I'd never use a 16g extension cord on that size motor load.
Also, how long is the extension? I have an electric power washer
that a friend gave me and I always had problems with it tripping
the breaker, over heating and shutting off, etc. Until I finally
bought a 10g extension cord. Works fine ever since. If it's at the
point it's making burning smells, it may be kaput.


Hope I didn't kaput it over some thing as simple
as this.
