What size / range torque wrench?
Got rid of my 3/8 inch sockets a few years ago. I got a master set of 1/2" drive, metric and SAE, deep and shallow; and got SAE and metric impacts to go with. Also 1/4" drill socket drivers, and separate 1/4" impact rated socket drivers.
My 1/4" sockets/ratchets cover all the smaller stuff.
A valve compression clamp. A leak down tester. A spark plug gauge. A mower blade balance.
Wire wheels for drill and dremmel.
Fuel line on the small vise grips was a clever idea, IMO.
This channel totally needs more views and subscribers, great content man!
Bro thanks alot I really appreciate it 🙏
Great tools ….I know your only showing basic tools but when you decide to make a advanced tools video I would recommend showing Valve grinders and seat cutters, Pilots , Surface plate , manometer block off plates for two cycle engines . Etc ….Great video by the way {excellent content }
Thank you Kevin. We will be doing an advanced tools for small engine repair in the near future. We have much more content rolling out very soon!
Hey thank you brother some of those tools I already have and some of them I'm working towards so I appreciate your video on essential tools that you need to start out and then some that you can get later on down the line thanks again and blessings to your brother thank you 🙏🙏
I have a neighbor who gave me a set of torch tip cleaners that work great for cleaning carborator jets
I would recommend using forceps especially for holding fuel lines out on a chainsaw when changing fuel filters so you don’t lose your line back in the tank having to fish it out again with out a filter on can be a pain... and they work great for pinching off fuel lines get a long set they can reach where fingers can’t and for me it’s a huge time saver
Yeah that's true that's a great tool to have. Good recommendation!
I work on quads dirtbikes and snowmobiles and JIS screwdrivers from vessel tools are extremely handy they fit the Japanese fasteners much better then conventional Phillips screwdrivers.
Thanks I'll have to get me some
Two tools you absolutely must have. Probably should be right at the top of the list are a Cylinder Leak Down Tester and a Vacuum/Pressure tester. A compression tester isn’t anywhere near as conclusive as a cylinder leak down tester. Many 4 cycle engines have a compression release which will effect your compression test. For 2 cycle equipment you have to have a vacuum/pressure tester so you can vacuum and pressure test the crankcase and the check valves in the carburetors.
I have both 👍 I showed them in my advanced tools video. Thanks for watching
B r o you nailed that video awesome man! I learned so much just from this video. I'm a rookie mechanic but thankyou for this. You the man!
@18:24 "and boom snap off the bolt right away." I've been there too. 2 hours into a 20 minute job lol
Thank you for the video very helpful!!
New sub here. I been doing this for awhile now. Great vids man. I few years ago I used my credit card with a 500$ limit to get my business started. Since then it grew Soo much and I now have Soo many damn tools. It's great. And the extra money is very good too.!
Hello Twig, I am leaving a 35 dollar a position at a pharmaceutical company that I hate. I believe I have just about all the tools I need to start repairing and tuning small engines and lawn equipment. My thoughts are that I can offer free pickup and delivery , even for small stuff like chainsaws if they are local. It seems that every place is charging a huge amount or not even offering pickup and delivery. I am in the Phoenixville area outside of Philadelphia and it does not seem like there are many places.I found a Ford Ranger that needs some welding on the frame ( I am a welder and have complete mobile welding setups) that I intend to use with a flatbed to pick up and deliver. I have a Subaru Forester and a 5X8 trailer and a 3000 pound winch for now. What did you spend that 500 dollars on and how did you advertise? Thank you. I would love to talk with you sometime. thanks
@@jimmypopp2695I used the $500 for tools I didn't have at the moment. Even though I did have alot of the tools I needed. I also used it for stuff I needed to have on hand like oil (regular and 2 stroke oil) sparkplugs. A dremal with the blade sharpener attachment. Cuz I charge anywhere from $5-10 to sharpen blades. And that paid for it itself real quick. Also my main money maker is my ultrasonic cleaner. That paid for itself the 2nd week I had it. And is still getting me money. The main thing to consider is don't go broke buying the latest and greatest tools. You can always get them after you make money. Also with advertising. For me I work in a factory and word of mouth got around real fast. I also got on vista print and had business cards made. They are cheap and do an excellent job. I leave them at the local bars because alot of the people that go there would rather drink all the time instead of maintaining there mowers and weedeaters and stuff. Hope this helps
@@JGsgarage_unboxings This helps immensely!! I want to build a business where I do not have to work another job. The job I am leaving just is not making enough for me to live on and do what i want. I live out in the country and will have an immense amount of customers if I play my cards right. If I could get and keep all my neighbors I would have more work than I could do and would probably have to hire someone. In addition to that there are several lawn cutting services that if I got their business I would be super happy.I do not have the latest or greatest tools but I have all Fill's advanced tools and almost all the ones he lists for starting out. I also build motorcycles and restore vintage tractors soit makes sense to do this. Thank you. Where are you located?
@@jimmypopp2695 I am in weedville pennsylvania. And just purchased a house with a rather large garage. I am remodeling the garage into my shop. As soon as it gets nice out. I will start doing alot more videos. And I have a bunch of better updated tools to go along with it. I am super pumped. If you haven't checked out my channel you are welcome to
@@jimmypopp2695 oh also. Keep your eyes open for free stuff mowers and weedeaters anything! I have gotten alot of stuff for free that I turned around. Look on Facebook people also sell "junk" lawn care machines for very cheap. But be careful. Cuz it's a gamble. Sometimes machines are Soo far gone you can't fix them so if you cant fix it rape all the good parts off of them and I mean all good parts. Alot of people brought me things that are missing pieces. And I would replace them for a small fee
Excellent video and channel thanks 🙏🏻
That’s a cool looking fish-out gas line tool. I’ve tried searching for it, back can’t find it. Have any more info on it?
A multimeter is a must
one of the best videos I have seen on tools your videos are looking good I am surprised you did not add a leakdown tester in the advanced tools though
These aren't advanced tools 🤫. I guess you can call the tools on the right intermediate tools! I will have an "advanced tools for small engine repair" coming very soon which will showcase my briggs cylinder leak down tester. Thanks Robert!
@@fillslawncare sorry my mistake LOL still a good video
I miss these videos
Only work on my own now. Focusing on other things but I had lots of fun doing those videos.
Side note: had a few people call me a "flake" and other negative things for not doing small engine anymore. It's just the nature of the beast I guess...
With your compression tester, what size is most common on small engines? Most of what I’m finding is m10,12,14,18. I don’t want to waste my money on something that is not going to work.
14 & 18mm will be your most common sizes. Thanks for asking, great question!
very awesome
mantap lanjut bro ..
Get an acetylene torch tip cleaner to clean carburetor jets. Use care when using it because you can enlarge your jets.
Thanks for the tip
correct me if im wrong if you are using a torque wrench you need to chase threads with a tap and die to get correct torques. i just read as much :) just subbed looking forward to more. i love the idea for the fuel shutoff vise grips
I have never had to chase my threads with a die before torquing. That's just me. Thanks for watching!
@@fillslawncare shows what i know lol
Nice video interesting
Thank you. Have a great day my friend 👍🏻
Where can I find a pressure tester?for testing chainsaw carburetor!
Link should be in the description
Do you use a blade balance?
Quarter inch socket deep, well three-quarter inch socket deep well and a half inch socket jeep well meaning the long ones and that’s to takeoff the blades on your lawnmower half-inch.
Compression tester, pressure tester (to check and see if the carburetor has leaking gas)1/4”Rachet,-
Where can you get the cylinder stop or piston stop?
thanks for this. curious what size torque wrench is most common? 3/8 in? what about the torque range? thanks
3/8" will do about any fastener on a small engine. As far as range, I honestly couldn't tell you. I know many companies measure using inch pounds instead of ft pounds.
What size / range torque wrench?
Hi ,where can I get that carburator preassure tester
Check out my video on it, I have the link in the description of that pressure test carb video
A quarter inch ratchet a 3/8 ratchet antiquing off blades on the lawnmower a half inch ratchet.
Cupcake pan works great also and can separate things
I want you to make a video for high school / grads, and show them how to make money even with part time work and still have FUN.
G-son is not too motivated, he does enough to get by, But is motivated for cash$$$$$. But in the real world the 40yr job with gold watch is gone so now you need to have 2/3 side jobs to make ends meet right? Also why you need to be bi-lingual in today's markets.
What ever happened to Small Engine Nation??¿??????
Wondering the same thing. No records of it on UA-cam like it was deleted.
