northern supply has a variety of washers with Honda engines

PS- the pump's as important as the engine. do some research.

PipeGuy is right the pumps can vary greatly.

Most of the bigbox and warehouse stores carry a line of washers that have light duty pumps.

Found that out personally a few years ago, Bought a nice Honda powered washer from Costco, great deals on them there.

I used it very little maybe 30 hours per year, lasted about 2 maybe 3 years and the pump exploded like a grenade.

Contacted the guys I referred above, they set me up with a replacement that looked identical to the original pump but weighed about 3 times as much. Which equaled heavier crank shaft, connecting rods, pistons, plungers you name it. I probably have 100s of hours on that replacement pump with no troubles.
