I have a ryobi gas powered pressure washer, and a little while ago it started leaking oil. I took it to home depot because oil leak is beyond my home repair capabilities. They had to make a new gasket because they could not get the replacement gasket. After I got it back, it leaked a little, but much less than before, and then stopped leaking. When I was doing a driveway the other day, I moved the pressure washer and saw this gray stuff coming out. I would assume that it is oil mixed with water, but it seems to be much thicker than oil and it like corrodes away the driveway and leaves a small indentation that’s almost unnoticeable, but still a problem. Any ideas on what this could be?
