Is it possible that if the carb gasket was bad water could get into the oil A mechanic that did my head gasket which didn’t fix water in oil issue claimed the carb side gasket could also be the issue I don’t see how or why water could go in on the carb side??
I’ll be honest engines aren’t my strong point but I know a little to get basic things done. It’s seems unlikely a carb gasket would cause water in oil. It’s mostly likely head gasket or a corroded/bad intake manifold. No water in your fuel tank ??
I consult you I have a 50 hp honda I changed all the jets and when I accelerate the engine trembles and I take 3 turns out of each carburetor that I would have to do
have a question,,, just today I reinstalled my freshly cleaned carb set, replaced most of the jets etc, now I feel I should mention Im not a novice and have worked on engines most of my life , Im now retired and in my sixties , so not ny first rodeo, anyway,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, just installed the carb set,, I have to admit I did not change the intake manifold , but felt it would be ok, and hope Im wrong,,,lol I also need to mention this engine was running perfecttly I have over 150 psi in all cyl and used it on a regular basis with no issues except some carb quirks which I had hoped to fix with this job. when done with the install , I fired up the engine and to my surprise was running on only 2 cyl, the top and the center not sure which number that is,, but the lower one was dead, had spark, has compression, but somehow when I removed the spark plug the engine was pushing water through it, and also my engine oil is a milk shake,, this all happened in about 45 seconds, wtf,,,, I guess the intake gasket caused this, it explains why water is being sucked in , but the oil??? any thoughts on this?? thanks Bill
Hard to diagnose without having seen the work being done. You didn’t have that issue prior to doing the jets and seals ? I would start with the intake gasket and check and recheck everything was installed properly. Head gasket ?
@@BackyardBoatworks thanks, no , there was no issue engine ran like a clock, doubt its the head gasket,, Im starting with the intake which should be here shortly,, thanks , Have a Merry Christmas
ok just want to follow up on my above issue with reinstalling the carb set. First of all, I have to stress no matter how much you think your intake gasket is ok, just change it,, what happened to me, thank God was fixable read my question above, A slight imperfection on the lower part of my intake gasket caused the lower carburetor to suck coolant from the engine into the carb manifold , and shut down that cylinder and not only that, it somehow filled the engine crank with water, and thats not good, I resolved it quickly with making a new gasket and problem solved, but it could have been catastrophic ,,, all because I thought it would be ok, I was dead wrong,,, shit happens,, the good news is the engine and carbs are performing well, again great vid, and your video was instrumental to me understanding those carbs a little better, I also installed nice racors to each tank and I have two, so I dont plan on having any funk going it the carbs,, and never use ethanol fuel, I go out of my way to buy only NON ethanol,
hello and thanks for the video. i have a bf30d and i have to do the 100 hour service. on the manual there is written "check-adjust carburator linkage". at what part do i have to look exactly and what do i have to keep in mind?" thanks in advance
I am sure they are just referring to the spring loaded arms on each of the carbs. I highly doubt that you would have any issues with those. Just do a visual inspection and you should be fine.
Thanks for taking the time to put this up here! I'm off to Part 2...
Thanks

Why have you cleaned them so much in short time. use non ethanol gas
Thanks I did mention that in my video.
thank's for your video, very informative and excellent editing i must say.
Thanks
Thank you!
Good job with the video and extremely helpful....thanks !
Thanks.
You mentioned you were having issues with cold start valve and fixed with a spring. What issue were you having?
Hi there I've the same motor and I'm getting water in the oil could this be caused by water leaking from manifold?
I consult you I have a 50 hp honda I changed all the jets and when I accelerate the engine trembles and I take 3 turns out of each carburetor that I would have to do
Helpful thanks. 👍🏼
You bet!

Thank you!
This is very informative and excellent editing. Keep up the format you will have millions of subscribers.
haha if only it was that easy. I need to find time to make more videos ;)
How did you get that fuel line (the one you forgot about) back on?
You can slide it back on just as you go to reinstall the carb assembly. Use needle nose to push it back in place and then attack the carb assembly.

Damn. Glad you had the knowledge to notice the issue quickly. Most people would just keep running it hoping it would go away.
