Subaru EA190V 3100 PSI Pressure Washer Problems

This video documents steps I've taken to repair the Subaru EA190V 3100 PSI pressure washer machine that had symptoms such as Hard to start, Rough engine, and Intermittent water pressure.
The most common cause of this is fuel being left inside the carburetor over a year, and as fuel evaporates it leaves sticky varnish behind which clogs up tiny jet holes inside the carburetor. Therefore, the carburetor is unable to supply proper amount of fuel to the engine consistently.
So this video covers, steps I've take to unclog tiny fuel passage hole called "jet".

You are very good at explaining and showing each step. I am working on my pressure washer and your instructions really helped. Thanks for your help

Oh thanks for the kind feedback.

Thanks for making this video! Yes my Subaru carb jets were blocked however I did not take the carb off, I took your advice about the jet screw (flat screwdriver) Once I removed the jet screw & using Guitar strings I cleaned all the holes. My Subaru was a no start however after cleaning it and 2 pulls the Subaru is alive. Thanks

Just bought one that didnt start at a garage sale for 80 bucks, still has the tags on it. Gonna check the easy stuff first, thanks for the video.

@DIYLifeSkills Год назад

Wow a bargain. 95% it’s carburetor.

@DIYLifeSkills Год назад

You might already know but be sure to start in (cold) choke position so that carburetor choke is closed to allow more fuel than air initially and then once it starts and runs for 5-10 seconds, move choke setting to (warm or run) so that air can come in before using the power washer. Also do not let these machines too long run without water connected and pressure washer running as too much pressure build up in pressure pump can break internal parts.

I’m curious if you got it working?

Thanks, Fixed mine by cleaning the main jet with some old guitar string

@DIYLifeSkills Год назад

LOL that’s very clever. Never thought of guitar string before for carb cleaning but thin string can work very well.

I need to replace starter solonoid

@SheDanNick 2 месяца назад

Hi, wondering if you know part ;number for the wheel. One of the wheels on my same unit failed and need to replace. Your video is excellent. Dan

@DIYLifeSkills 2 месяца назад

There are different variations to the EA190V model, so you'll have to google the exact model number to find a matching wheel. Some are sold on Amazon or from other EA190V parts online stores.

@FairfaxPirate 2 месяца назад

Greetings All. Can someone tell me what the part number is for the OEM spark plug that came with the washer? Thanks.

@DIYLifeSkills 2 месяца назад

SP-L82YC-DL110, Champion L82Y, or NGK BP6HS spark plugs for Subaru Robin Engine Power Equipment EA190V 4-Cycle OHC 5.5 h.p

What battery if a good replacement

@DIYLifeSkills 10 месяцев назад

Look for Subaru EA190V 12V 6.5Ah battery replacement battery. Amazon has some at $38.

@David-ny2qs 10 месяцев назад

Do you happen to have the model number?

@DIYLifeSkills 10 месяцев назад

I just checked and there is no sticker that shows the model number. It only has the S/N (serial number) which is EA190-1535100

@DIYLifeSkills 10 месяцев назад

If you have a sticker on your’s, let me know where it’s located and I’ll check again.

@JS-yx3wc 4 месяца назад

You do not have to remove the soap canister to remove the carburetor.

@DIYLifeSkills 4 месяца назад

That’s true but I was trying to remove just the main jet for cleaning initially without removing the carb but since that didn’t come out, I ended up having to remove the carb.

@PrimusPilus73 2 месяца назад

Mine just self destructed. I've had it for about 7-8 years now and it probably had 50-60 hours on it. Anyway, I started right up as normal, I then heard a loud POP and it died. When I pull the cord it doesn't feel like it has any compression. It back fired and literally caught on fire when I tried to start it will starting fluid.

@DIYLifeSkills 2 месяца назад

wow that’s crazy. I work on these small engines and never seen an engine actually blow up. When you started the engine, was your water line all connected at the time? In these pressure washer machines nearly all the time, it’s the pump that fails way way before engine would fail. I wonder if pump was locked up and it messed up engine piston movement.

@PrimusPilus73 2 месяца назад

@@DIYLifeSkills It certainly surprised me. If I have some time I might tear it down real quick. I don't know much about these Robins engines, maybe a valve broke or got bent?

@PrimusPilus73 Месяц назад

@@DIYLifeSkills Howdy, yes it was connected. I haven't had time to tear down the engine, however it's on my to-do list as I'm curious as to what happened.

@nanasloves Месяц назад

A couple of things to try. If you don’t want to buy carburetor cleaner and like All A Dollar, use the yellow ‘Awesome’ cleaner. I dissolves grease like nobodies business. Also, try heat to soften varnished parts if it’s taken off the machine and the gas is cleaned off!

@DIYLifeSkills Месяц назад

@@nanasloves Hmm, next time, I’ll give it a shot
