Ryobi Pressure Washer Maintenance | Oil Leak | Honda Engine Valve Cover | HANDYMAN HEADQUARTERS |

[@Pingaheimer]

Got the same machine with the same oil leak, was worried. Glad to see it's a relatively simple fix.

[@babooll5632]

So no paper gasket, just the permanent?

[@jorge1106able]

Thanks bro great video

[@HANDYMANHEADQUARTERS]

Your welcome!

[@rickysaldana9853]

mine leaks but not from the gasket cover? pools up right behind where you put the water hose..3300 ryobi its oil for sure just cant find where it seems to be leaking from

[@HANDYMANHEADQUARTERS]

Home depot does provide service on them .

@@HANDYMANHEADQUARTERS i appreciate the reply and to anyone searching the internet with issues like this i fixed my pump. ended up being the o ring gasket on the oil inlet tube. 20 cent part, took off the inlet and it was completely missing the gasket.

I have a 2800 psi Ryobi 2.3 and it is leaking oil from the carburetor when it is on, what could it be?

[@HANDYMANHEADQUARTERS]

Did you possibly over fill it with oil?

[@factionfx]

Came here looking for this because direct tools has all of these honda ryobis really cheap. like less than $250. If it's the valve cover gasket that is an easy fix....thank you for the video. Is your honda still leak-free a year later?

[@HANDYMANHEADQUARTERS]

Leak free

[@TjHall-mj5cg]

Wondering if still leaking after use. Just took mine apart to investigate same oil leak and noticed there is a rod with an o-ring that goes in from bottom up through gear. I suspect leak may be coming from that o-ring instead.

[@HANDYMANHEADQUARTERS]

It was ok then started again. You may be right! Most likely coming from that.

[@nathanhud671]

Same here. I fixed the gasket, then started leaking again. I will check the o ring. Any luck with that?

[@A.Edwardson]

That oil looks forever old. I guess the pressure washer's oil wasn't on the maintenance list?

[@marctoscanini7225]

So that’s why I found this in the garbage!! Easy fix, I new i should check you tube before I put it bk to the curb ….

[@michelleevans9869]

Next time put block and tilt it back and oil will stay inside when removing valve cover . Nice vid

[@HANDYMANHEADQUARTERS]

Good idea!

I saw a lot of bad reviews on Home Depot for Ryobi Pressure Washers leaking oil (brand new models). I can understand one being 4 years old and leaking. BTW, I have a high school friend that is a small engine repairman and he always gaps the spark plugs.

[@dicelord2193]

Don't waste your money on premium. Those engines are meant to run on regular. The best benefit is to use non ethanol gas.

[@juanalejo6766]

Mine did it after 4 months. Lucky Home Depot refunded me a new one.

[@HELPTHEMPLEASE]

After four months, Home Depot refunded you I can’t get them to refund me after a month Model # RY803325

[@WackyGuitar33]

They do not sell replacement valve covers. So don't bend it! Haha!

[@jandelahoussaye9834]

Yes they sell Replacement covers duhhh

So when I did a google search your video was the first and top on the list that came up only in my search I specifically stated Ryobi "Electric" Power Washer and it irks me to no end as to why Google ignored my search details. My problem is that my Ryobi is electric not Gas but yet I found an oil leak under it hence the reason why I searched as I was under the impression electric motors needed no maintenance, it's a closed system with no oil fill cap or reservoir. As far as my gas powered equipment, I service them all once and twice a year which keeps them up to par. Unfortunately this/your video was of no help to me in my case which stands to reason, Gas/Electric. I'm leaning to the fact that Ryobi is no more than disposable crap tools.
