Just want to thank you for for making this. I was on the verge of ordering a new pump. After seeing your video I took my pump apart and cleaned out whatever I could get at and reassembled it not expecting much. Much to my amazement it’s running like new again. There was a lot of mineral buildup in there looks like I’ll have to drain it after each use and maybe run some vinegar through it periodically to try to dissolve the buildup. Also my ez start valve was completely seized up. Had quite a time freeing that up. Thanks again you’ve earned a new subscription 👍

So first off I want to say thank you so much for doing this video/tutorial. I have been attempting to find one that had this much detail, as I find myself attempting to save my pressure washer (inherited it from my father who passed away recently & seems my ex did some damage to it without my knowledge, so now I am attempting to avoid buying a new pump as that can be pricey) I have purchased all new check valves and the white plastic rings as well as the rubber seals that go on the head of the pump( the old valves & parts were melted or damaged in a way that seems to be melted) I had NO pressure on the water exiting the pump when the pressure washer was running, prompting me to disassemble the pump to find the damaged parts, I have since installed the new parts and cleaned up the pump, but now it seems there is less water exiting then before, I wasn't aware of the function of the unloader valve but now that I have seen your video I feel if I remove the pump once again, this time attempting to remove and clean that valve I may have a better chance at success with it working. I am new to all of this but as a single mother & determined to figure things out I will learn all I can to be successful at being a DIYer. I will be purchasing all of the grease & polish you mentioned to reassemble everything again and attempting the unloader valve as well, do you have any suggestions as to what my problem may be for why I have no water exiting the pump when running aside from what I have mentioned above? I'm just hoping to troubleshoot my situation with a successful outcome. I greatly appreciate any and all feedback. Again thanks for this awesome video!

Great video 😊Blessings 💯 🤗 🙏

VERY HELPFUL , well done and thank you.

You have great patience as spent two hours trying to get those 3 valves out with no luck

Yep gear oil was ready for a change. Good job Jordan.

Excellent video. Thank you

Thanks for giving me some insight! While I don’t have a gas unit like this, I have several friends and family who have given me their pumps to take a look at for repair. For the time it’s going to take me to do this, the $99 special and line prefilters will help more than me charging them even $10 an hour….

Solid tutorial. Thx for posting this! Gave me some insight on one I've been fighting with.

Thank you so much to take the time to make this video. This one is the best and complete from all of the videos searched by me. I appreciate it!

like others have said. great little video.. good detail, nice pace, nice editing. will do my own pump soon and let u know! cheers

Thanks for the video. I was debating on buying a new pump head or repairing the existing one. I'm going to tackle the repair and save some $$$

Excellent tutorial 👌 thanks

Thank you fir the video it is explaning alot

Very good video the best i seen thank you👍

After tear down…. Should you be able to blow air through the discharge side? Meaning, I tried to blow air with my mouth where the wand hose connects and I can’t pass any air. Is that normal? I assume there is a check I am blowing against? Thanks

Great video keep it up

Great video. I guess the valves are standard / universal sizes for pumps ranging from 2000 to 3000 psi.

Just the video I've been looking for. I've searched for two days for this info. Now all I need to know is if this model can be bypassed and if so how. So it won't overheat when I let off the trigger. I know this video is 5 yrs old but if anyone can help chim in.

Thank you for making this how-to video. Very detailed and to the point. I have exactly the same model of the pump. What oil did you use for pump? any W90 synthetic gear oil or something else, please advise.

What kind of polish do you recommend? Great video I learned a lot.

Thanks for posting this. I think my pump may be causing the engine to stall, but not sure. Engine runs great with the pump detached. As soon as I re-attach the pump, start the engine, and pull the trigger... the engine stalls. I'm thinking maybe the pump is starting to seize and it's causing too much strain on the engine and stalls it.

Hi, what a great job with your time and patience in your instruction.I am a little confused as you stated one of the valves you had to hit with the rubber mallet to get it to move. I thought the movement came from the steel bearing and the spring. it seems the valve on the inside is brass and does not move. or are you saying it does?

I liked your video. How much gear oil did you add? I've been searching and have not found out the amount.

I inherited a fairly new Simpson 3Kpsi pump that has no pressure (Honda 190). Where did you get the parts? Is there a kit? I suspect it wasn't cared for properly. Replaced the carburetor $25. Don't forget to use Sta-bill in the gas!!

Did you use threadlock on all the fasteners? With all the vibration on these things I'd be worried about not knowing the proper torque for each and every bolt and nut.

Awesome video i really appreciate the detail!! I do have one question for you though: What is the 327 oil or grease you keep referring to. I googled it and i cant seem to figure out what it is. But i dont want to use the wrong lube and gunk everything up

I have annovi reverberi rmv2.5g30d and wondering if its worth trying to rebuild. It still looks to be in good condition just stopped pumping. A new one is close to $200. What would you charge if I ship you mine to rebuild??

Great video, bud. Can you (or anyone else watching) tell me .....when you say "calc"....is it safe to assume you mean "calcium"? And if the answer is yes, wouldn't straight white vinegar do a good job of dissolving all or most of the "hard mineral deposits"? Call me cheap (most of my friends and family DO); I'm just looking for an easy, 'accessible', solution to cleaning the guts of my pump. Question 2: Does having run my pump without a water supply connected for a minute or two likely to have trashed it beyond the scope of your video? Thanks for any info.

Did you replace all the check valves with new ones or just clean them up and reuse them?

what is 327?

7:43 Rem oil ?

I just rebuilt the exact same pump. No luck. Still no pressure
