You'd think that all these videos of this blower would include the most important thing, the schematic for the fuel lines. Bingo, you knocked it out of the park with the hand drawn schematics and removal of pointless banter. You even have the length of line in the schematic! Thank you for the great video.
I have been fighting this POS Husky 125B for years - carb settings/coil gap etc etc.......This video saved it from it's last gasp & impending death 11/8/21. THX!
Nice video. My carb failed, my fuel line cracked, etc. I bought the complete carb/fuel system replacement kit, under $20. It is no longer cost effective to tear apart, clean, replace individual carb parts. Buy the entire carb. What is your time worth? When I installed, it still didn't work. I discovered both the hi/lo screws were wound fully clockwise. I began to back counter clockwise 1/4 turn at a time. Once running, I used my single cylinder tachometer (it is cheap, has an antenna to place near the spark plug wire and picks up firing) I was able to adjust the lo at 3200 rpm, the run at 7000 rpm. I urge you to buy the tach. Great tool to dial in exactly what you want if you are going to repair your own single cylinder engines.
Wish I would’ve found your video about 11 hours ago, Sir. Almost feel like going back into the garage after watching you video, but tomorrow is another day for a fresh start. I thank you in advance for everything I searched for today. Great video👍🏽
You did a fantastic job of explaining each process on how to repair the carburetor! This is by far the best RU-vid video on how to repair the Husqvarna 125B blower. I have one exactly like the one you're demonstrating! Thanks especially for taking the time to draw those diagrams! They are extremely helpful since I'm working on my own blower. I needed those part #s and I thank you for detailing the lengths of each gas line.
I sure appreciate folks like you that take the time to make these videos. My Husq had a bad coil. Never dreamed that they fail - but no spark! Thank you!
Wow! Thank you for the detailed how-to. After several frustrating months of messing with my 125b, simply following this video set it right! It was the pesky coil/ignition, so five minutes online at the e-store, two days for delivery, six minutes to install/gap, it fires up immediately!
Thank you- 125B is known for carbs going bad due to modern ethanol gas. It’s all over the Husq site forum.This is exactly the carb and fuel line routing info I needed! I bought a new carb and it will soon be running. Thanks.
this was the best video I have seen . Thank you for walking us through every step and explaining what you were doing. the diagrams were especially helpful . Thanks a million !
You are the BEST! The detail on fuel lines, carb settings, magneto gap and wrench sizes were very much appreciated. You left nothing for guess work. This is by far the best video on the Husqvarna 125B. Much thanks.
I bought a new rebuild kit, (which included a new carb, hoses and plug), and coil on Amazon. They were pretty cheap. After Installing, I couldn't get it going. Took your advice on the coil gap, and found the new one couldn't be adjusted enough. The contacts were actually about 1/8 inch shorter. So I threw old one back on. After reassembling again, it worked like a charm. Thanks.
I want to thank you for the information you shared, I replaced my carb with a new one and replaced all the fuel lines, filter, bulb, and 125B is running like a scalded dog!
My fuel lines were brittle and broke upon disassembly thank you so much for the diagrams. i had them connected all wrong. you helped me get it sorted and running again
Thanks .ate. I've been struggling with my blower for ages. The diagram really helped, especially when my fuel lines crumbled as it was being disassembled
Mine Pond,... THANK YOU! After having a faulty unit and purchasing a new carburetor, following the advice of other videos, I was able get it started but it would stay running. Your video went into much-finer details especially the part of adjusting the carburetor (utilizing 3 screws). This got my machine running back to the way it is supposed to. Even the details of turns-per-screw got it within close proximity, where l tuned in and BANG! :). Success! That being said, thanks for the great tutorial video.
I bought a brand new one and didn't use it for over a month. I put fuel in it and it started up but really didn't want to run and seemed under powered. I'm a big Husqvarna fan so I already threw away the box not thinking. I only use premix in all my 2 cycles tools. Anyway I just used if for a few minutes to blow some grass clippings off the walk and I've never been able to get it started again. I've exhausted myself trying to start the darn thing which should not be this difficult. I have quite a few Husqvarna tools and this is the only one I've ever had an issue with. I have a 20 year old chainsaw I rebuilt because the piston was scored up and I wanted to put s head with s decompression valve on it also but it still ran. Actually it's still my favorite saw. Anyway Husqvarna seems to be losing quality control. I did cheap out on the leaf blower because I only use it for grass clippings and blowing snow off the vehicle seeing how I only have two small ornamental trees.
Thanks for such a detailed video. Your fuel line lengths were spot on. I also discovered my hard plastic connectors had a leak so I ditched them and ran the line directly from filter to carburetor and then the gas flowed.
Awesome video. I've got two of the pieces of junk now that I am going between as I bought a new one after the old one stopped running worth a damn. I know. I know. Why buy another 125B? Just hard headed I guess. Anyway, right now I'm in the process of getting at least one of them running and running correctly. Swapping out parts. Other various checks etc. The newer one is dead at this point and is going to take more time to TS. The old one is the one I have running and I have to use. Not my favorite thing to do unless it's just a rainy day with nothing to do. But this video has done a lot of the leg work and is highly appreciated. Good job.
Thank you so much for this video. All this time, I thought my 125B had a primer bulb. Thanks for explaining that to me. Also, the details about the carburetor was very helpful. The explanation of the diaphragm was beneficial. I feel much more confident with 4 cycle engines and find myself somewhat intimidated by these little 2 strokes. Thanks for the help.
Thanks a bunch for this video. Probably the best explanation I found today looking for the fuel line routing and adjustments. 2 pulls and she fired right up.
Thank you for this video, your instructions are perfect. Your details and steps were exactly what I needed to troubleshoot and get my 125b purring again. Thanks again!
Thank you so much for your expertise, verified a few miss leading points I had in question. I have replaced the carb, filter and gaskets. Having trouble adjusting it though. Did find out that the carb kit i ordered had 2 different size lines. I used the smaller of the two which took my air in fuel problem away. Will adjust my carb according to your instructions tomorrow, again Thank you.
Use 4mm hex on outside screws. 8 mm socket for air filter and fuel tank bolts. Drawing at 5:15 and breather hole at 7:30. At 10:05 is carb low/high adjustment screws and drawing is at 11:45.
I replaced the lines properly with a new purge bulb even though it wasn't needed and it still won't purge,, is there something internally in the carburetor that can go wrong and prevent the purge bulb from moving fuel?
Mike, I tried to find the links for the coil text and switch test but could not find them. Are you still making videos? Can you please send the links to me
excellent presentation, most helpful for me are the clear and simple diagrams...i am ready and prepared to tackle fuel line replacement and carb screw adjustment...
I changed the carb, the fuel lines, checked the muffler. Changed purge bulb. Now, when it starts, it will not run when in full throttle. What should I do next?
