Free and Non-Running - The Easiest First Step

- Anytime i get small engines that "ran when parked" before i do anything else, I order an inexpensive aftermarket carb. It seems nine times out of ten, that is the fix.

Thanks for sharing the video and your trust in hipa parts. I'm glad that the wood chipper has came back to life after the carburetor swap.
I can attest that carburetors are easy to change. I'm a 62 year old woman and I changed my first one last year. We had an old weedeater that hadn't been used in years and wouldn't run. Bought a carburetor for less than $20 and watched a Chickanic video about how to change and adjust them. Changed (carb, fuel lines, fuel filter in tank) and adjusted it with no problems and now it runs like a champ.
Our culture has gotten so heavily entrenched in just throwing stuff away and replacing it if it breaks, it's nice to see you bringing these back to life with a relatively simple and cheap fix.
I agree
👍👍👍👍
You're not lying, it's a game changer once😊 you figure out how easy it is to swap them out
Absolutely
I have passed along (given away) a lot of stuff for exactly that reason. It was frustrating enough that it did not start when I wanted to use it and I got even more bothered when a few minutes of trying to get it running didn’t magically resolve it (you’re fired). That was Phase 2 of life where I had little to zero time to waste on things (or people) that were not working well.
Phase 1 of life…I happily collected others’ broken or non functioning stuff and fixed it.
Phase 3….now I have all the time in the world and dislike yielding to things that really need to work. Even if I don’t want it anymore, I’ll usually fix it before I give it away to someone who does want it.
Dagnabbit Kleeman , ya done got me to thinking about fixing up stuff outa the junk pile in the barn. Looking forward to seeing more of the pond build tomorrow.
Spot on with the comment “afraid of carburetors”. I have maintained thru out life that if it’s man made, it can be repaired, it’s just a matter of how much it cost if your not willing to invest some of your time and a few bucks in parts. There are some awesome deals out there. Thanks for sharing, enjoyed watching.

Yup, my Honda generator needed a carb runs like new now! Keep being frugal,thrifty, and just plain cheap! Love it!!!
💪
MIKE, don't know why it is, but, I can fix other people's 'junk' and it works fine. Me? Not so much! Got a great Service star riding mower, rebuilt the carburetor with the proper kit, TWICE, delved into New plugs, coil, and various other parts. Non-ethanol fuel, everything new now, still got nuthin! Cranks, got spark just won't fire on its own, only on starting fluid. Guess its a lost cause.
Awesome, you always win!😊
Eventually lol
Took me a bit longer to watch all the videos tonight. But I accomplished my goal! Now I'm going to bed! Good night,everyone and we'll catch you on the next one!
Glad you made some quick money. Its as good as slow money. It just gets there faster.
🤣🤣
Cap’n I did the same thing for my old LawnBoy push mower. But, the eBay parts were crap. The carb lasted about a month. Thanx for the source. I’m ready to tackle the LawnBoy again!
Hey bud, the mic for my GoPro is a PITA. It connects sometimes and craps out randomly. What mic do you use?
Yep I’m fixing to change one on my generator and push lawnmower, keep up the awesome work Captain K
Hey appreciate ya watching
Hi Mike & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Mike & Friends Randy
Thanks randy
My wife and I got a 10hp chipper shredder much like what you have. Thought it would be great but the thing was more of a PITA than it was worth so we wound up selling it. Thanks for sharing.
Every spring you can find tons of free / cheap small engine stuff listed online, everyone leaves gas in them over winter, they gum up, and won't start when they finally decide to use them. Easy carb clean or swap and usually it's back up and running in no time.
Yea,nice Mike 😎😎😎👍👍👍
Appreciate ya watching
My good neighbor picked up a box of Dewalt 18 volt tools at a yard sale last week. A small circular saw, an impact driver and a drill. The one battery with them wouldn't charge all the way and all his other stuff is the red tools from Harbor Freight, so he gave them to me.
I cleaned the contacts on the charger and battery and it charges now, but I also ordered 4 18 to 20 volt Dewalt adapters so I can use my Dewalt 20 volt batteries on them.
The extra adapter will be used to connect to a Crraftsman 18 volt battery shell, so I can use my Dewalt batteries on my Craftsman drill and work light.
I already have an adapter I made to run my 18 volt Black and Decker weed eater, with my 30 Volt Dewalt batteries.
I had to do the 'right thing' and buy 2 more 3 AH Dewalt 20 volt batteries, so I can keep everything charged and running.
That's awesome!
I think you got bar oil on my desk. Thanks for a quick video for my break tonight!!
Yeah, I got some on my eye!
Hi Mike. I got one of those aftermarket carbs for a cheap chainsaw off ebay one time and it bolted in fine but only ran at wide-open throttle. I switched part of the throttle linkage from the original carb and all was fine. It wasn't from the company you mentioned so no bad reflection on them. Just mentioning it because once in a while, an exact replacement isn't really exact. The fix was pretty simple and if a fella had some mechanical aptitude, it wasn't hard to figure out.
great video Mike 👍👍👍👍👍
To late... I already threw away my bridge and Stratton lawnmower engine. Nice video I'll see if I can buy a second hand one.
That’s some great information, thanks Mike👍😎🍮
Easy start 🎉
Mike, Hay, nothing wrong with churning a few bucks to your favor! I feel the same about wood chippers!Great video! Lee (See you in the morning with more Plunge build!)
Good morning sunshine! Glad I found your other channel! Much love from Henderson Ga USA
Keep up the great job, Thanks
You are one lucky guy...many aftermarket carburetors are pure junk.
Every Amazon carb has fired right up. Bought a toro recycler for 30 bucks. Guy said it wouldn't start. Had it for a year. Sure enough, Amazon carb for 20 bucks and 1st pull , started up.
Never had an issue. Most are made in the same factory just put on different boxes with name brand plates and numbers
So many people think you have to go OEM on stuff. Most of the carbs are made by a few companies and they just have a different plate with the brand name on it Most times the OEM part number will cross to a aftermarket parts. I do this with everything. Mower blades are another big one. Dealer wants $100 a set I can get the same blade with there part number stamped in the blade for $45 a set.
Yup, exactly. Same factory line, different boxes
Nothing like fixing something older and broken! Its better than buying something new!
Hello Mike. I have the FB32EC by TroyBilt. I also have the pole saw attachment. I have sharpened the chain once. The thing runs great on non-ethanol gas mix. The two channels have one thing in common and I suppose you know what is. Perhaps, the two channels could meet one day.
Have good days!
The cheap carbs don't last as long from my experience, but they're great for seeing if that's the problem with the engine. I tend to clean the old carb if the replacement works.
I've never had any issues, and a lot of "OEM" carbs are built in the same far around land. I can't find a reason as to why pay the extra for the name on the box. But if it doesn't last as long, a fella can still buy three or four of them for the price of the OEM lol
@@Kleeman1 It might have been the brand I used. It's happened with a snow blower and a chainsaw. I agree - I didn't buy an OEM carb as replacement - just a more expensive after market.
My son buys old a bunch of old not running lawnmowers every fall. He then spends the winter when its too cold to do things out side fixing them up. Sells them in the spring. Gives him something to do and makes a little cash. I called him Karl, but had to explain it since he hasn't seen Sling Blade. 😸
🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the link. I’m sure to use it
Sure is an awful nice video Mr Kleeman
Thank you!
Common sense for changing a carburetor can be as simple as taking a couple pictures before you start to take it apart.
I replaced the carburetor on my Dad’s mower because buying a multipack of float seats cost the same as a replacement carburetor.
Definitely a seat was cheaper but I know I would not remember where I put the seats the next time I needed one of the 9 extra.
One thing I found with the replacement offshore carburetor is that the gaskets were much thinner than an OEM Briggs & Stratton gasket.
I found the same things, same price to just get the whole carb, but thinner gaskets, but I've never had any issues with the gaskets and if I was too worried about it, some gasket material goes a long way
Mike make sure that you are treating those stumps that you cut off otherwise, Tree of Heaver or Ailanthus comes right back.
In Indiana, when you live South of U.S. 30 (or SOT as those who live in NW Indiana call it), you say Tecumsee and when you live North of U.S. 30, you say Tecumsah.
Accurate!
Howdy Captain
Only took a small amount of know how to get them both in working order ! 🤓👍
So you sold one for more than you spent on two? What a deal there Captain. So was the curve weed eater part useful or busted? Either way what a deal.
Did you watch the video 📹 👀 😳 🤔
Fuel in most cases is the issue, ethanol, it’s expensive but canned tru fuel is what the fire department uses and your not changing out carburetor almost because of gunks up. I tried regular non ethanol gas but only last about 30 days or less causing rough running engine
Still doing the trade-up series?
Mike the only way youncould make more videos between your main channel, this one amd patreon is doing a Only Fans one..
Please tell me youre not one there lol
🤣🤣🤣
Maybe we can put our carburetors together yours that doesn't fit in mine. It doesn't fit. Same thing I did. I ordered the wrong one. HIPAA is great
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
So it wouldn't run because the carber ate her?
Oh no
Every bit of garden machinery I own was bought spares or repair for next to nothing!
👌
👍
Your crocs don't fit.
First?
Not loving being banned on the main channel...
thrown in the doghouse, in the youtube jail
