Additional Information

The Briggs & Stratton, Craftsman Pressure Washer Throttle Control (part number 312503GS) manages engine speed by responding to the spray gun trigger. When you release the trigger, it idles the engine to save fuel and reduce wear. Pulling the trigger increases engine speed for strong water pressure and effective cleaning.

If your pressure washer engine surges, stalls when you release the trigger, or runs at the wrong speed, the throttle control may be worn or damaged. Replacing it can restore steady engine performance and improve cleaning results.

Before starting the repair, turn off the pressure washer, disconnect the spark plug wire, and let the engine cool. Installation involves opening the throttle housing, removing the old control, and securing the new one. Wear work gloves to protect your hands from sharp edges and moving parts, and follow your model s service manual for correct installation.
