Always enjoyable to watch and listen to a knowledgeable individual on a subject they know and live. You are getting comfortable with the camera Donny. Nice wee insight into kart racing too. Thank you for sharing.
This old guy in Nebraska certainly enjoys, learns and appreciates your informative videos. The ride around the race track was a real thrill also. Keep blest my friend.

my name is chris messer it just so happens i just got done with a 10 10s and couldnt get the carb right same carb and you saved the day donny unbelieavable
Thanks for another great video! You sure have a lot of important knowledge to share, that only comes with experience. Thanks for the help Mr Walker it's greatly appreciated 👍👍💪💪😁😎!
If the changes you’ve made to the 462 can I send mine back for you to add the changes. And great break down on the crabs. Keep them videos coming Donny
Great video Donny. I have an Echo CS300 that I rebuilt the carb on. It cranks easy, idles well and revs. I have tuned it with a tach so everything should be right. However, as soon as you put it in the wood it dies. It’s passed a pressure/vacuum test, exhaust screen is clean, tank vent is functional. I don’t what else to check.
So the high speed adjustment seemed to do the trick. It is running much better but could possibly have a compression issue as it is an old saw. Thanks and keep the videos coming.
Thank you for all the great advise and tips! What is the best thing to clean the inside of the carb without ruining the check valve disk and drying them out? Also best thing besides gas to spray into the carb to get it to start without ruining the diaprham disc or anything rubber? Thanks for all you do for us new mechanics you a class act buddy. Have a wonderful day.
Always like to be learning, A great little lesson. The tillotson carby on the stihl 024 has a little white plastic fuel turret or elbow can they be sourced else were or a mother manufacturer as they seem very hard to get here in Australia from stihl. Cheers
Thanks Donny! Any help on the Echo CS7310p carburetors would be good too. Need special tools to remove the limiter caps and adjust the carb apparently. Thanks again!
Nice simple informative no fluff video thanks Donny.Just wondering if you could explain the purpose of a check valve that are in some carburetors?. I think over the years iv stuffed a few with to much compressed air cheers.
Thanks for the great Video ! I have a Stihl 461that I just acquired. It had plastic limiter caps on on Carb and I couldn’t get it rich enough on high end so I removed them destroyed them in the process. I can get it adjusted great now but seems like the mixture screws will vibrate loose now. What do you recommend to remedy this ????????
Hello, thank you for the great carburetor run down. Question i had is different from the subject at hand but are the Remington super 770 chainsaws a west bend engine. Just wondering who cast these engines? Thanks for the great content.✊✊👍
Hi donny, I've just bought a used 576xp 2015, just wondered if you have an opinion on them or if there's anything look out for on them. Thanks Jon from the UK.
really good info donny. my q is on the 500i stihl , with carb saws they pick up just before they run out of fuel, do the injections give that little warning rev up? ( I ride an injection 1200 BMW, no warning just stops!) and i have 2 076 super av heads on an alaskan mill (4ft bar) they have a phenolic intake manifold block that cracks 1) can i repair it with jb weld and reinforce the rep with jb weld and thin aluminium sheet ? 2) can they still be got? thanks from treewrightz
Good lesson, thank you. Just went thru my 61 carb. The needle the shop sold me was all metal. The one I took out, and eventually re-used had a rubber tip. Question: Do the on-line kits had that rubber tipped needle, or where can I get that variety? 👍
any chance for a hopped up Holzfforma g372 project? tough times out here for some of us and we gotta get by until we can afford those shiney orange huskys.
I just put a new Chinese coil on my makita 6401 and it won’t run right. I was thinking carb and impulse line but I’m really not sure of the symptoms. Idols great but starts misses at rpm. Was gonna get a carb kit but do you think the cheap coil could be the issue? I guess what I want to know is how does a saw run when it has a bad pulse line?
Great video Donny, I have same Tillotson as the first one you worked on running on my Dolmar CA 113 but it's now taking in too much fuel, what's the cause for that? Stay Safe Donny.
Hey Donny! Got a quick question about a little Stihl MS260 Walbro WT. Carb is spotless, fuel line good, intake boot like new. Runs good and holds a tune on the high side but will get rich and stall at idle, only if you pick it up off the ground or tip it around, if you hold it steady she'll idle all day. It fires up rich after it stalls, clear it out and idles fine again. I believe I've narrowed it down to the main nozzle check valve leaking? Or would that make it lean? Maybe fuel puddling issue? It's had this issue since I got it, I bought it barely used for cheap because of this. Like to hear your thoughts on this if possible thanks! Annoyed and makes me love my Huskys (353 and 365) that much more haha! Cheers from the Cariboo
I think I may have figured out my issue.. Pulled the carb off and looked down the intake, there's basically a wall of plating on the lower edge of the port, sticks up 1/16" or so. Looks like the fuel would puddle there then get sucked in when tipped. Lack of quality control on Stihls part?? Ever encountered this?
Hey donny I did a port and polish on a stihl 271 carb now I cant get the rpms down and I mean it is running extremely lean....and the saw will no longer ajust the high and low speed idle no matter how much I turn the screws you think it's an air leak????
Hi Donny! I have a jonsered 910e. I just put a carb kit in it hs 199a tilletson. I can only get it started with fuel thumb throttle body and when it does run the fuel just pools up in there like it’s not metering it at all. Turning the Jets all the way in doesn’t matter nothing I do affects it I’ve tried adjusting the metering level up and down and it seems like it’s completely sealed.
@@donnywalker4691 i have done both of those. The needle and seat are holding pressure and the metering lever is at the right height. I’ve also tried it too low and high. It maybe made it flood less or more but never will start on its own. I replaced the fuel filter fuel and impulse line as well. I think I just need to try a new carb?
Did you remove welsh plugs and and clean the jet holes if a tillitson holds pressure and set up right 90 % off time they work you sure your not missing something with motor
@@donnywalker4691 I did remove the Welch plugs and can confirm every passage is letting fluid through. Could this be something to do with impulse then?
Hey Donnie I've got a question about a 660 stihl Ive had it all the way down to the intake at the cylinder, can't find any leaks or thing really that has been damaged, I've adjusted the carb from all the way in to all the way out, it's gotta no torque it revs fine, runs fine with no load, runs fine in the wood, with no pressure but just a straight down cut I can put enough pressure on to stop the cut with one finger please help I've taken it to three local dealers with no answers and the other issue is the carb screen keeps getting clogged with fines untill no start I take it apart clean runs good but still no torque revs fine just still no power at all please help
I have a old echo 452vl which has a tillotson hu9c821 carb....I seem to be having an over fueling issue...I've lowered the needle level...and still over fueling....can you recommend what I should do
I’ve got a tilloston carb that goes on my TC 300 series 2cycle engine & the spacer block fell out when I was taking the carb off & it has the hole for the internal pulse & I’m unsure which way it goes back The holes don’t line up but it has a channel that runs to the other side. Does the channel face the engine or face the carb?
don I got a 55 rancher that broke one of the tabs on the cylinder for the muller bolts...are the cylinders on amazon worth changing?...buddy down here in nova scotia says they are softer and wont last?...any feed back you be great...sent you afriend reqest on fb too bud...love yah guys with buckin!!
@@donnywalker4691 ok cool...yah just my little trailsaw....spot welded a little dad on the bolt so she would hold in her grove better....she's good to go for now...nice and tight.....got a couple old Canadian granpaw used...ever hear of them?
My 61 died yesterday. The trigger broke and it is flooding badly. I can tip it over and gas comes out the exhaust. Im guessing my needle is stuck open. Do you think there would be more problems other then that?
@@donnywalker4691 not sure the brand. I have taken it apart 5 times ready. I will find out soon. Thanks for the reply. Are you interested in seeing a tree i fell on Sunday with it?
