Having ---Zero--- luck finding your specific Karcher models on Amazon. Do you have links to the pages?
FYI, Honda small engines really run well! I'd accept one with a B&S, probably never wear one out on a pressure washer. The ones to avoid are the Honda Knock-Off's. They run fine till something goes wrong. Then they're trash - no service parts available.
I've used Sta-Bil with good results in the pressure washer. Lately, I've been going to the marina with my gas can. They sell ValvTecht, which is 89-octane, non-ethanol, and has a one-year stabilizer. I took the Honda carb apart twice to clear it after standing with un-stabilized 87-octane gasohol. No more.
