The gray knob screws onto the hose. The knob is not the issue. The silver nut behind the knob needs to be tightened. Unless I am misunderstanding you, I don't see how that will help. But tomorrow I will take it off and take a picture.

Just an update, the basin wrench does not fit in there. Any other tools?

I have the basin wrench and pipe dope on order...It's not the knob it's the nut behind the knob, just to be clear.

I completely missed your reply also. The pressure washer is brand new (cheap and made in China)

I completely missed your reply. And poor little gecko , awww, they are so cute.

Thank you....looking up pipe dope now. After taking it off and screwing it back on again, the leak is a LOT less. Whew! Can't believe I might get it fixed!

Ok it seems that the behind the knob there is a nut that goes onto the threaded section which is the pressure washer's hose outlet, and it is leaking right there. Is there a tool that I can use to tighten it more. My fingers can't get in there to get enough force. Also maybe I could try...

I have a washer in the hose end and the pressure washer came with a washer. The water is mostly coming out from behind the knob that I turn to connect the hose. It doesn't seem to be where the hose inserts but hard to tell with the water gushing out.

I tried plumbers tape but it leaks really bad..I hope there is something I can do, that maybe I don't know about. There's a knob on the pressure washer that I turn to thread it onto the hose end..it's not easy to turn because it's located right next to the wheel but it's seems tight enough.

Thanks...!

Thanks, Can you recommend a pressure gauge ? Or will any of them work just as well?

Yes it's a Woodford hydrant located under a lean-to.

The water line was put in about a month ago. It's been in the 70's here, so not below freezing. I think the length of the water line is 75 ft. I would like to measure the pressure out of the faucet and then measure it with the hose, but I don't think it's the hose.

I had a new water meter installed so I could run a water line from it to an outside barn faucet. First thing in the morning I fill water buckets and the spray is very powerful but after I turn it off and turn it back on to use again the stream is so small I can't even spray off bird poo on my...

I had a handyman install a new shower. The pipe you thread the shower arm onto is recessed inside the wall. So to screw on the shower arm, I push the shower arm inside the drywall. My issue is, if it's leaking, how would I know since the joint between the two pieces is inside the wall? Is...
