I am looking at buying the following 2006 Landa PG4-3500 PSI washer Used 283 hours, 13 HP Honda GX-390 3.8GPM, pump 1300RPM Comes w/ wand, hose,& 4 tips What would this washer be worth?

Assuming that the engine has not been taken apart and timing is set correctly. Have seen this often. Usually valve adjustment. Adjust valves as per manual so that compression release is working. If compression release is not working after adjustment check for faulty cam.

There are a couple of things that can cause this problem. The first thing to check is if you are loosing spark. Dying after it gets hot sounds like to stater is failing in the engine. If you loose spark this is more than likely the issue. If you are not loosing spark you need to check the fuel system. Dying after 20 seconds it could also be a plugged main jet in the carb. Another common issue on Honda engines is a faulty vent on the gas caps for engines sold from around 2008 - late 2010. If your gas cap is only about 3/8" thick this is very likely to be your issue. Try running the engine without the gas cap on to see if it still dies. If not that is your problem.

The numbers you have listed are for the engine, Honda doesn't actually make pressure washers but makes the engines. If you are looking for the manual on the pressure washer itself you are going to have to find some other numbers that should be listed on the frame of the machine.

The problem you are describing lies in the engine. In most cases this can be cleared up by doing a tune up. In the meantime you can try choking the engine slightly and see if that keeps it running under pressure. This will usually solve the problem with the smaller GC and GX series Honda engines until you can do the general maintenance.

It will depend on the pump that you have but the most common versions will be the 13HP PC4-35324 which is a direct drive unit or a PG4-35324 which is a belt drive unit. In both cases the machine would be 4GPM at 3500PSI.

remove brass fitting from pump and soak in lime-a-way for 24 hours

Were I to pick from one of those three, I would pick the Landa. The most reliable pumps are Hotsy and since Karcher bought Landa and Hotsy, those three brands now have Hotsy pumps, though it doesn't say it on the machines.

I believe it is either one but if you are not sure, stick a screw driver in an see if it comes out with oil on it. Does one not have an oil level stick attached to the cap?

Can anyone Solve this? My simoniz S2500 gas powered pressure washer has low pressure coming right from the outlet. It used to be high pressure until now.. I think it has something to do with the pump and if so, is there anything I can do to repair this problem? The screen is good; water comes out of the hose good, wand is ok......Just that lower pressure is at the wand even at high settings....It comes in a form of a spray in both modes......

1999 campbell hausfield 1800 psi--2.2gpm. weak pressure at the nozzle. water sprays out, but with the pressure of a garden hose.
