My 96/97 does not have Allen for the fill bolt thankfully. It’s a 21 mm bolt

Simple Question. Have you ever taken apart an old 1976 Gilson 826 ?? the one I have I bought it new in 1976 and I am trying to get the impeller Drive assy out so I can straighten the impeller. Thinking it comes out the Front . I have the whole Back end apart but the bearing seems to hit a stop on the shaft and will not slide out and do not want to force it. Not much luck with UA-cam or any answers from other Content creators. Tanks Much.. Mike M.

Mine started using a quart of oil per month at 40,000 miles. They told me at the dealership that that was commonplace for this model.Not good.Hope it doesn't get much worse.

The no light in cargo is really aggravating. I wish they could make engine less noisy at low speed....sounds like a little Tractor. However I do like the way it drives and it's a lot of car for the $$

Seen you on Ken’s livestream today. Subscribed to fellow Canadian. Didn’t quite hear where your from. Watching from Waterloo. I use Pennzoil Platinum for all my vehicles. It’s also one of the only 5L jugs, most others are 4.5L. If you haven’t already seen Lake Speed Jr’s channel (The Oil Geek) he is very knowledgeable and is very good.

Fantastic job brother 👏 👍🏻

Perfect example of why using fuel stabilizer is so important. Mix it in your jerry can and you never have to worry about anything you filled from it.

Just Subscribed 😊 great meeting ya brother 🙏 thanks for sharing 👍🏻

Hey Rick. Good that you came up on Ken's livestream today. It's been running for years and it's always great when a new person joins the panelists. If you ever want to do a live repair on Ken's Saturday stream, the live repairs are usually a big hit.

Merry Christmas Rick! I was going g to tell you a neat trick for moving your car easily but it doesn't look like it would work in your case! Hahaha 😂 I'll tell you anyway. Just go to one of the tires and turn it and it's much easier to roll. Learned that from another mechanic. Awesome oil drain pan as well!

And always a good time for an under carriage inspection and making time for repairs lol

Should start a go fund me or a Kickstarter campaign and get into manufacturing and selling of your oil collection system its way better than most I've seen out there lol, btw ur only 4 yrs older than Mike but u look older than me there young blood 🤣🤣🤣

You can look up the specs & use two drill bits to set the main slide & the idle screw

No just go to Kens small engine repair live stream at 2 pm EST on Saturday he is on Restream and he always puts up the link in the comments.

Thanks great video

Drop in on Kens live stream Saturdays at 2pm EST to comment or come up with the panel as my guest if you would like it could help expand your channel.

If it was run for any length of time with that mouse nest on too of the head, that's guaranteed to overheat and seize the engine.

Quality reenactment!!!

I put 26 inches on mine

Not the right year of my quad I’m glad to see you passing on the knowledge and your daughter wanting to learn it! You have a good story.

I use to work as a tire tech. You wouldn’t believe how many people would keep driving a run flat tire with no air in it for weeks even months and wonder why their tire is destroyed . I carry a spare tire , compressor and plug kit. Also have winter tires and all seasons on rims . Swap over every fall and spring. I find you get the most life out of a set of all season tires this way.

When I put my machine in speed sometimes it doesn’t move approximately you think it’s the belts thank you

Fuel stabilizers barely work if at all. Snake oil I don’t use it anymore. They play with our ego. Non ethanol gas is best. Turn off fuel while still running, run carb dry for engines that sit for long periods. Best to drain all fuel in the tank if it may sit over a year. Shrouds on carb allows it to suck warm air from engine to keep carb from icing up which they likely will even if it does not get any snow in there. With all that I must say you did an excellent job. You saved them a lot of a Hassle and money.

Thank you for sharing this video with us!

Great video thank you and for storing I run it dry with stabilized fuel then i use trufuel only for storage purposes it last two years after opening and five years unopened then I use SeaFoam one oz per gallon of ethenol free gas during the season … again that was a great video thanks..

I just fixed a Bolens, which is an MTD snowblower. He broke the starter drive and he broke the pull cord, so he wonder if I can fix it. Took the belt cover off and looked in there first. nothing broke there. remove the spark plug and pour some transmission oil down the cylinder and let it set over night. Use my channel locks, grabbed a hold of the crankshaft and started moving it back-and-forth. It broke free. Took the bowl off the carburetor, cleaned the jet removed all the dirt and drain the gas tank. Put it all back together, put in fresh fuel and a fuel shut off. Started right up got it warm, then changed the oil. I change the pull cord on the recoil to get it started. Runs good now.

Always start the engine, heat it up, then change the oil. All the contaminants fall out of the oil and sit on the bottom of the crank case, by starting it up, the contaminants mix with oil and can be removed. (Or the contaminants can be mixed in with the new oil, It's your choice).

I have that model hS70 never had to do anything..used in Canada left in rain out side during summer...never find another machine like that

In addition to stabilizer, I recommend running the carb dry after every use. I always shut the fuel valve off and let it run out of gas.

Thanks, very comprehensive and straightforward explanations. 👍

You sound like a fellow Canadian…….

Shoulda bought an Ariens!

Bad fuel

Do you recommend installing a fuel line shut off valve? I’ve put them on my small engines and let the carb starve during each shut down. 🇨🇦👍

As we already see I bet the machine was fueled with ethanol containing gas and they let it sit and it drew water out of the air and corroded the bottom of the bowl. always drain the carb and tank for seasonal storage. we store by draining the tank then adding about a half a cup of Automatic transmission fluid to fill the carb bowl, "then" remember at the start of the season drain the ATF from the bowl and add fresh non ethanol fuel.. use peppermint oil spray to deter mice , they hate the smell if putting a small engine into off season storage pull the plug add a about a tea spoon full of engine oil crank the engine over slowly to coat the cylinder so you dont get rust ..or turn the engine over a few times at least once a month , try and store the engine on the compression cycle so both valves are closed..

It's hydrolocked pull sparkplug

Old Man from Eliminator Performance here in Ontario, Canada. We have tried storing fuel with many stabilisers and we (and confirmed by Taryl Fixes All 5 month trial video) the Startron brand actually creates (do not know why) more jellification (an EP terminology of ethanol jell) than regual 87 octane fuel with 10% ethanol and no stabiliser added. At EP we use K100s+ stabiliser without issue and again in Taryl's video there was no ethanol jell after 5 months of storage. Last year we switched over to the BG line of products and no issue with the BGSC2 stabiliser after 5 months of storage. If we work on equipment being stored and it just had an ultrasonic cleaning at EP we will put one litre of Kinetix alkylate fuel into the fuel tank and guarantee the customer a 2 year start up if it sits that long (this especially on generators both 4 and 2 stroke). All in all a good video but i would suggest changing to another stabiliser and either check EP or Taryl out on UA-cam. Project Farm also has a great video on stabilisers.

30 minute video to find out he didn't have the switch on 🤔 thanks for the video.

Use non ethanol fuel and save yourself a lot of problems. I canada I always use Premiun Gas and never have carb problems.

I made the switch to running non ethanol fuel in my outdoor equipment about 5 years ago and I haven’t had any carburetor issues since. I also before I put my lawnmower away for fall I run it run it completely out of fuel and Visa versa putting my snowblower away in spring.

Just subbed to your channel! Mice can destroy anything. I hate those nasty Bugars. I wonder if there's anything under flywheel shroud? The drive system is like a Snapper rear engine mower. Nice job! Thanks!

Nice fix

Thanks for this video. I've had issues with my Husqvarna blower for the last 10 or 12 years of ownership. I think I may now be able to solve some of the issues I've had! Also fill the tank right to the top when storing!

Out of ALL the things I work on I hate snowblowers the most!!!

The inside of the engine looked great but that carb looked terrifying...lol..Are you in Canada or here in the states?? I am in Pa and I really hope we do not get any snow this year in the Philadelphia area..-John

Seen the gas colour when you cracked the drain nut, as a golden rule for any and ally engines i always start them atleast once every 2 to 3 weeks, and never keep gas in the tanks more than 3 months unless I'm using them constantly, lawnmowers,rototillers get a complete fresh tsnk with right amount of stabilizer right before parking them for winter, but still start them during winter months, and always keep the gas tanks filled to the top, and fresh oil flush amd change before storage helps come spring time, and remember if you leave them out in the snow uncovered that will lead to surface rust from moisture in the air, so try to put a cover over that goes beyond the body of your machine, once again great video rick, thanks for posting

We just bought a used Tig with 68k hoping to get another 100k out of it. Handles and drives very nice. Very roomy for the size. We turn off the auto start. It’s annoying!!! Not a fan of interference engines but I guess maintenance is key. Nothing is perfect

Hello you are complety out You need to ajust the cable first. Open the trottle for the slide come flush with the top of the body of the carbu for one cylinder, you pass your finger to be sure the slide is flysh keep the trottle at this place and pass your finger to the other carburator and adjust the cable for the slide is equal at the other. You need too lookes for the slide dont tap at the carbu cover, if yes loose equaly the cable like a half of turn. Your maner to ajust at idle is not applicable cause its depend how is the idle screw is a vacuum gauge is nessessairy to that

Love this and will be using this method soon. Tks for sharing
