    I try really hard not to crank them but a few seconds
    I used primer bottle or spray
    Once I rebuilt carb I prime it with a bottle of gasoline for quick start
    Buying a new starter will wipe out the profit in a heartbeat 😊

    Do you leave the trans fluid in the tire or wait 'til it seals the leak and drain most of it out?

    I've never heard of using ATF to stop leaks. How does that not just seep out the hole ?

    • @Kylebythecreek
      @Kylebythecreek  Před rokem +1

      ATF expands rubber. It works great to expand the rubber tie and close the crack or leak in the tire- just as long as it’s a rather small leak

    I was very disappointed and watching you remove a carburetor claim to have cleaned it, but not show it hmmm and every time you go to start it time your spraying brake cleaner in it and instead of pulling the choke and it shows as you put a rebuilt carb on and used spray with the choke wide open?!?!! That was very disappointing not as experienced as I thought you were ! you should check your videos before you publish them just saying!
