Pressure Washer stopped running. Attempted Repairs. Won't start at all

Spinning it with the water pump onto the engine would not be that easy....! seems you have uncovered the problem, or one of them.:wink:
 
Yes a sheared key will cause a no starting issue and your problems or some of them in your first post....

Yes you can spin the flywheel by hand with no key in it.......
 
Good news! I was able to replace the key and she fired up on the 3rd pull. I hear this strange tapping sound when the engine is running now. I may have put too much oil in it. Could this possibly be the cause of the tapping noise? Either that or something is slightly lose causing the sound. I don't want to have to tear this thing apart again especially now that it is running. Perhaps the tapping noise is normal and I am just being paranoid?

I appreciate everyone's help in getting this pressure washer back up and running!
