ok here is the situation, I have two 3000PSI pressure washer pumps, and a gas engine, If I took both and connected them to the motor, supplied enough water flow and used a coupler to join the output on both, will I get 6000psi of water pressure or will I end up creating back pressure and possibly damaging the pums, or will I get killed in the process.
I hope someone with an engeniering degree reads this, maybe I can get a valid answer. oh and forgive me for my spelling disaster here....he he he

You'll get less than 3000psi. With the two pumps competing
for power from the motor you will get two inferior sprays
depending on how much power they take from the motor.

The answer is not straightforward. There are a lot of things that go into flow rate and maximum flow rates, which is what you are concerned about here. I suggest you go to the cited source and register. Then you can work your issues using a proper tool.
