Default Is there a better way to remove a poison oak plant than with a chainsaw?

This power washer has not only a place to suck up liquid, but it already
has a hose attached. It's just not sucking up the liquid!

I'm sure it's because it needs a switch (somehow) flipped!

Here's a picture of the PowerStroke washer I just took for you.

It uses the Honda GC160 engine, if that helps.

Here is a closeup of the markings & the valving apparatus:

If anyone has ever used their pressure washer to suck out of the hose,
they would probably know what the secret configuration setup might be.


Mine sucks out of the tank(s) when the "soap" nozzle is inserted in
the wand. With the other nozzles the pressure is too high to suck the
soap out of the tanks.
