Excell Pressure Washer

18 years ago

I have an new Excell 2800 pressure washer. I use this and have a problem when using a certain opening. It works fine except when I use the 40 degree nozzle. It will work for a minute or two, then I loose pressure. If I pause for just a minute it will come back at full pressure. When using any other tips I do not have any problem.

Is the pump defective or is it cavitating?

Sounds like the output exceeds the input of water ?

I've got an Excell also and it's a POS. It takes a lot of time (a min. or two) to build up pressure before I can spray. My Honda is really nice, builds pressure immediately and works great. Once the Excell has pressure though, it doesn't lose it - I'm not sure why yours does.
