They make that unit look pretty but all that plastic makes it a pain to work on. What is wrong with simple. That snow blower is probably perfect for the amount of snow we get. Thanks Bruce. Stevo
I was thinking that as clean as that carb looked that the idle circuit jet slightly enlarged with micro drill bit would do the trick. Probably lean from factory as many are.
Yes. The owner wanted it back as snow was coming the next day. I wanted to order a new carb but he was in a hurry. When it came to me it surged under load. Now at least it surges a bit at idle but not under load. Thanks for watching.
Oh I see. I wondered why there wasn't a pt 2 coming. I said to myself, something is up, the master never leaves his sick small engines just a little sick. He always heals them.
Bruce I have a Toro power lite 98cc and I try everything to get the surge out. The engine rpm are between 4300-4500 and carburetor been clean and rebuilt. I even check the muffler port for blockage and nothing.
OK these devils surge from the factory. The best thing you can do if you want to is ream out the main jet and the idle jet (just a tiny bit with micro drill bits). Even after doing that to this one it still surged a bit. Lawn mowers have the blade that acts like a larger flywheel so they don't surge as much. Good luck. If it smooths out when blowing snow (as a non mechanic) I would leave it as reaming it out is a bit dicey if you are not confident. Bruce
@@BrucesShop I did that as well and nothing. I guess there is always one that is a pain in the ass🤣😂🤣I cover all aspects and nothing. I been working in two-stroke engines for a while now. But this one is the winner😂🤣😂🤣
Nice to watch your videos on a cold and stormy day burrrrrrrrrrr so cold
Glad you like them!
Ibruce,it's always a pleasure to watch you working. Nice work . Thanks

Yes it was!
Good morning and Happy New Year from NB

Same to you!
Nice work Mr Bruce, purring like a kitten. 👍🙂
Well I sure had my share of these single stage throwers this year.
I would imagine

You are welcome.
It took a little bit to get all that plastic off there awesome job thank you for the video
Thanks for watching
That's great! I got a battery power snow blower for Christmas it runs on two 24 volt batteries. All I need now is some snow to try it out on.
Right on.

Well thanks for commenting.
I heard the shrouding traps a bit of heat that slows carburetor icing but I do not know if that's true.
Very cold in Nova Scotia
I heard that!!!
Before you know it in a few months you'll be flooded with Lawnmowers Bruce!Thnx for the video..
Well you are right. There will be snow until April
Nice work again Mr bruce 😊 that is a nice honda snow thrower
Thanks 👍
@@BrucesShop your welcome sir 👍

You are so right. This one surges a bit when i was done but very usable.
Hot coffee and Bruce..... what ever do you need 😊 great job brother 👏 thanks for sharing 👍 🙏
Thanks a lot for watching.
Ream out the little jet under the black plastic screw with a mini drill bit. It almost always works to stop surging on Hondas.
You are absolutely correct.
Nice job Bruce. It surely does run better but isn't it so frustrating when you do all that and it still has that surge....

Single stage snow blower powered by my favorite engine a HONDA got to get all that BAD GAS out of the gas tank
Thanks Robert
How's she goin'? Issues, issues issues, but you took them on one at a time and now it's runs like a Honda!! LOL
Yes This one concerned me as it still surged a bit but not under load. These new carbs are driving me crazy. Thanks again for joining in sir.

Nice. Did you consider it may have a vacuum leak causing it to run lean?
Gosh the carb clamps onto the intake. That is a good point though.
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

I take it the neighbor is snowblower eh?
This one is from the other side of town if that is what you mean.
No. The noise during the video.
