Honda GCV160 5.5

I have a TBilt pressure washer with a honda cgv 1600 that is giving me fits. It will idle all day pn full choke. New gas good flow, filters are clean, no low oil feature, pil level it right.

As soon as I even start to take the choke off full the engine stops like there is a brake on it. It does not spin down and stop like it does with the kill switch. I stops like bcc a brake was applied. Even with the pump removed from the engine. I am at a loss

Guys…these “Consumer Grade” washers are Trash…I’ve had customers try and give us these units…If you depend on your equipment for income…Get equipment you can depend on to continue bringing in income…

Just saying…
