FYI I learned the hard way why not to use gasoline with ethanol. My pressure washer powered by a Honda small engine wouldn't start because the carburetor was all gummed up and beyond repair. Once I found the model number and serial number I searched the internet for replacement parts. Prices varied significantly as well as parts that were engine specific. In order to take the guess work out of the equation I found Honda's Engine Parts website. peparts.honda.com/engines#/serial I was easily able to look up parts for my specific engine and serial number. It was great! Diagrams of each component of the engine were clearly labeled with prices below. IMO prices were better than anything I was able to find on the internet plus I knew it was the correct part(s). Honda should clearly state on their engines to use ETHANOL free gas only.
Thanks that’s a good tip! And funny you mention the label, I just bought a new Honda powered lawn mower, and it DOES have a label stating no E85 on it! Funny hey!
What a great video
Informative funny and most of true to life
Great job

I have a Honda motor pressure washer. Has been sitting for 2-3 yrs and still has gas. Haven’t touched it yet. What should I check out first?
05tech if it was running when u put it away, and the gas was left in the carborator, i would say the carb is gummed up. Will need to be cleaned out
