Good video. In a pinch, the main jet can be taken out and cleaned without removing the carb. This solves 90+% of fueling problems. Remove the bowl and find a flat blade 1/4" screw driver bit that's about an inch long. You can use a bench grinder to get the shape that works, and use a 1/4" wrench to turn it.
FYI. Shutting off the fuel and running the engine until it stops does not eliminate all fuel from carb. The float bowl will still have gas in it. You need to drain the bowl using the drain screw.
Very helpful. Got mine cleaned up in less than an hour. Thanks.
Excellent Video, very detailed and helped me clean up my carb on my 27-year old HR214. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for watching!
I’m a small lawn mower repair technician, and first time I’ve owned this HR214 , didn’t know how the carburetor gasket line up.
Thanks for watching, all the best!

The plate sitting on the front of the carb, was it flat? I have mine apart and the plate has a slight curve to it.
It is flat.
@@davidgpo thanks
Quite sure Gasoline breaks down Silicone, gunky residue. But very good Video 👍
I believe that you are correct. Thanks!
