  • Servicing and repairing a Briggs and Stratton Pulsa Jet carburetor is fairly simple, but don’t miss these essential steps when doing so! If your small engine isn’t running well, it’s surging or won’t start at all, this DIY tutorial covers everything you need to know to diagnose, service and repair them. Once you’ve learn’t the principles I show here, that same knowledge can be applied to many other carburetors including those found on Honda engines, Kohler, Stihl, Husqvarna and many other small engine carburetors you will come across!

    Thank you. I replaced the diaphragm and the passages "looked" to be clog free but I didn't check the main jet and the engine is "hunting" (surging) and I have to run it with the choke halfway closed. I'll take it off again and be more thorough. Great tips!

    I have this carb on an older 5hp Briggs. It runs, but I can't get the diaphragm cover to stop leaking. Thought at first it was the new Chinese diaphragm I had installed, so got an OEM Briggs one which didn't leak as bad, but still leaking. Next took the diaphragm cover off and found it was slightly warped (probably from muffler heat), so sanded it smooth with sandpaper on a piece of glass and got it flat. Still leaks and don't know where to go next???

    • @VintageEngineRepairs
      @VintageEngineRepairs  Před 20 dny

      Hey, flatten both sides :) why they never used a gasket on them I don’t know, but that said, none of mine have leaked so it does work I guess!

    My carb pumps from tank to bowl and then floods carb any idea why it wont spray into the engine
    I cleaned the carb with carb cleaner and every hole is clean and clear . Any info woukd be appreciated thanks

    • @VintageEngineRepairs
      @VintageEngineRepairs  Před 3 měsíci

      Hmm interesting, when you say floods the carb, how can you tell? What are the signs and symptoms? It could be an engine timing issue blowing air back through the intake?

    • @JACKHAMMER82A1
      @JACKHAMMER82A1 Před 3 měsíci

      The air filter tray is off and can see fuel puddle in carb, i was thinking might be timing or valve clearance issue. Want try easier way first. Any chance might be the needle jet bot set properly or governor rod not working. I fix my own stuff and not a professional I thank you for responding

      You can do :) generally I decide depending on the condition of the carb. Just be careful with carb cleaner on o-rings and rubber parts!

    The main reason why Briggs & Stratton made the pulse carburetor, was as the fuel tank gets low on fuel it leans out the engine. So this was a great sick so the engine would run at the same amount of fuel no matter how much she was in the bigger tank that pump the gas into little bowl that had inside the big tank.
