My pressure washer has been doing less and less. Grandson (age 18) used it last to do a bunch of rabbit litter pans for my wife. Never complained about lack of pressure. But then, what does he know? Tried to use it the other day, about useless. Thought I may be in for a new pump, as engine is still going strong...
Checked the filter on the incoming water line - full of slimy grass clippings and green leaves. Still trying to figure out where that came from. (Have two grandkids, age 3 and 4.) So that might explain that. Have just cleaned filter a second time, and more of same, so they probably stuffed the hose. What I can"t figure is why I"m still getting stuff out of hose, as it is used daily to water animals.
Anyway, still not up to snuff. Changed out nozzle to a new one, same size... WOW! All kinds of pressure... Apparently the water had actually worn old one to point where there was a severe pressure drop...
