Why does my Troy-Bilt Pressure Washer pump have low or erratic pressure?
- BBrooke BrownJul 27, 2025
The pump may have low or erratic pressure due to several reasons: 1. A low-pressure spray tip may be installed. Replace it with a high-pressure spray tip. 2. The water inlet could be blocked. Clear the inlet. 3. There might be an inadequate water supply. Ensure adequate water flow. 4. The inlet hose may be kinked or leaking. Straighten the hose or patch the leak. 5. The inlet hose screen could be clogged. Check and clean it. 6. The water supply might be too hot (over 100°F). Provide a cooler water supply. 7. The high-pressure hose may be blocked or leaking. Clear any blockages in the outlet hose. 8. The spray gun could be leaking. Replace the spray gun. 9. The spray tip might be obstructed. Clean the spray tip.
