Why does my Craftsman 580.767450 Pressure Washer have low or erratic pressure?
- A
  Abigail JohnsonJul 31, 2025
  If your Craftsman Pressure Washer pump isn't producing pressure, has erratic pressure, chatters, loses pressure, or has low water volume, here's what you can check: * Ensure the nozzle is in high pressure mode by pulling it backward. * Clear any blockages in the water inlet. * Make sure the water supply is adequate. * Straighten any kinks in the inlet hose and patch any leaks. * Check and clean the inlet hose strainer. * Ensure the water supply is not over 100°F; use cooler water. * Clear any blockages in the high pressure hose. * If the gun leaks, replace it. * Clean any obstructions in the nozzle. * If the pump is faulty, contact a Sears service facility.

What to do if my Craftsman Pressure Washer engine will not start?
- A
  Alyssa RobinsonAug 5, 2025
  If your Craftsman Pressure Washer engine won't start or runs rough, consider the following: 1. Clean or replace the air cleaner if it's dirty. 2. Fill the fuel tank if it's out of gasoline. 3. Drain the gas tank and fill it with fresh fuel if the gasoline is stale. 4. Connect the spark plug wire to the spark plug. 5. Replace the spark plug if it's bad. 6. Drain the gas tank and fill it with fresh fuel if there's water in the gasoline. 7. Open the choke fully and crank the engine if it's overchoking. 8. If the fuel mixture is excessively rich, or if the intake valve is stuck, or if the engine has lost compression, contact a Sears service facility.

How to fix detergent not mixing in my Craftsman 580.767450 Pressure Washer?
- C
  Christine HughesAug 12, 2025
  If the detergent isn't mixing with the spray in your Craftsman Pressure Washer, here's what to check: * Repair or replace the detergent line if it's collapsed or kinked. * Replace the tank if the chemical tank filter is clogged. * See “Check In-Line Filter” if the in-line filter is dirty. * Push the nozzle forward for low pressure mode, as high pressure mode prevents mixing. * Rotate the Dial-a-Cleaner™ knob to the desired chemical; ensure it's not in the off position.

  Howard GuerraAug 17, 2025
  If your Craftsman Pressure Washer engine runs well without a load but bogs down when a load is added, move the throttle control to the FAST position. If the engine still bogs down, contact Sears service facility.

Why does my Craftsman 580.767450 Pressure Washer engine falter?
- C
  cindyjonesAug 25, 2025
  If your Craftsman Pressure Washer engine “hunts” or falters, move the choke to the halfway position until the engine runs smoothly. This is likely because the choke was opened too soon.
