This is THE BEST you Tube I have ever viewed. Perfect job. I admire you. I worked for NASA analyzing the moon rocks for trace elements in a lab in Kentucky in the 70-80's. I had to be perfect in my work to use radioactive neutron activation analysis to detect the precise element amounts. I'm👌 74 and will retire in a couple of months. Thanks for getting my Echo weed eater to run perfectly. Sending you some $$. Dr. Cox
As i said before, I always run my equipment, year round it take 1-2 hours each weekend, to keep everything going strong! Tune up each spring, and ready to go... no issues, some of my equipment is 15-20 years old with out any major issues! All used equipment from free piles. Repaired them and keep them running, your issues will mysteriously diminish😀😀😀
I live in NJ, where most people put up their equipment during the winter, I don’t, I start everything one a week, and run them yard needing it or not! Everything runs!
I like the fact that you use a stump for a workbench.
A good mechanic can do that 😂
I would have white cloth over the stump.. easy to see the parts on clothes instead of stump ( nice to work outside)
I was waiting for the Spring to end up in the grass😂
She is smart and pretty!
mark - She speaks very highly of you.
This is my kind of girl.
She's good.
You are brave rebuilding a carburetor in the yard. If I tried that I would surely loose at least one small part.
A girl who is not afraid to get her hands dirty and overhaul a carburetor is so attractive. And the machine burped on the first pull. Great job!
You always make rebuilding a carb look easy.
Your videos are always through and complete. Thanks
This is the reason i love echos they are so easy to fix and maintain thank you for sharing.
Thanks for making these videos. You have given me the confidence to attach these machines myself. Much appreciated!
I’d love to have one of those saws. Talk about handy. Excellent work.
Thank you. I need to rebuild the carb on my echo blower. Great vid to get me going on my rebuild.
You are a very competent teacher. Thank you
This is why I'm having my husband watch you, he has so many tools and equipment that needs attention and your the channel to watch.
You are amazing woman and thank you for sharing all your videos !
nice work, you do better work than allot of small engine shops i been to kudos 👍
Your a hand gadget to take on a picnic young Lady! Thanks, I need to do that to my old Echo !!
Very impressive, rebuilding a carb on a stump and did not loose anything 👍😊
You’re an expert child!!!!!!!...Lov ur videos......everything explained nice and clear awesome
My old roommate owns a land scaping business. And most of what he uses is echo. And I rebuilt most of his stuff a dozen time. Great machines.
Great video. All my straight shift Echo’s I found in the trash. Fixed them years ago, and have worked great. Any time I work on carburetors I put down a white towel or old t shirt so I don’t lose small parts.
We have old echo bladed edger!!! The place were order parts, showed me how to put carb in! He said as you take apart lay everything face down. Then turn the stack of parts over!!
Just found you, enjoy watching, keep it up lady!
U are easy on the eyes too ! 👍
Wow you are the best easy to follow Cleary explain each steps to all you work on , most men ego and try do too much technical jargon.
Good video, just one alternate way to put new fuel lines on the carb: Grab the fuel line with your needle nose pliers and dip the end of the hose in a bit of 2 cycle oil then push it on the barbed fitting. That will eliminate the fiddly action of stretching the lines from the inside with the pliers.
Hello fellow Arkansan! I have a part-time shop in SW Arkansas and found your channel researching General Transmissions. I'll be following your videos, God bless!
What a great video!!! You did this on a Stump!!! Got to love it!!! Finally a video in the real world !!
Thanks so much!!
Yep she's the best.i was just thinking that she makes it look easy . Now love her video's
You are awesome! One day I hope to be as good as you. I have to do this to my Ryobi string trimmer and will use this video as a reference. I like you you shoot most of your videos in pleasant outside surroundings. Sometimes you can hear birds chirping. I love it. Thank you for helping people do things correctly and sharing small tips.
Thanks for watching Rickey!
Very impressed that you let this pole saw sit around for 3 more years before you made a video about it...
i love to hear the prices of the parts you use. where i live you can not get any parts from the small engine dealers .. the most you get is cord and sparkplugs..love your open and understandable maintenace
I gave a 1 season use trimmer away two years ago to neighbor and bought electric trimmer. Thanks now I know what I didn't do in the tune up. thanks for the video.
Get it back from him! 😂
You Do A Great Job And Teaching I Am 63 Worked As A Mechanic All My Life
Thank you. That means a lot!
Chickanic! You are the coolest person on earth. Anybody who rebuilds carbs on a tree stump, well, a shrine should be built in your honor. In fact, I’m gonna build a small one out in the shop-make everybody genuflect when they come in.
As a self taught small engine technician for over 35 years I think you do a very good job! I noticed you didn't show replacing the needle screen filter, or show adjusting the needle assembly, the Zama and Walbro tools will make a great counter sell with the parts you sell.
Nicely done!
Nice job.
You do great work.Better than most men doing it.I have a Echo trimmer that I used a lot and put a brand new carburetor on mine, change spark plugs,air filter,and even put a moter on it from the spare one but unfortunately it still failed to start.So a new one cost 200 dollars and I just went and got a new one because taking it to the shop with something else wrong and labor cost I'm much better to get a new which a old one I would pay just as much or more for it to get it repaired.
Love your content. You Rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well done!
Nice job Never known an Echo not start In my humble opinion there is nothing to touch them I have a 40 year old saw a 25 year old hedge trimmer and a 15 year old strimmer
or wead eater as I think you over the pond call them ?? I use these for a living so they work hard and I mean hard never a problem look after them they look after you..
My friends who use other top brands have loads of issues and tend to buy new ever 2 years I have tried to explain but some folk just dont want to know ??Thanks for the
advice re fuel stabiliser have listened to your advice and now using it in all my tools Keep up the good work always good to be taught by those that know !!
I like that trimmer
Truly a "chickanic." Her workbench is a tree stump. She's one of the few people who actually fix things anymore.
You go girl
I like your style.
No doubt it would start. I'm surprised you didn't replace the old primer bulb due to its age. It's annoying getting ready to start up a piece of equipment, and the bulb cracks when you press it.
Wuold have been nice to see that piston. Those kits should include a primer bulb!
Very informative video--keep up the good work Woman!!!---Old Cat Mechanic.......
you are so good
Great video! Watching you work with those small fiddly parts...If you ever get tired of this, you'd make a good watch maker. lol
Thanks!
You rock!
My old Sears and Roebuck from the 80s looks very similar..
Love it love 💘
Thanks!
Where have you been all my life 😁
I subbed and smashed, keep up the great work, Ms Goldy!
P.S. keep this on the down low, but...ECHO RULES!
Beauty brains and complete talent such a beautiful person
Thanks, been learning some good basics from you!
Question! How do you know/decide when a metering diaphram needs to be replaced? You quickly said this one was sunken but not too stiff. Can you do a video on evaluating clean vs replace for carb parts? Running symptoms of failing carb parts?
I've been working on small engines on the side and I've found non that seemed to need replacement yet, most run fine.
I just need to look at that engine, and could tell it needed a carb rebuild kit, and total fuel assembly replacement lol. Those gromets can be a pain can't they, and one mistake with the screwdriver and you stab yourself, and out comes a few colorful metaphors. :P - You did a great job, you brought life back to that tried and true Echo engine.
Yes I still run the arm 2601 daily.
I have an old echo sprayer that I need to get back working. I let it sit for a couple years because I wasn't using it. I got it to stat a couple times but not stay on, then the primer bulb cracked. I initially just got another bulb, but I'm going to go ahead and replace the whole carb on it
Very very good from wampler small engine
Now that is what i call field service
Hi , thanks for all the videos you are making. My friend gave me a non running Echo CS-37000ES saw. I got it running (one of the pipes wasn’t connected to the carb) but it’s running very rich (black plug). Where would you start with that problem? Thanks I am impressed with the build quality of the Echo btw, I would definitely look at their products again.
Saw you on R+R. I thought the video was great. I subscribed. As a widow, with no family to help with these things (my brother used to fix things for me), I appreciate this video. It gives me the confidence to fix things myself. I called about getting my ryobi trimmer with interchangeable tool heads fixed. I was told I should just buy a new one. I believe it may be a fix similar to this because it doesn't get gas to the primer bulb. Is it worth fixing? Thanks. Looking forward to future videos.
Thanks so much Susan! First thing, in the video if you noticed, I looked inside the cylinder to make sure it was worth fixing. That is where you need to start. It is sort of hard to see inside the Ryobis though. If you take just the engine unit, no need to take an attachment, to your local shop, they can test compression for you. I do it for free for customers, but they shouldn't charge you much. If it has more than 110 pounds of compression it is worth fixing. 120 pounds is preferred. From there, I want you to give me the model of the unit so I can get a visual of what unit you have. I can then look up the parts for you and tell you the best way to proceed.
For my 30 year old SRM2100/2400 trimmer I should freshen up the carb. It's never been touched. I'll need to find the right kit part number. These old Echo trimmer work for decades. Just like the pre 2002 John Deere JX75 walk behind mowers.
Great job, is it good to let the engine warm up first?
After you rebuild your lawn equipment and remove the bad gasoline, put some fuel stabilizer (like Sta Bil) in the new gasoline to keep the gas from going bad so soon.
Startron is better, and I also add Seafoam
New subscriber here - I like the content and your method of teaching. Thanks, and keep it up please!
Welp I'm officially in love! Nice work!
Thanks for watching!
Cute!
I love your videos because you show step by step how it is done. I've been looking to buy a pole saw and would like the best for my money. I was noticing that on Amazon they have some with 52cc motors for $155 through $250. A Stihl cost $414, Which would go with?
Echo is the only way to go on pole saws. The cheap ones are Chinese knock offs that will not last near as long.
Good job girl 👧 l like 👍
The three dots that are at the top of the page not the vertical dots at the comment line. then click the Heart Thanks thing.
started on first pull
Good afternoon ma’am.. how can I tide the chain in a poke saw like that.. thank you
cant beat a old echo haha!
How do you remove the plastic plug on carbs with pre set adjustments like echo line trimmer?
Chickanic, how does rebuilding the carburetor vs new carburetor compare ?
First thing you do is pull it through with the plug-in fuel for compression
Can you help me understand what is cross-thatching in the spark plug hole?
In the field tune up.
So once you replace all the pieces, there’s adjustments needed? Thanks
Should have taken the brass plug out when you had it apart 😁
What model is that power pruner?
Is it pre-echo ?
I need to part number for the carburetor and fuel lines. Thank you
What happens if you drop a tiny screw into the tall grass ? Magnet ?
Did you put on a new trigger grip on as well at the end? For most of the video it looked cracked, chipped, broken grip etc. Then brand new at end.
Nope. It is still broken.
I love you 💘
Im a lover of woman make mecanic, so it all in righr process too....and you are very nice too...🤩
Saw your post on Roots and Refuge fb page. Great video. Very thouough ad easy to follow. How old is too old to refurbish a small gas engine? I have an old Mantis gtiller that has not been used i over 10 years ad find myself eeding one again. Is it worth a try?
The mantis tiller has one of the best engines ever made. They do not make them that good anymore. If the piston and cylinder still have compression, it is TOTALLY worth fixing. I LOVE my mantis tiller. I used it for my entire garden this year. I will do a mantis video next!
Yes, definitely!
@@Chickanic yes, the Mantis tiller has a Kioritz engine (Echo) made in Japan where they make the BEST 2 cycle engines.
@@Chickanic I just found this www.amazon.com/Carbhub-C1U-K54A-Carburetor-2-Cycle-Cultivator/dp/B079NTNVV6/. I wouldn't have thought the parts would be easily found and so affordable. On my Mantis Tiller, just about everything that touches fuel needs replacing. Thanks for the video and comments.
i just rebuilt a cs 8000
new jug piston n carb kit
I find empty yogurt cups a great place to keep small parts.
👍😁
When I put my weeder away for winter I ran all the gas out do it hurt it
I found out about echo from a dude that sold his whole kit, trimmer, hedger, pole saw, brush blade, and two motors because "they're just for parts". Put a new carb in it and I have whole lawn care kit for 100 bucks.
Of course it runs, it’s an echo. I personally believe that echos are better than Stihls and Huskivarnas.
And there’s your dinner!
my dad bought it in 1985 now it runs like new
Working on an a tree stump I would have lost at least one screw in the grass and would never find it.
thats my life story 5 mins to sort the problem 4 hours to find the missing screw
