  • Today you'll learn how to clean a carburetor on a Kawasaki Bayou 220 (KLF220). Most power sport carburetors have a similar cleaning procedure.

      a tip : you can watch series at KaldroStream. I've been using it for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.

    Superb mate, by pure chance I was looking for a basic video on carb cleaning ( I'm not a mechanic btw) and it turns out your stripping almost exactly the carb I have ( 250 Kawasaki klf) this was exactly what I needed to see. I was sitting stripping an old carb from a 50cc pitbike ( it was wrecked so it didn't matter if I did any damage). But by pure fluke you've shown me the exact carb....cheers mate.

    A great trick I've found is to soak everything in seafoam for about an hour. It breaks up stuff even carb & choke cleaner doesn't

    Nice video, but i think your camera man broke wind a couple of times trying to throw you off. But your unflappable!!

  • @andrewskoke5132
    @andrewskoke5132 Před 8 lety

    can you use brake cleaner instead of carb cleaner

    • @WeekendHandymen
      @WeekendHandymen  Před 8 lety

      +Andrew Skoke Brake cleaner is very harsh on plastic components and gaskets. Use carb cleaner if you don't plan on replacing your gaskets, floats, and anything else plastic on the carb.

    • @davidmenacool2580
      @davidmenacool2580 Před 5 lety

      no just either use carb or soak it in with a sea foam for about a hour its more efficient

    • @frankie53250
      @frankie53250 Před 3 lety +2

      No that’s a terrible idea. Clean it with carb cleaner it’s like $3 at autozone .

  • @kinghunterx5
    @kinghunterx5 Před 10 lety

    You skipped the part on how to remove the Allen bolts to remove the carb. Only reason I watched the vid bc I can't get to those bolts.

    • @WeekendHandymen

      This quad was in pieces when I bought it so I never had to remove them
