QuestionI have a honda pressure washer with a GC160 four stroke engine. The engine will crank easy but won't run evenly. The engine will almost shut down when I pull the trigger to pressure wash. The inlet screen is clean, the air filter is clean and the plug looks good. the pressure washer is fairly new--three years old. Seems like it ain't gettin enough gas? What do you think?
AnswerHi Glen
Sorry for the delay, vacation -
1- Replace the plug, regardless of how it looks
2- Drain and flush the tank, put in all fresh gas.
3- Run some pressure washer pump lube through the system to make sure the unloader valve isn't sticking.
Do this and lemme know how it goes.
