Finally!! Someone who explains how to prime the pump!!

[@t.c.9078]

Amazing video

[@josephshields4428]

Thanks for the video. Some good tips in here

[@vernsquash8883]

I was just gifted a Honda 3000psi Simpson with no manual, hence CZcams.
Suggest using NON-ETHONOL gasoline for ALL off-road engines. Clear 87 unleaded will work better for most engines,
including 4-stroke marine and ATV engines. Here in Oregon it costs only about 25-30 cents more than the 10% ETH-unleaded.
You might also add the oil type for those who don't have manuals. Guessing, it is probably 10-30, but I will check the manual later.
Drain the gas and add antifreeze to the pump before putting away for the winter.
Thanks.

Very helpful.

Thanks bro, earned you a sub

You can use a flexible cable twist tie to tie the handle into the on position so no need for an extra person

[@russvandine5841]

mine came from the factory with a defect. simpson wont answer phone. rings for a short time and then goes dead.

[@harisyoung4110]

Luckily i go with dewalt.. same maker and design but their customer service and warranty are amazing.. my carburettor was clogged after couple months, i call them to inform that, they instead send me a brand new carb to install myself without even need to return my unit to them.

[@raymondfitzgerald521]

Is it 2 stroke oil?

[@MeatPez]

The one and only thing I wanted to know I still can’t find, what does the black adjuster knob that sits by the pump do?

[@jeffreybills2220]

Turn your pressure up and down

[@gman99ful]

I’ve found that on these exact models it doesn’t turn up or down. Simpson said so themselves

[@LordGandor3]

Turn knob to the right for max pressure & left for low. Is the I11uminati planning the next 9-11 for the war of Revelation in the Middle East ? The next Super Bowl is Feb 11 at A11egiant Stadium in the city of infidels at 3333 A11en Davis Way Las Vegas NV zip CODE 8 911 8. Will "America's Team" the DA11AS Cowboys win their 6th scripted SB to complete the 666 trifecta with the Steelers & Patriots or will the 49ers. M

If i want less pressure for a specific job, can i run this engine at lower rpm ?

[@jesusvalencia9726]

I just bought a new Simpson Powershot 4,000 3.5GPM and you can lower the pressure on it

[@carlosvalle8694]

Is it bad to leave it idling and not use it

[@rogerzindler8144]

Yes. Common rule is to not let it run for more than 30 seconds without pulling the trigger on wand. The pump needs the cold water coming in to keep it cool. Leaving it run for too long without use can burn your pump seals up.

[@rolandthethompsongunner64]

Why two dipsticks on the engine?

[@richardf3760]

why two oil ports

[@mbrianperry1]

Honda is garbage. Give their customer service a call and see how they treat you and you will see what I mean. I have been working on small engines for years and they are not very pleasant to deal with from a customer's or a warranty dealer's point of view.

[@harisyoung4110]

Is it only apply for simpson or all other maker that use honda gx engjnes such as dewalt ? in the past , my waranty claim with dewalt not have any problem, they just replace whatever the problem.

[@mbrianperry1]

@@harisyoung4110 The last Simpson warranty I had experience with took over three months to get them to pay out and cover the water pump that went bad on a 4-month-old Simpson pressure washer.

[@anthonylucarelli5720]

Horrible

[@loveasmr686]

This is a pressure washer not a power washer I hate having to correct people

[@dragosdiaconu629]

Then get a life 😂
