Finally ! A person who advises people to take a photograph of parts and connections prior to disassembling so you can easily put it all together again. Thanks

HA! It's mainly cause I have the memory of a goldfish. I replaced a timer switch in our clothes dryer and I know that if I didn't take 10 pictures of all kinda angles it would blown up. - John

[@gradyclayburgh8411]

Thanks! mine was having same problem, I put a new carb on and uggg same problem, then, I watched your video...carb spring and linkage was not connected in the right place, now it's working!

[@UDoIt2]

Thank you for your feedback. I've done that several times and each time it gets me. I had to look through my old footage to see how the linkages were connected.

[@LaurieLane75]

Thank you for this video! I bought the carburetor in your link and your video made it a breeze to swap it out with the old one!!

[@UDoIt2]

Excellent news! Thank you for the feedback! - John

Luckily this is the same exact pressure washer I have and I was trying to find a vid about the carb. Thanks

[@UDoIt2]

Thank you! Were you able to get it running? - John

Seafoam in the gas helps too at the end of the season. Lesson learned

[@UDoIt2]

Thank you - I have that and I have some other brands treatment. (I just have to remember to put it in the tank) - John

I have this same model that I bought in 2014. Can you tell me what the model number is? I can not find it anywhere on it. I want to replace the fan on mine but do not have the model number.

[@UDoIt2]

I believe the model number is Troy-Bilt 875EX 020676-00 - there are slight variations but the engine should be the same.

[@josemorales8336]

so just cleaning the carburetor doesn't work?

[@UDoIt2]

Thank you for rhe question. Cleaning the carb probably would have fixed it but I wanted to demonstrate replacing the carb as an option. Here are some other videos where I clean the carb. I also learned quite a bit from Chickanic's videos (after I msde this video) where she spoke about old gas picking up moisture and destroying the carb. udoit.me/home-improvement/equipment-maintenance-repair/pressure-washer/

[@PhatBoyiee]

did you unclog the bulb under the carburetor? the majority of the time for the Briggs machines they clog there specially if you do not have a filter like the one U Do It added to his.

[@juggalowhoa]

my problem was the hose that goes to the back of the air filter box, i took off the top of the pressure washer and eventually notice it was NOT connected, put the hose back on and screwed the top cover back on and it started up and stayed on.

my briggs and stratton 3000 psi power washer stops running when the water is connected. not sure why. thanks

[@UDoIt2]

I'm not an expert on this but I encountered it as a result of connecting the linkages incorrectly after working on my carb. I had to go back to some previous videos that I shot to compare my connections. Once everything was hooked up correctly it worked. If everything is connected correctly then it could be a carb issue. Again, I'm not an expert on this area. - John

[@jayliu7786]

@@UDoIt2 thank you so much for your advice. i think it was a carb issue.
