Finally somebody did a simple instructive video that shows you and tells you exactly what you need to know I swear there's nine thousand different videos and they all go around what you need to know and never cover a single bit of it I was trying to verify the way the fuel lines ran on the soil and apparently I do have them the correct way thanks for actually making a video it has good information in it
no way i did this without you. put the new carb on & runs great. with your help it was not too tough. hardest part was getting the new fuel line into the tank. great video. thanks again.☮️
Great video here! Every other video I've seen should be removed. Now THIS is how you do an instructional video. Everything shown in detail and explained clearly. Thanks a lot for this man. 👍🏾
Information much appreciated. I picked up a 235 and a 445, Both needing Repairs for $115. Whoever attempted to fix the 235 Put the Fuel filter on a return line, Left the old Pickup Line on (and cracked) and the old carb to primer which had several cracks. On initial testing - i.e. adding Gas to the tank - the whole Top Deck under the Carb was Flood with fuel. After reviewing this video I pulled the carb, cleaned and Flushed it well. I then followed your diagram replacing the bad fuel lines, putting a new filter on the correct line and reassembled everything. Initial starting was a bit rough but when I made the proper low/High adjustments it decided to idle and is super snappy going to max RPM. Make me happy. Now to get a clutch cover, Bar/Chain and find a buyer.
Excellent step by step removal and installation of the carb. This is my exact model. They said like you said in the video. They think its the carburetor abd labour plus parts will be more than a new one. Now I know how to take it apart and I believe Amazon has the parts. Thanks for taking the time to explain in detail.
Thank you so much for making this video. It was clear, understandable and I think for me so convenient to be able to rewind as I took the steps necessary to complete attaching the hoses to the proper place. I appreciate your efforts. Jim Simmons.
Very good job explaning the whole process step by step. Thank you very much. I might have to change the fuel line to the carb. These saws there is a lot of steps to do that.
Having watched your video and by coincidence a Husqvarna was dumped on me to have a new carb fitted, and your video just made the job relatively easy, thank you!
Looked at a lot of videos. This is best of all. Hand drawn diagram finally made sense to me. Appreciate your clear communication abilities. Thanks a bunch!
great video dude. One of the best I've seen on RU-vid especially on a very difficult saw to service the fuel lines. You're the only one that had a video that directly addressed when I have to do. The masses thank you
It feels really good to get that kind of feed back.... Many of these end up in a landfill long before their time because of the price point, and for many the parts are cheap to get back into service, unfortunately the labor is not. So much waste comes from this industry, its a good feeling helping others avoid that, even if be on a small scale.
Great video and saved me a ton of time and money. I have a 235e, and it took me a couple of tries getting it back together because I got the screws mixed up, would've like a little more detail on that, plus mine has two different sizes of gas tubing, a smaller one for the main gas line from the filter, and two lines next size larger for bulb/primer. Otherwise, many kudos for an excellent job!!!Thank you!!
I wish all do it yourself videos were as detailed as yours, I appreciate your time & expertise on tis particular chain saw ... I was going to trash it until i found your video Thanks a lot!!!
Excellant video great detail. Especially choke lever position. Originally had it installed wrong. I was able to change the carb but had to do it twice. I forgot to install the gasket. Noticed the old gasket on the old one after I installed the carb Your detailed instructions helped alot. It runs now but have to adjust hi low settings. It stalls when I pull the trigger.
Constructive feed back, that yielded someone else success... I originally made this video for a friend, I was trying to explain this to them over the phone. It was a bit difficult so I said screw it, I have that saw, I'll make a video for you. The others it helped is just icing on the cake. Still a bit of a warm fuzzy feeling to it tho.
When I was changing the gas line on mine I figured that the line taking gas from the purge back to the tank was the gas line and pulled it out and costed my self a lot of work, this shows to do research first. Cause good people like you who know their stuff make videos on it. Crazy!
Super video dude.i repair small engines as a profession but i still like to watch the onlines.you didnt miss a single step and no bullshit.take me to the river drop me in the water.nice job...the world needs more men like us.
You won at RU-vid for today. Thanks! I got my saw back from a "small engine" joint after having them replace cracking fuel lines, filter and bulb. Prime, choke, pull, half-choke, pull and it ran great... For 4 seconds. They had the bulb backwards and the filter on the wrong side. Working now. Again, thanks!
Very well done Sir! Saw would quit running several minutes after a full tank, rotten fuel lines were sucking air as soon as the fuel level dropped. I shoulda looked for this before I started unscrewing everything. But, yeah, I googled "Husqvarna fuel flow diagram" and bingo. I won't say what I learned about those four screws on the bottom of the motor but you did remember for me the three finger tubing puzzle. All is well in the end, 17 year old unit saved from the recycle yard for a couple hours & $20 and saved about $300.
Thanks for the very well done video, it explained how to take the saw apart enough to get at the fuel lines and carb and a very good explanation of how the primer bulb actually works. I was able to replace the fuel line from the carb to the tank without removing the carb, once it got in the tank, was able to grab it with a pick and pull it thru. A fiddly job but not difficult.
Outstanding information,! Very helpful, And kept it simple for me to get the picture in my mind and not forget when I go out to fix my problem 😀 Thanks !
Thank you for the in depth video this was great!!! My issue was I bought mine from a pawn shop and well lets say never again with out a full take down and deep dive into finding out what the heck someone else did to the dam thing! cost me almost as much as a new saw to replace the worn out parts I think I am 15$ less at this point and I need to replace the bottom fuel line because they used the wrong one and it leaks from the tank as you try and prime it so the saw does not stay running because it sucks air and then dies!
this is the best vid i have watched on changing these carbs i have a 240 that bogs down at full throttle and for the price of a carb i am going to change it
Helped me a lot, fixing to tackle this job. I guess it’s best to use non Ethanol fuel even though I’ve always drained most of the fuel out when storing but the saw is about ten years old so it’s due.
Great video. Appreciate you taking apart a running saw to show us how. Do note the bolt holes through the black plastic carb piece are way too tight. That's the pinch point. Ream those out once you get it apart to make future cleaning easier.
Awesome video. Made everything easy except feeding the priming button tube back into the back of the tank. Needle nose players could not reach back far enough to grab it and pull it in.
Well done! Great video! I've had a few chainsaws where the fuel line depletes over time and drops the filter in the tank. What a load of bollx. You need to learn to fix them yourself or they just become disposable trash. But thanks for posting this. PS.. I get the fuel line kits from Lowes or HomeDepot
I've got this exact model and I really need your help. I have to replace the fuel lines and purge bulb which is not too difficult for me to do. What I'm not sure about is the fuel tank vent ( I accidentally pulled out the check valve (duckbill) while trying to pull out the old fuel line that goes into the fuel line fitting. So that needs to be replaced. I understand that I need to drill a hole in the vent and pull it out with a screw. I also pulled out the fuel line fitting so I'm not sure how the fuel line/s needs to be installed. Is there a piece of fuel line that needs to be ran from the top of the bubble into the bottom of the tank from the bottom of the fitting? Sorry for all of the questions.
Good info, used some curved hemostats (surgeon style pliers you see medics clamping onto arteries in ww2/nam movies) Fits in the gas tank perfectly to clamp onto the cut needlepoint in the hose you mentioned. Cheap too.
Those are an awesome tool to have around... very useful for machines where the gas cap hole is in a awkward spot (for me, certain back pack blowers come to mind.) That and it feels cool using them.
Great job with the video, really well done. I'm having an issue with a 120 mark 2 and was wondering if you've ever had to replace the fuel tank vent on one. Same setup as the 235/40 but I can't find any info on how that sucker comes out. Thanks for the video! Subbed.
Execellent video. I'm replacing my 235 carburetor and fuel lines now. Any suggestions on how to replace the fuel line that travels from the bubble back to the fuel tank? looks like it has something at the end of the line inside the tank that keeps it from being removed.
Yes the white piece on the end of the fuel line is just for that, to keep it from pulling out. Easier to pull it out through the gas tank, and put the piece back on similar to the fuel filter. Sorry for the delayed reply, hope this helps.
Great info. Helped me out a ton! I have ONE question though. Do both hoses in the tank have a filter on them? One had a filter the other didn’t in my case.
Where do those two wires go. I can see where the yellow goes but the other one fell off when I was changing the carb and I can’t figure out where it was
This is about as simple and straightforward as it gets. Great fuel line vid, the best I found. If I can understand it so can anyone. Just one question, maybe 2: How far into the tank does the return line need to be? Does it really need that little nipple on the end? How much play is needed in the line with the fuel filter? No doubt it's going to move around, but is there a goal with how it lays and where the filter usually drops?
Putting my chainsaw back together, I ran into a problem. No matter what I do I can not get the fuel line back through the whole to the tank. I tried lubing it and shaving the tip of the tubing. I need suggestions. Thanks
