Im havingtrouble finding oem Deere carburators for less than $300-350 anywhere online. Im having trouble with my current one that i just purchased. the previous owner replcaed it not long ago but it appears he got a cheaper one on amazon. The issue is that there are a LOT of them on amazon but not sure which ones are better than others. The one he installed is making hydraulic lock in the one he used and it wont start and doesnt fire properly. IF so let me know which you used and how it worked overall. Hoping you discussed this on the video but only halfway through. Thanks
Push down on the silver head. On the other side flip the lock (one side is square, the other is round so it is straight. Remove the pin. Swap your end, push the pin back through, swing the lock 90 degrees & make sure you slide it so it locks otherwise the spring will cause the pin to launch back out.
I bought the Multipurpose HF pump to evacuate the accidentally filled coolant inside washerfluid compartment. Rinsed with distilled white vinegar. Thank you for the video.
hey I know it's been a long time but I have just rebuilt the exact same engine in this video and can't seem to get the timing right. Do you think you could take off the crankcase cover and show me where your timing marks meet? Ive looked everywhere online and cant find anything on that. This would help me out a bunch so I dont have to buy a new motor. Thank you and I hope to hear from you. :)
Ok, the advice on purchasing a new set of jigsaw blades seems to be the best one here. I have the same jigsaw and use it occasionally to cut some lumbers to fix backyard stuffs. Before using a new set of blades, I have been using the one came with it and the cut ended up wavy... or curvy at best... So, I was trying to throw it away and get a new circular saw or so. I'll try out with new blades and see if they actually work better.
Communist Chinese Carburetor ? Bro,you have a beautiful American Made John Deere STX 38 ! Chinese anything are not bought because they are high quslity,they are bought because they are cheap ,period! If their shit was not cheap ,no one in America would buy Chinese anything ! Just sayin! That STX 38 was made to last & be rebuilt someday ,to be handed down !The new John Deere and virtually all new tractors are throw away junk ! Until Made In America is king again ,quality will suck !American Companies will build shit in China and label it American !
I'm looking for the wind tunnel that has two belts a very thin one and the fat one I don't know where the fat one goes there's only one break and a little belt is already there
A riding mower front wheel rim spiked to the yard is a good diameter. And if you wrap the rope while mowing clockwise blowing to the inside it will probably run out of gas before it unwinds then rewinds.
My brother played sports, I stayed home and worked on everything with my dad. He's been gone almost 20 years now and I always feel him with me anytime I'm working on things. <3 You made this a much more fun fix.
I've never had such difficulty in years of replacing belts as Im having with my windtunnel now. I watched your video to confirm I was doing it right. I appreciate this video! But mine is still challenging. No problem fitting the brush back in without the band, but I can't put it back once the band is on. Tried for hours last night. As if the band is 1/8" too small. But thank you for confirming that this IS the right way. Maybe I was sent the wrong size band!
What a great helper! I've been watching videos for belt replacement on a Hoover even though I already checked the belt on mine. I kept smelling burning rubber. I just realized there was a small, what seems like foam rubber ring, just about an inch in diameter, hanging loose on that metal drive, between the belt and the vacuum. It has a couple places where it looks like it must have been caught against the drive, so that's probably what I was smelling. I can't find where it came off, and I'm not finding it as a replacement part on Hoover's website. Anyone have any ideas? My vacuum is a Hoover Windtunnel 2 Whole House Rewind, model UH71250.
Good video...but....get what appears to be a beer bottle off your bench and out of the video...power tools and alcohol do not go together...(which is what your video implies)... I'm looking at buying this grinder...thanks.
Hoover is awesome,because they have a sticker on the bottom with the part numbers for the belt, the bag, and the filter! Done in 10 min with the right part!
Bro don't smoke before you mechanic if you don't do this much .my wrenches feed me and my family and I'm 3rd generation mechanic so i know first hand what a missed bolt or nut or thrush bearing can do lol but if your having to write this 15 minute process down you smokin and no disrespect I and my wife do as well but take care of that motor and it will rip forever
Long time overdue but you're only using half the pliers. There is another set of pegs that allows you to do both "internal" and "external" snap rings. This is where the tool fails, BTW. There's nothing to retain the jaws in the other position.
i've been rebuilding an old USA made Craftsman screwdriver set my dad bought in the early 80s. It was a pretty comprehensive set with possibly 30+ screwdrivers. I've narrowed it down to maybe 4 that i'm missing. Nice to find the replacements at the flea market for 50 cents to $3 considering the new Taiwanese remakes at Lowes are demanding up to $15 individually. FWIW, I have 3 of 6 of an older mid 70's set of black/yellow handled Stanley USA made screwdrivers. While they don't have as comfortable as grip, the tips are very stout and grinded nicely unlike the modern ones in the video.
I’ll take Channel lock any day of the week. Irwin and Craftsmen have become another sad testament to the disease of American corporatism and its addiction to whoring/hollowing out once great brand names in the name of profit maximization surfing upon the back of foreign slave labor and once great recognition. All because a bunch of rich millionaires weren’t satisfied being millionaires. No. These people had to become billionaires. Even if that meant at the expense of destroying their own nations manufacturing power and economic welfare. None of which has ever passed any kind of savings back to customers. Just inferior products and manufacturing quality being sold at the same prices the products would have cost had they been made domestically. The only reason made in USA cost more today is because these corporate cancers manipulated that into a premium brand itself. It’s disgusting and it’s destroying the nation. I rarely buy new tools at all anymore because of all this big business bullshit. I refuse to give such corporate cancers another dime. I buy second hand, so at least I know the money spent went straight into the pockets of a private American individual. The American people will learn in the end that all of this big billfold/big government/ big business bullshit. Was never anything more than one big unsustainable delusion wiped from the rich mans ass and smeared into the fabric of American society. God forbid another world war or global conflict. America no longer possess the manufacturing muscle to come out on top. The US won WW2 because of US manufacturing might and logistics. Even Americas infrastructure survives upon the quality of turn of the century manufacturing.
Good discussion, i've been wanting to upgrade an old spinner handle which i don't particularly like the grip to something with a 1/4 square drive at the end to put on a ratchet. I'm leaning on getting a 1/4 roto head ratchet with using a wobble or 1/4 extension preferably with quick release so i don't loose the small sockets while bumping into things
