Sweeper Shop · Upland, California
Give these guys a call, street sweepers have an APU so they should probably be able to help. Not too far from Pasadena.

@Gramps , if you get into a bind, have your guys hit up the local municipal or school district yards. That's a fairly common motor for sprayers and other stuff. Some of them keep parts on hand for the fuel pumps and such. If I still lived out there, the Prius would be enroute.

Without an engine model number...I can't be sure, but being a 2021 model, I'm guessing its briggs part number 844717.
I found one here at Steam X in Signal Hill. If you can find another tag on the engine with the model number/serial number...that would be ideal. I could pick it up and run it out there or meet them someplace. I can bring tools and swap it

Sounds like you shoulda sent a non-CA ground support team too. That's pathetic.
You need McGyvers for that position....can't train newbs to do it.
I know Pasadena had an accredited Fleet Service operation. I know Long Beach Fleet Service has qualified mechanics that work on those engines. We had several power washers with those engines and we bought parts from Steam X in Signal Hill. If you can’t get it fixed look for a Long Beach unit and have them call Fleet Services for repairs. They have a mobile truck and response to mutual aid situations. I know Long Beach sent out a least one strike team but I don’t know where they were deployed.

Damn, you're the man. Hell of a offer from you
Glad to see you got your problem solved! We actually have some good people living here in California! Thank you for your service and dedication and thank you for sending a strike team to LA to help with the fires. This is the worst fire in LA history.
I retired from Long Beach Fleet Service as a Mobile Mechanic / Equipment Mechanic.
