I've watched this video multiple times and share it to a Facebook pressure washing group religiously to guys having problems with their burners. Perfectly explained, visuals are perfect. Top notch sir!
My burner kicks on for 2 seconds then shuts off. Replaced the fuel pump and things didn't improve. When it engages you can see the fuel shut off magnetize then when it's shuts off you can see the solenoid release. Still troubleshooting but any input would be great
Great information, my machine is saturating the insulation with diesel, it is smoking extremely bad, I am under the impression that the fuel is not getting burned. this video was so helpful. thank you!!!
I have the same problem. Did you figure out the problem? My coils were saturated and I had to take it all out, clean it, replace the insulation and also replace tip. Yet, it still blows diesel fuel into my coils and soaks them. Right now I don't use the heat but I'm thinking I need to replace my my ignitor
+Eddie Regory it almost sounds like your tip where the diesel comes out may be worn, hole to big, or dirty and your spray is going everywhere kinda sputtering.
Hi Sr... I have a north star water heater.... as in your video fire should go off once the trigger is realesed , but in my case it does not ,,,, stay on ..... what will you recommend .... thanks
Great video, you forgot to mention the plastic coupling between the Burner motor and fuel pump, a broken worn slipping coupling can stop the fuel pump from running.
Hi I’m looking for a burner for hx series pressure washer /steam cleaner any suggestions where to buy one or do you know any place do I can buy one thanks and your videos are great by the way hope I hear from you soon great life for you and your family
Great job, exactly what i was looking for. Powerline sold me a polished turd. my machine has operated on ONLY 5 jobs! I not only have oil spitting from the head on the right side of the motor,but the 12 volt burner stopped making heat in the middle of a my last job. I haven't done any testing yet, but i can now with your video as a reference. Thank You. (I'm thinking it might be the pressure switch)
Wondering if you can help with something. I have the hot box from northern tool. It has a Beckett oil burner that has a turn dial thermostat and a flow switch on it. I would like to eliminate the flow switch and replace the dial thermostat with a digital one, any thoughts?
I have a landa pgdc 4000 burner will not shut down when I let off the trigger. im sure I can figure it out but I would like your input you are knowledgeable
Am I not correct but isn’t there a 4th option as well? Isn’t there a pressure switch which tells the unit to fire once the trigger is pulled? Often times the problem is the pressure switch which gets stuck either causing the burner not to fire or fire and not be able to turn off
I acquired a excell model 1204 washer with a burner just like the one in this video. Can anyone identify the manufacturer so I can find a wiring diagram? I am unable to find any information on this model, Thanks
I have a commercial pressure washer k’archer 3500 psi that won’t charge the battery. I been told it could be the starter or perhaps the coil. Do you have any suggestions,it is highly appreciated.
Look up Steven Lavimonier on RUclips. He has a plumbing service channel where he shows real time service of residential oil burners, how to clean electrodes and set them. I've learned a ton by watching him. Plus, he's from just South of Boston near Cape Cod and he's a pisser to listen to.
I got diesel running out the bottom of my boiler. I have a Easy Kleen pressure that is fairly new it makes small amount of smoke out the stack then I noticed I seen a bunch of diesel fuel leaking out the bottom. Any idea 🤷 ?
Oh Boy!! Your burner is not igniting. And it is dumping diesel into the chamber. When it does ignite be ready because it will shoot flame out of the burner. My recommendation is take back to your distributor so they can work on it to get it repaired. There a many things that can cause this problem.
Thank you for make such a great video!!! Me an my dad work on one like this all day I think now I know the problem. I think the Solenoid is bad. I wish I can find a wiring diagram because dad had them unhook an not sure if he wired back right.
What's the 4th red wire for in a 120 volt generator type setup. Does that need voltage to ignite. I'm trying to test out the machine by. Bypassing the generator. I can get the blower to spin and fuel is pumping but what does the red wire need ?
I just ordered my first hot box it's a Pressure Pro hot box for 4000psi 4gpm if anything breaks on it where do I go to get replacement parts for it????? infact I would like to order parts and have them on hand incase something happens on a job
@@Powerwash ok thank you very much. ordered it from the pressure washer store in Nashville Tennessee, cant wait to get it been saving up to get it. but thank you for getting back to me
i have an heated presure washer and it works for a good 10minutes minute and then shut off i by pass the temp sensor and still those the same thing i do see sparks on the transformer????
So if I'm not getting oil to the burner port. What are the main causes? Replaced filter, replaced pump and doing same thing. At first it was only getting hot when I turned the throttle down to turtle on my washer. Now the burner won't light at all. I'm getting air and sparc. No fuel to the burner but fuel in bleeder valve.
Same here. I'm getting a fuel in my return line and if I kink it off I build pressure on my gauge but still doesn't get fuel at the supply for the burner
Hi can you advise me at all please? My burner is not getting no fuel exiting the pump, it's returning back to the fuel tank ok so I k ow it's pumping it's just not switching over and going to the injector, I have changed the solenoid on he pump but still no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Dean
awesome video but CAN SOMEONE HELP ME?! my burner fan just budges when the switch is turned on but doesn't have any spin. The fuel pump is not sucking in fuel either. Does the fuel pump work in conjunction with the fan for it to work? It sounds like I need a new fuel pump.
Thanks. I have one more question... when the burner is running I noticed there is way too much diesel fuel inside my coil system, so I replaced the tip. I then had to take out the whole coil system, clean off the diesel from the coils and reinstall with new insulation. when testing it again, the coils inside my burner is becoming saturated with diesel fuel again. Do you think that I'm not getting a spark or fire so therefore it's not burning the fuel? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
What if you have fuel spraying out of the jet whether you are on the trigger or not, My burner just started this and has completly soaked all of the insulation. The solinoid is getting power but does not recirculate the fuel back to the tank, it just constantly sprays fuel out of the jet
I wish you had done the easy things first! My system had the overload breaker popped out so why do I need all the info about fuel flow and igniters before you get to telling that the pump is driven off the blower motor and can be damaged by water in the fuel? You only get to reasons your blower motor won't run after all the other systems.
10 years later and still helping people.
Yes Sir!!!
One of the best troubleshooting videos I have seen. Keep up the good work.
I've watched this video multiple times and share it to a Facebook pressure washing group religiously to guys having problems with their burners.
Perfectly explained, visuals are perfect.
Top notch sir!
Whats the group called? I just got myself an used landa pgh w that doesn't heat, looking to learn more about heated washers in general
I have a hotsy, no fuel at the small fuel transfer line. He says troubleshoot up the line what does that mean?
@@zodglubby there should be a fuel bleeder screw, you may have air in your line if its not getting fuel.
If not likely the pump is shot
@@daftnord4957 sorry man, didn't see this till now.

sounds like voltage issue

+Eddie Regory it almost sounds like your tip where the diesel comes out may be worn, hole to big, or dirty and your spray is going everywhere kinda sputtering.
Anyone know what would cause the insulation to deteriorate on my 12v diesel burner tank?
Fuel delivery issue. Check fuel delivery nozzle and output of fuel pump. One or the other is causing "over" delivery of fuel.

Hi I’m looking for a burner for hx series pressure washer /steam cleaner any suggestions where to buy one or do you know any place do I can buy one thanks and your videos are great by the way hope I hear from you soon great life for you and your family
That would be a Hydro Tek. Check out there website they have several distributors that should be able to get you what you need.
What should the temp be on a hot water pressure washer just a range? Also any guages to check temperatures
normally temps are 150 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit

I have a landa pgdc 4000 burner will not shut down when I let off the trigger. im sure I can figure it out but I would like your input you are knowledgeable
Can u explaine what to do if ur fuel line to gun is not sending fuel to gun thank u
Continue fuel flow by nozzle. When burner turn off. What would be the problem
Great job
Once in a while my becket burner on my powerwasher will rumble any idears
It likely not firing and you get a build up of fuel in the burner. Then it ignites and cause a hard burn hence the rumble
How exactly does pulling the trigger on the pressure wand activate the burner, thanks for the very clear and informative video!
It triggers a microswitch which then completes the circuit for the burner to ignite.
Well say if all that works and coil ain’t magnetizing ? What gives coil the power
Excellent Video!! No longer a "mystery".

I just replaced my Fuel Pump on the Burner and the blower fan will not turn. It worked one day and nothing today. What would be the problem
First start by checking the power
God bless you dude. This video is so much information that i need and information that makes sense.
Thank you for make such a great video!!! Me an my dad work on one like this all day I think now I know the problem. I think the Solenoid is bad. I wish I can find a wiring diagram because dad had them unhook an not sure if he wired back right.
Great video, thanks guys for some solid troubleshooting information.
No flame sensor (LDR / Photocell) for shutting off the fuel valve when no flame is detected ?
photocell is more common on the 12 volt systems. This is a 110 volt. Good observation

Hii my burner just blowing fire continuously.can you help me ?
So I have one that won't stay lit it will ignite but then starts blowing white smoke
reduce the air intake. White smoke is an indication of too much air flow
Hi can you advise me at all please?
My burner is not getting no fuel exiting the pump, it's returning back to the fuel tank ok so I k ow it's pumping it's just not switching over and going to the injector, I have changed the solenoid on he pump but still no luck. Any help would be appreciated.
Dean
are you getting power to the solenoid?
Anyone know what would cause the insulation to deteriorate on my 12v diesel burner tank?
Didn’t see the part about what to check when the burner doesn’t shut off during trigger release?
Thank you ser
Extremely informative
Glad you think so!
Great video.... Just one thing missing..... Exhaust.... If your coil is full of soot due to running rich your flame will not burn 🔥
awesome video but CAN SOMEONE HELP ME?! my burner fan just budges when the switch is turned on but doesn't have any spin. The fuel pump is not sucking in fuel either. Does the fuel pump work in conjunction with the fan for it to work? It sounds like I need a new fuel pump.
give it a spin with your hand after you diconect the power it may just be stuck, and yes the burner motor turns the fuel pump.
Thanks. I have one more question... when the burner is running I noticed there is way too much diesel fuel inside my coil system, so I replaced the tip.

My Hotzy backfires when burner is turned on. Anyone know why ? It sounds like a gun going off and black spoke comes out. It’s only 2 tears old.
Very well done!
I have problem whit oil pump burner the problem is the Disel no pass
Anyone know what would cause the insulation to deteriorate on my 12v diesel burner tank?
Did you figure it out ?
Mine has started to turn to soot
This is a great 👍 video #littlespressurewashingservice

What if you have fuel spraying out of the jet whether you are on the trigger or not, My burner just started this and has completly soaked all of the insulation. The solinoid is getting power but does not recirculate the fuel back to the tank, it just constantly sprays fuel out of the jet
Either the solenoid is bad or the switch turning it on and off is bad.
Great video. I took notes. Great explaination
Thanks for the energy
Great video thanks.
You can trust a southern old gentleman with an engine or contraption on a cart to easily show you. 😂

HELP! fuel pump is working, fuel is coming out of bleed valve, but no fuel coming out of transfer line
Same problem. Did you figure it out?
@Seth Clemons did you figure it out?
@Seth Clemons well hell. I'm about to try that. Just got a new pump and still the same issue but it has the grey one as well. Old one had the green.
@Seth Clemons nope. Think the original solenoid is bad. Only spitting fuel and only with throttle turned all the way down
@Seth Clemons lol. I'm dont with it for now. Ordered a new solenoid. Hopefully works. Pretty frustrating stuff.
Simple !

This is perfect
No such thing as a POWER washer, it's a PRESSURE washer. 2500PSI OF PRESSURE NOT POWER!
matthew thomazin yes there is. Power wash is hot water. Pressure wash is cold water.
Nice one Rick!
matthew thomazin technically a power washer is a high pressure washer....around 40000 psi
Thank you
