Adjust soap injector
If it connect to the outlet pipe/lance then it operates on SUCTION similar to blowing across the top of a beer bottle to make a noise. If thats the case it is a matter of blockage and ventilation of the soap bottle to allow air to enter as the soap is sucked out by the water flow.

What is an uploader
I think you mean an UN Loader this is a valve that redirects (bypasses) the pressureized water back into the intake when you release the trigger When it is not working the machine continues to build pressure and will bog down
hope this helps

most lawn mower shops can handle any repair on engine part of machine its the same engine thats on lawn mower , the pump well thats a bit more tricky , what i have done is remove it from engine and drain fluids and send it back to mfg for repair they send it back you install it back and put fluids back inside , whholla it works !!!
Smell of sewer in the house
Ensure all your additional rough in plumbing is capped, and toilets or sinks that are not used for long periods of time , sometimes p traps may dry up allowing sewer gasses to enter the home so use them once in a while or fill with water once in a while ,same with floor drains. If that isn't it check that you have them installed.
Fuel driping from bottom
Sounds like the float in the carb is stuck. Take the bowl off, and check to see that the float is moving freely. Also check to see that the needle valve seat is clean - use a qtip or small wooden dowel to clean the seat.
Pull start wont pull fully
Usually the rewind spring or spring anchor points are broken. The starter must be disassembled and the parts inspected. Remember the spring is under tension! [There are many different types of starters, and a manual is a good idea if you are not familiar with them.] If the starter is hard to pull, remove the starter and then try it. If the starter is ok off the engine, check the engine itself for a seized or oil-locked cylinder. Remove the plug and pull rope the motor, if it will now spin and oil blows out the plug hole- then gas from the carb is leaking into the sump; or the engine has been tipped for a long time
