Here's how to fix the no pump problem
• Pressure Washer - moto...

[@russellbarton7565]

My homelite pressure washer has a Briggs And Stratton and I have been using it for 12 years

[@Justwantahover]

I just bought one like yours, and I watched the video to see what they say about it and I'm pleased to see your comment on my actual product (thumbs up). I told the dealer that "you can't beat that"!

[@korashschiff]

Very helpful overview video Billy. Just bought this machine after bringing back a demo Karcher that turned out to be missing tips and apparently came with no detergent bottle, just a clear hose with a filter. This unit seems great and comes with a soap container attached to the machine and the same great Honda Motor, which I am told is a a super motor, easy to start and run. Thanks, Ted Schiff

[@burbbilly]

Theodore Schiff Hey Ted, Yea you should like this unit. I've had no problems with it other than don't leave it outside when the weather gets cold.

[@korashschiff]

Key to any good machine in addition to draining it of gas and oil before storing it away for tge winter In addition to keeping clean, dry and properly lubricated. Thanks Billy, Ted ☺

HEY BILLY ,I'm SO GLAD I SAW YOUR VIDEO ABOUT THAT VALVE BEING STUCK. IT WORKED !!! I'M SO HAPPY . THE GUY AT HOMEDEPOT SAYS IT'S THE PUMP. YOU ARE A LIFE SAVOR

[@burbbilly]

James Weissbach Great post! Thanks! and never trust the "guys" at Home Depot

[@lesliesheppard8256]

Like the safety remarks

[@jokecol1583]

Very Helpful! Thanks Burbbilly!

[@Kahleah727]

Well, now I'm scared to use mine. We just bought one from a friend (who hadn't used it yet) and I've never used a pressure washer before. I better wait til the hubby gets home so he can show me :)

[@burbbilly]

Kristina Schafer Don't be scared of it, as long as you're paying attention to what your doing you will be fine. Run the water for a bit before you start it to get the air out of the line or it will run choppy until it clears the air. Since this is a unit you're buying off of someone, make sure to check the oil level before you run it as well. Don't point it at anyone and don't wash the dog with it and you'll be A ok! :-)

[@Kahleah727]

Haha.. That's funny. Thanks for the heads up. I'll definitely use my common sense while operating it :)

Hello I have the same model but mine never came with the soap nozzle is it a must to have to make the soap work none of the other nozzles will work

[@caseyrichardson3464]

I am still trying to trouble shoot the problem. I performed the repair but still no luck. How far should the mechanism go down when you press it against the pavement? Mine will only go about halfway. I put some pretty good pressure on to it but no luck. Thanks!

[@mindciller]

My pump went out. 2014 model, so I got less than 2 years service. The pump is in a zillion broken pieces. I run it about 20minutes a day 5 days a week

[@leepeoples333]

Quick question, where is the nut you need to take off to drain the oil? I have checked manual and cannot find it. Love the pressure washer, works awesome!

[@burbbilly]

+Lee Peoples I believe on that one you just tilt it on its side and drain it out the fill hole. I had a lawnmower like that as well, I'm not a fan of that way of doing it but im pretty sure thats how it's done. when i'm back home again i'll double check mine to confirm but I'm pretty sure thats the set up

[@mattseymour8637]

Some power! Quickly cleans it. Have bought the Wolf 3000 psi one. Is this good?

[@burbbilly]

+Matt Seymour I don't know the wolf brand, sorry

[@eliadsavel8015]

i got my honda 2700psi homelite for a very small fee , the motor was blocked because was no oil in it i remove the top and with a large crow bar i spin the motor , i put the motor oil in , i connect it to the water and a squeeze the trigger ,as i hold the trigger open i start the washer .yes the washer work very good i wander why he sold this very good unit for a small fee

[@user-ni5ne5qp9p]

What if the pressure washer started and then dead started and then dies

[@rubenm567]

Nice review

[@lindaconley8158]

I have had nothing but trouble with mine. Every time I try to use it something else is wrong. This time the water is shooting out of the sides instead of the head.

[@burbbilly]

Linda Conley It sounds like the head isn't attached properly, try and reseat it and make sure your threaded connections are tight. If that doesn't work send me a picture of where it is leaking and I'll see if I can help you, might be an easy fix. Send pic to [e-mail] BurbBilly

[@ivanibarra6542]

Is the hose 1/4” ?

[@bobmoriarty7764]

Will this clean vinyl siding on my house 2.5 - 3 stories high while standing on the ground?

[@burbbilly]

Hey Bob, I don't think any pressure washer will clean that high. They sell extender kits for the wand that will help you reach up there but when you put pressure on them they will flex and push away from the house. What worked for me was to use a short extender wand with a swivel end that I could position how I wanted it and then I'd climb up a ladder and clean. You have to be really careful doing it that way but that was the only way I found that worked. I'm open to other ideas if anyone else has them because it's not a fun job power washing off a ladder.

[@shellzcheez]

Thanks for the video

[@burbbilly]

shellzcheez You're welcome Shellz

[@wing103]

how about under the engine, there is a white color kind of have a slot on the top look like a screw, and I have water come out from there..... can anyone tell me how to fix it. Please help.

[@burbbilly]

+Wing Nin Ngan Wing if you send me a picture of what you're talking about that would help or take a short 10 second video of the problem and send it to me. Also include permission for me to use the picture/videoso I can repost it if needed send to [e-mail]

[@eddieedentertainment131]

U must have a turbo nozzle makes the job alot easier

[@burbbilly]

I haven't used the turbo nozzle, is that one that uses a fan spray or a point?

[@JOEGGGJOE]

i want to change the oil. wheres the oil drain plug?

[@burbbilly]

I don't have my unit by me now but I'm pretty sure you tilt it on its side and drain it out the fill tube/hole. I'll confirm when I look at my unit but if I remember right that's the way to do it.

[@JOEGGGJOE]

oh, ok. how much and what kind of oil should i use? thanks
