Sounds like the pump has an issue check for restrictions in the hose as well as the filters look for any oil leak at the pump itself

    Not the pump. Replaced it and it still bogs down. It starts really easy--1st pull, but under a load it chokes and dies.

SOURCE: Honda Pressure Washer HP 5 not starting

You can try spraying some carburetor cleaner into the carb. If it starts for a minute, your carburetor need cleaning. When you added new gas did you remove the old gas first? Is the air filter clean?

SOURCE: My 13 hp honda power washer has a miss when it's

Most likely fuel / plug. Easy to check. While running unloaded and miss-firing, try applying the choke just a little to increase fuel mixture (make run slightly rich), if clears may need carb kit. If it gets worse with slight choke running rich or plug faulty. Before you change parts try using premium fuel. If runs better problem solved.

I have a 1985 Honda VT500 Shadow. It bogs down at about 5500 rpm. I changed the 4 spark plugs, checked the air filter, took off the carbs and blew out the bowls, looked clean. Put back together and

there are many air channels in the carbs, witch can be dirty, clean them with very thin wire, and first bled out the gas, check the 2 diaphragms in the carbs

My 580.752000 pressure washer now starts and immediately shuts down. It is as if it is full choked and stops due to over rich. Sooty spark plug and muffler replaced. Also new carb installed. Still problem...

This seems to be an electrical problem, replace your spark plug, & lead. make sure your electricals are all OK.
Check your "Points" also check, your magneto too... Ensure you have a good healthy spark.
many problems are caused by bad electrics,and mistaken for all sorts of problems, this all needs to be checked thoroughly.
Also check your air filter too.

Engine will not run but a few minutes at a time

Check your spark plugs, see if they are failing, if they are then your motor is getting to hot. meaning that you either have the fuel mixture set to high or the setting on the spark plugs are not correct causing you to burn hot.

Honda GX340 11 Hp ..Runs fine until it gets hot , Cuts off and

FIRST...check the engine oil level. Some Honda engines have an oil sensor that shuts off the spark if the oil is low. This would also explain it shutting down when it get hot. Check the manual to see how to tell if the oil level is correct. Also, the oil should be brown and transparent, not black. It may need changing. Post again if this doesn't help :-)
