any anti foaming oil ,you can use multi grade but it goes milky with minute air bubbles and gives the appearance of getting water in.most manufacturers recommend anti-foaming oil

Got gas?

It's the spark plug more than likely. If engine turns but won't stay running its more than likely spark plug. If that doesn't fix its the gas. Empty gas out get some fresh gas.

it is a 4 stroke motor so it just runs on neat unleaded fuel.
oil is in the engine and this should be 30w oil

Pump regular gas and no oil mix. Your engine has a dipstick which means its a four stroke engine.

The oil goes inside the motor. For summer use I recommend 30 weight non-detergent oil.

Change it out once a season *(Beginning would be preferred). Drain the gas out at the end of the season.

Hope this helps!

The pump uses SAE20 or SAE 30 non-detergent motor oil that fills up about half way
The engine uses 10-W30 motor oil that comes a bit more than half-way up dip stick.

Most pressure washers introduce soap into stream of water by the siphon method. In order for the system to siphon the pressure tip must be changed to one with large opening. Once the large tip is install, the fast moving low pressure water thru the hose and wand will draw-in soap. With the pressure tip installed soap will not be drawn-in. To spray soap and water under pressure use a large container (larger the better like clean 30 gallon trashcan) and fill with clean water and measure of liquid detergent. Use short water hose from with-in container and connect to pressure washer as normal. Keep checking water level so that washer will not run dry. Most pressue washers will **** water in quickly from container, however you can pre-fill the water hose with water to speed things up. Trailer mounted pressure washers use a very large container for water. You can estimate how log the pressure washer will take to use the water by checking the gallons per minute rating of your machine. Good luck
