Easy to follow and thorough step by step tutorials do it yourself (DIY) to help you with your broken lawn and garden equipment including snowblowers.
I do my best to teach you how to easily diagnose problems the fastest, quickest and most efficient way with real repairs beyond just replacing a spark plug. These tips are for both the homeowner and shop owner.
Whether it be a handheld, two stroke, two cycle engine like a chainsaw, weed eater, weed wacker, string trimmer, grass trimmer, line trimmer, hedge trimmer, strimmer, brush cutter, leaf blower, or four stroke, four cycle units like a lawnmower, wood splitter, lawn tractor, snowblower, pressure washer, generator or a ride on mower that needs parts installed or replaced, I’m your go-to guy.
My favorite brands of spark plugs are NGK and Champion and are the ones I recommend.
I’ve been a small engine mechanic for many decades and also run my own repair shop so my videos are loaded with tips and tricks that I have learned and want to share with you. You will also find many tool and product reviews from top brands on my channel as well.
I have the largest Small Engine Repair Video Library on RU-vid and the entire internet with over 1200 videos, just GOOGLE "DONYBOY73"!
I want "DON THE SMALL ENGINE DOCTOR" on RU-vid to save you time, frustration and most importantly, MONEY with my HOW-TO videos!

It is mostly the OEM manufactures themselves, they put it out for bids ,the most economical manufacturer receives the contract or they meet the price point that the OEM's set out for the part .In my trade the parts supplier has moved from China to another poor country.I wonder why, the price point that the consumer will except and buy.If products were made in a higher price point country consumers would not buy it,The ones that did would take extra care of these products and keep them longer. The companies can't have that. that does't make their world go around .

You're kidding right? How is it so sad when Americans got what they wanted? When Americans don't care about buying American because it costs $0.50 more, the only other option is to hope for some government "solution", like a bunch of protectionist tariffs, and if you look up the history of protectionist tariffs, that has economic consequences too. In some countries, people tend to buy local out of a sense of pride or patriotism. In America pride is buying Chinese baseball hats with political parties logos on them and waving Chinese made US flags. Americans love America, they just don't care too much for other Americans.

Great insight. Thanks for this video. I had a Hitachi leaf blower that also had a stiff metering diaphragm that would flood very easily. I ordered a new carburetor and came across this video. I was inspired to actually bent the metering lever down slightly. I had nothing to lose since I have a new carb on the way. When I reassembled the old carb, it worked like a champ. Cold starts too. Thanks!

Donyboy73 I have a question. I got the Kombi unit for stihl. It’s the km56 rc-e. I recently purchased the fs-km attachment. It came with the grass blade for. Can I put the knife blade on it instead of the grass blade for cutting mulch. This attachment is for cutting brush. Why or why not? Stihl dealer said yes. However, on website says no not approved. Very odd
@TheKrayusKorianis
@TheKrayusKorianis 3 года назад
The 56 engines use a cable shaft, not a solid steel shaft. You can only use brush blades that whirl out when RPM is applied, not the solid brush blades with no give because repeated shocks will damage the cable drive shaft.

@@appleztooranges Stihl dealer and tech here. If you use a brush blade on it, over time the weight and centrifugal force from the blade will cause the flex shaft to fray and unwind from the clutch drum. I see this at least once a month. It's not an overly expensive fix at my shop, but this can vary by dealer. If you just have a quick job to do, it probably will not destroy the shaft at first, but repeated use most certainly will.

Just a week ago I got a "rescue trimmer" given to me because it was running gas out the muffler. (FS 55 K). I got the power head, trimmer head, blower, and edger attachments for free. Not knowing that it probably was just the diaphragm, I bought a Oregon brand complete kit and cleaned the carb and it runs like new. I rarely have to buy any outdoor equipment as it is usually given to me or I see it on the side of the road waiting to go to the landfill. Thanks for the very good info on this problem and the advice on the needle arm setting.

Its always good to sit with a coffee and clean hands in the study and watch you showing what I need to be doing out in the shed when I finish the coffee.... You give the preview and we go out and do the same as you've shown... Excellent videos as always. Thank you. Just a tip I'd like to share with people. I do this every season and especially with the line trimmer. I remove the exhaust system, burn it in a wood fire until its red and then blow it out and put it back on with a new gasket. The very first step when I have starting and 'bogging' problems and it fixes them every time.

Hey Don Another great tip. I had an FS40 last week where the low speed screw was very difficult to adjust and the high speed screw had no adjustment whatsoever. Turned it in nothing, out nothing. The diaphragm was hard too. Instead of rebuilding I replaced the carb. However, the OEM carbs from my local dealer last year were $65 Can, this year, $94. Should I have tried to clean and rebuild? I haven’t had much luck with carb kits and don’t like to buy Chinese. Cheers

@rmatthew82 3 года назад
Sometimes it’s the diaphragm gone hard but I could see in this particular machine the glue had let go on the welsh plug. This could cause a few different issues. If the glue jams open the needle then it will flood uncontrollably. If the the glue gets sucked into high speed main jet it will run lean and not rev up. Also since the glue has come off welsh plug it may leak past and bypass straight into transitional ports. In that case it’s always better to fit another OEM carburettor 👍 Cheers Donny 🍻

Hi Dony, my machine sat in the sun one day and there was some gas leakage. I checked the diaphram and it seems fine. With this machine a repair kit costs the price of a new machine and China does not make one. I hate to toss this one out but I have checked spark, filters, everything, it sparks like mad and even injecting some fuel I got nothing but a backfire sometimes, no firing at all. Is it possible spark timing can be out? Does the leaking fuel indicate the diaphram is definitely shot because it feels very soft and is not broken. Maybe I should bend the lever down just a tad? HELP :)

Really good video Don!!! I had to tap the like button a bunch of times for this video because it kept highlighting the thumbs down instead but finally got the thumbs up. Hope that doesnt screw up ur stats. What the difference between an fs 55 & an fs 55R? I have the fs 55R and stihl dealer seemed puzzled by that.

On my brothers Honda GX35 line trimmer it had the opposite effect because it was running lean so maybe not enough fuel was entering the fuel chamber,I don't know. The metering diaphragm was petrified but it wasn't letting enough fuel enter the fuel chamber in the carburetor, maybe it was actually a bit bulged. A leaking main jet check valve will also cause flooding & the engine will also bog down as well. On some carburetors they also have hidden fuel mixture adjustment screws !

How did or do you find the right metering diameter for your model? Say like mine is a black max 25cc?

I don't repair carbs any longer. I just replace them. Been burned on a repair like this only to have some other carb problem once the engine is restarted. Good video though!

Thanks for the info Dony. I have a Ryobi string trimmer that always seems to be flooded. Maybe you found the problem for me. I will check it out.
