Small engine wont start? Don't throw it away!

In this video I show how to take a small engine that won't start and fix it. I found a broken pressure washer for free at the dump and demonstrate how to get it running. I discuss the Otto Cycle (Intake, Compression, Expansion, Exhaust), or Suck, Squeeze, Bang, Blow and how the fire triangle (Fuel, Oxygen, Ignition) relate to small engines. Fuel is the gasoline, Oxygen is compression, and Ignition is the spark. I show how to test each one of these requirements with multiple methods. I demonstrate checking compression by pull start and how to use a compression test gauge. I show how to test spark the old school way as well as with a commercial tester. Then, I show how to clean fuel lines, fuel pickups, and the carburetor. I also discuss small engine best care practices for storage. Like shutting off the fuel valve and letting the carb run dry. Finally, I show the pressure washer fully repaired and sell it for a $100 profit.
