Recently, the neighbor down the block placed their pressure washer on the curb for the weekly trash pickup.
I felt more than compelled to inquire about the pressure washer and see if it was really trash or treasure.
The neighbor said the machine wouldn't work and I was welcome to take it home. Enough said!!!
Although, the lady of the house gave me "the look" when I was carting it into the garage, I was determined to check it out.
Overall, the 6.0hp Briggs and Stratton engine ran well, but the old pump had seen better days. Ordered a new 2500psi AR pump and bolted up without any problems. Cleaned her up, changed the oil, plug, and added a touch of flat black paint for a finishing touch.
Worked like a charm on the ol' driveway and other home projects. Now the lady of the house gives me the "you da man" look....I'm the home repair hero now.
