  If your Troy-Bilt Pressure Washer's engine won't start or runs rough, several factors could be at play. First, check the oil level and fill the crankcase to the proper level if it's low. Ensure the air cleaner is clean; if it's dirty, clean or replace it. Make sure you have enough fuel in the tank, and if the fuel is stale, drain the tank and refill with fresh fuel. Check that the spark plug wire is securely connected to the spark plug, and replace the spark plug if it's bad. Finally, drain the fuel tank and fill it with fresh fuel if there's water in the fuel.

How to troubleshoot pressure issues with my Troy-Bilt Pressure Washer?
- A

  If your Troy-Bilt Pressure Washer pump isn't producing pressure, several issues could be the cause. Make sure you haven't installed a low-pressure spray tip; if you have, replace it with a high-pressure spray tip. Check if the water inlet is blocked and clear it. Ensure that the water supply is adequate. Straighten any kinks in the inlet hose and patch any leaks. Inspect and clean the inlet hose screen. Verify that the water supply isn't over 100°F (38°C), and provide a cooler water supply if needed. Clear any blockages in the high-pressure hose. Replace the spray gun if it's leaking. Clean the spray tip if it's obstructed.

Why is detergent not mixing with the spray on my Troy-Bilt 020489 Pressure Washer?

  If the detergent fails to mix with the spray in your Troy-Bilt Pressure Washer, it could be due to two main reasons. Check if the detergent shut-off valve is in the 'Off' position and turn it to the 'On' position. Alternatively, a high-pressure spray tip might be installed; if so, replace it with a low-pressure spray tip.
