Pump Leaking Oil

Recommended Posts

For Those Of You That Might Remember From An Old Post That I Had Inherited A Craftsman Power Washer. It Seemed Like An Ok Machine For Little Jobs Around The House. I Used It Just This Past Sunday And When I Was Done I Noticed A Rainbow Underneath The Pump. I Tipped The Machine Backwards And Saw Oil Seepage ( Spell Check Please ) Coming From A Bolt On The Pump. I Went To Snug Up The Bolt And Noticed That It Was Tight. What Shall I Do

Is there a ring (O-ring or washer) that either should be there, or is there but has deteriorated? Take the bolt off and check....most likely you will see that there is a space near the head of the bolt on the underside where an O-ring should be. If this is the case, you should be able to get an assorted set from a hardware store (heck, if it's craftsman you'd think Sears would have them).
