Most Replaced Parts on the Troy-Bilt 020316
Pump Seal Set for the Troy-Bilt 020316
The pump seal set contains the piston and valve seals maintaining pressure inside the pump cylinders. A seal set cracked from freeze damage or worn from use allows water to bypass the pistons, reducing output pressure and producing leaks from the pump body.
Spray Nozzle for the 020316
A nozzle orifice enlarged from wear or debris reduces maximum cleaning pressure. Clean nozzles with the provided cleaning wire rather than a drill bit, which enlarges the orifice permanently.
Unloader Valve for the Troy-Bilt 020316
A stuck-open unloader valve causes the unit to run but produce no pressure at the output. A stuck-closed unloader valve causes pressure surges when the spray trigger is released.
High-Pressure Hose for the 020316
A hose that is kinked, cracked at the crimp fittings, or has ballooned from internal delamination must be replaced immediately to prevent sudden failure under operating pressure.

Troy-Bilt 020316 Pressure Washer Parts FAQ
What is the Troy-Bilt 020316 pressure washer?
The Troy-Bilt 020316 is a gas-powered residential pressure washer with a direct-drive triplex pump driven by a single-cylinder OHV engine. Gas-powered Troy-Bilt pressure washers in this series include related models such as the 020245 and 020344 on similar direct-drive platforms.
Why does my Troy-Bilt 020316 lose pressure during use?
Pressure loss during use is most commonly caused by a worn pump seal set allowing water to bypass the pump pistons, a clogged spray nozzle restricting output, or an unloader valve stuck in the bypass position. Inspect and clean the spray nozzle before disassembling the pump.
Why is my Troy-Bilt 020316 leaking water from the pump?
Water leaking from the pump body indicates a failed pump seal set or a cracked pump housing. Inspect the pump housing for cracks before ordering only the seal set.
How do I winterize the Troy-Bilt 020316?
Run pump saver solution through the pump until it exits the discharge outlet. This fills the pump cylinders and seals with antifreeze and lubricant that prevents the pump seals from cracking during storage in freezing temperatures.
