Thanks for watching. This blower would sometimes start but mostly when it warm outside. But if it was cold, it didn't want to start.
This video is meant as entertainment, always practice safety.
My last (and I do mean LAST) Troy-bilt mower was like that. It was running fine when I stored it but would not prime when I was trying to get it running the last time. It was the air box/primer gasket leaking and that's where I had to surround the air passages with #2 Permatex. Then it started fine but the self propel quit as well as me and they all went down the road. I went myself for a week too later on. I know people cuss battery stuff all the time BUT when it comes time when you turn over + 3/4 a century and have added health hazards you acquire while trying to do the right thing and aren't really able to fool with much, an instant start and run rig is a very handy thing to have. Good fix on the Husky. Blessings 2 U!
Bought an electric sno blower last year, expensive yes but no gas, pulling ropes or choking/priming plus the wife and daughter will use it👍
My Sweetie has a Stihl battery 20 inch hand mower (self propelled) and I have a 42 inch Craftsman battery zero turn BUT I also have a 21 inch Snapper and 42 inch Craftsman gas jobs and 2 gas blowers when the battery jobs konk out but she has a Kobalt batter trimmer, blower and hedge clipper and a Stihl battery 4 inch trim saw. I've got a DeWalt trimmer but we just do our own place. PLENTY of tools. . @@gillgetter3004
you got that right, they will typically start and run when you want them to
nice buy
You did another wonderful job. I have learned a lot from your videos and really appreciate you!
You are so welcome
Great fix on that blower
Thank you, I appreciate it.
My mother has an identical machine with over two thousand hours on it. I.
Put a new carburetor on it last week and installed a spark arrester Delete package a few years ago. Other than that it still runs great. You just have to take care of things
nice and I agree
My Kawasaki Brute Force has similar issue when starting in cold weather and it needs constant idle adjustments. The carburetor is equipped with idle knob on a flex cable for easy reach and the performance is dictated by engine temperature and ambient temperature and it takes time to get used to while annoying at the same time.
That seems to be a lot of work, but it looks like you've got under control
I put a really cool modification on my Honda HRN216 mower today. Those have the GCV 170 engine on them, but today I took a GCV 200 off of a junk Honda HRX217 and mounted it onto my HRN mower. So now I should get some more power out of the mower now that it’s got a bigger engine on it.
hey nice job
The tape you asked about is most likely construction sealing tape used to cover the seams (gaps) between 4'x8' sheets of either foam board or OSB sheathing that's used as siding underlayment for the exterior walls of various dwellings.
thank you for the information
I see after your first round of repairs and the test start the blower looked to be dumping fuel somewhere on the underside of the carb. Is that where you made your own gasket?
I don't see what you're talking about? What's the time stamp thanks
I have a 9month old Husqvarna blower 130bt it starts fine and will run in choke but then bogs down and quits when I turn the choke off… does that sound like the carburetor? The filter is super clean, I’ve only used it maybe 20 times. (Bought new). I’m thinking I screwed up and used a 40:1 instead of a 50:1 2stroke oil to mix in my gallon of gas 🤷♀️
Either the carb has been less effective at delivery fuel, in your 20 uses, which I'm not sure, how much time has passed. And my experience is, changing from the 2 mixtures, will have almost not effect on how the machine runs. I would try adjusting the L screw on the carb for more fuel first. But I do think your fuel system and carb needs to be serviced
I think they have some kinda spray that you can use on them gaskets sort of a way to recondition them I will look a little further and get back to you ? Got a few more years on that now nice job 👍
hey that's an idea.
currently have a Ryobi BP blower that had the exact same issue. the 2 bolts backed out of the intake manifold.
seems to happen a lot
I had a motorbike which was like that,I think that it was worn piston rings which caused the problem .
When I was doing my apprenticeship my manager had trouble getting a Ryobi line trimmer going which was getting repaired under warranty,I found out that it had a torn carburettor to cylinder insulator base gasket so I ordered a new one, fitted it & it started right away.
We had all of Ryobis petrol lawn equipment dumped onto us, Ryobi didn't really know themselves like they didn't have equipment to test for crankcase leakage & my manager was an electrical mechanic by trade,he rewound a few electric motors in his time !
at least you were able to figure it out
The tape looks like "Gorilla Tape " Super strong stuff
thank you
Great fix…😊
thank you!
My harbor freight chainsaw,Sometimes I starts it in warm weather and stay running sometimes not .Sometimes Start in cold weather won't stay running and I haven't tried to adjust anything yet Thank you for the video
thank you for sharing
Hey home garage, I just picked up a Honda power washer for cheap, would you recommend using a pump protector? I’ve heard it recommended before but wanted to get your thoughts on it if it’s worth the premium price.
yes it's worth it, just follow the directions on the bottle. As for the brand, it really doesn't matter to me. I'll leave that up to your budget
@@HomeGaragechannel ok thanks for the reply I appreciate it
What do you think about mods? Like a bigger engine on a trimmer or mower
I think it's fine, however there could be some complications such as weight to overcome.
Hey bro what's up? This backpack blower looks great for being a decade old. I think that if I have to get a backpack blower for myself it would be overkill since my handheld blower works perfectly and get the job done around my home done quickly.
nothing wrong with a good handheld
@@HomeGaragechannel exactly bro.
Backpack fix job good😊
Yes, to your question. Have a Craftsman snowblower that works fine when I work on it to get ready for winter but in very cold weather, it doesn't stay started and then won't restart. I use a back up blower and have done all I can to get this problem blower working. New carb, gaskets, plug, correct fuel, replaced gas lines from tank and carb, store it properly and still it has issues. Compression is good 135psi, when it runs, it runs well. It is over 10 years old and started acting up about three years ago. Still play with it but still not satisfied. Not sure what else I can do. Yes, I did adjust the carb but really cold weather is problematic. Thanks again for your video tutorial. Always learning!!
have you checked the valve lash?
Hello Home garage how are you feeling you make very interesting videos
feeling fine, however the voice is taking some time to get back to normal
What can calls one of these blowers to run a little slow and be slightly down on power?
blocked spark arrestor screen, restricted air flow, too much fuel, and a carb that's not opening all the way
QUE BUEN VIDEO....MUY BUENA LA FORMA DE EXPLICAR COMO REVISAR EL CARBURADOR Y OTRAS PARTES IMPORTANTES DE ESTE TIPO DE MAQUINAS PEQUEÑAS....MUCHAS GRACIAS POR SU IMFORMACION
Gracias. Lo aprecio.
What is the cleaner you are using to clean all the dirt off?
I'm using the only degreaser from Harbor Freight
I have a 2012 bt130 backpack blower I put a new carburetor and new coil on it new spark plug it'll crank and then immediately die can you help me with this
sure thing, did you install a new gasket between the carb and engine and if so did you check to make sure it was in the correct orientation? You might have to adjust the new carb to work with the engine too
@Home Garage Channel
Surely you asked your friend what kind of tape that was... but I want to see if I guess correctly?... 20Mil Vinyl Electrical Tape... How did I do? Peace
I never did ask them so I'm still not sure.
Was something leaking around the 9:50 mark of the video?
you mean when it was running? it was water blowing from an area that would holding it. I saw the same thing.
@@HomeGaragechannelI see it at right around 9:50 mark. Below/behind the carb something looks to be dripping in the background onto the top of the fuel tank
Dust after the carb .
Is like sandpaper in the motor. It will wear it out quick
you got that right
The tape I have is Gorilla Duct tape & looks just like it😊
thank you !
Looks like either gorilla or t rex tape from dollar general. My 4 wheeler is that now. Still haven't been able to look at it yet since i had a cyst removed from my left wrist
how long will the recovery take?
@@HomeGaragechannel about another 2 to 3 weeks
If thats a mid size whats a small one look like
not from this brand but they have 25cc backpack blowers too
👍🏻
These days I turn work like this away. I take of broken machines, not dirty and neglected machines, except if I find it in the trash.
good choice
Interesting. There was nothing wrong with it, other than the owner taking it apart, and being unable to get it back together properly. That tape looked like black electrical tape, but I've never seen any that wide.
that's what I was thinking too.
It may have been “gorilla tape”.
Flex tape?
I think you might be right
@@HomeGaragechannel sweet
Where do you live can you fix my echo blower
I am not taking any work right now
Those carbs are cheaper then a kit
correct
1:50 That looks like Flex Tape
I think you're right
Use goof off and the tape is gorilla tape or flex tape
thank you.
No start issues 😡🤬 it looks like a 150 or a 165 BT Husqvarna back pack blower
this one is the 130bt but they're mostly the same
@@HomeGaragechannel okay thanks for letting me know about the model number on this blower I forgot about that one
it is gorilla tape
I'm not so sure. My gorilla tape has a lighter underside. This tape looks like vinyl tape (i.e. electrical tape but wider).
thanks
I'll have to take a look
ZIP tape.
It's better than duck tape
thank you!
I think the tape is flex tape or gorilla tape
I think you're right
@@HomeGaragechannel I enjoyed watching your repair video. I have a Husqvarna 125BVX blower that bogs squeezing throttle replace the carburetor and it’s still doing that. Any idea to why?
sure, have you checked the spark arrestor screen and also the exhaust port on the engine? If so, you might have to adjust the carb to work with the engine
@@HomeGaragechannel thank you for the tip. I did this too, but what I did wrong was I was watching your video of your blower repair for this model. I put the gaskets on wrong and I redid it and adjusted it the way you would turn them all the way in and turn them out a little bit and now it runs, thanks for the tips and good video
anytime
Gorilla tape
thank you
Good video, good channel 👍👍👍
thank you!
Gorilla tape
thank you !
