Yamaha Carb Cleaning 

This is great! The only video I’ve found that doesn’t require you to completely disassemble the generator to get to the carburetor. Saved me tons of time. This guy knows what he is doing.

The Harbor Freight Predator 2000W Inverter Generator looks like a clone of the Yamaha. This helped me fix the idle circuit on the carb. Thanks

The trick for pulling the posts was great. Makes removing the carb Much Easier. Followed his steps, my genny started on first pull! Hadn’t started in over a year Thank you for posting 👍

Exactly what I was looking for. I appreciate this wasn’t one of those “let’s learn together” videos where the person really has no idea what they’re getting into. Cheers and thanks.

If you Yammy is just surging it most likely is the pilot jet. That is the only thing you need to replace. Once you have the carburetor free, do not disconnect anything from the carburetor except the 2 long phillips head screws that hold the top on. Do not diconnect the fuel line or choke cable, no need. With the carb free just swing the spring loaded arm to the side and take out the jet retainer that holds the pilot jet in place using a phillips screw driver. It can be difficult to clean if cloged for long. Pilot jet part number replacement is 7cu-e4142-37-ao can be ordered online. Very easy to replace.

Nice work brother. thumbs up. the q tip polish in the needle port was a nice touch. the only picky part i could find was you didn't snug slight twist the fuel bowel to you feel a natural solid seat on the gasket Hold in place with slight hand grip and bring the bolt up to grip before releasing the hand pressure before tightening Heheh. nothing worse then a leaky fuel bowel after assembly. Great job brother

Thank you so much for this vid! I had stripped the bottom two bolts preventing me from removing the entire case then the carb. But thanks to your awesome vid carb removal is so easy! Thank you again!

Wow! Obviously a pro, but still able to demonstrate and explain on a level that even I can comprehend ; ) Thanks!!!

The audio was a little low in the beginning, but I got the picture! Because there was too much involved for my ability to clean it, I decided to replace it instead. Your video showed me in perfect clarity the steps I needed to safely remove the carburetor and put it back in. My Predator 2000 sat for over a year without any stabilizer and ended up surging/hunting and I knew I had a problem. In less than two hours, it was sounding like new all over again. The best highlight I got from this was the locking of the nuts together to remove the carb bolts. Excellent, and thank you for a great video. Too bad I can't post the pics I took along the way.

Thank you very much!! 1st time ever doing a carby service and it went off without a hitch. It’s running like new again. Awesome video. 😊

You are a legit hero! Working on my neighbors predator 2000, I knew there was a way to get the carb off without taking the whole thing apart. So glad I found your double nut trick!!!

This was really helpful. I didn't disconnect choke cable or remove smart throttle, just pulled it off, drained and remove bowl and then flipped carb over to clean jets and float. Worked like a charm!

alright, you made that look easy. I just tried.... the outside stud came out no problem with the jam nut solution... the inside one is still there and wouldn't move after an hour of expletives!! Will try again tomorrow night. Thanks for the video very easy to understand and follow. Cheers

I repaired my Yamaha with this video, the trick to pull out the carburator is clever.

Thank you it worked like a charm. Now starts on the first pull. Thank you

Thank you! My low hour ef2000is is running like garbage unless i keep full choke on. While this was more than i expected to get a carb off and clean it i appreciate the video. I'll probably be trying this sometime this weekend so i can hopefully run my AC unit offgrid in a couple weeks while i get my solar power system setup.

Great video! I got both of my EF2000iS generators running again. I have older model gennys and couldn't get the emulsion tubes out but they are running great now anyway. Thanks for the tutorial!

Very GOOD U-TUBE. OUR GENERATOR Started acting up... I watched this Informative clip. I Followed the instructions exactly , final product a beautiful running generator This clip saved my bacon..... A great Big Thank you.....

For this video I fix mine Yamaha inverter which was a year ago in the storage!👏

Best video on RU-vid on this subject. Thanks.
