SOURCE: Foaming in pump oil window

I dont know which comet pump you have, but it is just easier to get a new pump from one of the pressure washer companies on the internet and they sell them on ebay. You can also probably get a better pump that will fit your engine as well. Also, have you tried just changing the oil and not fill it too full? On my 5000 lb washer, if i fill the oil too high when I change the oil, it will foam some. Hope this helps you, Rick

SOURCE: What kind of oil do I put in my Comet AXD2524G-T pump?

If the Comet Pressure Pump Oil is some kind of a
Synthetic Oil that supposed to be extra effecient than
an ordinary oil, then that will cost extra. If that is ordinary multi grade engine oil (SAE 20 - 40), then, you
can buy over the counter. Most synthetic oil have additive that give extra longer life to all moving parts.

SOURCE: what type of oil goes in a comet axd 3020 pressure

You should use what the pump manufacturer recommends. Typically a 30wt non-detergent (non foaming) oil. Do not over fill. If there is a sight glass half way is normal. Or if it has a dip stick follow the mark there.

HOW TO CHANGE A OIL PUMP ON A BMW 316I M43 1995 MODEL

Low oil pressure? It's not your pump. It the crankshaft bearings. I have never replaced an oil pump for low pressure. Always the bearings. I have replaced them because I did the rebuild or someone just wanted a high pressure pump. Don't waste your time on just a pump, only to have the same results. If you really like the car and it is worth it to you. Build the engine...It is 30 years old.

Comet axd 3020 will not build pressure

junk axial wobble plate pump. Usually axial pumps are not worth the time to try to fix them. This one has a 5 year warranty , so they think they have a pretty good one. ( I would never buy one) If you want to try to fix it, I would check the check valves first. Take them out and see if some are broken or not sealing properly. There is a valve kit available.
The other likely problem is your unloader valve. If the seal is shot or the valve stuck open the pump will not build pressure.
