I have easy to follow and thorough step by step tutorials "do it yourself" (DIY) videos to help you with your broken lawn and garden equipment including snowblowers and zero turn mowers.
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 whacker, 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, zero turn mower, 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!

Hago todo lo posible para enseñarle cómo diagnosticar fácilmente problemas de la manera más rápida, rápida y eficiente con reparaciones reales más allá de simplemente reemplazar una bujía. Estos consejos son tanto para el dueño de la casa como para el dueño de la tienda.
Ya sea un motor manual de dos tiempos y dos ciclos como una motosierra, un desmalezador, un desmalezador, una cortadora de hilo, una cortadora de césped, una cortadora de hilo, una cortadora de setos, una podadora, una desbrozadora, un soplador de hojas o unidades de cuatro tiempos y cuatro ciclos como una cortadora de césped, una cortadora de leña, un tractor cortacésped, una cortadora de césped de giro cero, una sopladora de nieve, una lavadora a presión, un generador o una cortadora de césped que necesita que se instalen o reemplacen piezas, soy su persona indicada.
He sido mecánico de motores pequeños durante muchas décadas y también dirijo mi propio taller de reparación, por lo que mis videos están repletos de consejos y trucos que he aprendido y quiero compartir con ustedes.

i bought an old XL-1 Homelite chainsaw at auction a few years ago. From the early 70's. Light blue in color. Excellent shape. Just needed a few fixes. Replaced the fuel lines, fuel filter and the air filter. Started up right away. Since this was a collector's item I eventually sold it to a collector in the US. He was extremely happy with it.

It's hard to make money on old equipment, but for me, it's a labor of love when it comes to machines like this. You have to preserve some of the old ones for the future, so we don't forget about them. Equipment like this isn't taken care of or preserved the same way a muscle car is. They get harder and harder to find in decent condition, particularly when you factor in the difficulty in finding parts for them. I love seeing one saved. This was worth saving, and would look great with a light restoration.

I'm not sure what I'm more impressed with; the design engineering that went into making this saw or your knowledge and experience in resurrecting this saw from the dead after 20+ years. I was a little surprised you didn't check the gap on the original plug unless it wasn't important at that stage or maybe you checked it off camera(?) Same goes for the new plug. Great video. I love these old machines.

Kool. I cut my teeth on the old Homelite Super XL , XL 12 and the Super XL 925s. Worked in the logging industry my whole life, 42 years. And have run and worn out many 925s in those years. It even sounds like the old Super XLs. Love the video. Thanks for the memories.

Being born in 1955, coming up, I worked on my Mother's cars. They all had points and a condenser. I learned how to work on the points and adjust the timing at a young age. What a blast from the past, piece of nostalgia. Nice one, Don! 👍👍 Later in life, I built my own timing light from a schematic and parts list in Popular Mechanics, or something like that. I still have a points file. I don't use it for points anymore, but it comes in handy for all kinds of things. I didn't know about using 320 and 400 grit paper on the points back then, though, but the procedure always worked and lasted a good while.

@greenmirror5555
@greenmirror5555 7 месяцев назад
Might pop that cover off and re-gap the points...if you look above the point box the casting says set points at .015", you're not terrible going to .020" but it will definitely work the electrons harder. I also think bringing the multimeter out and seeing where things are not finding good connection is 80% of all saw problems...a life of oil, wood chips, and vibration! Just noticed you were also fighting the mixture adjustment on the bench cause the choke was a bit closed...I did that just the other day on a old homelite myself, butterflies gotta be wide open to get WOT!

The old Homelites ran on a mixture of 16:1. Cutting timber in a laurel patch ( Rhododendron) the fumes were so thick it would choke you. Lol
@zing2002
@zing2002 7 месяцев назад
I have the original owner's manual for this PL-4 saw, and it says 16:1 mixture, but of course modern oils are better now than way back when, so, could probably get away with 32:1 or maybe even 40:1.
@michaelspencer301
@michaelspencer301 6 месяцев назад
@zing2002 I agree . 40:1 should be fine as long as the saw is adjusted for it. It was common practice with the Super XL 925s to, on occasion take the muffler off ,run the piston up, and scrap the carbon out of the exhaust port.
