Troubleshooting your Fimco gas pressure washer when it produces weak spray
An insufficient water supply can cause low pressure at the nozzle. Check the water pressure at the source and the flow connected to the inlet of the pressure washer. Check the inlet screen for a clog that could be blocking inlet water flow.
Check whether a low-pressure spray tip is installed on the wand; if so, install a different nozzle. A problem with the wand or pressure hose can also cause low nozzle pressure. Clean or replace the wand if necessary. Replace the pressure hose if it's clogged.
A pump failure can cause low nozzle pressure. Replace the pump check valves or replace the entire pump if it doesn't build up adequate spray pressure. A stuck unloader valve can also cause low pressure at the nozzle. Replace the unloader valve if it sticks open and constantly recirculates water back to the pump inlet.
What causes a Fimco gas pressure washer to spray too hard
A failed unloader valve can cause high pressure at the nozzle. The unloader valve recirculates water to the pump inlet when the pump is running but the spray wand isn't in use. If the unloader valve sticks shut, outlet water pressure builds up until you trigger the spray wand or the pressure relief valve trips to release excess pressure. Replace the unloader valve if excessive pressure builds when the spray wand isn't in use.
Some pressure washers have a pressure regulator that limits the water pressure. A defective pressure regulator can cause high pressure at the nozzle. Replace the pressure regulator if it doesn't regulate outlet water pressure properly.
