I bought this at the car bootie last year. I guess it's a bit long in

Naturally, it doesn't work properly (always the way!)
The pump runs but the water comes out in rapid pulsating spurts and
the pressure gauge fluctuates from zero to about 1/4 way round.

Quite often caused by insufficient inlet pressure or the presence of
a pressure limiting valve on the mains supply side. Try putting a
bucket of water about 4ft above the ground and taking a short length
of hose from that to the washer. If it works OK it is poor water feed
causing the problem.
