Hi Mick I'm new to the channel, and new to titan multitool, I've just bought a second hand machine and I was thinking of doing a service on it, until this moment I had no knowledge, but now I'm more than happy to give it a go, you've probably saved me a load of money and we all like saving, thanks Mick great video. 10 stars from me.
Here is my channel wish list if you would like to show some support in purchasing some tools or spare parts, it is gratefully appreciated www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/13BO7QKGAZZV2/ref=nav_wishlist_lists_2?_encoding=UTF8&type=wishlist

Thank you so much - I have a new allotment with truly gigantic overgrowth but no tools and no £ - found a discarded, barely used Titan multi-tool in the back of the shared shed with missing parts, not starting, not running any attachments. Found you. I learned how the components work, how to troubleshoot, change and tune. I was so intimidated and so desperate - now I am neither after only about £10 for the oil and parts, my landscaping dreams are in full swing 🙂. Never touched one before let alone fixed anything with a motor. Thanks again, Lady Tek-Li.
1st Try the adjustment screw at the end of the video with an ‘A circle’ tuning tool. Got mine working at full revs straight away. Also the strip down of the carb was very good and easy to follow 👍🏻 thanks for the uploads dude very helpful 🤟🏻👊🏻
mick, have you got a link to the diaphragm set you used please? i have a qualcast te30h i need a new one for, , or do you know where i could get a complete carb ?
Hi Mick, great video and nice to see you doing a two stroke. A couple of pointers. I always change the fuel first if it is priming okay. Personally. On that Chinese machine, with a single ‘High’ trim screw and only being 3 years old. I would have tried adjusting the jet screw first. If that fails. Check the turn setting. Remove the needle and squirt a bit carb cleaner in there and allow to dwell for a few minutes. Try and then adjust. If that fails. I would plonk in my ultrasonic tank. For a session. Trust me. I have been doing this for many years. I only use neat WD40 in the ultrasonic tank. Pop the carb in. Prime it submerged, so it is full. And set it away. After half an hour. Pump the primer a few more times to refresh. And set away for another 30 mins. Or until it gets to about 80’C. I find this works most of the time. Generally taking 2T carburettors to bits ends in gasket tearing. So I only do as a last resort, with a rebuild kit to hand. But this method normally works. Trust me! My tank takes about 2L. A gallon of WD is about £28 Used to be cheaper. I only refresh a couple times a year. Filter the used WD and use in a spray bottle to lube allsorts, so it doesn’t go to waste. Cheers David.
I bought a set of those carb screwdrivers years ago then I got a Hyundai jobbie in for repair and found out there's a whole new bunch of adjusters in the game and had to buy another different set, I've now got about 15 different types 😮
In the instruction manual for many of these throw away machines, it says after 5 tank full of fuel to get the carb tuned, but you need tools that are shaped like Pacman, D or double D to adjust the mix instead of a Philips or flat blade, so people just chucked them as they couldn't adjust them. I picked up many like that and a quick tweak and it runs sweet. 😁
Titan seems to be prone to that, I've had a few titan tools but on my brushcutter the exact same thing happened,but I didn't bother me hole to fix it 😂luckily it had warranty.
Mick do you know where I can get the replacement gaskets for a Titan strummer , I am looking for the black large gasket which fit at the rear of carburettor. J B
Hi changed carb on my titan strimmer (as other one was buggered) for a new one off amazon. Had it running sweet one pull started. Left for a couple of hours now wont start at all nothing. any suggestions.
Nice job Mick! I am a bit surprised you didn't change the priming bulb since you were into the carb that far. Perhaps I'm changing them unnecessarily. What's a good "rule of thumb" about changing them?
Hi, which is the tool pack I need to tune the carburettor which cuts out. I’ve seen SUNREEK tool sets on Amazon I don’t know which set I need. Thankyou.
It's the pack man one I believe.. Hippotech 12 PCS Carburetor Adjustment Tool with Acircle Scredrivers for Common 2 Cycle Carburator Adjusting Small Engine Carb Tune up Adjusting Tool amzn.eu/d/gpzYCo3
Is that a honda hrx I see there mick?,I was wondering if I could pick ya brain mick I got a stihl 024 chainsaw and I've fixed it up with fuel line,filter,its hemorrhaging oil so I'm gunna change the oil pipes tomorrow,but it revs nice but as soon it goes to 8000rpm it takes off right up to 14 000 rpm and sounds like it's gunna destroy itself,I've got tachometer on it is it a case of fine tuning the high-speed screw or could it be that the high speed jet is wrecked
Mick I've changed the carb on my Titan but oddly the choke doesn't seem to do anything. It's a bugger to start and when it does run enabling the choke doesn't bog the machine down. Any ideas?
Hi mick, hope you’re well. I’ve fitted a new, OE carb to my customers balmoral. It now flows fuel through overflow pipe constantly. I’ve checked & cleaned jets etc. this’ll probably be familiar to you, any ideas please? Thanks
@@themowerman hi, thanks v much. Fixed it now, tested float manually with bowl off, works fine. Put bowl back on carefully, seal is tricky to seat. Turned fuel on, slight leak, tapped side of bowl, float ‘released’ no leaks.. Ha ha!

Just done another for a neighbour Mick. You really are a superstar. Thank you, Joe❤

mine had a new carb tuned it still the same needs throttle on to start it leave it to idle for abit then dies
clean the exhaust arrestor.

Hi. Can I ask what is your fuel consumption per hour on this trimmer? I think mine uses way too much....
Ohh it's not a lot...

Why did you go straight for the carb kit and not try the high and low settings on the carb?

Check the HT as it sometimes strips near the flywheel

Once those titans start making screaming noises then you know it’s gonna be kaput.
Nice? Cutting a slot always a way with the mickster.
There is always a way mate
I forgot to say it’s the Titan 4 in 1 TT5MTP26 .Thankyou.
Are these heavy Mick ? I'm thinking of getting one for the hedge cutter to instead of my sgs 52cc multi tool as way to heavy for the hedge cutter
I've got this Titan and yes it's heavy.
It's not too bad considering what else I'd available in the price range.. some of the others like parker are much heavier
I think if you from beginning do what you done one the end was good enough to run the engine properly, but then video will take a minute. 😅
If you ring titan up tgey will send you a carb, fuel pipes,adjustment tool, coil for free if you havent had one before
Send me the number please...
Really sucks when a Titan bogs down...😢
Bogging down 👇👎 that is the bad thing to have happen to your weed eater but it is going to be running again after you get it fixed up
