I understand some of the criticisms but it’s called making the best of what you’ve got . In the USA , Europe etc this piece of kit would just be thrown away but in other poorer countries that’s not an option , everything mechanical has to used until it’s totally unrepairable . For little to no money this guy has given this generator a new lease of life . Well done mate , I applaud you .
I live in the uk . Love videos like this . I get old Generators mowers etc and get them running again . It's true we live in a throw away society these days . Not great is it .
A very simple engine to repair. OHV, everything easy to uninstall and take apart. Good job on replacing the ball bearing. Robin EY18 is now on my wish-list. Such a simple, maintenance-friendly design.
Oh my goodness it seemed like this generator had over a 1000 parts! Your workmanship on this machine truly shined! Plus a Beautiful paint job!! You are a true craftsman! Brilliant job on this restoration! 👍🏻❤️😊🛠
You do a great job. I buy and repair generators here in the US, and then I sell them for a profit. I like your method for removing the rotor. Thank you.
Dan Hard, I'm sure his torque specs are perfectly fine. I really like his attention to detail. He clearly is very talented at restoration. You should check out some of his other videos. You may learn something from him. I did.
You did more with just basic hand tools than most of us in the West could do with a shop full of the best :) Very nice job. Not sure why anyone would post a thumbs-down.
There's a saying in my family, "if you see something nice n rusty, don't be afraid to get your hands dirty"..just fix it up!..awesome job on this generator👍
People who's asking about ring and everything, did you see how dead that thing was? I don't care what method did he use the man is a genuis. Bravo again my friend I respect you.
This is one of the finest rebuilds I have seen in a long time. I have only 2 things I didnt see, one was checking the ring gap and the other was knowing which spring was intake and exhaust, otherwise great job.
Bravo on all your efforts. You've done a very nice job on cleaning and repainting - looks great. One question, though: since you tore the whole thing down completelly, why did you not press out and replace the two ball bearing races that support the crankshaft in the engine, one at the front of the case that presses out, and the other in the removable back plate that likewise presses out? They're standard bearings if it's a Robin engine, and about $6 apiece at Commercial Bearing, BC Bearing, or Princess Auto (since you're in Saskatoon).. The ball races do not respond well to being flushed with de-greaser and then not being re-packed with grease, if you absolutely have to re-use them. Princess Auto sell a cheap bearing race packing tool for a few bucks, and the genuine Lisle bearing grease packing tool for less than $10. The bearings themselves can be pressed out with pieces of wooden dowel and a vice, press, or even a deep c-clamp, which can be borrowed from an auto parts store and is made for reaching around things like the crankcase. I have a `949-1950 Onan single-cylinder generator that runs quiet and smooth as butter, since it only runs at 1800 RPM. It puts out 1 KW at 120 VAC continuous. Very heavy, but built to last, and it has. The engine crankcase has Timken roller bearings pressed in (if the manual is accurate). If no press or similar device can be had, the bearings can be tapped out (very gently) after heating the area of the crankcase around the bearing with a torch to expand the housing. Unlike some of the "used and throw away" cheaper Briggs & Stratton (and other) engines, Robin in Britain made the engines like you have there to last. Robin were still in business as of a few years ago.
Here's a trick for making perfect gaskets. Cut the gasket shape really vaguely and without any holes. It should overlap the entire surface that you're covering. Then, apply your gasket sealer to the edge, making sure you're got full coverage. Wait for it to dry, then take razor and cut out using the metal edge as a guide. You'll end up with a perfect gasket!
Talk about a brake down 👍 should last one more life time... well done ... still not sure why two fill ups in one tank .. I assume it’s a split tank gas and Diesel ?
I have been watching a lot of restoration videos lately. Regardless of the techniques or technology, I always have the same question. HOW THE HELL DO YOU REMEMBER HOW TO PUT IT ALL BACK TOGETHER?????
video recorded reverse engineering really, just keep it tidy and don't make a mess or lose things, they all somehow come together in the end, if or when you're stuck you just go back and watch how you dismantled it in the first place.
I have seen a few times where " Sunny Paint remover" is used....I'm not sure that you are putting it on thick enough.....but I have never seen it work very well
Huh the company Robin makes some interestingly designed engines. A 2 stroke turning counterclockwise, and this 4 stroke has the position of intake/exhaust ports reversed making the exhaust closer to the front of the engine. Granted this sure doesn't beat one of the Clinton engines from the 50s with 2 camshafts and one valve on each side of the engine. anyway good restoration...

Disposable < repairable
Kenneth Hume also I wonder how many californians would've wanted at least one of these when they got completely shut off
I live in the uk .
Love videos like this .
I get old Generators mowers etc and get them running again .
It's true we live in a throw away society these days . Not great is it .
You get a like from Los Angeles, California USA you gave me something to watch on my birthday that made sense. 🤗👏👏🙌
A very simple engine to repair. OHV, everything easy to uninstall and take apart.
Good job on replacing the ball bearing.
Robin EY18 is now on my wish-list. Such a simple, maintenance-friendly design.
I really enjoy watching you bring life back into old objects. Thank you.
Great restoration. Very well done Sir! Greetings from Southport, UK

ya im sure his torque specs are good also haa haaa
Dan Hard, I'm sure his torque specs are perfectly fine. I really like his attention to detail. He clearly is very talented at restoration. You should check out some of his other videos. You may learn something from him. I did.
Give them a job maybe?
John is it difficult to get parts?
I used eBay for all of my parts.
ЗОЛОТЫЕ РУКИ У ПАРНЯ !! УМНИЧКА !ЗДОРОВЬЯ ТЕБЕ !!!
That's a better job than many of us here in the US can do with a 100k shop and tools. Good job man! You did awesome! Subscribed.
Witam!! Udana renowacja Generatora rozruchowego!!Dokladnosci rzetelnosci cierpliwosc daje efekty!!Dobry pokaz filmowy!!Okey!!
You did more with just basic hand tools than most of us in the West could do with a shop full of the best :) Very nice job. Not sure why anyone would post a thumbs-down.
My thoughts exactly. Imagine this guy with euro / US tools at hand? Genius!
Nice job WITHOUT a fancy parts washer, bench grinder, sand blaster...awesome job. Imagine what he could do with a modern shop with all "the toys"?
There's a saying in my family, "if you see something nice n rusty, don't be afraid to get your hands dirty"..just fix it up!..awesome job on this generator👍
Greetings from California. Bro, great job. Fantastic. It’s hard work, but the end product is like brand new. Thank you.
People who's asking about ring and everything, did you see how dead that thing was? I don't care what method did he use the man is a genuis. Bravo again my friend I respect you.
very respectful to the environment. all the oil poured into the environment
You're really good at what you're doing. Good luck you deserve to be rich my friend. 👏 👏 👏
Looks good! I think you did a great job considering what you have to work with! Your patience is golden.
Hay good job from Australia 🇦🇺 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Great job - Came out great! Love the ghost hand sneaking in at 8:45
NICEly done......iv'e got an old coleman powermate 1400......it needs it's fuel tank fixed, just waiting for the warmer weather.
Como siempre decirle,que es el mejor de restauración.Impecable.
Wow, a lot of work!!!
Very nice, good job 👍👍👍
Very nice & impressive job. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Great job on restoration, should send video to Wisconsin Robin, they would probably use it in their advertisements for longevity of products.
:-) Love it when someone totally disassembles something to do it correctly. Nice.
This is one of the finest rebuilds I have seen in a long time. I have only 2 things I didnt see, one was checking the ring gap and the other was knowing which spring was intake and exhaust, otherwise great job.
its amasing how modest workshop gave one proffesional paint vs orther restoration vids with proffesional who use spray paint... gj mate
as an engineer I am very much pleased to back the life of this generator, well done.
Well, I suppose generating electricity is better than not generating electricity, so well done lads.

This video popped up on my recommend so im watching

Bohot badiya restoration 👌👌👌👌👌❤️❤️❤️
Excellent work

Only people with hate in their hearts voted thumbs down
I feel sorry for them
Very nice job! It is useful and beautiful again!
This was a great video. Fantastic work bros. Nice tinkering and ratchet sounds 👍🏽
Nice job. I’ve seen a bunch of really crappy restorations, but you do really nice work.
Robin is one of the best brands of engines, congrats for your job!
Very nice work, Try to get yourself a nice pair of shoes soon, Your a hard worker and deserve them, Keep up the videos there really great,

Mr Beaver, I was looking at a subaru 13.5 hp 8000- probably hard to get parts?

Well it's a first for me. A resto video filmed in what appears to be a jungle clearing!! Not a safety boot to be seen!!! I like it👍
I think those were Safety Thongs...when they were worn! :-)
*_Respect to your hard work..._*
Very good job with a beautiful result.
Pleasure to watch! And excellently done!
Good work.good workmanship

Crank bearing, otherwise a really good restoration I'd say. Nice
Wow love the work you do 💯😎
Very nice set well done! 👍 👍
Wow a 2 cycle awesoms..great restoration.. Cheers 🍻🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I think that is a 4 stroke...intake and exhaust valves. Looks almost like a briggs and stratton engine
The engines actually really well made from an enginers standpoint for the glimpses i could get
great job very nice work
Very nice job. You can trade that for several very attractive sheep...or a dozen ugly ones.
fuel tank with two caps that is goofy good video Wow that was a difference day and night metal brush on the press drill cool idea
Wow brilliant I liked your page
Awesome job!! Keep the videos coming!
Excelente trabajo amigo!!! Felicitaciones
U just turn the ugly one to the nice one.. good job i like it
Talk about a brake down 👍 should last one more life time... well done ... still not sure why two fill ups in one tank .. I assume it’s a split tank gas and Diesel ?
Excellent work!
Awsome job kid keep it up YES SIRRRRRRRR
I have been watching a lot of restoration videos lately. Regardless of the techniques or technology, I always have the same question. HOW THE HELL DO YOU REMEMBER HOW TO PUT IT ALL BACK TOGETHER?????
Everything is on tape all he has to do is rewatch the video
video recorded reverse engineering really, just keep it tidy and don't make a mess or lose things, they all somehow come together in the end, if or when you're stuck you just go back and watch how you dismantled it in the first place.
Really great job !
أحسنت يا ...استاذ ... تحياتى لك ...
