What actually happens to a pressure washer if used without the air filter? 

[AsktheBuilder]

@jbcleaningg Over time the engine will wear much faster as you introduce tiny bits of dirt and sand (tiny rock) into the combustion chamber.

You forgot the most important thing: ALWAYS CHECK THE WIRE WHICH IS CONNECTED TO A PLUG (because with pressure washer ... a shock will kill you straight)

@mgarrbomberstm Great point if the machine is *electric*. The one in this video is gasoline powered.

Soap and water worked well for Italy, but not sure if it will work for Greece.

Great video and well said about the necessary safety aspects...

@ganesan191 The PSI is dependent completely on which one you buy. Most homeowner basic models around 3000 in my experience. Gas is slightly more common then electric, most of the electrics one I’ve seen are most useful for really gentle cleaning like car washing.
