is this diesel pressure washer any good?
« on: April 29, 2010, 08:40:32 pm »

I hired diesel pressure washer the other day and only used 7 litres of diesel. On my petrol machine i spend 20 litres if i work whole day.
Im now considering to buy new diesel pressure washer. Any suggestions which model?

Don't know about this model but I run Yanmar machines they're bombproof.

Gotta agree with the consumption issues with petrol machines, I used to use a Honda gx390 15hp, would do in 15-20 a day in petrol.

£6 or £7 now with the diesel, even cheaper if I used cherry.

Does the hours used warrant the extra needed to buy decent kit, I personally would go for Jap, German or Italian engines and swerve those churned out by beansprout scoffers and also go for a recognised named pump. A friend of mine has just skipped a similar washer as you cannot seem to get pump spares. Why is it £800 as apposed to about £3k for a Hatz/Yanmar interpump m/c

That model came up 1st on Google when i searched for diesel pressure washer. My budget around £1500-2000 possible more for good equipment

Diesel machine that i hired had Yanmar engine and Karcher pump. It was good using lance and turbo lance but not powerful enough for rotary cleaner
