Do you leave your pressure washer in the rain if you're doing a multi-
day job? They pretty much get rained on while in use. The one I am
thinking of is a Dewalt, with a Honda engine / commercial brass pump
body.

I don't but if I was on a job site, I would get a 3 dollar tarp.

You sure the hose isn't under pressure from last time it was used? That
can make it impossible to pull. Hard to imagine water could get inside
the engine core. Seems more possible it could have rusted up the recoil
mechanism. If it's water logged internally, then pour out the oil,
remove the spark plug and then it should spin.

As for leaving them in the rain, I have a heavy duty electric one.
When I leave it outside, a 30 gal garbage can fits nicely over top.
