’m baffled with a similar problem and it may very well be the same situation. I’ve had it up on my bench twice but can’t see a leak. I’m gonna pull the pump next so you saved me the doubt as to whether it’s worth it.

Bruce: Nice Video. I have had several of those same pumps that were installed wrong from the factory and cracked the top of the pump housing. The spacers were not installed from the factory and when tightened down to the motor the key jammed and cracked the pump housing. Thanks for the video's.

@Wakeupandsniffthecoffee

Mine had the same issue. Oil in similar areas, but my oil fill is a screw down type and it was tight. Engine seal seems okay, although there was oil all over. When I removed the pump from the motor, the black seal on the pump, that covers the bearings, was loose and separated from the pump. I'm thinking that it worked loose and thus the oil leak. What I haven't determined is if the seal is maybe worn and will leak or come loose again. If it is that, then it's an easy fix of replacing it. In addition, I had low water pressure. I discovered all of this when I tried it for the first time after purchasing it second hand. Because I didn't let the water run to be sure it was cool, it could have been too hot and that would cause the pressure to drop as a safety measure to prevent overheating. I'll know soon.

Hello, if you would put a sandwich bag over the gas receiver on the gas tank and screw the cap on you won't loose fuel. You can also use a Arkansas tumble weed, aka Walmart bag, if you don't have a baggie. Everyone has a Arkansas tumble weed.
@BrucesShop

Under load shouldn't you adjust the rpms on the generator to give a 60hz output, which is necessary for electronic equipment like for the circuitry of a gas furnace if you house goes without power in the dead of winter and you use the generator hookup for the furnace, or freezer, refrigerator, or microwave, or gas stove, or the high efficiency clothes washer... All these appliances have a degree of electronic circuitry that you don't want damaged.

@ranger1244
@ranger1244 7 лет назад
I have a new ryobi 3100psi pressure washer with idle down feature. When I release the trigger the engine doesn't idle down and it stalls out. I don't think it's the engine or carb. I'm careful to drain fuel from carb and tank if it's not used for long periods of time. Have you experienced this problem?
@BrucesShop
@BrucesShop 7 лет назад
No I haven't. It sounds like the motor is being shut down electrically. Does is shut right off or die slowly? The newer stuff have electric throttle controls like the generators and I usually see stuff that is 3 years older or more. Do you have a warranty? Bad question eh!!!
@ranger1244
@ranger1244 7 лет назад
Bruce Pender it shuts right off. It feels like the pump is building up too much pressure and stops the engine. I can restart it but I have to keep the trigger squeezed. Then when I release the trigger it dies again. I'm wondering if it's in the valve body. I checked the unloader valve. It appears normal. There's a similar valve that's connected to the governor. It had some dirt in there. I cleaned it out and lubed the o-rings and reassembled it. I also ran a winterizer solution through the pump to lube the valve body and pump mechanism. I'll try it tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed. Thanks for responding.
@BrucesShop
@BrucesShop 7 лет назад
Good luck. On mine I have to start the machine with the trigger pulled then I am OK. It may be an overpressure shutdown. Unloaders are always the first place to look.
@ranger1244
@ranger1244 7 лет назад
Bruce Pender thank you sir. It does have a warranty but I want to know why it's doing it so I can help other folks with similar problems. I'm a DIY person like yourself.
@TheEgg185
@TheEgg185 7 лет назад
+Ranger1 I know what the problem is. There is a relief (bypass?) valve that redirects the water when the trigger isn't being pushed. Without it, the engine would stall from the pressure, just like yours. Its a simple fix. Look it up here on youtube. You just have to take it off and bang it a bit then put it back together. Let me know how this works.
