UPDATE:1 year and still cranks within the first 2-3 pulls. Probably will buy another when this one finally does bite the dust kzfaq.infoUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX . No issues at all. Very happy with it.UPDATE: After 6 months of use and over 70 uses I would still highly recommend this pressure washer. It does vibrate a decent amount but never had it “walk” like others have mentioned. No oil leaks, still seems to run like the day I bought it. Still cranks within 2-3 pulls every time. Very happy with my purchase!Have used it about a dozen times now. Plenty of power, cranks up on 1-2 pulls every time. My only complaint would be I wish it was a little taller to make it easier to walk with it (hits my ankles a lot) and that the two hose connections were a little further apart but it hasn’t caused me any issues. Seems to run a good 1-1/2-2 hrs on a full tank, overall a well built machine and definitely worth the money in my opinion.

You should have changed the pump oil. Its non-detergent 30W oil. And no you cannot overfill the regular oil in the engine, if its spilling out the top its full, and will continue to spill until its level with the opening. This isnt a lawn mower engine where overfilling will cause it to smoke. Also, use 10w-30 or straight 30 engine oil.

I can't thank you enough for this Video. Before watching this Video I didn't know where to start to change the Engine Oil, Air Filter, Pump Non Detergent Oil or to even put in the Pump Saver. I bought a used 3800psi Power Boss Pressure Washer at the Pawn Shop and I followed your instructions. I watched your Video several times, thank you again and God Bless you.

spark plug should have had gap checked prior to installation, old plug should have been looked at for how clean it was burning, pump oil should have been checked at the least or drained and replaced. air filter base should have been cleaned prior to new filter installation. draining engine oil, engine should have been tipped slightly to remove as much old oil and you can. this is was more of a SERVICE than a tune up but it was a sloppy service at that

@bamaslamma4965
@bamaslamma4965 5 жыл бұрын
Where to start... 1. Change the oil hot, with the pressure washer tilted toward the side of the engine that the plug is being removed from. 2. You can change the plug once the engine has cooled, making sure the gap is exactly what the manufacturer (in this case Honda), specifies. It doesn't hurt to spray a little WD-40 on the threads before installing the plug. 3. When you change the air filter, it makes sense to wipe off the housing base/blowing compressed air (with engine intake covered) to ensure the housing area is perfectly clean. (Homeboy here seems to leave a leaf or a moth sitting on the base, and just puts a new filter right on...) Honda wants you to check the oil level by "not threading" the dipstick plug, but rather-resting it on the top thread...good grief. 4. How about changing the pump oil?

@@Tiburnn there may be 200ml still in the system. Next time keep the engine running a while to warm up the oil which will make it more liquid. Then wherever the drain hole is tilt it as much as you can.

You could have like three fingers on one, two on the other and one on the third, or four fingers on one and one each on the other two; after very little thought, it sounds trustworthy to me. Although it's completely anecdotal my grandfather had three fingers on one hand and he was totally trustworthy. Not only that but he could crush your hand with those three fingers, OK, two fingers and a thumb, but you get the idea, just be careful during handshakes when you see that last combination.
