Why does my Craftsman Pressure Washer have erratic pressure?
- D
  Dustin FieldsAug 25, 2025
  If your Craftsman Pressure Washer is experiencing erratic pressure, there are several things you can check. First, make sure you are using a high-pressure nozzle. If not, replace it. Check for any blockages in the water inlet and clear them. Ensure that you have an adequate water supply. Straighten any kinks in the inlet hose, and patch any leaks. Also, check and clean the inlet hose strainer. Make sure the water supply temperature is not over 100°F. Clear any blockages in the high-pressure hose or replace it if it's leaking. If the gun is leaking, replace it. Finally, check the nozzle for obstructions and clean it. If the problem persists, the pump may be faulty, and it's best to contact a Sears service facility.
