I have a 5HP sears pressure washer with briggs and stratton engine that is leaking oil. This engine has no oil filter or oil drain plug. To change oil I tilt it on its side to drain the oil out and put new oil back in that filer hole, so it's not like there's a loose plug or filter. Furthermore I can't really tell where the oil is leaking from. There is oil all around the engine and it leaks very slowly -- a few drops per day.
I wonder if this is a blown head gasket. If it is, how hard it is to repair it myself, or how much would it cost to have it repaired?
I see several options:
-try to replace the gasket
-put new and thick oil in before each use (twice each year). Previously I use synthetic 10w40 left over from car oil change.
-buy a new washer
Any advice?
