Hey all, I just purchased a plastic media/alox sandblasting business and a 13hp honda hot water pressure washer with a General ez 4040 pump was in the deal. I use it to clean grease off parts before blasting so the media is not contaminated. I know this set up is a toy to all of you but it is all i need. My problem is the pump leaks a fair amount of oil on the frame and is coming out the bottom of the pump. I can't be sure the original owner made sure the oil was to the dot every time. It seems to work fine. My question is, is it worth rebuilding the pump or does is make more sense to buy just the pump and transfer all the parts to the new one. I'm new to the site and I never imagined there was so much to pressure washing. Glad I found you all. Thanks for your help.

Yeah...I figured a rebuild would be close to what a new one would cost. I didn't price parts but new is the way to go. Thanks.
