A Little Bit About The Stock Pump. It’s A Devilbiss (Part# D27983) Radial Two Piston Design. This Pump Is Made Out Of All Aluminum. The Two Piston Design Is Known For Noise And Vibration. The Devilbiss Pump Doesn’t Use Oil And This Is Why It Only Last For 50Hrs And Is Also Known As A Disposable Pump. They Do Still Sell Them But In The Long Run It’s Better To Upgrade To A Pump That Uses Oil And Has More Pistons To Lower The Noise And Vibration.
A Little About The Best Pump For This Pressure Washer. It’s A Little Giant Pump. It’s A Direct Replacement And The Part Number Is GXH2525A. This Pump Uses Oil And Has A Life Of 500+ Hrs. It’s a Horizontal Triple Piston Pump Which Means It Has Less Vibration and Noise. The Pressure Can Be Adjusted Down From 2.5 GPM @ 2500 PSI. The Pump Has A Chemical Injector, Thermal Relief Valve And A Brass Head. Best Of All, These Pumps Are Made In The USA.

Can you tell me where I can buy the Little giant pump that you are talking about? Thanks
For some reason the link stopped working.. I just fixed it, so if you click the “GXH2525A” it will take you to the pump. sorry about that.
I bought the pump and installed it as you said and shown on the video. the video did not indicate to install a key between the shaft of the motor and the pump. Is a small metal piece required to be install into the slot on the shaft of the motor?
If so was this supposed to be shipped with the pump…because it wasn’t.
Please advise. Thanks.
Yes, you need a key way on the shaft to turn the pump. Depending on where you bought the pump sometimes they come with the pump but most times they don’t. So you will need to pick up a standard size key way.
