NT&E stores have in house techs that do minor repair on their equipment. If your store doesn't,the last time i needed help I called the Plano Tx store. He told me how to fix it on the phone. I have a Northstar washer w/Honda engine and Cat pump that has surpassed my expectations and still going strong.

Did you pick this up in store? have one around you? You can always go swap it out.

UPDATE I had emailed NT over the weekend and expected to receive a reply today Monday. Ample opportunity to get back to me given the time zone diff. No word so I phoned and went through the telephone tree, was connected with a tech guy, most pleasant. We just don't see it being a pump issue. Maybe stuck valve. Anyway NT guy said take it to a Honda shop which I have done. I'll keep you posted and let y'all know if I am a dunce, if the warranty is good, and what kind of mood I am in when it is all said and done. Cheers.

The Final word. I took it in to the Honda authorized dealer and they said nothing wrong with it and I need to follow instructions. Well gents. This big motor is more than I can turn over. I like to thing I am farm ready even though I aint twenty two any more. I Can't start this "nice machine". I'm gonna sell it at a loss to get it out of my frigging sight. It shouldn't be sold with out electric start. I have run equipment all my life and this purchase is nothing but a disappointment.

I think the authorized Honda dealer is blowing smoke up your axx!
I am almost 81 years old, and have no trouble starting my GX390 powered pressure washer.

I have a honda motor on mine (don't know if red or black) And I cannot pull on it IF the water is turned on. I leave water off, release any pressure on the wand, Pulls over and cranks like a dream, then turn water on real quick! Only way I can start it!

cut off the water. Relieve the pressure and try to start it. If you can, turn water back on. 30 seconds with just a bit of water in it is no issue.
