I purchased this machine from home depot almost 3 months ago. I used it for the very first time yesturday. It had 2 water leaks and 1 oil leak but I tightened them up and that was that. But 1 out of every three times I let go of the trigger to stop the flow of water the machine pops. It sounds like a kids capgun. I think it is backfiring. It never does it with the trigger pressed and water flowing but it has done it about 3 times while just idoling. What is wrong with it and why would it do this on a BRAND NEW machine. I cant return it to home depot cause It's after 30 days.
Also It is using 1/3 more fuel than my other exact same size machine.
