Great work squatch and senior. The only tit bit that I can give is that when putting a screw or bolt turn it in the loosen direction first until you feel it drop into the thread and then tighten. I have not cross threaded anything since someone put me on to that.
Honestly, I have no practical reason whatsoever to watch those videos yet once I start I'm hooked and simply can't stop watching. The respect for detail and the incomparable competence with Senior makes me humble.
Just reminiscing - I'm not that old (yet) but my first two cars had manual chokes - the familiar round knob with the chequer pattern on it, ah , memories!
It’s amazing how many little parts goes into that engineered marvel! Wow! Another great job well done and explained! Great job Sr!👍 Man she looks like a brand new carburetor!
As for the flat washer. A older follow mechanic told me one time, always install a flat washer bebore the lock washer on aluminum pieces being assembled. Indeed it was most be seen in those days. Today, newer bolts style have the washer already in them often. Nice work.
I have enjoyed the carburetor rebuild very much. I am hoping to see a series on the magneto rebuild too. I remember that you showed a magneto shaft that was broken. Have you ever tried to make a replacement shaft to repair one of those and I also thought about the possibility of making a replacement gear out of aluminum. I remember that GM used to use a fiber compound cam gear in their in-line 6 cylinder engines which were prone to failure. Aftermarket gears were made of aluminum that would last practically forever. I saw that was reused in a rebuilt engine that outlasted that engine and was installed in another one to replace the fiber gear that had stripped off a bunch of teeth.
It would really be nice if you showed us where the extra parts are. You know there is always couple screws etc leftover after assembly. Lol. Outstanding Squatch Sr.!
Looks real good, Senior! I always preferred a product called Cast Blast for painting carburetors, but recently have started using cast grey colored engine paint, and it holds up VERY well to grease/oil/gasoline. Little tricks of the trade! Love the rebuild series on the carburetor!
They don't have find you handsome as long as they find you handy a quote from the Red Green show is what that brutal looking carb was full of good parts. Too bad the Beer Can engine wasn't like that so then we say Oh Well. This series of videos was very useful as well as informative because of your wisdom, tips and tricks Squatch Senior. Thank You
Clearly explained and laid out, every step of the way. Thank you for sharing, very satisfying and comforting to watch such a wealth of experience and tricks and tips. Squatch Senior - the carburettor wizard! Shout from the UK! PS just realised that we spell it with two 't's (to waste ink) and you spell it with one 't' which is why we say it differently - Although I'm English, I do like the way Americans say carburetor(ttor) better than us! :)
Wonderful skill and knowledge that you share and preserve for the future! Thank you so much! What I would offer as a variant to your technique is that you could use self-closing tweezers instead of the needle-nose vice grips. I've also used a set of long-nose duckbill pliers with a rubber band added to make a larger version of some of the self-closing tweezers. I also have a set of sliding-jaw thread starting screwdrivers to avoid having to use a "tack" or some grease to hold a non-magnetic screw while starting. While the ones that I have use a sliding jaw and a conventional bit, you can look at the Klein K14 (Philips) and K34 (flat blade) series as something that would hold without grease. But the important thing, as always, is whatever works for you. The procedural tips and wisdom you provide are really worthwhile. Thank you!
Now that you have this redone will you have a video showing how to set the jets on the tractor? I would like to see how you make adjustments to the low idle and high idle to make the engine run better. Thanks.
I would love to hear the audio from where they cut out putting that choke spring assembly together. :p Would have been perfect to have an old batman cartoon style smash/pow picture cover up the cut in the video.
A great set of videos on rebuilding this carburetor. I am amazed how complicated it is for a simple starting engine. I am comparing it to the Lister D engine I have which is a simple spraybar type carb.
Fascinating to see this tear down. My car uses Stromberg carbs which I believe come from the same manufacturer. The Stroms are an absolute horror show, more so as they are a pair. They can be knocked out of balance by a bad pothole, a bump in the engine bay or even a butterfly passing gas in Tanzania! 🤣🤣🤣 Might need to change to something simpler!!!!
Good series old squatch I've use a lead shotgun pellet to plug the passages with , if you ever run into a supply for that long needle let me know where they are,
@@squatch253 See now, NO ONE would've known that by watching the video. And here you are telling on yourself. There's no taking away from any of Sr's knowledge or experience here, just couldn't you let him enjoy a wee extra fame...no charge (humorous grin)?
Passing on your experience and wisdom is the best gift you can give to us. Fantastic tutorial. Thank you so much!!
Can you guys just imagine the level of knowledge and experience we've just watched Senior exhibit in these absolutely fascinating 5 episodes? Amazing!
Will done Senior, yet another quality Squatch series
Nice job, Sr......
This has been a great tutorial. Honest and humorous and informative.
Great work squatch and senior. The only tit bit that I can give is that when putting a screw or bolt turn it in the loosen direction first until you feel it drop into the thread and then tighten. I have not cross threaded anything since someone put me on to that.
Yepp.I've been quietly (til now) proud of discovering that myself.Very satisfying.
Honestly, I have no practical reason whatsoever to watch those videos yet once I start I'm hooked and simply can't stop watching. The respect for detail and the incomparable competence with Senior makes me humble.
Such a pleasure to watch Senior at work meticulous in his planning and execution 👌
They don't teach that in todays tech school. Great video.
Fine Job Senior,this series was the most thorough breakdown and rebuild I've saw,and all the little tips from experience...priceless.!!!
Just reminiscing - I'm not that old (yet) but my first two cars had manual chokes - the familiar round knob with the chequer pattern on it, ah , memories!
That's a brand new carburetor! Nice job 👍
It’s amazing how many little parts goes into that engineered marvel! Wow! Another great job well done and explained! Great job Sr!👍 Man she looks like a brand new carburetor!
this needs to be a series produced for caterpillar find their old WW2 machine tools worth millions
Thanks Sr. Great job. Good to see you back.
Great series & lots of useful tips Thanks SR.
Always good to see you working on stuff Sr! 🙌 😀😃
Excellent video thank you for sharing your knowledge about the carburetor rebuild series 👍👍👍👍
Great series! Thanks Snr :)
Nice to hear someone use 'comprises' correctly...:)
my father was a prof mining engineer just like this guy
Good stuff in a GREAT series! This was a really enjoyable watch!

Thanks for bringing us along!
Thank you for the videos. I have four carburetors on the bench right now and really didn’t realize the difference. Great job Squatch Senior!
Very impressed with the work Senior did and who else to put to do this job then him.

work of art!

A great set of videos on rebuilding this carburetor. I am amazed how complicated it is for a simple starting engine. I am comparing it to the Lister D engine I have which is a simple spraybar type carb.
I noticed the high speed jet assembly is different from the start of your rebuild to the finish
My carburetor is the same as you started rebuilding do I still turn my high speed jet 1 and a half turns out from fully closed.
Fascinating to see this tear down. My car uses Stromberg carbs which I believe come from the same manufacturer. The Stroms are an absolute horror show, more so as they are a pair.

Can still get from Zenith. I got one a couple of months back.
Awesome job!
Looks good!
Invaluable detail work on a simple carb. What is that brass plug’s purpose? The one you drove out with your special tool. Idle jet?
Looks like new 😊🌎🌞👍👍👍
Senior is the Carb whisperer
I feel A disturbance in The Force, Someone's eyelid is atwitchin'... Cat Yellow.!
They make a screw starter that locks into the phillips head screws
Welk Done Sr. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Does that type of carburetor have any bushings that may go bad. Just wondering.
Hi Senior. What would Junior do without you?
Great job! I am afraid this paint job will be far too nice for Squatch.

good video
Very good video 👍 👍 👍
You used the pics of 1113s carb rebuild for the thumbnails of these videos correct?
Good video
sorry to have to tell you after all this, but curly hat ain't big on paint with old 1113
Seems like on overly complicated and oversize unit for a simple starting engine that is either idling or running at full throttle.
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👀👀👀☕️☕️☕️👋👋👋🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
If that doesn't work, I would want to sue Caterpillar.
Great work Sr.
