Pressure washer cranks and runs fine for about five minutes until it gets hot then the engine freezes up until it cools off. Could it be valve issue???

Is the engine freezing up or is the pump freezing up making it act like the engine is the problem. will need to remove the pump and then try the engine to see if that is the issue or maybe something wrong with the pump.

Are the oil levels good, inside of the engine itself and then the pump oil as well?
