Hi, if the gun section is just leaking, then you can replace the washers inside; otherwise, its a replacement, which is not cheap unfortunately; but most guns should fit your machine.

This issue is caused by defective unloader or debris trapped in spray nozzle or faulty gun. Easy to check. Check system with-out spray nozzle. The engine should not labor at all when you depress trigger without nozzle. If it labors/ dies faulty gun, if no labor, install new or clean nozzle (check for correct gpm for machine) and retest. If ok, you are done, if engine labors or dies, reduce pressure by turning pressure knob as required. If reducing pressure has no effect, most likely faulty unloader. Good luck

Whar has happened is that your unloader / bypass valve is sticking. This is due to minor corrosion and having water in the unit over the winter. Most of the time they will sanp out it if you do the following:

Add 3 - 4 oz of oil into the water supply connection and briefly and I mean very briefly switch on the unit then right back off. Add more oil to the water supply connection and then let it sit overnight.

Then next day turn the unit on briefly and let it sit another 30 minutes. After this you connect all hoses making sure to purge the air our of the supply hose BEFORE you connect the to the unit. Then once you turn the unit on rapidly trim cycle the wand trigger. Your goal here is to cause a water hammer of the unloader / bypass valve to get the spring and cupped seal to move in the housing. Pause briefly and see if pressure builds then fan the wand trigger again. This can take a few minutes to get it to work but the routine of pausing waiting momentarily and rapidly tripping the wand trigger is what should get the unit going again.

If this does not work you will have to take the unit apart dis-assemble the unloader / bypass vavle on the output side of the pump and remove the corrosion on the spring and the housing.


Once your done cleaning up the bypass unloader valve before you put it back in the housing place a liberal amount of Lubriplate #105 White Grease on the spring and inside the housing on the mating surfaces. (#105 white grease is available at any Auto Parts store. It is in a 3 - 5 oz plastic tube)

Re-assemble the unloader / bypass valve an it should work like a champ.

If you ran the pump without any available water, then you may have to return. There must be water pressure at pump at "all" times.

I would think it is calcium or iron buildup in the line. Get some small wire and stick it in the end to see if you can clean and or some CLR to help dissolve. Then give it another go. let us know

the triger has a small ball bearing and a spring in it,,,strip out the triger
dont loose the bits and clean then grease it using water proof grease so its free to slide then the jobs a good un? get yourself a drink and go back to power washing ,,but this time it stops when you tell it to?

Well, you may be out of luck with Coleman's customer service. They have gone out of business, from what I understand. I have a pressure washer just like that one. You may be able to find one on ebay, or one online that someone has scanned.
