CHICKANIC: The fuel tank valve is a one way filtered air check valve that allows air into the fuel tank... and does NOT allow vapors or fuel to exit. The valve allows "make-up" air to enter the fuel tank to avoid a vacuum / fuel starvation from the displaced fuel that is burned. It would appear that in fact your fuel tank valve was properly working and more than likely the fuel ultimately moistened the diaphragm assembly, making it flexible, which stopped the stiff pressure that was applied to the metering lever... which stopped the leak and resulted in the unit no longer flooding. As always, thanks for the excellent video!
Good video! Showed me my problem of fuel leaking out of the carburetor may be either a stiff diaphragm or a stuck tank vent. That makes sense! Thank you for explaining the specifics of the engine so much better than anyone else. You are great!!
Thank you for doing these videos! Just help me diagnose my backpack blower that was doing the same thing basically. Ended up being the needle and seat a little bit clogged and the screen being a little dirty but you cover that in some of your other videos. Not only did you save me money but my local shop is two weeks out and I can’t wait that long for my equipment to be fixed. Really appreciate what you do thank you.
Glad your brother's safe and well and thanks for introducing me to mechanic in a bottle, I've got a 2.5kva generator which ran as rough as a Badgers arse treated and now sweet as a nut,❤️
About 1:38 in before you get to the lesson. Glad your brother is ok. Thank him for his service. Don’t need quite such a long intro. But most people seem to do that.
Glad To See A Snafu Did Not Take Any Casualties Thank your Brother For His Service And One Of The Many That Keep Our Freedom Intact Every Day Nice To See Restraint From Firing The Parts Cannon And Using Logic To Figure Out An Issue Good Diagnostics 👍 Bre
Nice to see this ended up a simple fix. Petrol in Oztralia (your Gas) doesn't seem to last long these days either. I keep away from Ethanol blends. Love your work ! 🙂🚜🐻 Bear Queensland Oztralia
I had a piece of equipment leak fuel all the time, came from the dealer like that... Thought it might be a faulty tank vent, changed that out. Still leaked fuel. Turns out it was the needle lever was up too high, so the needle was always open. What gave that away was there was zero change in RPM in the H screw. So after getting into the carb, found that out and was easy to fix back to proper ZAMA height.
Thank your brother for his service and turn the thermostat up outside there in Arkansas. I'm coming down next week on a fishin trip and would prefer not to freeze to death. Keep the great vids coming.
Thank your brother for his service, glad he is ok. cool video was having same issue on a echo weed eater poured fuel in tank and fuel came out of intake gasket , so vent, or diaphram, lines are new
Great videos! I have seen them all. I have been a small engine technician for 45 years and love a challenge, and see you do to. Awesome job you do, wish I could get my wife to help some times. I love Echo produced I have a CS-440 I bought in 2005 and saw about 15 cord of wood each year, regular maintenance goes a long way and proper oils to. Great job! looking forward for more videos.
I recently had a Poulan that I hadn't used in a couple years, yes I drained the fuel. But it needed new fuel lines to get running as they were split and leaking gas. Ran good for a few hours while I cut up a tree then sat again for 6 months, yes I ran out the fuel before that 6 months. Got it started but it ran pretty crappy. Fiddled with the carb screws and got it running really well(maybe too well), but chain needed sharpening so stopped to do that. After that I could never get it to even blub blub a few times even using starting fluid. I'm guessing the ignition module died, but since it is probably 20 years old and I don't use a chain saw much more that every year to 6 months, decided to switch to electric. Got an Ego 18" and it starts every time even after sitting for months! Woo Hoo!
Wow, Fantastic video. I've been struggling with the same issue on my Shindaiwa t242 and have done everything I can think of. Thought I was going to have to replace the carb. but your trouble shooting was inspired so I'm going to give it another try. Keep up the great work.
@@donmayberryjrsOPE The throttle is a twist affair with spiral threads. On top of the slide is a little plastic pin, the roller goes on that pin, is made of metal, and if you bought the kit was likely the only piece left in the kit once you put everthing else in. The roller takes up the slop in the slide mechanism.
Perfect timing, just picked up a es 210 shredder vac that won't rev up. Noticed the filter was soaked. This thing was really filthy from sucking up and mulching leaves. Haven't torn into it yet but you can bet I'll be checking that vent closely first
Thanks very much for the information in this video, Bre. Big thumbs up for this one! I've been studying small engine work fulltime at TH-cam University since July 2021, watching literally thousands of videos (for several hours every day). My primary goal is acquiring equipment free or cheap and flipping, although I've started to do repairs for friends and family in a very small way. Although I'm subbed to your channel I don't have the notifications turned on. I watched plenty of your content early on until I started sorting through various channels to only get notifications from the ones I wanted to watch every day. I do see yours in my feed and click on those that seem interesting or informative to me at that moment (like this one!). Some of what you covered in this video is content I had not come across yet (and I'm subbed to many channels, including 5 you have listed). I understand how a carb works but it hadn't really occurred to me yet about exactly how the metering diaphragm could potentially flood or starve an engine of fuel and relating that to symptoms. I was already aware of adjusting the inlet needle lever or replacing a needle or seat but I hadn't ever heard that a diaphragm which was working during the previous season could possibly be revived by "exercising" it with fresh fuel, but I guess that makes perfect sense (at least sometimes). Certainly worth a try rather than having to take the time to research, order and install a rebuild kit! I was also aware of how check valves work in these engines but have yet to work on one with a separate hose running to an external check valve. Learning how that turned out to be the primary issue with this engine and how clear hose makes more sense in this particular installation helps a lot. Now I have more diagnostic and repair tools to add to my toolbelt! :) (...and source high quality clear hose equal to Tygon!) If I may, I'd like to offer a bit of constructive criticism about your audio quality. This is something of which you're probably already aware, but I notice it in so many creators' content I keep bringing it up to hopefully improve overall content throughout TH-cam. If you go back over this video and note when the audio volume is low and when it's high and then correlate that to where and how you had your equipment set up maybe you can see what needs to happen (with your existing equipment). The final outdoor segment has much better volume and is easier to hear compared to the indoor segments, especially the first indoor segment which is very difficult to hear. I'm guessing you're using a single camera with included microphone for all your work. The creators who have switched to lapel (lavaliere) mics do have much better sound quality because nothing drops out and almost always the volume is high enough for us to hear everything said. (Of course it's important for those mics to have a foam cover to avoid wind noise and sibilances (vocal "s" sounds). Please bear in mind we can always turn the sound down on our end but with a lot of equipment we have only a limited ability for volume increase. I'd much rather have to turn it down than have to put on headphones or earbuds to get enough volume. Thanks for reading and keep up the good work!
I love you channel! Would you consider doing a video on what are the most important items ti have in your shop for customer purchase ie oil, trimmer line etc just the fast sellers. I’m trying to make a list of what to have on hand for my small shop. Thanks for all you do been following since the beginning love seeing the growth of the channel you deserve it all and more. Have a great day.
Good stuff, last year, I got so angry with the hedge trimmer I tossed it back into the shed. I then grabbed the chainsaw and used that. Didn't look great... But it worked, and was much faster! Lol. Suppose I may need to look at the trimmer again. ✌️🖖
Great video. Had troubles with a tank vent years ago. Not understanding it I noticed the unit ran when it was disconnected. Soooo hmm extra part didn’t need it lol. Wonder if you would talk about the hour ratings these small engines have . Maybe help consumers buy the better power tool! My landscaper neighbor showed me on the box his new weed eater came in
I've had this issue with a sthill hedge trimmer, don't remember what model it was but the tank vent was in the fuel cap.. Took me a while to figure out what the problem was but just cleaned the fuel cap with compressed air and it was all working as it should again.
That's y I have an electric and battery hedge trimmer. Seven years and clearance items paid off the first year. This is home use and 60 feet of hedge done in 35 minutes
Tank vent??? Tank vent!!! ....argh!!!... frustration !!! two carbs later ...and my problem is a tank vent?? Thank You for this!!! ....but Argghhh!!! btw, I like your online persona/style.
More four stroke four cycle stuff please particularly Honda. I have a Honda rotavator/tiller the tank vent id a knob on the filler cap that you have to unscrew to let the air in. Forget and it will not start.
I've had the hc150 for years and it's a great machine. Ever since I purchased it starting it has always been a pain. Usually prime it 3 or 4 times before I have to keep the trigger squeezed just to get it running. Any siggestions.
Hello, I know that you have done several of these videos about units bogging down, and I think that I have seen them all. But, and there is always a but, right? Anyway, I have an Echo PB-2520 and it is bogging down bad. At first, I tried using the choke to try and get some flexibility back in the diaphragm. That didn't work. Of course, I put fresh fuel in it, that didn't work. Changed out the Spark plug, replaced the air filter, replaced the gas tank vent filter, tried to adjust my carburetor, replaced the carburetor, that didn't work. Replaced the coil, Nada, and also tried adjusting the new carburetor, still nothing. While trying to adjust the high speed screw, I noticed that it ran better when I turned the high speed adjustment almost all the way to the left. I also removed the new air filter and moved the choke back and fourth. At full choke it got worse, by the way if appears to me it's not getting enough air. By the way the carburetor is not leaking fuel. So, I am at a complete at to what to do next. The only thing I may have done is I used a flat head screw driver to help me insert the new fuel line holder into the top of the fuel tank. Of course I found out that I should not have done this. So, I may have put a cut into the rubber plug. If you can think anything else I need to do, I'm all ears! I sure would appreciate any help you can give me, I'm sure I goofed something up somewhere. Thank you for your time and I really appreciate all of you videos, you do a great job too. I've had this blower for a couple of years and I really like it, so I hope I don't have to go buy another one. Oh, by the way, I also checked the exhaust and everything was clean as a pen. I don't know anything else to do. Thank you a head of time for all your help!
Refreshing myself on this video because my Husqvarna 323L trimmer is leaking. I've just worked it real hard to loosen up the diaphragm, but I'm not aware of a tank vent on this. Does it have some other kind of vent?
Thanks for the video. What kind of gas do u use? U say, " My gas". What gas is that? I know ita not the can from the big box store. Is it non-ethenol gas with 2 cycle oil mix? Thank u.
At about the 8 minute mark when you released the gas cap, should you not have restarted it and let it run a little bit with the cap retightened before shutting it off and letting it sit to check for more gas overflowing from the carb? Interesting videos btw.
I have a feeling you will get this one back. A tank vent is not an air outlet. it is a air inlet so the tank can not form a suction in the tank and prevent fuel from getting to the carb. But never does a tank went allow air to escape. You will get this one back. Hope I am not making anyone mad but that vent is to let the tank breath in as it burns up the fuel. Not to release pressure. Built up pressure will never go through the needle if the carb is right. That carb has a reason the needle is not sitting right or diaphragm issues. But not a vent valve.
Hello, since I watched your videos, I don't spend a week without watching 2 to 3 videos! I have a problem with a small spring that must be installed at the 6-speed transmission on a mower that is pushed CUB CADET Model 12QD29Q596. Where do I have to install it? Thank you very much? Jacques from the province of Quebec, CANADA.
One more chainsaw video...PLEASE - Homelite 330 oiler quit..... I have a Homelite 330 (UT10604A) 20 inch bar that has served me well for 20+ years. Still starts, runs and cuts GREAT. I just noticed automatic oiler not working. Took apart cleaned out everything (in carb chamber) and tried to get new parts BUT NO LONGER AVAILABLE, Pooh! Any ideas?? Conversion to manual oiler (somehow??). Hate to give up on otherwise great saw. Ideas on suitable replacement if I must...??? Thanks, and GREAT channel!!

I found this video on the tank vent to be very helpful thank you.
Yo yo. Ta for the video. Yeah I have see this problem too. Some great information as always
Yes and put fresh gas means fresh mix from the pump not from the same batch the old gas came from last year. Love your videos you do an awesome job!
I have the exact Echo trimmer that's doing the exact same thing so I now no what to check, thanks for this video it really helps.👍🏻👍🏻
We have a guy in our area called Mountain Enterprise. He told me about Mechanic in a bottle years ago. It's good stuff.

Learned something new today
Wouldn't ever have thought of this
Thx
Glad he is home safe, even if it is fir a short time.
Hopefully he gets to stay for a long time. He has been in for 13 years and has been out many times.
@@Chickanic It's good to have our loved ones home and out of harms way. Prayers sent your way that he can get much needed R&R at home.
Thank you kindly! , that was my problem as well! Best regards from Puerto Rico!
That’s a new one. I learn something from this. Thank you so much.
Nicely done. Would not have thought about the vent. Thanks for what you do and thanks to your brother for his service.
Thank you for watching Frank!
Please thank your brother for us!

Something I never thought to check, thank you, love your videos!!!
THX again a helpfull video for me. Greetings from Germany.
Another video of yours that is easy to “like”. Small engine repair has become much less intimidating for me since I started watching your channel.
I have the same unit. There is a tiny roller on the throttle valve that is easy to lose. Without the roller it will never run right! Nice video!
Thanks for watching!
Where is that "roller" you talk about?
@@donmayberryjrsOPE
The throttle is a twist affair with spiral threads. On top of the slide is a little plastic pin, the roller goes on that pin, is made of metal, and if you bought the kit was likely the only piece left in the kit once you put everthing else in. The roller takes up the slop in the slide mechanism.
happy to hear your good news I never tire of seeing small engine starts after the off season
Thanks easy to follow and a starting place.
Perfect timing, just picked up a es 210 shredder vac that won't rev up. Noticed the filter was soaked. This thing was really filthy from sucking up and mulching leaves. Haven't torn into it yet but you can bet I'll be checking that vent closely first

I recently got a hold of a Weed Eater Excalibur hedge trimmer. Piston, and cylinder were destroyed. I did save the Zama carb in case someone needs it.
Good stuff, last year, I got so angry with the hedge trimmer I tossed it back into the shed. I then grabbed the chainsaw and used that. Didn't look great... But it worked, and was much faster! Lol.
Suppose I may need to look at the trimmer again. ✌️🖖
Be careful! Cutting stuff smaller than finger size with a saw will make your chain pop off. Thanks for watching!
@@Chickanic thanks! I'll remember that
Great video and explanation! Thank you 👍🏻
Thanks Catcha Cow!!
More good tips, and I'm glad your brother and his shipmates are ok.
another awesome video. Please keep them rolling
Awesome!! Thanks again for another great tip for those of us in the country that have to do our own DIY.
I've got a Shindaiwa with a tank vent so I'll keep this in mind, thanks!
Hell yeah! Good for another season ready to do some bush whacking
Oh yea!
Great video. Glad to learn the trick about loosening up the diaphragm . Will try it next time I get carb problems
Thanks for watching!
Great video. Had troubles with a tank vent years ago. Not understanding it I noticed the unit ran when it was disconnected. Soooo hmm extra part didn’t need it lol.
Wonder if you would talk about the hour ratings these small engines have . Maybe help consumers buy the better power tool! My landscaper neighbor showed me on the box his new weed eater came in
Hey Bre,
Love how you figured out another issue and made it so easy!!
And no, never get tired of you doing chainsaw videos :)
Take care yo
Good job, very informative!
Same thing happened to my 8 yr old PAS 225 trimmer. I just replaced the carburator with an OEM.
Haven’t run into that one yet but that one’s good to know! And I think they call those big boats ships. I don’t know ask your brother?
Great user info as usual. Thanks for the tips 👍
Great video. Love the helpful suggestions you give to try!!!
Informative video, thanks Chickanic

Plugged vent filter: Good Point.
My father was stationed on the Nimetz, very large aircraft carrier, he would have been upset to hear you call it a boat.
I have two Echo’s both have great compress, muffler not blocked or exhaust port, new clean, plug air filter, fuel filter still bog
More four stroke four cycle stuff please particularly Honda.
I have a Honda rotavator/tiller the tank vent id a knob on the filler cap that you have to unscrew to let the air in. Forget and it will not start.
Great site Chickanic cheers Mick Australia.

Thanks for the video. What kind of gas do u use? U say, " My gas". What gas is that? I know ita not the can from the big box store. Is it non-ethenol gas with 2 cycle oil mix? Thank u.
At about the 8 minute mark when you released the gas cap, should you not have restarted it and let it run a little bit with the cap retightened before shutting it off and letting it sit to check for more gas overflowing from the carb?
Interesting videos btw.
like it very informative. thanks!!!
I have a feeling you will get this one back. A tank vent is not an air outlet. it is a air inlet so the tank can not form a suction in the tank and prevent fuel from getting to the carb. But never does a tank went allow air to escape. You will get this one back. Hope I am not making anyone mad but that vent is to let the tank breath in as it burns up the fuel. Not to release pressure. Built up pressure will never go through the needle if the carb is right. That carb has a reason the needle is not sitting right or diaphragm issues. But not a vent valve.
Hello, since I watched your videos, I don't spend a week without watching 2 to 3 videos! I have a problem with a small spring that must be installed at the 6-speed transmission on a mower that is pushed CUB CADET Model 12QD29Q596. Where do I have to install it? Thank you very much?

One more chainsaw video...PLEASE - Homelite 330 oiler quit.....
I have a Homelite 330 (UT10604A) 20 inch bar that has served me well for 20+ years. Still starts, runs and cuts GREAT. I just noticed automatic oiler not working. Took apart cleaned out everything (in carb chamber) and tried to get new parts BUT NO LONGER AVAILABLE, Pooh! Any ideas?? Conversion to manual oiler (somehow??). Hate to give up on otherwise great saw. Ideas on suitable replacement if I must...??? Thanks, and GREAT channel!!
