    Thanks. I know nothing about these pumps, but pretty good at fixing things. Reckon mine needs a new repair kit. Took it apart yesterday, cleaned it, put back together, still no pressure. It's a yard sale pump, but engine is like new. I try to fix

    found this in an on-line manual for this pump:Special Note: Use only AR64545 for the XJ/SJ/BK/RMW Series pumps only: Do NOT changeoil. Use oil only to add if low. This oil is a specially formulated synthetic with special additivesfor the demands of the XJ, SJ, BK and RMW pump series. No other oil is factoryapproved for these pumps, and could result in pump failure.

      Hi Joe, did you eventually fix your issue? I might take out my unloader and see if it's causing any problems. I think the head is supposed to move back and forth. If not, then maybe I'll have to replace it. Not sure though, just basing that off of other unloader issues I've seen online.

    • @mot611
      @mot611 6 років тому +3

      The thing to do with the unloader is remove it from the machine. The unloader has a very stiff spring inside. You can't compress it by hand. You can put it in a vise to try it. Better yet, you can take it apart. Once the spring is removed, you can move the piston back and forth by hand. Clean all the components and re-assemble.

      @@mot611 I did this today. The spring was very clean with factory grease. I took it all the way apart and put a little 90w marine oil in it while moving the piston. It moves good. I reassembled everything then reinstalled it into the manifold as 1 piece. Don't know if it fixed my problem though. I ran out of after work time lol. The issue is my pressure washer feels and sounds like its building pressure but when I squeeze the trigger it pops off really hard pressure then just a small stream like the motor isn't running.

      @cjoakman7715 6 років тому +3

      I do it by removing the pump(since it's only 3 bolts), removing the plastic oil plug, draining out the old oil, then adding the new oil. The pump doesn't hold much oil. With the pump sitting level, just fill it till it starts to run out the drain hole, then put the drain plug back in and don't over tighten it. Or just check your manual or Google to find the exact amount of oil your pump takes and add it.

    My AR 22G24 -EZ-SX Makes plenty of pressure, but detergent pick up line will not pick up. I removed the chemical pick up nipple to see that there was no spring behind the bearing. Well at least no recognizable spring. There was a solid mass of grey gunk clogging the port. I sprayed it out but there is a dark grey plug remaining in the chem pick up port. I don't know if its a deteriorated seat or what, it is harder and darker than the stuff that came out first. Replacing the spring is not going to help if there is no opening between the chem pick up port and the discharge port. Anybody have any ideas?

      Thanks Jason! I think I had finally figured it out but it’s been some time since I looked at these after buying a small electric pressure washer as a “temporary” replacement (which so far seems permanent). I had learned either pump will fit my machine but as you stated, the hole on the mount gives you access to the drain plug. Since the engine to my pump doesn’t have a drain plug, it then becomes a matter of whether I wanted the hose attachments facing forward or towards the rear of the cart it’s on.

    Why do your details on these pumps rate the "Hours Of Service" at ONLY 50 Hours ?

      Yes, these pumps can be serviced or rebuild after this period.
      We test these pumps out at 100 hours, the manufacturer of the pressure washer lists them as 50 hours because the average homeowner will only use it for that long in a lifetime. If you are looking for a pump that is made to work many hours in a day you should use a commercial grade triple plunger pump.

      @usergvhhyu1223 6 років тому +4

      Love the cool-aid. Buy the pressure cleaner, pump rated even in a best case scenario to 100 hours. "Because the manufacturer expects that you would ONLY use it for that time....a blatant underestimation so you would buy again in three years or so". Meaning, for the typical homeowner use the pressure cleaner a few times and the pump would stop working. Thus, if you need a product that LASTS and it is actually RELIABLE then must purchase a commercial-rated product.

    • @mot611
      @mot611 6 років тому +2

      Yep. I agree with BOTH of you. I'm not "mad" about it though. I buy commercial product for ALL my tools. Makita vs Ryobi, Stihl vs Echo.Also, 100 hours winds up being a lot of time. If I power-wash my house and my deck, that's like 24 hours. Anything else I do, will be a :15 min job here and there. So, we're saying I have to rebuild my pump for $30 every 4 or 5 years. No big deal.Additionally, THIS machine is really too small to do decks and houses. It just doesn't have the volume and therefore takes way to long. Therefore, I should really be RENTING a commercial machine, which has the power/volume to get the job done properly. This would push the service life WAY out there.This machine is designed for small jobs like patio furniture and car rims etc.

    Well... I just buy a new one for $70 because I cannot find the parts and why waste time doing all that.
    I used to repair things, now I am like the shops.
    My time is better spent just replacing a unit instead of a repair and pray.

    Just make a video stating these pumps are garbage! After all it is true! I have Troy-built with a Honda GCV160 CC Engine. The Honda part is great the rest is absolutely Garbage. I've used Briggs & Stratton pump saver after every use and store in a heated garage when winter comes.

      Yes I have to agree those pumps are just a bloody money pit

      Had scores of these set ups from customers needing repair, honda gcv160 engines running fine, cheap pumps like this go bad, tell them Im not warranty a aftermarket amazon special and even then, $70 for a new cheap China pump, $35 hour minimum and then it gets dumped on me. Your better off spending $600 or so for an honda GX series with triplex pump that will pay for itself in 5-10 years

    what a misleading title. Not a word about "maintenance". How often to change oil? How much oil to add?

    Does a replacement pump come with the proper amount of oil in it
