Cause of no spark can be determined by process of elimination. Good to have a new sparkplug on hand to eliminate plug as fault. So start by replacing plug with new or test plug on mower /edger etc. for spark. If plug ok, then temporarily remove the wire connected to oil alert system (oil alert will ground coil if oil low or dirty). With oil alert unpluged, and no spark suspect sparkplug boot or coil. The sparkplug boot threads on to the spartplug wire and is what actually fits-on to the spark plug. You can test the coil by removing the boot and inserting piece of paperclip wire, or small screw into end of the coil wire and hold close to engine ground while pulling rope. If still no spark suspect coil. If spark, replace the boot. Good luck with repair.

Briggs & Stratton 11 horse snowblower engine pulsating

this i what my pressure washer does... I would say its just getting aged and you shouldnt have to worry about it, but if you want to try to get it to stop then give it a good tune up. spark plug air filter and clean the carb out with a small wire or tourch tip cleaner to make sure all the passages are clean and clear... or just let it keep doing it like I do.

Honda gx390 has low power.

Well it sounds like you may need new piston rings or an engine rebuild due to low compression. But a good way to tell if you need an engine rebuild is to test the compression and see if it is up to spec. You can often just feel that the engine is very easy to turn over which is a good sign that you need a rebuild.

Oil grade and level in pump reservoir? Motor is shutting down, all else seems fine, assume is oil level. North Star with Honda GX340 - pressure washer.

15-40 there will be a fill mark that is easy to see when you remove the cap or it will have a dip stick

Second your oil pressure switch may be bad or have a bad connection

I want to remove the 4gpm pump on my pressure washer.

HI, It sounds like it is just stuck on the keyway as these can be very tight. You need to force the pump of evenly on either side and should come of if patient.

Engine keeps shutting down

Most Honda engines have an oil pressure switch that prevents engine damage due to low/no oil pressure. Make sure there is sufficient oil in the engine and that the wire is connected to the pressure switch.

Wont start

tip a cap full of fuel in top of the carb to start intitially, check for spark as common fault is on/off switch, If no spark, link the 2 wires on on/off switch together.
