A:  yes, it is self priming....at least with my use of it.

A:  Well....its rated for 300 gals/hour at ten feet I think, which gives you 5 gals a minute. But I have used this pump for about 2 years, and though it is strong and very reliable, I am not sure that it will deliver enough volume of water to drive a 4 gallon a minute pressure washer. The specs says it will, but I would be hesitant. All you can do is try. Maybe buy it, and measure how fast it fills a 5 gallon bucket. If it does not give you at least 5 gals a minute, return it. That's what I would probably do before you set it up and hook it into your system.

A:  I have used this pump to fill up a 400 gal tank from a cow water trough, did not take long so I believe it would supply you with enough water to operate your pump. you will need a good power supply with good wiring to supply proper voltage.

A:  I’m not real sure but wouldn’t think it would handle a tank and pressure washer that large but I sure could be wrong. I guess you could try it . Mine is hooked up to a 42 gal poly tank and I only get a small spray stream of solution from my hose . I am applying systemic to my yard for my trees
