Quick question, I have a 445 husqvarna x-torq that won't start but he sparkplug and exaust end floodsm??

@VintageEngineRepairs 10 месяцев назад

@@jorgehetnandez1696 You may find the needle is leaking in the carburetor? Clean up inside and double check :) either that or you’re not following the correct starting procedure? Could be a stiff metering diaphragm too, they can put more pressure on the lever. Have a look inside the carburetor is my advise :)

@7Toki777 9 месяцев назад

This is what I was looking for. You mention that the butterfly valve shaft cannot hang. For my Zama carburetor, it hangs both ways. Is that why I can't adjust the carburetor? Thanks again for the vids!!!

Absolutely one of the most informative two-stroke carburetor rebuilds I have seen on RU-vid yet and I have seen hundreds of videos on this topic, and have rebuilt hundreds of these carburetors myself only to learn something new in less than 20 minutes after 30 years of doing it! Best damn video around!

There is a wealth of knowledge out there. The majority of people do not take the time to listen and learn from others. Instead many chose ignorance and are proud of it. Some f what I learned is from experience and making errors everything else I learned from those who know more than I do. I don't like sports that much - never did - I much like knowledge and learning

@@VintageEngineRepairs I have no formal training, just what I’ve figured out on my own and what I’ve learned from watching videos. I’ve worked on these machines quite a bit over the past 30 years with mostly good results. After watching your video, it made me want to learn more about these little carburetors and it reignited my interest in working on these little machines. Where do you find kits that have the welch plug and brass check valve in them? Every kit I’ve ever seen only has gaskets, diaphragms, and the needle parts. Thanks again!

Thanks for clearly showing those tests. Never knew about the vacuum test on the main nozzle. Showing the punch out and re-seating of it was great. I'm often hesitant to take things apart too much (i.e. welch plugs) b/c I think I won't get them as well sealed as from the factory.

@davidbennett1316 9 месяцев назад

@@VintageEngineRepairs - well I have succeeded - it has a v cheap brand new OEM C1Q-S68G carb that I got from eBay for £13. I have stripped it down a couple of times before I watched your video, but not all the way. So took everything off and re-cleaned with carb cleaner and compressed air. The only think I spotted that might have been a problem was that the inlet control lever was hardly moving the inlet needle at all - much less than on another old carb I compared it to. So I bent the needle end of the lever (with the fork) up by about 0.5mm so that it was clearly moving up. Put it all back together and....nothing. Guess why? I forgot to reset the H & L needles. Once I did that it started easily and is running v well - just got to adjust the tickover as that's not quite right at the moment. So my top tip is - don't forget to reset the H & L needles after a carb teardown!! The only other problem I had was working out which way to put the metering diaphram back in - in addition to the screw holes it has 2 other holes at one end and I really couldn't see if it mattered which way to put ot back - so I guessed! Thanks again.

Im from the states and I enjoy your vids. I have a small engine shop and ive been working on small engines along time! I work on stihl mainly. But i do understand the need to clean and rebuild carbs vs new amazon or oem. Ive had so many come back after putting on an Amazon carb i just stopped ordering them and just buy oem. I go thru the process of cleaning each like you. 4 stroke carburetors are somewhat easy, but the stihl 2 stroke carbs are some of the worst ive worked on. Check valves and the high speed actuators on most are my problem. Fs90 carbs can be brought back to life and Some you just cant save. Carb spray in any carb but stihl seems to work fine. I remember the first stihl carb i cleaned with carb spray and after all that work it was worse than it originally was. I use a lot of little squeeze bottles too! Make my own solvents and lubes. Work better than most store bought. Its nice that there are some people who actually try to get something to work rather than be a part swapper, which i hate and hate 90% of these videos online. Anyone can change a part, but it takes a real mechanic to go into something and diagnose, clean, repair and rebuild what they are working on and it works correctly!

@VintageEngineRepairs 9 месяцев назад

Couldn’t agree more :) well said!

@chrisbrimer2641 9 месяцев назад

@VintageEngineRepairs hey your videos on when your cleaning and rebuilding carbs is quite calming. 😆 is there anyway you could do one on a rebuild and clean on a fs90 carb? If not I understand! Hey keep up the good work! I love your videos! Cheer!

Salutations! Please allow me to bend your ear a moment? I have come into a couple motorized skateboards recently and the engines are typical Chinese crap without any numbers or identifying marks anywhere. My question is, do u have a decent source for spare parts online? Rebuild kits? Diaphrams etc? I'm at my wits end with these cheap Chinese pos and just want these mfs to run. Any advice or sources for parts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Very informative, this will be so much help to anyone with a 2 stroke . Concludes my theory that why are they still putting carbs on when a basic injection system would be far more reliable and simple to manufacture??? This goes for lawn mowers, stone saws , chainsaws etc . I’m aware that certain manufacturers have started using injection and from what I’ve seen they still can’t get it right , which suggests to me lack of talent in the design department or the dreaded ‘account says no ‘ . Saving pennies to inevitability ruin a feasible concept!! Thanks for the content, I will now attempt to rectify running issues with some of our engines 👍😇🇬🇧.

Great Video & excellent camera work, especially the close-ups. I did watch a video from the Walbro company and they mentioned that ethanol fuels can eat away the polish around Welsh plugs and check valves so I am not sure what the answer is here if they are leaking. I look forward to seeing other videos now that I have subscribed and hit the bell for notifications.😁

@VintageEngineRepairs 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing! Yes it can remove it over time. Welch plugs don’t really need sealant on them, the manuals don’t recommend anything now days because of alcohol. The aluminium seals very well :) I use it because we don’t have ethanol, but I’d happily use no sealer!

Great video thanks given me a few pointers on an old Stihl given to me as a non starter. The carb kit supplied did have a longer pin on the diaphragm than original. Starts and runs a dream now but bogs out on load. Maybe I'll strip the carb again...

It’s worth determining if it’s a rich or lean bog. If the metering diaphragm has the longer nipple and that is in fact the issue, it will be a rich bog :) it’s opening the metering lever & needle too soon.

@@VintageEngineRepairs Thank you, I wasn't anticipating a reply, other than the satisfaction of sorting it, a new carb is very cheap, maybe I'll go that route as I'm not a patient artisan!!!

Qd electrical cleaner with the tube tip disolves corrosion pretty good and spray some in a bulb syringe then squirt it in to clean the check valves etc works good and some jewel's rouge on a q tip chucked in a Dremel tool or drill cleans and refinishes the seat area for the needle and seat, maybe that will help you out. All the best Sir.
