Fix Power Washer no start for $75... Repaired like new!
For a while our power washer was hard to start and would often surge or rev up while using it. Sometimes it was locking up on my wife because of the pressure and we would need to unhook everything and reattach to get it to work. Finally it just quit and couldn't get it started again. Well after some searching and troubleshooting I finally got it running again. The broken governor explains the revving and surging real fast and the camshaft getting out of time was probably the culprit for the eventual fail to start. But as I like to say get out there and do it yourself and save some money and learn something new. This was a fun project and rewarding when it kicks on and your wife is SUPER happy! Not to mention an equivalent power washer today is running about $399.

My gear:
I use the Audio Technica AT2020 XLR because I wanted to be able to record music occasionally. If you do not need that then you could just go straight for the USB version and wouldn’t need the phantom power or extra cables. The external recorder is a must when using a cell phone and will help with audio sync when editing.
