Kohler 21hp knocking noise Courage and why it happens
Thank you You corrected my problem. Wish I would have saw your video 10 months ago. Life saver!!
Glad to help!
Thanks for uploading this how-to video. I got an old unused TEP-100 from a friend last year for 700$ (import price). I then used it for hunting but after 6 months the battery died and I was in trouble. I am glad to know the number of the battery. It takes a lot of courage to cut the earphones but I will give it a try. Thanks.
Just be careful and slow. Was told a hot knife might make it easier. Thanks for watching!
I had to get at my battery to jump in -25 below zero, what a pain in the ass with all the plastic. Wish i saw this video first thankyou,well done
Yes I hate working in the cold!!🥶
Worked like a charm, thanks!
You’re welcome. I’m glad it was an easy fix.
That’s the snowblower of my dreams! I really like both the chute control and directional controls. Sweet!
Me too! But we hardly see snow here
@@RayofallTrades Yeah, I figured what you had on the ground there was an anomaly.
@@Rein_Ciarfellayes it was. 6” and it shut us down for a couple days
Run What Ya Brung!
Hey ray I have the exact same buggy. I am working on my brakes. The cylinder inside the caliber does not push in all the way to be flush with the caliber. Is it suppose to or does the cylinder sit out just a little bit?
I can’t quite remember. Did I show it in the video? Usually I do
@ no sir I can’t really see how far the cylinder went into the caliber
Gotcha. I looked again and at 5:15 it looks like it doesn’t seat flush. I would put the pads in and take a measurement. It should have enough space to fit the rotor.
@ 10-4
And thank you for watching and asking! Good luck on your project.
Job well done. I enjoyed the video 😊
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it.
Can you replace the spindle bearings on an X ONEi?
Sorry but I’m not sure
Great video 👍🏼. Check the large heat shield gasket between carb and engine that it is in the correct orientation. You might have it on backwards comparing with my pressure washer with Honda GCV190 engine. Also don’t run the pump idle without pulling the trigger for more than a minute or so. The pump can easily overheat and cause pump damage.
Great observation and advice! Thank you
Good job on the repair ! Bad idea to leave your saw running on high idle with your brake on . Burning your clutch .
You are correct. Thank you
Chains way to tight man
I set them so I have 3 drivers above the bar
Thanks for making this video
Glad you found it helpful
Doctor Ray, performing surgery while removing and installing a carburetor! What a royal PITA! This is one of those tough ones where I’ll be wearing a hat with a clip-mounted inspection light to see what the heck I’m doing. If there’s an easier method by removing more parts I’ll definitely go that route! 🔧👍 I’ve got long and short forceps so I’m ready when I finally get on this one.
Hahaha yeah it was a little tricky
Rather than lifting the bar while tightening the bar nuts I usually tilt the saw forward onto the bench. Just seems easier for me because you already need to hang onto the saw while tightening the nuts. This is especially useful for really small or light saws.
Me too normally but everyone thinks I skip that part because they don’t see it load up. Yes your way is easier to me
I could smell that red cedar from here! I’d have a hard time cutting up such a beautiful piece of potential lumber! Love that smell!
In this area they are easy to come by. We have a hard time getting walnut
I suspect one of the orifices in the carb still had some varnish partially blocking so it wasn’t priming well at the beginning. Eventually when you really got some oomph behind it and resorted to pulling off the bench it was enough to finally get fuel through to start dissolving the varnish. Or maybe just a tiny bit of fines that needed an extra amount of compression to blow through. Great saw, either way!
It’s a great saw. I think you’re right on the varnish in the carb
It never occurred to me to use a bent pick like that to clean the debris from a chainsaw. It does seem pretty effective and efficient because you can get into all the crevices with the point but also clear some of the flat surfaces with the side of the bend. I’ll definitely be trying that next! I have two paint brushes for cleaning saws - one is narrower and stiffer than the other so I have options depending on what I need. I drilled holes in both handles large enough to easily hang them on a hook to the right of the bench.
The ones I have aren’t stiff enough to get the stuck on debris. When I find some better brushes, I will probably use those most since they can be faster
I just discovered by accident that this type of purge bulb releases completely by only prying out the locking tab on one side. It then tilts enough that the tab on the other side clears and the bulb comes right out. Who knew? 🔧😉
Oh really? I’m gonna go look and see how to do that. That would save me some effort for sure
@@RayofallTrades I don’t know if it works on all applications, but I’m gonna find out! 😉
Thank you! Exactly my situation. And the little amount of dirt that caused the slowness was incredible. Now it's back to normal.
Sometimes the simplest things cause the biggest problems. I'm glad it's working again.
Hey, Ray! I've got one of those! It was a donor along with a Shindaiwa from a baking customer. It's one of the ones I plan to keep for myself rather than flip if it turns out to be as great as I suspect. Will this be the impetus to clean it up, tear it down and do a full service so I can see for myself how great it is? Sure, after a gazillion other things I have to do, like the Shindaiwa, an Husqvarna, 2-3 Stihls, , pending customer work... The list is soooo long! ;-) Never enough time (or energy, at 77!). :) I'll watch this video later today and get back to you, of course! ;-)
Sounds great. I think the saw will surprise you
Happy Sunday a great chainsaw I like echo chainsaw there nice and lite I hope it will work out fine and u can get it running. I am looking for some projects saw let me know if you have any or no of anyone who has one
Free saws are everywhere! Maybe you can talk Ray into doing a video on how to find freebies. ;-)
@Rein_Ciarfella I wasn't asking you for anything but I don't need anyone's two sense
Will do. Usually I have to pay a little bit for them unless they are completely junk. Look for the yard sales and try to stick with the name brands
What city and state are you in?
@RayofallTrades NM
Thank you for the video! I almost bought a new faucet. I watched your video and gave me hope. I ended up removing the little plastic aerator and the water pressure is much better now.
I am so glad it worked out for you!
Thanks Ray. Your vid was extremely helpful.
Glad to hear it!
Take the battery right out, tape the cable ends up and fire it up. It will run and create power all day long with no battery in it.
Yes that is what they said
Ray Do you have the specs on the struts ?
Yes. Look in the description field. I posted the supplier and part numbers. It won’t let me paste them here in the comments this morning for some reason
Ray Do you have the specs on the struts ??
See other response please
Nice job!!!!!
Appreciate you!
You’re correct that it only starts the unit. These units makes a high voltage non dedicated frequency rotor/stator power head because the inverter does it all. Battery start is nice when it works. Extra hardware is always good to have. Love the tywrap tip!!!! Thanks!
Thank you so much! I was wondering about that. Seemed different than what I thought.
Thanks for posting this. Very helpful. My light wouldn't illuminate until I jumpered the hot from the battery to the glow plug bar. It started my RTV X900 easily after doing that. You saved me a ton of troubleshooting time. Now I know to check the switch. Many thanks!
Glad to help you out. You're welcome!
I just got mine in today after watching this video I'm excited about some of the modes this tester can do
Awesome! I like mine and it is my traveling tester because it’s all in 1
Your videos are amazing. I really like it. I am a new subscriber to your channel. Can I talk with you Ray Of All Trades?
Thank you
@@RayofallTrades Can i talk to you?
Feel free to email me at roatrades@gmail.com
@ i did bro
They should come with a hour meter 😊😊😊. Would save a lot of engines every year
That’s a good idea. Maybe one of the aftermarket ones that wrap around the coil wire?
I don’t use my generator very much at all either. I would like to convert it to a dewalt battery for starting only. I always have them and they are always changed
Hmmm I wonder how that would work. Are they 12 volt batteries?
@ I have 12 or 20(they are really 18) The battery in the generator is always dead when I need it.
I’d be curious on how that turns out. I always have drill batteries ready too
@ I’ll let you know when Amazon delivers the adapter
Very cool thanks!
Rein Ciarfella finally achieves RUclips stardom! 😂 Honestly, I’m just glad I can add my useful two cents once in a while, I’ve gotten SO much from great RUclips creators over the past few years. 😉🔧👍
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and tips Rein!
Great tip on the for the tie rein
I liked it !
Happy Saturday great video I learned a great tip and thanks for the information on your video and ur work on those small engines
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Did you already know that battery hack?
Hey, Ray! Non-serviceable just means they want your money. ;-) I suspect at the factory they use an X-Acto knife to cut the bond and separate the two halves. That's the only thing that makes sense, unless they use a more sophisticated method of dissolving the adhesive, which is possibly CYA but may very well be something else. I would have used electronic cleaner on both sides of the board and the battery, or just alcohol on a Q-tip, because oils from your hands may mess up the circuitry eventually. On resealing, I probably would have used a tiny drop of CYA on each end and then hotglue all around. Glad you were successful at replacing the battery and it worked!
I didn’t think I could make the hot glue look nice. But maybe. Have you ever tried a small plastic welder( the type that looks like a glue gun but somehow acts like a mig welder for plastic)? Kinda curious if I could make that work. Thanks Rein! I hope your New year is going great!
Nope. I’ve used a hot knife which has a flat blade that’s leftover from a previous occupation as a sailmaker.
