[Shop-talk] pressure washer; minimum useful pressure

[Battmain]

Sears has a 3100 psi on sale for $450.  I bought a 3000psi
a few years ago
from Lowes. Other than the fuel shutoff
valve going bad, it has held up to
whatever I've thrown at
it. (I bypassed the fuel valve with some fuel line.)
May be overkill for the car parts, but you'll enjoy using a
good unit instead
of bitching at a useless lower pressure
unit.

I need to clean dirty
car parts, hence I need a pressure washer.

Some local folks say I need at
least 2200 PSI to get the job done.

Is this about right?

Is there  better
solution?

Budget  is limited to about $500

thanks

Skip
