- My pal Mike picked up this little Honda generator for me, during our community's "Large Item Pickup" event. Obviously, we have no idea what's up with it, but it was thrown out for a reason! Then again, it's a Honda. 'Nuff said! If I can resurrect it, it'll sure be handy to have around!
Be sure to give a listen to @parsonsghost5112!

I'm glad to see that you got it fixed and running
Great repair, briefcase generators are handy little things 👍
Nice save Shopkat great little generator 👍🏼
Awesome. I would have loved to found an old Honda like that.
Always handy to have a little generator like those for an outing with the fam. Nice job on the repair. Bet you buddy Mike will enjoy have a working generator come back. Be safe and stay well.
He GAVE me the generator! He's always finding things like that for his friends, I think it's what brings him joy...I'll sure enjoy having it around, and of course if he has need of one he knows who to talk to!
Turned out to be such a great score 👍😎✌️
Awesome repair brother. Handy little generator. Thanks for sharing. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an incredible weekend. Much love and RESPECT
Thanks, you too!
I've heard about that type of fix...but never saw it done. Most cool. tHanks for the video
Thanks for watching! Cheers!
Hey ShopKat, good stuff ! I learn from an ol Master Mechanic on small engine repairs. He used Torch Tip Cleaner set for getting the jets unplugged and other inlets on a small carb . The torch cleaning tips are the right size for most jets and stiffer then the copper wire . Always enjoy you channel . Take It Easy....
For sure! I think they'd still be a bit large for these guys, they were TINY. I have an Amazon small engine carb tool kit and the wires in that are much too large as well. Next time I'm at the hardware store I'll see what they have for brass wire! Cheers!
Once you've gone to the trouble of taking out the carb, which I usually try to avoid as I've said, it's usually worth cleaning out more than the main jet as there is usually an emulsion tube under it and often an idle jet, which effects full speed mixture if clogged. Once the carb and the little wires are all out and ready, it's usually worth cleaning all 3. I'm not sure I would have used a parts washer, depending on time, but I would have done a bit more cleaning.
Nice work brotha!! BOOM BABY!
Appreciate it!! BOOM BABY!
Nice one Bud, The oh Bread tie might have fit the oh jet's, Man that's cool u got the condenser going and charging like that awesome find Bud 👍✌️
Bread tie! I always forget that trick...but I'm pretty sure we don't have any in the house. Next time I buy something electrical I'll hoard the little black twist ties!
Thanks for the video. I was having the same issue, and it works great now.
Awesome, I'm very happy to hear that!
Yeah it’s crazy how expensive some of those carb rebuild kits are
Very! Especially name-brand...but the off brand ones rarely fit... decisions decisions lol!

Cool.
I guess you didn't hear me talking to the monitor saying, "Excite it!"
My cat just looked at me like...there goes that crazy hooman making noises again. ;)
Seems like everyone is excite it or maybe excited!
@@glennnickerson8438 But too much excitement can be bad too. ;)
You collect enough of them and get them running SK you could start your own powerplant!😉
Not a bad idea!
Can't beat a honda generator, the newer ones have an overload circuit that pops when overloaded, you just shut it off and it resets itself. That heat gun was definitely too much wattage for the 650...😅
Especially when I accidentally put the heat gun straight on High and not Low lmao!!
Congratulations! Now you can buy a Tesla to go with it. :D
Not likely! Don't get me wrong, they're kind of neat in a way (except that barfy Cybertruck!) but they're a long ways out of my price range lol. There's an operator at my work who charges his there, which seems to me like taxpayers footing his commuting expenses...but I'd do the same lol
