The repair today was once again fuel-related....are you all getting sick and tired of hearing that? Well, I have to tell you that is 90% of our business!..If customers started draining their fuel when the equipment wasn't going to be in use fot more than several weeks our business may be veeerrrrrryyyyyyy slow.
This is really a throw away pressure washer, and by that I mean this....If you have to pick it up, change carburetor and oil and air filter, you are pretty much exceeding the cost of replacing it.
This pressure washer is probably in the $200-$300.00 range. The cost of the complete carburetor is $50.00 ( there is no rebuild kit available, you cant even take it apart to rebuild it). the air cleaner , fuel shut-off and spark plug and oil rounds out the parts at about $80-$90.....add in a few hours labor , depending on whose shop you bring it to...could be $40 - $80 per hour.......you have exceeded the cost of a new one.....
