    What to do with pressure washer motors?

    So after years of have 2 pressure washers sitting around taking up space I bought a new one.(Simpson 3200) I had both motors running but pumps are trashed on them. So the question is are there any other uses for these motors?

    So he essentially keyed a pulley to the bottom to run a belt to an alternator? Did he have a converter?

    When I was 10, my Dad took a horizontal shaft power washer motor and put it on a junk go-kart body we got from a neighbor. It was fun, underpowered, and if I made a sharp left hand turn it would lose oil pressure and shut off lol.

    What about that guy at TF with the boombox powered by a small engine that was on his Big Red? Build one of those and I'll bring a TV and we can all do karaoke

    I thought these were electric motors. LOL

    Whenever I hear motor I think electric. Engine I think gas powered.

    I have seen a couple drift trikes with those engines on them. . Depends on the size of the engine but some gokarts use them. I raced back years ago. Ran the 5.5 and 6.5 HP engines.

    Chicks love guys that ride trikes

    First time someone corrected me on that I asked him why there wasn’t an EngineTrend magazine.

    Something about the Brits motoring about the countryside. We live in crazy times.
