Nope as just looking at it looks old and knackered to me... 5000 psi my arse  ;D

It's only a Honda diesel 9 hp engine so what make/model size pump does it have ?
Flow rate (lpm) & true  working psi (bar) pressure is two of the most important thing you need to know when looking for a decent washer.

It's not a bargain but it's a good engine and if the pump is a decent make then it's ok, it's got a fitted hose reel ( how much hose on it?)

£500 is decent days work and you've got your money back, if you're  desperate for a machine I Would go have a look.

They stopped producing those engines about 10 years ago and parts are hard to get. You'd be better off with a yanmar diesel

Nothing wrong with it just old but the yanmar is still made and spares are easily available.

I have plate in my arm holding that together but all of the rest creaks and groans most of the time. I have VWF which I am in the process of claiming for my disability pension. I am also eligable to claim my old age pension being an ex miner with a short life expectancy.

Sorry to hear that bud. Maybe it's time to start take things a bit easy from now on?

I have told the long haired general to sort it out several times, I shall mention it again now . I'm having a week off next week , the first for 2 years. I'm not happy - I'd rather stay here and work like I did last year !
