Search for a replacement pump, buy and replace the pump..

Pump alone should be much less than a new washer. Once pump is removed,
you should be able to run the engine, sans pump... if it runs OK... it is
good.

I do not think it is a fuel issue due to the fact that when I pull the
cord after it has run a few minutes and warmed up I can feel resistance
on the motor so I am thinking pump drawing too much power/locking up.

Pump drawing too much power, or engine is fuel starved from a clogged fuel

Don't knock Sears.
I bought a 6.5 HP Sears pressure washer on sale probably 6-7 years ago.
Other than a cracked fuel cap, it has worked flawlessly. Briggs Stratton
engine, good runner, plenty of power.
The real benchmark of a good pressure washer is nothing more than power. Get
the most

Depends on what you want to spend, along with the
amount of pressure you want to get out of it.
A decent +2000 psi 5-6HP name brand pressure washer
will probably set you back $300-$400. Don't bother
with the electric ones - they're prety much worthless
for something as major as cleaning siding.
Pressure washer plus house is no good. Get a stiff brush, a 5 gal pail
of water with a half gallon of bleach, and your hose and have at it.
There is a reason why a PW saves so much time (hint: first word pressure)
