Got that pressure washer running good now so you can clean that deck that you worked so hard on. You are a hard working man.

That's exactly the way it happens!! It was tough as the pressure washer was really struggling and would barely spray at all even with the pressure of a regular garden hose. Thanks for watching Rita! 🛠️

Very nice video. I m working on one very similar. I was dreading taking the pump off, but you show exactly what I will find. Thank you.

All those hex sockets for you to use EXACTLY what the engineers had in mind! lol

Nice replace instructions, very thorough as always. I used a power washer a few times in the past and I thought it was fun. Thanks for another useful video! 🤗👍🏼

I appreciate it AZ! Yeah this will come in handy hopefully as spring is here and pressure washers may need some fixing! 🛠️

Hello. I have an HDS 8/17-4M machine that is having an error when switching to eco mode but cannot heat water. There is no error message on the screen. I hope to receive help from you and everyone. Thank you.

Did you have any problems removing the hose from the old pump? I don't have water pump pliers but my slip joint pliers usually get the job done. Have I missed any special technique required to remove the hose?

Hello - so not sure by 'hose' if you mean the small, clear hose used for cleaner, or the actual water hose. For the water hose I remove it after each use so it's not difficult to remove. As for the clear hose used for siphoning the cleaner through the pump, my new pump came with a brand new hose so I didn't need to remove the old one. Even if I did have to remove it for some reason and it was stuck, I'd probably just cut it off at the base (removing like 1") and reinstall on the new pump as that 1" wouldn't matter. Thanks for watching! 🛠️
