    If a carb is too far gone to rebuild or simply won’t work properly after trying everything I have no problem using a generic replacement. I’ve had very good results with cheap no-name carbs with no further issues afterwards.

    JD S130. Same symptoms tricky throttle/choke adjustments to run. My issue was the "governor blade" or its equal was not working, it was floating, no tension on the vertical wire or arm that connects to carb. At the time I was clueless and frustrated. While had my air handy, I blew out the hard to get/see area on top of the carburetor. Magic, noticed the wire now had a little tension. Engine ran fine. Before had the same symptoms as your oldie but goodie. No skill or knowledge, just dumb luck so I thought I would share. The video inspired me to trouble shoot. THX.

  • @allmagall
    @allmagall 6 місяців тому +1

    The new aftermarket carburetor was so cheap. I chose to get it instead of dismantling and clearing those clogged paths on the old carburetor. I had a lot of luck, switching out a starter and solenoid previously. I'm just about to install my new carburetor and hope for the best. If that doesn't work I should do what I probably should've already done and check the fuel cap. The problem is I don't know how to tell if it's functional or not. Can you help me with that? Oh and I wanted to say thanks for the tip about doubling up the nuts on the one post for the carburetor so I could undo the linkages easily. I was baffled at first, but after watching it three times I understood.

    • @INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE
      @INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE  6 місяців тому

      to check if the cap is venting, disconnect the fuel line at the filter near the right foot pedal. Fuel should drain from the line when you move the end of the hose below the frame due to gravity and pressure differential. Capture the fuel in a container and watch to see if the fuel flow stays "continuous" or if the flow starts to slow down. This would show that the cap is not venting air into the tank. IF it does this, then open the fuel cap and if the flow starts back up, then you'll know the cap needs to be replaced or if you need to put a small hole in it

    If I had already cleaned the original carb and it still didn’t work, I would replace it but with an OEM carb. The reason I would do that is because I work on small engines full time and have had a very hard time with the Chinese knock off carbs. Even if they run fine at first, I guarantee there will be another problem down the road.

    Any ideas on this. I’m up for trying anything at this point. I have a JD x390 with a Kawasaki fs651v it’ll only run for a few seconds to maybe a few minutes but only with the choke on. I’ve put a new carb on it, new fuel pump, all filters are new, fresh oil change. I also drained the tank and put fresh gas in. I blew out all the fuel lines and did a valve job. Yet here I am with it still stalling in seconds. I feel like this issue all started when I hit a wet spot mowing but I could be full of shit there. Any help is definitely appreciated.

      sure, I wonder if the "circuit" for the fuel shut off solenoid is working. Since you replaced the carb, It should have come with a new one at the bottom of the bowl. That's why I'm guessing it has to be the wires or the key switch. Also do you think one of the safeties is tripping and causing the engine to shut off?

      did you install it or someone else? It's a manual choke like the one in the video then? did you make sure that it's was the right carb for your size engine?

    The fuel lines and fuel pump should probably be replaced at that age. Try to run Non-ethanol gas too. Putting ethanol in gas was a stupid idea, pollutes more, get worse gas mileage and deteriorates rubber hoses over time. Bad for cars and small engines.

    i think you should look for a used hood and a back tire and a overall cleanup its worth it now that it runs fine or mabye even make a "restoration" video

      The hood is going to be tough, as for the tire and wheel, I'm not looking forward to trying to make it off.

    I would have tried to fix it again, probably because I am too cheap to spend the money on a new, even if it is a cheap aftermarket. You seam pretty knowledgeable so betting you would have fixed it the 2nd time around. Did you ever figure this out?

    Take off original carb, clean throughly and blow out fuel line back into tank to remove anything restricting free flow - done - runs like a champ - new carb - nope but solution of it is truly dead - stihl chainsaws have that problem after a few years and lost of mesquite corrosion!

      if the carb you replaced was new, and the issue is fuel related then either there's an issue with the fuel pump, clogged filter, swollen Fuel line, or some obstructions in the tank.

      I would get one, I just don't want to use it on the channel, I don't want to show that you need to buy this to clean a carb. Most people will never clean a carb in their life, so for those few people that might do it once or twice, it way not be worth it.

      to confirm fuel flow thru the filter, you'll have to disconnect the line and watch the flow rate.
