I ran it, accidently, for about 15 minutes without water hookup and now, the pump does not run. Does the pump need to be replaced from running 15 minutes? First time used this year, ran fine last year. Quote #1 1 Reply Related Threads

If you are unable to start the motor, separate the pump from and try as the pump is probably locked up. Water is the cooling agent water pumps don't survive being ran dry.

Briggs and Straton Gas power washer

Briggs and Straton gas Pressure washer. I ran it, accidently, for about 15 minutes without water hookup and now, the pump does not run. Does the pump need to be replaced from running 15 minutes? First time used this year, ran fine last year.
