    My carburetor was badly corroded so I replaced it. Actually twice. All jets are clear and clean , properly installed. The replacement carb has a mixture scew where the original had a plug. The machine fires well on brake cleaner but refuses to run on gas. Gas is fresh 91 octane pure gasoline. I replaced the fuel tank, cut-off, added a fuel filter, lines and carb. What can my problem be ? I have set the mixture screw open 1-1/2 turns and varied it up to 3 turns with no results. This one has me baffled. Help if you can. Thanks

    There is a spring on the accelerator rod that is un hooked. It was when you started working on it. It keeps the rod from falling out of it;s hole. If you look close at the engine side of the rod. it is flopping there. I had to do my carb about a week ago. That is why I spotted it.

My blower is Craftsman, but I cannot find "drive cable" listed on the parts list in my user manual. Any clue how I can find out the part number, and then find the part too? Thanks so much in advance for your help!

  • @Friday1970
    @Friday1970 Месяц назад

    Thank you for the tutorial. This worked like a charm for me. Once I pulled out the carburetor, it was exactly like yours. Could not see through the jets. I did buy an ultrasonic cleaner, but had to run sewing bobby pins through the jet to clear it out. Once reassembled, it took only one pull to start it. I decided to let then entire tank a fuel run through it rather than stopping the engine and letting old fuel gum up the carb again.

      @TheSmallEngineMechanic 2 месяца назад

      @oliverhelle6043 I don't see why it couldn't. Just need to watch for boiling. As long as you keep it under 100 Celsius, it won't boil, but it will evaporate quickly. On my ultrasonic, I keep it at 50 C.

    Thanks for this. I have the same model and cleaned the carb twice and still wouldn’t start. Your video showed how me how to take the main jet out and when I did, it was plugged solid. Got it started after clearing the jet. Question though. The motor hunts for RPM. It did this before too. The throttle goes back and forth until I am actually spaying water or loading the engine. Any ideas why?
