UPDATE:1 year and still cranks within the first 2-3 pulls. Probably will buy another when this one finally does bite the dust ru-vid.comUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX . No issues at all. Very happy with it.UPDATE: After 6 months of use and over 70 uses I would still highly recommend this pressure washer. It does vibrate a decent amount but never had it “walk” like others have mentioned. No oil leaks, still seems to run like the day I bought it. Still cranks within 2-3 pulls every time. Very happy with my purchase!Have used it about a dozen times now. Plenty of power, cranks up on 1-2 pulls every time. My only complaint would be I wish it was a little taller to make it easier to walk with it (hits my ankles a lot) and that the two hose connections were a little further apart but it hasn’t caused me any issues. Seems to run a good 1-1/2-2 hrs on a full tank, overall a well built machine and definitely worth the money in my opinion.
OMG! Thank you so much. I’ve been scouring the internet and RU-vid trying to find someone to show me how to assemble the valve. My parts kit did not come with instructions, and I didn’t know if the ball went in first or the o-ring first. You’re a life saver. Thanks so much, man!
You mentioned using oil or Vaseline to lubricate the "o" ring. Bad idea! Both contain petroleum distillates, which will immediately begin to degrade the rubber that the ring is made from. Typically, the first sign of that degradation is the o-ring will swell out of shape. Plumbers lubricant, or silly as it might sound, KY Jelly or an equivalent sexual lubricant will not degrade rubber (for obvious reasons!). I learned this firsthand when replacing the rubber seals on my discharge hose of my above ground pool. I used Vaseline, which IMMEDIATELY allowed the sealing ring to stretch out of correct size when the nut ring was tightened against it. I went to a pool store for the proper pool ring lube, and found that a toothpaste tube of it was near $20.00. Another customer overheard my story, and sent me to the dollar store, next door, where they sold an off-brand of sexual lubricant for ONE DOLLAR! Same ingredient as the $20.00 tube, next door!
Audience, but don't mean to be so bold. This gentleman is key on his information. He is on perfect point throughout this video. Tell your company to give you a fifth raise for the year, with 5 stars....You are a true "PRO"-Fessional.....
I just had one of these snap off on a honda pressure washer and I have to go get an easy out to get the broke off threads out to replace it but I can't find this injector valve anywhere.
My Briggs and Stratton SpeedClean 2800 PSI has worked so well however now the chemical injector only draws from my soap/chemical bucket when the unit is off. When the engine is not running it works like a champ! When the engine is on and running properly, it will not draw from the bucket at all. I purchased a replacement injector, ball, spring, and hose and after installing no change. I took off the manifold and checked the o-rings and valves and all looked clean and clear. I removed the unloader valve and it seems to work as expected. I am using the correct black nozzle attachment. I've tried lowering the water pressure at my faucet. Again, works exactly as expected with the engine is not on. Any ideas how I can get it to work again when the engine is on for that little extra pressure for applying chemical/soap?
I loosed the black regulator dial on top too much. The black dial came off. I can’t get it back on. The threads won’t catch with the spring installed. Any tips to reinstall that disk are appreciated.
What kind of pressure washer is this ?! I have had mine for 30 yrs. My grandfather bought it new with the Honda GX engine. AND O NEED A REPLACEMENT PUMP !! Who sold this very same cart that’s in these two videos from this guy ? Plz. Mine has a General Pump . Cant be found anymore. Mine was bought in the very late 1980’s. Best pressure washer I’ve ever used and it worked for 30 yrs and this is why I want it fixed like new. I would appreciate any information on this washer. My unloader looks like this one. Soap intake as-well
Anybody know if they make a real soap injection system instead of this Willy wonka crap? Brand new ball and spring. Without nozzle or nozzle for soap, it will not draw in liquid. But the check ball moves freely. $1290 CAT pressure sprayer and this "add on" feature is a joke. When it does work, it uses far too much soap or not enough. I am ready to get rid of the new rig and get something even better, but they all have this crap system. What do car wash places use?
