  • My 2 Stroke engine is down on power and air filter is wet with gas. How can I fix this!? check the spark arrestor AND the exhaust port for carbon build up. Clean and or replace. this will increase your power immediately. if the rings are worn excessively, depending on your skill level, replace the rings or ring. Good Luck

    Great vid man. It's easy to get into the weeds with how these engines operate. I sent this to a buddy I was trying to explain this to. Good explanation without getting overly complicated 👍🏻

    Thanks to this vid I've diagnosed and remedied the issues that I was having with my 2-stroke weed-wacker unit; huge build-up of carbon deposits restricting the exhaust port. Gracias amigo! 👏🏻

    I especially liked info where cylinder or ring wear taking place and the outcome of that vs other areas that most people get lost in a vicious circle of outcomes not helping, and missing what could be the issue, as some people dont understand the theory or dont think of it.

    I've asked about this, he's referring to a question I've asked. A coworker owns an srm225 Echo straight shaft trimmer. No power at full throttle but a small amount of gas spits out of the carb.

    I have an issue about the hose that connected going out to the air filter , when i start the engine , air pressure comes out including gas or petrol, It wasted the gas, at first i thought it comes out from the carborator but when i remove all the air filter and foam there is no wet fuel at all. It came from the small hose from the engine block.

    Excellent explanation and illustration ! I have these same symptoms after replacing the piston and rings on my Husqvarna 145BF backpack blower. My connecting rod had a small piece break off and the blower stopped immediately. No damage to the cylinder and only to the bottom of piston at the connecting rod holes on piston. I made certain I faced the rings in the correct direction also made sure the split in each piston ring was positioned on its locating pin. I wonder if I could have installed a ring incorrectly or there was damage to the cylinder that was not easily seen ? This blower may have 100 hrs on it and always used Husqvarna 50:1 oil mix.

    • @ZombieDaveAZ
      @ZombieDaveAZ  Před rokem +1

      Just asking is it possible that you installed the piston 180° off? That would definitely cause a ring to snag in a port. Just asking

    Your explanation of the effects of ring wear and carbon build up in the exhaust port were pretty good. The discussion of the sacrificial seals on the crank seems out of place. Would leaky seals contribute to the problem of fuel mist coming out of the carburetor?
    Congratulations, you got me thinking early on a Sunday morning.

    • @ZombieDaveAZ
      @ZombieDaveAZ  Před 2 lety

      Hi Dave, sometimes when you are making a video it's just whatever comes to mind comes out your mouth. Lol.. leaking seals are worth mentioning because positive pressure in the crankcase can put out oily black residue out between the journals and the seals.

    Any idea what causes blow back when it’s on a new top end? Ring end gap point is good as a new install. On stihl 028. Could the after market have a port timing issue?

    • @zernestro
      @zernestro Před 4 měsíci +1

      Hi, did you find the answer? I have the original top end, and i'm getting blow back. It's an old engine but i still get 155 Psi of compression, so rings are probably ok?

    • @ZombieDaveAZ
      @ZombieDaveAZ  Před 4 měsíci

      Check for carbon build up in the exhaust port to where you can actually see the piston. I'm thinking that's why you have such great compression along with the blowback. Also try running it with the muffler off and look for the blowback. By doing these things we are trying to isolate the problem. I hope you know what I mean brother.

      Hello my friend. I'm assuming this is on like a mini motorcycle? Does it have reed valves. Is it a slide carburetor like a kehein? You need to give me more info to help you. What else besides cylinder and piston did you do?

    Hi. great video, I'm having that problem on a Ryobi BP 42. Even though I checked the muffler was unobstructed, I will run the engine without it to see if anything changes . Here is the video of my BP 42 blowing fuel mist out the carburetor air intake czcams.com/video/CXDZ9vKdw4Y/video.html Thanks for the explanation.

    • @ZombieDaveAZ
      @ZombieDaveAZ  Před 13 dny

      You have ring wear if all the ports are clear. This is like replacing a rear main seal in a car. It's $1200 of labor to replace a $9 part. Check your compression with a gauge and see what it says. New would be around 150psi. You're prolly down to 100-110. Running 40:1 mix will help with this but it's a temp solution. Replace the rings is the answer.
