Dude the ads make this video unwatchable wont be watching any more. First and only video of yours I'll ever watch JUST A HEADS UP FOR THE NEXT GUY YOU TRY TO SUCK IN.
CHEAP AND EFFECTIVE. JUST LIKE YOUR WIFE
The local small engine repair shop has a three month waiting list, so this kind of video is invaluable.
Yes, that is the idea of the video to help others out. Thanks for commenting.
Good video but one big mistake a lot of people make is reving up a cold machine at full throttle. Let it warm up at idle for at least a minute.
Those my friend are first time users or beginners whove never come. Within 10 ' of a live saw biting the wood..if one doesn't allow a warmup minite your asking for trouble.or even check the chain after running awhile.impatient and immature dolts.
Ive worked with these carbs a lot and I've found if you take them off of the machine and soak in gas for awhile, it sometimes helps to avoid a replacement. I do this a lot at the beginning of the season because as they set up, over time, parts can dry out.
Good video. For odd use, I think amazon parts will be fine but for daily pro work, you’ll find they wear out faster. I’ve gone through 3 recoil springs on my husky 55 on a 7.3 acre contract so far. Went back to dealer parts. 1 buck more but works/lasts.
Great running ole saw Bob! I love those Chinese carbs. You can buy a new carb for basically the same money as a rebuild kit.
That is true that is why I opt for them.
Thanks I really appreciate it because I have saw that has not been used for a few years and I was considering a Chinese carburetor kit ,I will give them a try seeing that you have had good luck with them ,thanks again
Good vid. A little premix oil on the fuel line while stretching from both end works wonders for those PITA things. ;)
2021 awesome video pulled me out of a huge jam watched 100 times today. You. Da. Man.
I had another cause of bogging out that I’ve fixed. I accidently
used chain oil in the fuel instead of T2 engine oil. The engine run at idle but
bogged out at high revs. When I put the right fuel in it was OK. I went through
all of the cleaning and adjusting processes it was only when I tried a new mix
of fuel that I realised the fuel in the tank was yellow, the only T2 oil that I
have is pink but both bottles are black and look the same. All the best . . . Andy
Good to know! I like how you closed up the carb you were pitching to keep crap out, but left the new one you put in open for re-assembly. ;-)
I'm not perfect. I guess with all the dirt on the old carb I thought about closing it up. What you didn't see is I blew it out with my air hose before I installed the new. Also during reassembly the choke was not on yet, so I could not lock it.
Obvious you knew what you were doing, just don't always remember every last detail. I understand perfectly. Filming also complicates things immensely! I ordered one of those kits for a cheap spare saw I was going to throw out. If I get it running I'll donate it to the hurricane efforts.
Another thing you can do is clean the spark screen on the muffler! Could be gummed up from the 2 cycle not being mixed right!!
Good job nice saw, I find carb kits are best way to solve issues no need for a new carb if old one isn't damaged, carb kits are cheap
Next time you do a fuel line pull on both ends to thin the tubing ,then pull it through.
That's how it's done when there is no bulkhead fitting.
And run the correct route the original pipe came over the carb not under it looked like it could interfere with the throttle linkage
@@davidwalker5396 ya I made that oof once. These little Saw's are great when we'll maintained. I've put many hours on the one I have.
Good Job doublewwide 6 You performed that job like you have done it many times.The tight fitting fuel line is critical, with out that tight seal the lack of back pressure won't let fuel into your carb.The diaphragm inside the carb works like a fuel pump in conjunction with vacuum drawn from the underside of the piston. Every time the piston raises up the cylinder the diaphragm pumps the fuel into the carb..Huskies draw the impulse pressure through a passageway through the carb block/mount and from the cylinder. Stihls utilize a impulse hose that is separate and attaches from the case to a hose then to the carb
I'll give you a pointer on saving you starter rope, starter spring and pauls. When starting a cold saw, set your choke on, then pull your rope/handle slow , drawing the entire length of your rope extended from the spool. repeat this around six times, not to slow but enough for the saw to sound like put, put,put. .then with fuel loaded to your cylinder, take choke off and give just one strong pull. the saw will need to be pulled a half a dozen times to get fuel into the cylinder, no sense in jerking hard on the first 5 or 6.
Like the story about the old Bull Elk and a young Spike standing on top of a ridge, looking down at a herd of cows. The Spike looks up at the Bull and says.."lets run down there and fuck one of them cows"! The old Bull looks down at the Spike with a grin and says.."lets just walk down there, and fuck em all"
They use side draft carbs like walbro's with a float, not diaphragm carbs. Simmer down with your copy and paste garbage
That ended with a nice story, lol
great video. I'm gonna have to get my old Poulan Pro a little Christmas gift!
I'm a huge believer in buying USA, but if it takes a knock-off to save the whole saw from hitting the garbage dump, shopping overseas just makes sense.
All the carbs (for the most part) are produced over seas, OEM or other. The aftermarket ones are usually adjustable which is helpful. Walbro has a location in Michigan, but most of its locations are outside the US and Zama is Japanese.
Make sure you keep the chain touched up so it cuts straighter and smoother and fast.
After 30 years - I only reblt a carb twice... use clear fuel and Seafoam - cleans most any carb from barely running to normal..just saved me opening my 13 hp Honda also - it works
Sea foam is the only miracle in a bottle I swear by. I have a comercial pressure I bought for cheap. After cleaning the tank out from rust The tank had a little water and rust still in the bottom of the tank. I cleaned the carb and put a new fuel filter on. it would run for 3 mins and die. So since seafoam has worked on even diesel engins with water in the tank for me I tried it and it took a few time of dying and starting then it started and kept running but a little rough the in about 2 mins it was purring like a kitten. Seafoam is the best
This was great information...thanks very much
Stihl and Husky Both now Use China carbs. Yama etc . as long as you have rubber parts and air pressure i can pretty much make any diaphragm carb work again.
Thanks for the video it was very helpful.
Cheap Chinese carburetors from my personal experience, and from online forums, CZcams, etc. reports and success has been good. The competition on Amazon is apparently so stiff, that not only are they practically giving some outdoor power equipment parts away price wise, but it also seems to be a one up contest on who can include more "goodies" with the main purchase. Amazon is going to wreck the small brick and mortar guys, but I love the selection, service, convenience, and deals.
aftermarket carb for your fs90 and fs100, you get them through amazon
Video is awesome. Love how you showed step by step but man the commercials every breath has got to stop
Nice video good demonstration. I considered trying these Chinese carburetors glad it worked so well. Will now order a few. When installing the fuel line try pulling the bottom of the line
(part sticking our of the fuel tank) the same time you are pulling it from the top. This stretches the line, thinning it out as it goes through. Stay well, JoeZ
I've read. in multiple places that the 41's were manufactured for Husqy by Poulon.
Good video Bob.
Thanks Bruce. I have had really good luck with the Chinese snowking carbs as well. The funny thing is all the carbs are made in China OEM or not.
This isn't always the problem solver... I've found many of times the exhaust screens have been a big problem as well
You should have thrown the damn spark arrester in trash as you walked in the garage from buying the saw!
very often the small lever which diaphragm actuates inlet needle with wears down and does not allow enough fuel at full power regardless of high speed needle setting. I had to bend them higher ever so slightly in carb body. Very sensitive adjustment.T o high equals flooding. Lever and diaphragm wear at contact points .Did thin on old antique saws. Good luck.
Thats really impressive beats the hell outtabrebuikding tgese touchy things
Nice job. Chain was way too loose when you test started it. Sure you fix that. Well done.
I bought a cheap foreign carb for my Leaf blower. Cheaper and faster than rebuilding the old carb.
I left old gas in it over the winter - learn the hard way.
This is the third video I've seen regarding chainsaw "bog down". Not one of them had addressed the actual cause or remedy to the "bog" problem. Am I missing something, guys?
Jon, most often, the remedy is in the carb replacement. Bog down occurs when the air / fuel / exhaust balance is out of whack. Keep in mind that a carb replacement doesn't eliminate the problem when the bog down is due to exhaust screen blockage.
Thanks for the update, Steve. I appreciate it.
@@jonpatterson7211 You're welcome. It took me a year to find your comment, but, I found it. lol
*Disclaimer: Im not the person, nor do I know the YT poster of this video.
@@stevealaska73 No sweat, guy. All help greatly appreciated regardless of its origin.
Video SshXK8Ehm74 does explain in detail. From another author, i suspect an engineer.
Great Video and you sir, have a new subscriber!
Good job but if u go back & look @ ur video u routed the fuel line wrong but hey if it runs then kudos. Good video, thanks.
Chuck G. Great Job
I love cheap amazon carbs .work great every time
DB6 I have a stihl fs90 edger and a Stihl 100RX weedeater could I get a Chinese carb for them somewhere ?
amzn.to/2yDxX23 FS 90 do fuel lines and fuel filter right away.
amzn.to/2xVE3Mg 100RX do the fuel lines and fuel filter too.
Nice fix Bob. As you said frustrating rebuilding a carb and it still runs like a dog.
Cheers
Pete.
Yes it is frustrating, I'm picking up flack for just replacing the carb, but I'm thinking people don't watch the whole video, so don't understand that I tried cleaning the carb and making adjustments to the needles already.
Thanks, I did not see the links!
Thank you for that link
Cool video keep it up. Thanks.
I have an echo 310 when I first stared the chain saw revv high do I adjust the low idie? Its a walbouro carb
small hole on left side marked "H" and "L". insert a longer straight blade screwdriver in the "L" side and stick it into the screw slot and turn slowly to the right until saw runs slower. remove the carb cover so you can see what you are doing.
there are a hi and lo jet screw. there is a idle screw that you can adjust to slow down the idle speed.
Did the fuel line puller tool come with the kit
no he made it himself so did I it works great! He has a video on his channel
heyyyy my grandfather has a husky 141
its currently apart
yeah it needs some parts
he has a husky 240 and it has a ignition problem
or maby its a older or a newer version of the 41?
A little WD-40 on the fuel line works wonders in pulling it thru the hole
It helped out quite a bit. The new fuel line was wider than the original.
WD-40 will actually attack the rubber. The solvents and penetrants will evaporate and the residual "oil" gets really gummy after time.
Deep Creep is a pure petroleum product,not a bunch of things tossed together.
Anything that tells you to shake the can first,is usually garbage.
Only keep that kind of stuff around for stuff that is rusted together and it is a "I'll try this before I throw it away" type situation.
WD stands for water dispersant and 40 was just for formula number 40.
It wasn't intended for all the things that are thrown in its direction.
@@paulbillings1791 I could be wrong but never had a petroleum product hurt rubber intended for fuel line, gaskets and prongs yes in that case use silicone grease
Cut the line at a 45 degree angle too don't forget
Believe me I have done that very same modification in a pinch , I have enlarged that hole and the hole that exits the fuel tank because there is a cavity between the top of the fuel tank and the Chainsaw body , drill it and pull the line through with excess line and then put a small dab of silicone sealer suitable for use with fuel and then just pull it backwards from the fuel cap port until a ring of silicone forms a complete seal around the fuel line and the up sized access you created so the saw can be manipulated in any position without any leakage....
For a little while anyway. The press fit of the fuel line is what gives the seal.
Did I just see him refuel on his work bench without a funnel
hi, can i ask you about a problem i have?
I have a saw that this might cure, thanks
Spray wd40 on line and on opening as you pull it through. Helps slide through hole
Question if anyone can help. My fairly new 395 huskvarna xp runs great wide open and any throttle positions except isle. Shuts off immediately. Lil advice or help would be greatly appreciated
Wayne Peake wind ur idle screw clock wise quarter turn, or better still has it been to the shop for its first service?
Wayne, you might have weak clutch springs or a brok
en one. A saw can be tuned perfect but when a clutch spring goes bad your saw will either stop fast and or your chain will run all the time , even on idle. if your clutch springs are ok then turn your hi and low jet screws clockwise til they bottom out, not hard though, they are steel your carb seats are aluminum. then turn your low screw out 1 turn . turn your hi screw out 3/4 of a turn, that will put you close . you can also adjust the idle screw.
I usually only have to do this on saws that have a lot of running hours on them , but You might also want to consider opening the gap on the spark plug about another five thousand. Makes both warm and cold starts easier as well.
On that series of husky and poulan behind plastic carb heat shield is the pulse tube that is most often brittle that can cause fuel starvation.
If you are talking about the 142 Husky the pulse tune is a little green thing and I have tried everything so I did not have to pay 10 bucks for that little piece of Junk after I bought one and messed it up. But most pulse tubes is like a fuel line or it goes through the intake manifold which is the one I like. And yes that will cause fuel starvation that is how the carb knows how much fuel to feed.
Cut a 45 degree angle on the e a d of the fuel line and it will go in easier.
I have had pretty good luck putting a little atf in the fuel. Its high in detergents did it to my 630 jonsered just last week had to run it half choke for about 5 min then ran like dream.
How do you hook up the trigger to the throttle line to a 3450b homelife chain saw
Is a 55 husquvarna a good saw?
If you intend on earning a paycheck with a saw there are better options.
Hej, great job. an small suggesting, before starting a job like this you shouls flow the dust off the saw.
Perhaps you should check your spelling before you text friend.
why not clean and rebuild the existing carb and check the exhaust flow.
Consider changing the video name, there are alot of ither things that fix a chainsaw bog that arnt even talked about
I always use a Chinese carb on Coates chainsaw !!! Whooooooo !!!
Thanks man :)
Looks just like my jonsered 625 series 2
i do small engine repair myself , ive learned a lot from ya thanks !!!! but it hurts me to see someone take engines apart with hand tools ohhhh i cant stand it ,, get a dewalt 20 volt impact driver and it will make your life so easy you wont know weather to shit or go blind ,, that tool is amazing its true its a money maker !!!!!
I will take a look into it. Thanks
Hi bob nice job buddy
Thanks. It is an easy repair that anyone can do.
What about just drilling a bigger hole with gastic maker.
Good
Looking at the earlier part of video the fuel line came from the left.
Yep. This video was painful to watch.
Chinese carbs are hit or miss
I bet your problem was that old fuel line. It gets old and hard outside the tank and soft and some of it gets gooey if left submerged in fuel for extended times. Both will let the saw idle fine but fall on it's face under load. Also, Tygon fuel line (lime green) will harden with age, and the cheap junk that comes with those Chinese kits is even worse. Buy Husqvarna pigtail fuel lines from the dealer. They are designed to tolerate ethanol blended fuel and will last for several years even with constant exposure to fuel.
Neal Murphy The original carb that was on it is made in china the problem was bad diaphragm gaskets he could have simply rebuilt the old carb but for 15 bucks for a carb and complete tune up kit why not
Keep the chain sharp
.."The Solution That Always Works"...I was expecting to see you throw the saw into the dumpster, Lol !......
Oh no.
I nearly had a Cold Seizure ...just watching this...
you said that you shut the choke to keep dirt out, why ? when you are putting on a new carburetor.
any extra dirt, don't want it falling in the throat of the carb.
doublewide6 Repairs LLC stupid question you should of give him stupid answer
If you had paid attention to what you were doing, you would have put the gas line over the top of the carb just like it was when you took it apart, DUH................hope that works out for you.............
That's an interesting comment/concern considering you didn't bother cleaning one bit of crap off that saw before digging in then left the intake wide open.
it is a good habit, a friend once dropped one of the two 8mm nuts inside the carb all the way into the cylinder, thin king it dropped on the floor, he replaced it then ruined his saw when he started it
those carbs are adjustable, you could try tweekin it before you toss it.
I cleaned it and tried cutting with it. It died out, so I tried adjusting the setting and had no luck.
I only said that from experience, if you order that fuel line straight from Husqvarna you will notice a difference for certain, I know you have made yourself a copy of the same installation tool that the Chainsaw Guy pushes on his channel that seems to assist in difficult installs . The original line from Husqvarna appears smaller both inside and outside diameters , the Husqvarna line is much less of a quality construction then the yellow Tygon line you used in your video , the important facts that you will discover is replacing the impulse tube on the back side of the carburetor mounting just under the blue colored manifold on the left side of the saw. Very common air leak there because it's only a press fit from the air tube that is made of extruded or cast plastic that deforms and degrades over time . This is the time to check and replace this impulse tube while you have it disassembled...
Thanks for the tip. I will look into it.
If you do this, you can also put quality rtv silicone on it (Permatex for example). It really helps
the problem is not the carb but the fuel line you are using. It is going to get hard and stiff in 6 months and you will be back where you are right now when it cracks. Best to use OEM fuel line and they only last for 2 or 3 years.
I don’t understand why non-professional saws are so buttoned up. You still need to get under the hood more often than not.
Wish I could get a new carb for my very old Stihl 031av Farmboss. The Walbro WD2''s are way too expensive (more than the saw is worth!!!) and rare as hen's teeth.
Allan Wells go on eBay and get a kit, just had a look they are about $10. Just a thought.
Looks identical to a poulan pro 220
Check the exhaust spark arrester 98% of the issue! Most people just punch a hole through them if your not cutting in dry area.
What about the Poulan Pro 4218
nice vid....but you put the fuel line from the wrong side . It goes left side OVER carb to the carb inlet. this helps to NOT interfere with throttle linkage wear or snag.
Thanks, I don't work on too many chainsaw as I try to stick to 4 cycle equipment. I just followed the way it was when I took it apart. It would make more sense to route over the top. I will pop the top and reroute it so it does not wear on me. Thanks for the tip. Bob
Actually if you watch your own vid... it was the left side OVER carb to the carb inlet...your own video showed me that & should have been your first thing to check when you put it back together...watch the video ...video dont lie!! 1:40 - 3:12 = hose shows over the top the WHOLE TIME
Looks like my jonsered 2040 turbo saw
The "saul" ran pretty good...? 😂😂😂😂
As for the stopped up screen. I have found that the best solution to that is to remove the screen and throw it into the garbage.
Nice old saw.
Never by gas again I like my battery power saw amazing the battery life is incredible
Battery powered saws are really nice for trimming and pruning. Gas powered is a must for anything over 12" diameter IMO. So battery for little stuff and gas for the big stuff.
doublewide6 Repairs LLC double wide 6...not nessacarily true...milwaukee fuel makes one and it is a absolute beast...the question is do you have enough batteries charged up...they do last quite a while tho...I can't cut down and cut up a 40 maple 12" trunk on 2 5.o batteries..lithium technology is second to none and milwaukee owns the game!...nice video bro
ya if yourownly cutting branches
I betcha one tank of fuel will do at least triple the work of your battery...
You put the fuel line in the wrong location . You never want it on the side of the linkage m plus you dont want the line to do a short arc 180.
You didn’t run the correct route the original pipe came over the carb not under it looked like it could interfere with the throttle linkage
the pulse pipe will b split ya never checked it
Fast forward a few years and we have an answer to "what could go wrong" getting stuff from jina? CVoneniner
Whatever. They fucking work. And they're cheap.
Bet it will run now
it will bust off lug nuts , flywheel nuts , and any lawn mower blade off with no iritatting air hoses to drag around ,,
I have several 18v impacts I use them a lot. I try to use hand tools when I can so I don't wreck anything.
Hey why not rev the nuts off a cold saw for a bit longer. You could get some great material for a new video when that saw has a cold seizure.
Sorry to be that guy but the fuel line is supposed to come up from the left side of the carb, over the top, then connect to the carb as seen in the beginning of your video. Otherwise, good work!
Was that a gas and oil mix you put in that saw ? or just GAS, hope that works out for you. DUH
Looks just like a old Poulan saw.
I'm a Husky fan. But that is an old saw that's not worth fixing. I've got all the models, from 3120xp's down. Go and get a 550xp. Excellent saw with warranty. Good video though. You're a skilled mechanic.
dumbest advise i ever heard, i run only 395 and you never throw anything away. please shut your mouth before others listen to you. .
Not always
It's not a sawl...
For all those watching, if you can, only fix 1 thing at a time and then try the engine. You'll never know what fixed the problem if you don't.
@Mike B Your vocabulary is astounding.
