that "knock knock knock" at the beginning freaked me out! lol

[@robertrivasarroyo1174]

The most thorough video I've ever seen!!!

[@watermanone7567]

Thanks for the video. In my shop if you don't have the seat installation tool, use the blunt end of a drill bit that fits the hole to press in the seat. Thanks

[@SteveWillinger]

My lawnmower started 2nd pull! THANK YOU!

[@frankie7508]

Really great video with step-by-step instructions and illustrations. Which is why it was so good. The only recommendations I would have made was to replace the air filter element, which is filthy as shown, and install a gas shut off valve.

[@Flyfishntn1]

Very good video. One tip. The bowl nut is also the metering jet. If it is clogged all the kits in the world will not fix your problem. That’s the first thing to check.

[@ianmac86]

[@garykite5]

[@greg_54]

Thank You

[@tneal3042]

Thank u for the video. My mower starts/stalls. As I was cleaning my carb I noticed there was no needle seat. Does the needle seat have a factor in the carb operation?

[@JasonJayJJ1]

Thanks to the EPA for making carbs with brass jets and eliminating adjustable opening screws on carbs so that everyone's carbs get clogged with 10% ethanol fuel. And now the EPA wants to add more carb-clogging ethanol by increasing to 15% ethanol.

[@jdsnapp]

The base has gasket on back that seals primer air flow. If gasket isn't proper it will leak and make primer inop. I added a very light amout of non hardning gasket sealer to that area.

[@Jim-ie6uf]

Use some lock tight on the butterfly screw, or it may come out one go into the combustion chamber.

[@antoniocorchado7919]

Would the ultrasonic cleaner ruin the seat?

[@bananahands82]

What do you use in the ultrasonic cleaner, just water?

[@reginacarmel3475]

Yes, wondering this too? Any answers?

[@larryhall7998]

Who works on Lawn mower Engine with a white shirt on?
