    Hi again, I'm not sure if I asked this before, where do I find the number on my carburetor? Do I remove the doghouse and look from inside or under the hood? Thanks again and thanks for your channel!

    • @thehonestmechanic
      @thehonestmechanic День назад

      @ArielsSky it's difficult to point it out exactly but there is either a metal tag stamped with numbers or it is stamped directly onto the carburetor. I suggest to start under the hood with a good light and it helps if the carb is clean. Thanks for the support 🙏

    Why be so stupid ?? All you have to do is measure the thread depth in the engine head and that will tell you if it takes the short thread plug or the long thread plug !! Toss the manual in the feckin bin and use your brain for once 😜😎

  • @codyswilley
    @codyswilley 4 дня назад

    Put the new plug in and spin the engine over by hand, if it doesnt hit it's fine. And the original plug could have been short from the factory. You dont know how much space is in between the piston and head until you do the squish test. Pit it in and spin it over. I bet itll be okay.

  • @davidcampbell8489
    @davidcampbell8489 5 дней назад

    Who's to say that plug you removed wasn't the incorrect one ? That's where you need to know if it's ever been altered from the original engine components like pistons and heads ! If so the VIN engine spec just went out of the equation,, you can tell by the threads depth in the spark plug hole what length plug the cylinder head requires.. correct plugs are always flush with the threaded holes so carbon doesn't build up causing threads stripped when plugs are removed, and the long plugs in a short thread hole almost always come into contact with the piston resulting catastrophic engine failure

  • @simonlangmead7
    @simonlangmead7 5 дней назад

    It’s a 4 cycle engine that is lubricated like a 2 stroke, it uses 50 to 1 gasoline oil mix. The reason the camshaft and gear that are molded together are made out of plastic, is that when plastic is in physical contact with smooth metal it needs far less lubrication strength. And 50 to 1 mix is enough to deliver these requirements. It has more torque, better volumetric efficiency, uses less fuel and emits less smoke.

      If you are not comfortable cleaning your carburetor, replacing it is definitely an option. I would start by checking for spark, changing the spark plug and engine oil then see how things go. If it doesn't run, look at the carburetor

    As a golden rule I have when you have situations like this never do just 1 side but do both sides, inspect all your seals and bearings, and depending where u live i.e. Canada you can buy the brake bleeder vacuum pumps, and yes they do have electric ones lol, noticed lil bit oil front of rear dif. Check ur Universal's and front dif bearing, most times is seal is leaking then those are main culprits and also time and mileage, and a lil fyi bleeding front and cleaning reservoir is a good idea and never skimp and get the good quality brakes, and yes lil Richard you did right by changing out rear differential fluids, always check to make sure that you put proper SAE fluids, seen some foolishness over the years sooooo not going there lol, but good job, and will see if I can get u a special tool for Christmas trust me it'sa life saver I mean knuckle saver lol
