Three minutes and 45 seconds in and you told me how to fix my problem. Thank you!!!
Got a rotoriller running that sat for years thanks to this entertaining and informative video. Clogged main and rusty tank. Thanks!
Even though I know or have dealt with a lot of issues you go over, I still watch each one. Thank you for taking all the time ya'll take to make these videos. Don't let me fool you guys; I learn alot from your videos. Do a little on a aerator, a Classen or Lawnaire IV. Since it is season. I would like to see if you know any tricks to what I do. Thanks guys!!!!
Excellent instructional video for these 5hp B&S's fuel system. I've got three (yeah, they common as dirt) I have to maintain, and you hit all the "sore spots". The pick-up tube repair/replacement trick is ingenious -- gotta try that one.
If folks don't want to invest in a set of torch tip cleaners (me), I've found that a section of wound acoustic guitar string works just as well. The winds abrade any crud away fairly well and you can get different gauges but I find the medium gauge "G" string usually fills the bill. (No "G" string jokes, please. LOL. )
Love your stuff, T.D. You da man. Keep 'em comin'.
Oh, man. Taryl is a riot. learned most everything I needed to get the carb working proper and had a good time doing it . Thanks
Been watching your videos all summer and find it's cool and fun to learn at your shop. Keep up the videos please.
Great video! Just what I needed, as my older, similar pulsa-jet carb off a 5PH Briggs needs new pickup tubes. Great ideas on how to refabricate these tubes! Thank you very much!
Great video!
I too have an older Briggs for a mini bike with this type of carb/tank setup. I like the pickup tube fix idea...
Thank you for all your great videos. They are very helpfull.
Thank Taryl and glad to see you keeping yourself physically fit. I'd be played out within 10 seconds of the first round. I have one of those old engines that had an extra shaft sticking out It was in the way my drive chain so I cut it off. I guess I'm gonna get to work taking it apart now
Hysterical and informative. Love it!
A now-classic video. Thanks Taryl.
Good work ! My grandpa likes your videos!
Tarryl thx. For all your videos. Always I learn a few tips or more from you
Great video man. Thanks for all the info.
I dont even own half of the stuff Taryl fixes but I like learning from him 😄
Always the best. Thanks Taryl.
Hey taryl enjoy your videos, I used the tip of a soldering iron to widen the pick up tube , it worked good.
Awesome video, I always get a good laugh from you guys and learn something new.
Just found you guys, Holy smokes lets keep it rolling! Love the channel
Been a fan for several years. Keep watching more vids. Taryl is a great guy. Very knowledgeable and he's got a great crew behind him
that's a good one ! saved me lots of money! thanks for my dinner! !!
….thanks...great video....helped a lot with my repair...
Taryl knows everything!
Hey, great information! I needed to replace the pick up fuel line. It was cracked just like you showed. Yeppers, replaced it with a piece of brake tubing. Zoom Zoom, I'm back to work!
Excellent Video..............
great job taryl great info keep em commen
Thanks for the part numbers
..Good info Taryl!! Get you a pair of those Garden Anvil Pruners to cut plastic and rubber hoses. The Straight blade kind. They Cut through that stuff clean...
Very well explained
He is a national treasure !!!
Thanks Taryl. My Briggs and Stratton 3.5 would not run. After taking it apart the pick up screen on the pick up tube was covered in debris. It looks like a thin layer of felt. I cleaned off the filter and bowl and all the ports. Put a new diaphragm and put it all back together and it runs great again.
Thanks for the help
I use bb's to shake inside tank
Thats the shit thanks taryl iam down under in oz (australia) watch your vids ,love them this must be the best video on this carbi rebuild.will give it a wirl and see what happens .
thanks taryl. just got my old log splitter going thats got one of them old 5hp briggs. no rust in gas tank but it got bunch of water in it sometime during that big storm we had. I syphoned tank of gassed water but water was probably still in that float bowl. got it popping with starter fluid and after a dozen times of it starting and dying it finally started running again on the no ethanol gas we got here at farmers coop. I sure do appreciate the clear explanation you do on how it all works and goes together and how to fix it properly not like the fools that got a high quality shade tree shop that dont know what the heck they talking about
I cant tell if this is a character or if its really him. either way it helped a ton! thanks taryl
Brilliant!! As always....
Taryl,
I've been messing with small engines for the last 63 years. Never in all those years have I ever heard of a split fuel pickup tube. But I am working on a Briggs 5 hp right now that would not run after I cleaned and rebuilt the carburetor. So I watched your video and then took the tank back off and sure enough the dang brass tube was split all the way down the side.
Why would they design these like this? Have you figured out what makes them split? Is it metal fatigue from the vibration or what?
After watching your solution which I liked just fine I tried something else. I soldered up the split which took a while but I finally got a good solder joint. I put it back together using superglue to make sure it would stay like you suggested. Engine runs like a dream now.
Thank you very much. I never in a million years would have thought to look for a split in the tube. You are the man.
Dang, you are a pretty fellow, I must say. You Know it is fixed when Taryl puts the stank eye on it. Excellent advice my friend that pickup tube was giving me fits
SECOND "LIKE" Thanks Taryl, that super-glue being impervious to gasoline, I am going to try to seal pin holes in bowl equivalent. Since, there are no leaks in the tank, only pin holes in the bowl, with your tip, I bet this works! Thanks Taryl.
Taryl I just picked up a chipper with the same 5hp B&S but the pull cord or flywheel were frozen. When i drained the oil and gas tank it looked like it had been sitting at at the bottom of a lake for a while. Surprisingly I hit the the thang with some WD and fresh oil overnight and wouldnt you know it started! I have to rebuild the carb and clean the tank out real good tho since it only starts with starter fluid.
I tried this but failed. My Briggs has a Carpetrator, so unfortunately this video about Carburetor repair did not help me :) But the video was top shelf and I love this channel.
Stay gold.
The goofy side is well respected brother. This video helped me get my 5hp B&S on a tiller I bought for 60 bucks up and running. It must of sat for years and the diaphragm was rotted and stiff. I'm good to go.....yeee
i put a short piece of trimmer fuel line and a fuel filter on the tube works great
Taryl, this video showed me how to fix my Pulsa Jet Carb on my Mclane mower. Also the rubber elbow and pipe connection at the engine that pulses the carb had cracks in it which made it hard starting. New rubber parts and now it starts first pull.
EXACTLY. The pumping action is caused by the crankcase breather hose connected TO the carb. There are 2 rubber hoses, one 45 degree and the other 90 degree. The 45 down on the breather and the 90 at the carb.
McLane!!
Guitar strings are just like those files you use on them jets. Game changer for me years ago hope it helps
Never thought about that , but yes they would work , as long as they are the metal ones. I hear there
are plastic or nylon strings. I have use the torch tip cleaners for years. It is imperative to get the main jet as clear as when it was new.
Hi trex i took my ride on mower to my local mower repair dude and he told me it wasn't worth fixing and i should sell it to him for $200 that cost me $1000 only two week prior thanks to your vids i spent $13.50 ond a new head gasket $10 on a set of feelers and now my mower has never ran better ffffuuuccckkk yeah bud
Who is Trex?
Yea can’t trust some folks or companies mostly for trying to make a lot of new parts that fail way quicker if you ask me .
You can also use a small piece of fuel line, with an end filter. Just slip fuel line over brass tube, and slip end filter on tubing. Real simple.
No you can't. Fuel will eat the hose from the outside of it. If your fix was factual, Taryl would be using it.
@@rickjames6948 Better go tell the chainsaw guys not to do that.
@@rickjames6948 what!!!
@@rickjames6948you’re an idiot it’s okay.
Also secure the process you, can use Krazy glue mixed with baking soda and it might help work.
I've had to do a similar thing to the inlet manifold on a Nissan RB25 inlet manifold, the coolant inlet spigot was rusted out so I went to the radiator shop & they gave me a 1 3/8 inch brass spigot off a radiator, I ground it down so it would be a nice press fit,applied some non hardening gasket cement onto the spigot then tapped it into the manifold with a block of wood & a hammer,it served its purpose well.
The car had been sitting around for 4 years with fuel in it,somehow water got into the fuel tank & rusted the inside of the tank.
In the future,I'm going to descale the fuel tank with diluted hydrochloric acid which I have a bottle of then perhaps seal the inside of the tank.
Taryl I have a Craftsman Reel Mower with that carb an has always ran rich.Coil checks out.Clean carb w/new pump an all new gaskets.Anything you can tell me to look for to solve it,thanks Gene.
I wish there could be a part 2 where adjusting the low speed mix is shown. Thanks and cheers from Sweden!
What you Sweed's don't know how to turn a screwdriver? No schools over there?
Glad you're back
Hey buddy.. I had a few weeds growing inside a large sandbox. I didn't feel like plucking them by hand so i went ahead and fired up my 21" briggs mower to mow the weeds down. I had the air filter and the air filter housing off because i figured id let the carb get a breath of fresh air with a wide open throttle and choke... Besides, with all that sand and dust flying everywhere i didn't want to get my new air filter dirty. Before i fired her up i checked the oil.. It was a little bit shy on oil and i couldn't find any oil around so just went on ahead and filled the crank case up with some sawdust and the gas tasted a bit bland so i went ahead and added some sugar and sweet n low to sweeten it up a little. Anyhow... After i got done mowing the sandbox i decided to go on and mow a couple of rock beds while i was at it. So a couple days later i fired her up to mow a cactus garden and it started stalling out. Think it could be the carb needs cleaning?
Thanks
I have one of these carbs on a YTD tiller. Took a while to find the correct carb kit. I ended up reinstalling original Jet and needle.
What im not clear on is the proper adjustment on this model. Or what the min/max idle should be.
Thanks again for good info.
4:30 you get that? ha ha ha ha, i love these videos.
COOL!
Merry Christmas! /great videos.I have a carburetor like the one you are rebuilding, however my problem is that someone didn't close the choke valve when taking the air cleaner assembly off and couple of screws fell into the throat chamber and jammed
the throttle valve butterfly valve. I took the valve apart (it's a flat sheet metal disc with some scratch markings on it and two small holes with screw hole in the middle. I can't recall how it was positioned on the pivot shaft because it was really deep in the bore and hard to see when I removed the center screw. Can you tell me how I need to position it on the pivot shaft?
The biros' in the pocket get me. lol
when ever I get stuck on something.. I search for the smart guy right here
Got a California mower and I want to use in a go kart but only starts on carb spray thanks for uploading
Great video! I have one of these carbs on a 5 HP B&S powering an old Roto-Hoe shredder. It's a new carb. The problem is that the pump doesn't fill the "float bowl". I can pull the carb and fill the bowl with gas and the engine will run until the bowl is empty, and then die. I used epoxy to seal the connection between the metal part of the tube and the plastic part to make sure it is airtight, but that didn't help. All the passages in the carb that fill the bowl are clear. I'm thinking maybe a new pump diaphragm might fix it. I can't think of what else it could be. The float bowl doesn't leak.
my 5hp briggs has a carb like that but it has a pull choke can I use the carb like in the video instead of the pull choke one. a 397135 to replace the 299437 carb.
Hi Daryl, great work, where do you get the rebuild kits for the carburetor, ? thanks
Question: I have the same engine ( except it is for a go kart ) the carb works great except someone let it sit for years. The “float bowl” in the tank is completely gone. BS does not sell the tank anymore. Tanks I can find are $130+. I can buy a harbor freight motor for $150. Do you have any suggestions?
👍Good info👍😆😆😆
My carburetor bolt (bottom) has stripped the hole in the engine.
What is the best way to repair the engine stripped bolt hole? Think it’s a 5 hp tecumceh. On a 2006 LawnBoy Sens a speed push mower👍
Thx👍
That’s a place for me to work there all crazy 😜
I bought a new cheap carb and was wondering if they all have a spiral insert in the venturi or if just mine does.
I replaced my carb with a cheap eBay one. Briggs stopped making the OEM, so I had to do a little retrofitting to make it work. Now when I throw the choke to run the machines rpms want to sky rocket more than I want. I immediately choke it back down but then the machines performance gets sluggish. Any recommendations for fixing this? I see that you said the screw at the base is a slow speed adjustment, is there a high anywhere or an choke adjustment? Also is there supposed to be a spring in that low speed adjustment?
That background music................really? Oddly it fits.
God information. Just rebuilt and restarted a tiller with that carb setup. Brass tube was showing a crack but I just left it and added a new plastic pickup tube like factory. Now, there is a leak somewhere from the carb. Nothing major but enough to notice and I plan on selling the tiller so the leak needs not be there.
Anyhow, appreciate the good information. Apparently you have a following at 1.5K + likes of which I am one.
Great vid Mr Tarly!! I have same carb setup on a Western Auto tiller. After engine is shut off (air cleaner removed), I can see fuel filling the carburetor throat. The gas tank is venting through the cart. Any ideas on what causes that? The gas cap on the tiller is non-vented, so I assume the tank is designed to vent through the cart. But instead of venting fumes, liquid fuel is being pushed up from tank and flooding carb. Thank you.
Today I found the vent hole in the carb body plugged with a mud dauber nest. Cleared the vent and now engine runs great.
OOHHH 😁
Thank you
Every time I watch these videos , my wife walks around the living room singing, "Ass craaaak, now... And there's your dinner!"
Enjoy 😉 watching
I have the same tank and it had 2 sponges inside the tank. I removed those to clean the tank. Will it run ok without the sponges installed because I am not sure how to get them back in the same spot ?
I thought I was the only one that uses torch tip cleaners you're the second person I've ever seen do it.
Use them if you want to ENLARGE the jet size and wonder why the plug is BLACK from it. Dummy squad......
What might cause a new carb to not be able to draw fuel out of the tank with the diaphragm pump? I'm going crazy trying to get this 5 horse B&S running. Just finished putting a new head gasket on as well as doing a valve job. It appears to have good compression. What else could be wrong???
Mr.Dactal,
You're the best.
What goes first ?.Spring ,then ring or ring then spring ,when assembling carb?
i really want the outro music as my phone's ringtone (@ 9:40)
on the mark
What do you call that white work surface you have in some of your videos? Looks like it may be disposable paper or plastic. What's it called/ where do you get it? Thanks.
I have an 1982 briggs 5 hp with an old carb/ pull out choke, after replacing the gasket between the carb and the tank it still continues to leak gas heavily. Any ideas on a fix, I'm guessing the tank and or carb flange is not exactly straight. Thank for any input.
Is Krazy Glue really that good ? Which is better Krazy Glue or Seal All which can be found at Dollar General. I have the same cracked pickup tube. It's a hairline crack almost the length of the brass tube. Which glue should I use ? Krazy Glue or Seal-All glue ?
I installed a new carburetor like this one. It won't start, like it's not getting fuel. Does the little bowl in the tank fill up on its own after a few pulls? Or did I need to put some fuel in the bowl before putting it all back together?
Los Straitjackets in podunk! yeah baby..
Man, I learned a lot about this carb! Thanks a bunch! I’m glad you described how that fuel pump works. Great explanation of how the carb works and the how-to of fixing!
Love the video presentation! I kept imagining Adam Sandler do the video!
The crazy eyes are hilarious
I fought one for 4 hours today. I will do the Taryl Victory Dance if it runs
I have one of these and it surges...cleaned and rebuilt it too
There's clean and there's CLEAN. Carb is stil dirty or the gaskets failed or the pickup tube is cracked. All just like in the video.
I am having a lean problem . It will run about 2/3 choke. I want to clean the tank. Mine has a filter like substance in the tank. Is that something you try to get out before cleaning?
Nice video, just what I needed. By the way, you got a pen I can borrow?
What's the background music? I like it.
Question for y`all. I cleaned the carb and replaced the diaphragm, seemed to run great. The next day I tried to start it and it ran for about 15 - 20 seconds. I noticed the carb was flooding out, so I took the gas cap off and it drained out. Is it the gas cap, a gasket leak issue, a fuel setting, or maybe all of the above? Thanx in advance.
Hey Taryl
Great video, guys! Have a question. Have the Briggs 130202 5hp.The small pickup tube snapped off. Do you with your vast knowledge know the part number? I looked and can't find it; just the long pickup plastic tube number is available. Greatly appreciate if you can. Many thanks
Hello Taryl, hope you can help, I have a 5hp BnS engine, bought a new pulsa carb for it, and I found that it is not pumping gas into the bowl. I can put gas in the bowl and run the engine, so the main intake is working, but once the bowl is empty the engine stops. I can cover the main air intake on the carb and then it seems like the pump will pull some gas and the engine will try to start. If I uncover the hole I get absolutely nothing as far as the engine firing. Another piece of info, the gas tank is old, it has rust inside and has those plastic compartments to keep the gas from sloshing around. Don't know if that would lend to the issue. With those compartments I don't see how any of the recommended cleaning strategies would work. I've scraped off what I can reach, shaken it up with gas, and drained. Did that a few times. Seems like air being sucked in somewhere and that is not allowing enough suction for the gas to be pulled up but I can't find where that can be. Your thoughts on what I can check. Thx.
Did you ever figure this out? I have the exact same problem. I bought a new tank and just tried a new head gasket and resurfaced the valves. It's driving me nuts.
Lmfao i just remembered when we were kids my buddys dad had a old Olympic skidoo behind his shed and we would pee in the gas tank all Sumner and then his dad would try to get it goin in the winter and be out there siphoning the gas lol, i feel horrible now
What is thst type of brake tubing? Trying to find some on amazon. PVF coated?
Great video, but how does the Pulsa jet carb come off the tank? Yes i removed the screws!
