Step by Step!
Have a leaking carburetor? Did you clean and rebuild the carb, even go as far as replacing the rubber tipped needle valve, and the carb still leaks?
Today I'll show you how to solve this issue by using an electric drill, a q-tip, and some Permatex valve lapping compound!
In this video, I'll be using the STENS 705-020 Carburetor Pressure Gauge: www.amazon.ca/Stens-705-020-C...
You'll see the results at the end of the video!

I am a novice at working on small engines, I took it up as a hobby this past year being retired. I've been getting a lot of machines on stuff for free websites. As I always have I save parts. Which brings me to Having saved a lot of needle valves, now I can try a saved one to see if it works. As always GREAT video.

Excellent, I never thought to use lapping compound on a brass seat. Makes logically sense, often times I just put carb cleaner on q-tip and put in drill.

Thumbs up for valve lapping compound. I had polished it with metal polish and was going to try rouge before I saw this simple solution. Thanks

I think we all have a donar tank. LOL I have tried Brasso cleaner to some success. It isn't quite abrasive enough. Great video, I am commenting as I go. Lapping compound has worked better for me than brass cleaner. I switched about a year ago. There it is at 5:31 !!!!!! Nice work

OK, I found the answer. The pin on top of the needle valve was SO firmly stuck that I thought it might have to be unscrewed or something!!!! ))))) Guess I just found the problem. Thanks again Eliminator!

Thanks. Great video. I have what looks like almost exactly the same carburettor and obviously you just slip the pin out that acts as a hinge, but then there's another pin (like yours) that prevents me from taking the float off. I don't want to damage anything, and I can't figure out how to proceed to remove the float and reveal the needle valve and seat. I'm going to see if I can find the answer on another vid, but if you see this and could let me know, I would really appreciate it. Cheers!

This is a good tip with viton tip needles but older brass ones not so much. My arsenal of tools are drill bits ground flat, end mill bits, and dremel polishing bits cut at 45*. I basically go at it like cutting a new intake/exh. valve seat😆 these cheap ope carbs are not as rare and as expensive as keihins on Atv’s and bikes.

Another good one buddy, for your viewers that may not have access to lapping compound do you think toothpaste or possibly baking soda or powder mixed with oil might work?
@EliminatorPerformance
@EliminatorPerformance 3 года назад
Not too sure, have never tried that! Thanks for watching!
@alext8828
@alext8828 3 года назад
Toothpaste is what I was thinking too. It is very slightly abrasive. I think it would be worth a try. I have some Mag polish in the closet. I think it's Mothers. That's always a good go-to polish for odd jobs. Even on paint and Plexi.

This is just a new Carburetor you might need to know most might have a little seal in it!
@billkrause4585
@billkrause4585 3 года назад
Don't you have to apply a little pressure to the float as simulating the fuel level pushing up on the float? Good tip. Thanks!
@EliminatorPerformance
@EliminatorPerformance 3 года назад
No, generally the weight of the float is enough to let you know you have a seal or not under 5psi, sometimes I even test them around 2.5psi and it's good enough to tell me there's a good seal and the carb won't leak. Thanks for watching!

@mlab123 10 месяцев назад
Do you think another mildly gritty compound like, say, toothpaste, would have the same effect? Just trying to think if there are other compounds that might accomplish the same thing.
@EliminatorPerformance
@EliminatorPerformance 10 месяцев назад
Yes, I've used some stainless steel polish and it seems to work fine, like I said with the valve lap compound I'm not putting a lot of pressure, just enough to let the grit clean up the surface. I'm sure some brass polish would work fine
@dougvalkema4762
@dougvalkema4762 3 года назад
Would rubbing compound work if You don't have lapping compound?
@EliminatorPerformance
@EliminatorPerformance 3 года назад
I'm not sure as I haven't tried it, basically anything that's course would work.
@victoryfirst2878

How expensive is the Stens pressure tester Mr. Eliminator ?? Would using brass polish paste work also ??? Nice video fella.

It's quite expensive, but they work well. I'm sure you can make one using some household tools.

@EliminatorPerformance Год назад
Yea it's what I had at the time, haven't had an issue with any, which is why I mentioned not a lot of pressure. I'm now using brass polish, but it needs to be cleaned even better.

Id just use gas on it or keep it dry not gonna ruin mine drilling it with a bit cause i probably would still think it needs a fatter rubber tip needle
@EliminatorPerformance
@EliminatorPerformance Год назад
You don't drill it, you're just spinning the drill with your fingers and minimal pressure to debur the center hole in the seat. Polishing them is the best way, but sometimes they need to have the drill technique done. It's usually the only way you can solve a slow leak after replacing the needle valve
@Mike-su8si
@Mike-su8si Год назад
@@EliminatorPerformance but then the bur inside the side of the hole would need picked out i have the tools for that
@chuckmcmullen9968
@chuckmcmullen9968 2 года назад
I have used baking soda type toothpaste as valve lapping compound. Flushing with carb cleaner of course. I also use electronic cleaning swabs, they are smaller in diameter and use a felt tip instead of cotton. I have cleaned the electronic cleaning swabs and reused.
@EliminatorPerformance
@EliminatorPerformance 2 года назад
Yes anything that's gritty and polishes will work. I'm going to try toothpaste, as many have suggested it. So far, I haven't had one fail once it's been polished with the valve lap compound. But as others mentioned, you have to be careful as it's meant to be used on hardened steel and not brass.

Thanks alot for this video man. I was scratching my head thinking "man, i wonder if i should apply lapping paste onto the needle and rotate it back and forth" Then I got on here and found your video LOL! This Q-tip paste tech is everything I needed to complete my bag of carb tricks!
