fix a “garden sprayer” that WON’T pump up pressure (don’t throw it away) EASY FIX

Just because a garden sprayer stops working doesn’t mean you should throw it out and get another one. The same thing is going to happen to the new one. These sprayers need maintenance. Once you understand the concept of how to fix these you’ll probably be picking these up on the side of the road when other people just threw them away. The amazon links for silicone grease or a new sprayer are below...

You are so correct, lubrication is key to smooth pumping action. 😉

Was about to replace mines. I then saw the price on amazon and said to myself "someone else has to have had this problem'.. Thanks your fix definitely worked for me.

So glad I checked YouTube before replacing mine. They’re honestly pretty cheap but any money we can save is always a bonus!

That was an easy fix and you just saved me $50 or more. I was about one day away from throwing my sprayer away and heading for the hardware store. And I didn't even need any new parts or materials to fix it. Thank you very much!!

Thanks from Ireland 🇮🇪
I’d a pressure sprayer that’s quite old and I was going to dump it but now it’s back in action & like new 🙏🏻

Love a short, straight to the point video.

Awesome. My fix was even easier - the rubber two way valve (that I didn't know existed!) had dropped off and was sitting at the bottom hidden by the opaque weedkiller. Popped it back on - job done. Thankyou!

Thanks mate for the video. I just fixed my hand pump. The manufacturer told me to buy another one but my old one works like new again thanks to you.

Listen, I followed your instructions and my sprayer got fixed THANK MY ROACHES WILL DIE TONIGHT!

Most of the $30 +/- price range have a few negative reviews on Home Depot, Lowes, ... And they mostly complain about pressure problems. Thank you very much for your service.

my gasket had not come loose, but a simple cleaning and a lil lube fixed my cheapo unit from ACE hardware. so thank you!

I was just going to head into town to buy a new one.... decided to check out YouTube first....cheers for the detailed fix....sprayer now working better than what it was when new 😊😊

[dustincercado]

Thanks for sharing. Our HDX sprayer wouldn't hold any pressure today. Watched your video to get a good idea on how to repair our sprayer. Our sprayer was fixed thanks to you.

Having the same problem, I'm about to throw mine away. Thank you for the helpful tutorial.

Just what I was looking for in a How to YouTube video. Thanks for taking the time to put it online.

Thank you! I just got mine and was looking at the maintenance section and was so confused about how to release the locking collar. I wanted to see what it looked like while it was new. My new unit has a ton of lubricant on it! The instructions say petroleum jelly is ok. Also, thanks for showing how to reassemble it — also not obvious from the instructions. Great video - this is a keeper!

[stenz]

This just saved me a trip to town and a purchase of a new sprayer. Thank you so much! I wish there was a super thanks option for this video because I would definitely give support

[treylytton]

I’ve been looking for this fix for years. Took me 30 seconds to fix. Thanks

I fixed two sprayers this afternoon and they work fine. Thanks for the tips and the proper lubrication, I had no idea regarding that. It's the key to this problem.

I'm an old guy that was raised poor and in the country so we learned early to repair things and make them last. I wish there was a high school class now that taught kids to be resourceful and make basic repairs on things like this. They might actually realize that they could save enough money to live a better life by not trashing things or paying somebody too much to do their repairs. This repair takes less tthan 5 minutes and it saved $20 plus the time and effort of buying another one.
