nice shorts
wow now i know who not to pay to tune up my lawn mower lol i always take the carb off the motor and clean every jet and passage not saying how you do it is bad but thats almost a half-ass way of doing it
cool video I need to do my brothers in law Thanks for the help ,eyeboltman2
After i start a blump nose and Also black smoke coming out of muffler how do i solve this problem?
Steve
This actually worked. Just cleaned that screw and then put starter fluid on the filter and on the carb, now its fine.
WTF. wait a minute. You didn’t even remove the carb!! All you did was take off the bowl. What about the interior of the carburetor???????? There are pins and more inside by the primer bulb.
This was so good and you are a good teacher.
Thank You for the video. I watched it once then tried it on my mower. Mower is running perfectly now.
@ninjato1979 This method did the trick, my lawnmower started right up. I ended up reusing the original gasket as it was still in good condition. If some of it sticks to the nut when removed, you should replace it. The gas in my tank was yellow and smelled bad as he mentions in the video. I’ll be sure to run the tank dry in fall to avoid having to clean the carburetor again. Good luck with yours.
my gas powered weed eater will only run as long as you pump the bulb, whats wrong
Thanks a million for this video!
You just saved me some money and these days thats a big deal.
Regards!
Mr. Bauer, When you put the nut back into the center of the carb., did you put a new gasket on it? You cleaned it off and described it as cleaning off the old gasket. When you put it back into the center of the carb. you didn’t say anything about a new gasket.
This worked like a charm. Saved me $90.00 plus I did not have to wait 3 weeks to get it repaired as everyone has their lawn mower in the shop.
To clean the main jet in the carb I used brushpicks which can be found in the denal aisle in walmart or target
Thank you very very much. I have never done this before, but your video gave me the confidence I needed to clean the carburetor. The bowl had what looked like yellow resin rocks inside when I took it off. Now it works great.

Thank you so much! Lost my dad in Sept 09 and along with him went his knowledge of everything mechanic and my only source. I was able to clean the carburetor and fix the mower, even though I’m not really mechanically inclined.. and a girl! Thanks again.
Thank you so much…I used old gas and didn’t know how to get to the carb. Appreciate your video!!
Great Video! Thanks so much for the help. This worked right away and saved me a lot of money.
Nice video!
dude this is really an outstanding video because I tried to start my friends mower and water got in the carburetor and had to clean it Thanks A Bunch!
Great video.
so many bad videos, this one is very well detailed and clear, thanks!
Thanks so much. i know now that i need to clean the main jet too. i have the same engine as you. Just be careful because that carb cleaner will eat up the plastic float inside of the bowl.
That was WAY better than a couple other videos out there. Great job, and thanks for posting.
nice jorts
