    Thank you sincerely for these videos. They’ve been a great help. You explain things like my dad - lots of “that”s and “this”s. I don’t know what you’re referring to when you say “that” or “this”. Its a little hard to follow

    Just a recommendation, it would be easier to understand if you had the carburetor on a stand and pointed out the parts with a pointing stick.

    2:21 Do you hold throttle full open the whole time when placing or setting choke cap?
    By holding the throttle open, is it releasing pressure against the choke plate?
    I'm watching all your YF/YFA videos to learn how it works

    Rebuilding my YFA. Used to be a feedback model but has had bimetallic choke added. There is no choke pull off or solenoid. Should I be concerned about adding one?

    where does the hot air come from? do you just run a barb connection then run it to that port on the top side of the carb?

      There is a pipe running down from the choke to the top of my manifold so that the warm air opens the choke gradually

      Isn't that the piece you can see just sitting on the bench at 2:48? Wondering why it's left out unless it was just for demonstration in the video.

    My YFA is only about 5 months old. When I set the black cap and tighten the three screws the cap still rotates fairly easy. How easy to rotate or locked in place should the cap be in the three screws are tightened?

      @@MikesCarburetor there's not a gasket. It's just the screws, plastic cap with hook and heat coil in choke. It's not electric it has the two hot air tubes that go down to exhaust manifold. By the way, should I put some kind of insulation cover on them? Instead of me asking at O'Reilly's or AutoZone, do y'all sell the gasket?
