Ridgid 3300 PSI Pressure Washer

[RMCIII 838]

Anyone know about or have one of these? I picked one up a few months back for dad. The Cat pump was shot. So I ordered a new one... $178.99 for the pump and $20.00 for the rest of the unit. Seemed like a great deal since new they were selling for close to $1,400.00. Now they are no longer stocked becasue of the price/value who cares issue.... It has a Subaru 7hp EFI engine... I hav read good and bad about the engine. Seems it has mixed reviews once it is warmed up. Some say it is hard to start, others say no issue what so ever. I have not encountered the issues.... Dad I have used it successfuly quite a few times. The only issue I see is that the fuel pick up, in the tank, sets so high that you need to keep the tank above 1/4 tank or it starts to sputter... They say it was designed that way to keep all the water and crud from getting into the EFI system

 

Anyone have one?
