Pressure Washer Troubleshooting

[LoRollinLS]

Hello all,

I am having some issues with my pressure washer losing pressure. Please watch my video and let me know if you have any ideas as to what might be the problem. Thanks!

Well, if the addition of one part causes the problem then obviously that part is the problem. I'd guess it's clogged with lime scale or other debris. If you can't disassemble it and remove whatever is inside you will have to replace it.

Hadn't thought of lime scale. Thanks!

Lime scale doesn't seem to be the problem. Anyone else got any ideas that may help?

Partial blockage does appear to be the problem. Soak that part in some vinegar overnight then blow backwards with an air hose. Taking it apart would be ideal to see what is going on in there.

Good idea, I'll try soaking it. Once I get some time, I will disassemble it and see if there is any buildup inside. Thanks for the reply!
