I took the hose apart and blew in it. No air came out of the other end
I was gonna say either the relief valve or a clogged hose/spray gun.

BTW,I never knew they made such a thing till my pump went south because of electrolysis.



Almost every pressure washer I've ever dealt with had a good running engine but a fricked up pump.

It basically looks like a regular higher quality pump

Here is the most similar one I could find. That one is obviously standing up, but if you rotated the right side clockwise 90°, it would be damn close




It has a Honda GX200 engine, which I have used on a bunch of other random stuff, and they seem to hold up. Motor is running, but carb could use a minor cleaning

Just pulled one off my Honda Mower and put a Briggs from my broken pressure washer on it.

I have one on a homemade go devil right now.

The new eco friendly Honda motors flat out suck arse. I hate them, and they are 3x as loud as a regular one. Never had a Honda engine be such a PITA. It is one of the GC series with a green/black cover
