    I used to manufacture tools one of the items was a plastic magnetic ring that went around a screwdriver. I called it a Stayzon®️ that would be very helpful when inserting a screw into the carburetor.
    You can also get larger ones that will work with sockets or I’ve even used them when drilling steel to collect metal shavings.
    I enjoy your videos!

    I have a 1984 Sears lawn mower that I refuse to let die. That Tecumseh is an amazing engine and just keeps working. Much larger oil capacity, gas capacity and power compared to the Sears Honda I bought to replace it (but only used for a couple of weeks because its under powered). The mower base is mainly made out of pop rivets and sheet metal at this point, but it still does the job. Had fuel delivery issue and took carb apart (first time in 40 years). I was cleaning it with compressed air and blew the needle seat somewhere in my shop so the job grew from a quick clean to a carb rebuild. Although needle/seat/gasket kits are cheap online ( you can get multiple kits for under $20 - no idea if they are any good), I just went to my local supplier and got one for $10 CAD. Thanks for the guidance. Much appreciated - especially the orientation of the seat. I just reassembled it this afternoon, flushed the tank out and that engine started right up and purrs better than it has in the 24 years since I inherited it from the previous house owner.

    Outstanding video. The detailed commentary and close-up video was especially helpful for me to reassemble my neighbor's snow blower that I messed up by removing the bowl to drain old gas when the float pin fell out. I then lost the needle valve & spring also. Using your video I purchased the kit from a local small engine repair shop and "carefully" replaced the missing parts and put it back together.
    Thank You for making a video with enough details to show and explain how things (should) work.

    • @JohnsonsSmallEngines
      @JohnsonsSmallEngines  Рік тому +2

      Thank you! I agree the older engines are better. If you can get non ethanol fuel that is the key in keeping the carburetors in good condition after rebuilding. Look at Aspen fuel online and read up on it. It is a great product.

    Great video it’s Fourth of July I was out in the yard for hours taking everything off of my 24 inch Toro snowblower which has identical carburetor. Last we never had issues with it starting due to the primer button I have all the parts including a new carburetor by Luck,But I was very interested in rebuilding mine also so this is the identical carburetor that I have and I think I want up rebuilding mine and still keeping it adding the new one on the snowblower so this is a very good detailed video that you made I enjoyed watching it I’m learning about the carburetor that I have on my snowblower

  • @LWhaples
    @LWhaples 5 місяців тому

    Thank you for this great tour! It pointed out a couple mistakes I made rebuilding one that was almost the exact same. Mine has a metal float and an idle needle. Was having a leak which seems to be fixed but I'm still having an issue where it seems to drink up the gas in the bowl and kill the engine faster than new fuel is delivered. Even though it flows fine with the bowl off and the float dangling. I might need to play with the float adjustment some more. We'll see if a ROP shop carb does any better.

  • @matthewjablonski6139

    Certainly the art of carburetor rebuilding is slowly dying and being replaced by cheap foreign knock-off replacement parts. Nice to see this video being thorough. While foreign components may work fine, those foreign parts are typically not built to the same tolerances as the OEM parts and usually do not last very long. I have been rebuilding carburetors for 55 years since I was 12 years old (just for fun) so I can share a few thoughts. First there is no single correct way to do a rebuild. Use whatever tools you may think you need keeping in mind that nothing should be unreasonably forced. Soaking a carb body in mineral spirits or kerosene will help loosen gunk build up in older seldom used carburetors. Compressed air is a great way to clear orifices in the main valve and carb body, but be careful not to blowout a seat that you are not replacing. Sometimes a rebuild will seem too simple and you might second guess if you did it correctly. Trust yourself and your work. Carburetors are meant to be repaired fairly easily. The engineering is built into the designs. All you are doing is a refresh. Wear eye protection especially when using chemicals, and wear gloves especially if you have allergies, skin conditions, etc. If you put a good hand lotion on before you work it will help your hands clean up afterwards and protect your skin a bit better. Enjoy the time and the dying art. Its rewarding.

    • @JohnsonsSmallEngines
      @JohnsonsSmallEngines  Рік тому

      The surging is a blocked port. You will need to rebuild it again. I would also check the fuel tank for debris. If it doesn’t work the next cleaning, you will need to replace it. Make sure your you also have fresh gas in the tank.

      Glad to hear! You may want to look into buying Aspen4 fuel if you can get it. It will keep you from having gas going bad and having to rebuild your carburetor. Check it out online and read up on it. It’s not for everybody but it is 92 octane no ethanol very clean burning, and will help with easier starts and you’ll be able to store in your machine for up to two years. You must only use this by itself and do not mix with other gas. I cannot recommend this fuel enough. Thanks for watching my video. Please share my channel with your friends to help it grow!

      If it is a non adjustable carburetor? Sometimes it may take 5 to ten minutes if run time to start running good. The carburetor needs to warm up and that is difficult to due when it’s freezing outside.

    It is a '9' Series Carburetor (9004 L6R) and I am trying to get a service kit and '172' replacement fixed jet, but nobody in the UK seems to have heard of it.

      When you prime the carburetor, it is designed to be pumped up into the throat of the carburetor. If you over prime it, it will flow out of the front of the carburetor and seam like it is leaking. It may just be over primed.

    Hi Brad,
    Thanks for the video very useful!
    I'm struggling with a Tecumseh carb off of a HM80 engine ( Canadiana 1032, see it on my channel). She is pretty rough. Missing low speed jet, missing the welch plug inside.
    My problem is none of the available rebuild kit's seem to fit this one, as it has copper needle housing and rubber tip needle, the main nozzle is not colored plastic but copper and the choke spring is in the center not on the side. Have you seen this before, do you know which kit does it need ? I'm in Europe to make it harder to get parts for these old things. I plan to use the low speed jet of the adjustable carb as I don't have too much option here and the new welch (bigger) plug does not stay in the groove, I either turn something on the lathe or stays missing. What do you think ? Thanks a lot!

      It sound like someone must have replaced that carburetor with a after market carburetor. No original Tecumseh carburetor that fits on that engine came with a brass seat as you mentioned. I will not be able to help you with that carburetor but I can give you the part number to a new carburetor for that engine. The model and spec number you gave me worked and I was able to look up parts. You as well should be able to go to a Tecumseh parts look up online and find this information also. The OEM (Original Equipment Manufacture) part number is 632334A. You can order a new one online. There are many aftermarket carburetors for cheap so you will need to pick one. You can also find the OEM one and they will be around 3 times the cost of the aftermarket.
