Have a newer Cat pump-model# 4SF40GS1.It only puts out approx. 70% pressure and I can't figure out why.It has a Honda 13 HP DD,and has been winterized every fall.It runs fine and sounds normal,but simply does not have the power to give me 4 gpm at 2500 psi even,and it's rated for 3200 psi @ 4 gpm.I did remove the unloader,so she's running straight through to a double tubed gun that is always opened,and I vary my pressure accordingly at the gun.
Any advice?How might I troubleshoot this myself B/4 I take it to a service center? Out of 5 DD machines I have,this ones the biggest dog,and is the newest,too.For being the mercedes of pumps and the $$$ I spent,I am disappointed.My very first machine I bought 6 years ago at Sams club w/ a rusty old AR pump will honestly kick this cats anus right now.
Thanks fellas,
