    craftsman powerwasher repair
    I have a craftsman 2200 psi that is about 8 years old. Am getting water in the oil of the pump and the engine. Could this be from multiple seal failure? Any information would be helpful. Sears repair costs would far exceed the value of the washer. Thank you

    Hi,
    Yes, I would guess that it is seal failure involving the high pressure side of the pump. The water in the engine would seem to indicate that. The high pressure would be enough to defeat even an otherwise integral seal.
    Peace,
