Try and back flush the washer..Take spay nozzle off washer and back flush with hose...If any kind of sand or deposits get into the Pump it will hold pressure valve open not letting it build pressure.after back flushing hook back up washer and before you put spar nozzle back on or start washer turn water on and make sure all air is out of washer..hook spray nozzle back up and hold it open with washer still off.when you see that there is no more air coming out of washer start it and you should have pressure.Hope this helps you and have a great day!!

How do you adjust the pressure?

get larger nozzles, if you are using size 4 nozzles now ( looks right for 3 gpm at 2500 psi) then you would use size 4.5 for 2000 psi, size 5 for 1600 psi etc

Honda 160 homelite pressure washer 2700 psi no pressure

Water comes out the nozzle, but low pressure? ( more than when the motor is not running)
I would check the check valves and the unloader.
If the amount of water coming out the nozzle is the same when the motor is running or not running.
Either the key that connects the motor shaft to the pump shaft is sheared, or the pump is trash.
No water comes out the nozzle would indicate a clogged inlet filter or blockage at the gun valve or nozzle.

I have a 2600 Troy bilt pressure washer.When I start the pressure washer,no water comes out the nozzle and the nozzle is not clogged either.I took the nozzle/gun off and there still was'nt any wat

If when you take the High Pressure water hose off the pressure washer pump no water will come out they you may simple have the bypass valve stuck. You may need to just remove the outlet fitting and clean the bypass valve.
It would be helpful to know the model number of the pressure washer or the pump.

Will not pick up detergent

I am sure it will only spray soap at low pressure. Usually an adjustment on the regular nozzle. it snaps forward to set on low pressure

Water comes through nozzle, but no pressure. it is a john deere, with a honda engine.

The engine doesnt matter. Most pumps are DeVille Bliss. Get the model off the pump and go to their website for trouble shooting information.
