Kobalt and Greenworks 80V Compatibility
มุมมอง 2084 หลายเดือนก่อน
In this video, I show a visual representation of why the cobalt 80 V batteries and green works 80 V batteries are not cross compatible. Here is the link to the Kobalt Trimmer that can accommodate various other attachments . After making this video, I ended up buying another one e of these to replace my broken one because I was so impressed with how it has performed: amzn.to/3VxV9ZS

I bought a John Deere from a guy who replaced the carburetor and couldn’t get it to stop surging and running poorly. This video shows the process for trying a little trick to get it fixed.
Schwinn Kempo 700cc
มุมมอง 30K5 ปีที่แล้ว
My amateur opinion on the Schwinn Kempo 700cc Men’s Bicycle. I am sure professional riders would have a lot to say negative about this bike. I ride casually, with my family, and know very little. From this perspective, this bike is my favorite bike I’ve ever owned.

Armadillo Catch

Finally catching the elusive armadillo. If you turn the volume up, you can hear some of the struggle that took place as he jumped out of his hole and ran towards safety.
Yep.... Line Primer.... :)
Great job. I'm in Alabama, so similar climate. Why did you acid wash the concrete before painting?
@@skip21al when concrete dries, it develops a layer on the top that will impact the adhesion of the paint, if I understand correctly. An acid wash is necessary to remove that film and lightly etch the new concrete in preparation for the paint
Get a bottle of Seal Master Stripe Rite and put it on after you tape but before you paint the lines next time. It will fill the voids and make sharp tape lines.
All the places I've played the non volley zone was painted a different color. Why did you choose not to do that?
@@boosebill thanks for this question. I’ll say that having a different color court is not very common where I live so I don’t see it very often. I have seen them, but I wonder if it is more of a regional norm? Nevertheless, on my court there isn’t a very clean way to have a separate colored no volleyball zone due to the basketball key.
You did this by yourself with the rented excavator and skid steer?
@@hoanbui7003 No. I hired out everything but the paint and sod.
It sucks that we can’t even buy new parts with confidence that they’ll work :/
I know its a few years old but what was the approx cost?
@@tonybell9201 The concrete and grading was $13k. The plant was another $700 for material and I did it myself. The basketball hoop was $600 and the light was around $300. Tree removal was around $5k. All in all, right around $20k.
@@shirtandtieguy6768 great job!
Does anyone actually shoot basketball? Seems like the light would get in the way since you said it's there most of the time.
@@networth00 we play basketball all the time. The light hangs quite high over the hoop and has not been hit by a basketball yet.
@@shirtandtieguy6768 Did you pour the concrete yourself? How much was the whole thing? I want one in my yard soooo bad. It looks like a dream!
@@networth00 I hired out the concrete and that portion was $13,000. All in I was around $20k, but I had $4500 worth of tree clearing to do. Did the paint myself. Price included the basketball hoop, but I got a smokin deal on it.
@@shirtandtieguy6768 Best part is you have all that shade on the court. I'm in South Florida and nobody can play during the day in the summer because of the heat. You place is so nice. Great job!!!
@@networth00 thanks so much! It isn’t perfect, but it gets used frequently. Definitely the best upgrade we have done at the house. I hear you about South FL. I was in Miami Shores last month and went to play at a park around 5pm. I thought I was going to melt or combust. Very hot.
Where did you get paint?
@@chadbolen7663 Sherwin Williams rounded it up for me.
Looks pretty good but without some fencing I would think you are chasing a lot of balls.
@@valpro99 it’s actually not bad at all. The grass stops the balls fairly quickly
Positive to broom finish is that people won’t slip when planting feet outside the painted court
wow what a great job. looks fantastic. imho no need for a fence with the grass, it looks too good just blending in with no obstruction
Looks great
For the lines call sport master and they sell line primer. It seals the lines and makes the lines super sharp. Also if you buy sport masters paint they sell acrylic resurfacer and you apply it with a squeegee, it will make the surface smooth. It uses silica sand. It also couple thousand dollars but it lasts much longer and it will look much better.
Noyce!
How much did you spend
The concrete and grading was $13k. The plant was another $700 for material and I did it myself. The basketball hoop was $600 and the light was around $300. Tree removal was around $5k. All in all, right around $20k.
Great Vid thanks
Right off the bat, I can see that a person can get hurt by stepping off any of the concrete area onto the grass when chasing down a ball or trip when coming onto the cement after being on the grass.
Great observation. It hasn’t happened yet, but definitely something to consider.
Also, someone might skin their knee if they run and fall down on the court. Should have made it out of foam and recommend all players wearing knee, elbow, and wrist pads, full gloves and helmets, and playing inside an inflatable bubble. Think of the children!
Helpful! Appreciate it!
Thank you for sharing!
Where is the video about the pin and the carburetor? I want to try that before I ask my neighbor for his old carburetor.
There are a couple comments where guys are getting stuck on ‘Get one from a neighbor’. That is not what I recommend as the solution, it just happened to be what worked for me. The take away is to buy a quality OEM replacement and not trust a new carburetor just because it is new. Here is the link to the video about the carburetor pin. th-cam.com/video/IHp-ZrtFfks/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
My money is on the intake manifold. Air infiltration after the carb/ before the cylinder will reduce your fuel ratio, that's why it ran better when you choked it manually.
$199 at Walmart???? I paid more than that from my Walmart and ordered it on line. WTF
I didn't understand this videovregarding the pin
The problem with the Chinese carbs is the pilot jet. With no load, the pilot jet isn't supplying enough fuel. These carbs are most likely jetted for a smaller engine. Under load, the carb pulls fuel through the main jet and it smoothes out. Either try your luck with another Amazon carb, or buy a set of micro drill bits and slowly open the pilot jet until it runs better
So buying a new carburetor is NOT the answer, but rather the solution is to get one from the neighbor. What do I do if my neighbor doesn't have an extra carburetor for my to try on my mower?
As I said in the video, just make sure you are buying a quality replacement product. A new carburetor doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a fully functioning carburetor, is the lesson I learned from this experience.
Or move. Maybe the new neighbor will have an old carburetor?
My wife got me a Kempo and i love it as well. here is a video of me riding it On the road to ........ th-cam.com/video/1NgqdDQ2b2A/w-d-xo.html
What are the dimensions on the bottom bracket?
Wonderfull
OMG everything new !! What was the cause? the carburator ?
Yep. The new carburetor was bad. A neighbor had one sitting in a tool box that he pulled off of his grandmas mower and it works perfect!
Man, pull all the extras off, put SPD pedals on there, slam the headset, and you got a nice a** bike!
Don't think just get it
My john deer 22hp. Surges under load and at idle, sometimes it just stops running. I can run mower approx. 5 min then it starts surging then dies.
I know this is old but typically that is an idle/pilot jet issue on the carb causing surging. Bottom line is the carb needs cleaned and jets cleaned too. If it dies after 5-10 minutes that is usually a fuel supply issue. Check flow from the tank to the carb.
Maybe your neighbor has a spare carb...🤣😂🤣
What brand of carb did you put on it to get it to finally run right?
Good question. I don’t know. A neighbor had one sitting in his garage that he took off of another riding mower. Honestly, a new direct replacement should do the trick. I think it was a fluke that this brand new carb was defective.
Its clear it starving for gas ,,,,,Clean the carb , that should fix it ,,if not next step is new carb .
How tall are the tires? I’m 6’1” wondering if this will work for me.
I am 6' and it fits well.
I have a downgraded version, the Schwinn Pathway and the frame is about 18" with 28×1 size wheels. I'm 6'0 and the frame seems to small for me. I would rather a 19" frame with 29er wheels. I'm not sure what size frame the bike in this video is.
I love my Kempo, have well over 20,000 miles on it including riding the full Erie Canal Bike Trail with it. Aside from flat tires (inevitable) the only problem I ever had with it was the bottom bracket wore out after a few thousand miles so I had to replace that. Otherwise fantastic bike for the price. Great entry level touring bike.
