    Thanks for uploading this. I was unfamiliar with how these Carbs worked. My mower had been running poorly and finally got to the point where it would only run from the primer bulb and shut off. I put my Carb and Tank a bucket of warm soapy water while I went to pick up the new Diaphragm and Gasket $4.10. Once I got back I dried everything off and reassembled it. Fired right up and runs like a new mower. You got me up and running in no time. A big Thank You from Pennsylvania! 👍

    I watched some other videos before I cleaned my carb and this one after. I wish I had watched this one first because it's the best by far!

    I believe this to be the best instructional video on the refurbishment of a B&S carburettor that I have watched to date. It’s a clear and concise step by step guide for someone with only basic workshop tools and knowledge.

    Got a 'broken' lawn mower from my dad. Hadn't run in 10 years. Quick trip to Lowes for some parts and I'm up and running! Had to spray some starter fluid in the carb to get it to start. Thanks for the clear and stellar video!

  • @gordbaker896
    @gordbaker896 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Thanks for the great tutorial. I use Torch Cleaner files to probe Main Jet. I used a small flat blade screwdriver to pop out the plastic Main jet/emulsion tube which has 3 small holes in its length. Mine was black and is secured by a tiny O ring. There is a flat spot on the top to pry it out. Work carefully! Mine is the 5 bolt model.
    Be sure to seat it flush on reassembly. Carefully using a fine flat file I filed the bolt hole bosses adjacent to the block where the carb base was warped. This reduced the gap somewhat. I used some Permatex Aircraft sealant along the joint between those bolt holes.
    I used a straight edge to see the warpage left between the 2 holes. That leak area sometimes accounts for the oily mess on the carb and block in that area I was told. Mine had the Diaphragm on the Carb side instead of the Tank side.
    Seems right, but I reassembled with the diaphragm on the Tank side, then the gasket. Edited.

    I've paid for someone to "fix" my carburetor several times. They never took it apart like this (I always watch to try and learn) but did something to unclog it. I kept having problems so decided to do it myself. Thanks to this video I discovered I was missing a gasket. I disassembled the carburetor and cleaned it myself and will do all my own small engine work from now on. Next up, oil change LOL

      Believe it or not, the Spray Nine doesn't kill the grass, and there's hardly any fuel in there because I drain it out and let it sit for a bit!

    Fantastic video! Very thorough. Mine wasn't starting, so I went through the whole process. Took out the carb and tank, cleaned it all with carb cleaner before taking it apart. Took it apart, cleaned everything thoroughly. Washed inside the tank, then re-assembled, fresh fuel! First start and it started. Smoked a bit, so I checked the oil; oil was low, refilled the oil and restarted. Smoke is gone and engine runs like a champ. Thank you!

    Very good video, wish I had it when I first cleaned one of these carbs some years back. I ended up using a one dollar squirt bottle filled with water and canned air (the kind used to clean electronics) and was just very careful. Funnily enough, soon I'm going to clean the same exact carb again so was looking to see if I even did it right. This time, however, I'm probably going to have to replace some things on it. It's been sitting outside for literally four years, but it's not seized and I need a mower, so...

    I have 2 of these cursed carb/gas tank combos. Neither will draw any gas, using the primer bulb. One viewer mentioned the ball/spring check valve behind the primer. I see nothing like that in either of mine. Perhaps that is why it won’t draw any fuel? I see you included the B&S p/n for them. Def grateful for that. Hope it’s easy to replace. Thanks for the excellent videos btw. Snowblower season is coming soon. I am almost done restoring my old 1960s 3stage…

    Many thanks for this very interesting video. A question if I may about front wheel adjustment. My newly acquired Classic 35 mower does not have a height adjusting handle for the front wheels on either side of as in your video. (There are adjusters each side for the back wheels). At present the bodywork runs too close to the grass level. Is there an adjusting tool available or do you have an alternative simple solution please? Many thanks in anticipation of any advice received .
