Pressure Washer leaks

I have a Karcher pressrure washer that is leaking water through the black plastic piece that connects the hose to the machine. Is it fixable, or shoud I dispose of it and get a new one?

My 7 year old Ariens Sno-Thro with a Techumseh engine starts and runs fine, but the electric starter suddenly fails to engage the engine. The electric starter motor runs fine but doesn't engage the engine to start it. It just runs "free". Could it have ironically frozen in the cold weather? Otherwise, it starts with the recoil just fine.

I have a Wheel Horse 265-H (hydrostatic drive), and am interested in replacing the vertical gas engine with an electric motor that will put out the equivalent of 20 to 25 HP. It would turn the vertical shaft continuously, and as the drive pedal tightens the belt the tractor transmission engages, forward and reverse as it does with the gas engine. Does anyone have experience, advice, suggestions, resources for doing this? Are there books, plans, websites where I can learn what's needed and how to put it together? Thanks, Antifa
