I was hoping you’d show the purpose of the Soap container mounted on the front. I just borrowed my son’s pressure washer (this identical model) and was trying to figure out what that soap container was for and/or how to use it. I’d assumed you’d put liquid soap in that container and the soap would get mixed with the water as you sprayed; however, as the container doesn’t have any tubing going to it any transfer of the soap into the water appears it would have to be via magic.
Just wanted to say thank you for your videos. Been learning alot from them. I just picked up this pressure washer at walmart in Pennsylvania on clearance for $210, and I found out afterwards that another walmart had it for $150 because it was sitting in their store longer! Oh well still got a good deal. I would like to get a smaller trigger sprayer, and a decent foam cannon that doesnt cost a ton of money and works well. Keep putting out the great videos!
Mr. Goody, previous service man screwed-up all the connections and spring locations. Could you please take a picture with your airfilter case off so I can copy off yours? TIA
Thank you for efforting this. I recentently bought this PW. It does not fit either of my foam guns. One is way to large and the seconed the notch is far enough from the end it will not latch. Thank you
Nice video of what appears to be a good pressure washer. Side note........I have concerns about the environmental issues related to what appears to be an excessive amount of sudsing soap.........what do the fish an other aquatic flora and fauna think about what is being flushed in to their world. Some cities/municipalities ban this practice. Just saying.....what goes around comes around..
Can you tell me how to change a spark plug on this thing? Instructions just give a pic of the spark plug, and says when to check it.. not where it is, or how to remove it!
Thank you for this video..i just picked up this exact washer..why do you not use the soap tank on the machine?i ordered a cannon just because you said you don't use the soap tank..
i bought mine at wally world... it was marked down to $225.00..they sat by the automotive register,kinda in way..i asked mgr if he'd consider selling with more of a mark down?i had been figuring percents .told him 25%..i walked out the door with it..i/m excited use it.
Great video. Thanks! I am very new to detailing. I have been reading things saying “Don’t attempt to wash a car with a pressure washer with 3000+ psi”....... is that accurate? Or is it ok with this unit? Thanks again for your video’s and advice!
Joel Marchello not really. As long as you adjust the settings and don’t go to close to your vehicle with it you will be fine. I’ve seen people use higher psi on there vehicles then 3100.
So after almost two years since posting this, how would you rate this machine? I have an opportunity to buy one NIB for $150 but I don’t want something that will fall apart after a few uses.
3yrs later but we have a 3200 version and it’s lasted for years with the same old oil, only thing is that the electric start doesn’t work but it starts right up with 2-4 pulls
GREAT VIDEO SIR, I have the Ryobi 2700 PSI 2.7 GPM and man, I freakin love that washer!!!!!!!!!! Keep the great info coming sir.
Mickey !!! Thats a good unit! Shine On!!
Nice unit Brian. Come spring time, Costco will be selling a similar unit with an electric start on it. But, this unit you showed fired right up.
Grab it when you can! As long as this starts with one or two pulls... Iam satisfied 👍🏻
Those have a Subaru engine. Not like the 1 shown.
CONGRATS! You hit 4000 Subs this weekend!
Thanks! We are just warming up! 😁👍🏻
@@apexdetail85 lol 84k plus subs now😎

Does it still work good?
@@shqrds8772 yes it has been great. It's stored for the winter now.
Hi can you please provide a link for the soap you used here? And also the soap cannon attachment. Thanks.
3200 PSI for $169 today.
Powerstroke, electric start.
Battery and charger.
Gonna definately buy one 😉😉👍🏻👍🏻
It is performing beyond expectations ....so far.
What do you use after the first use of oil they supply?? Is it a synthetic oil or anything special?? Or just normal part store oil??
You can use normal 30 weight oil. Bought one last week and love it so far.
Yes...and I add High Tach for stability.
Quick question … on that power washer. I can just pour the contents into the soap tank
Decent price...great video!!
It is a great price JB
Hi, Great video, I got one just like it, what type of oil do you recommend.

Hi I see that you posted this video 5years ago or above that time
Can you tell me how did it holding on ?
We want to buy it
Cual es la que prende con boton en vez de alar la soga
Can you tell me how to change a spark plug on this thing? Instructions just give a pic of the spark plug, and says when to check it.. not where it is, or how to remove it!
It says before use, fill to upper portion of the hatched area on the dipstick with provided oil means?
What is a proper break in period for the engine. I just bought one too
How long do you leave the soap on your car and do you have to scrub with a mitt before rinsing? Great video, thank you.
10 minutes if indoors...4-6 min in the sun. just rinse. then continue with contact wash.
Do you put only gas or you put a little bottle in the gas and mix it ?
Where did you purchase it for the price you mentioned at $240.00 in the video and have you used the surface cleaner with it?
3200 powerstroke for $169 with electric start. Battery and charger. On clearance today.
Check review on Amazon, problems getting warranty work done. Design has changed, electric start, different motor, higher price, etc.
Black Max 3100 replaced this model. They’re really identical tho.
Thank you for this video..i just picked up this exact washer..why do you not use the soap tank on the machine?i ordered a cannon just because you said you don't use the soap tank..
Still working like a charm for me.
i bought mine at wally world... it was marked down to $225.00..they sat by the automotive register,kinda in way..i asked mgr if he'd consider selling with more of a mark down?i had been figuring percents .told him 25%..i walked out the door with it..i/m excited use it.
RICHARD PITANG, I like your video and will like to know where did you bought this power stroke at $249.00 as you said. Thanks
How long does the gas last?
OK it's almost 4 months, what's the verdict on this pressure washer?
Does NOT miss a beat!!!. I like mine. Starts easy when hot or cold.
Apex Detail I just bought one and the first turn on the washer shakes a LOT is that normal?’and the exhaust gets really hot
Is it normal gasoline or you prepared something different?
What gas you got because I got a “SEF” small engine fuel, 4 cycle fuel contains no oil. Can I use that in my power stroke 3100 psi?
What type of gas I'm supposed to use for my 3001 psi
3100 psi
Great video. Thanks!

I put 10 30 synthetic in mine will it hurt it?
Dog nose @4:37 Awww so cute!
Not difficult to find, Our local Walmart has them.
This thing gets used hard...doesnt miss a beat.
Is it 3/8ths or 1/4?
How's this unit holding up so far?
On sale at woot for 219.99. may 4 2019
How much does the whole unit weigh???
What size Foam Cannon fits this pressure washer? Is it 1/4?
The MTM high pressure is bestwww.obsessedgarage.com/products/mtm-high-pressure-spray-gun
Mine won’t start
Must be made by same company that makes excell pressure washers. Looks near identical, slightly less power.
Que tipo de aceite utiliza ?
la maquina viene con una botella de aceite para echarle
I just buy a new one,for some reason it won't start
What foam cannon are you using?
Which soap are you using? Link
absolute junk
just now smashed the worthless handle that leaked like a broke dam. these last for about one season if youre lucky.
Seems crap for the concrete
🤔💱
