    A tutorial series from Squatch Senior is welcome and appreciated. It's quite easy to see where Squatch gets his detail oriented approach. Y'all are a formidable team that has passed knowledge to those of us who love the classic iron.

    Senior you remind me of my grandfather! He will be 83 on the 4th of July and is still turning wrenches on lawn and garden equipment. I always enjoy watching him tear into a carburetor and explain the process. Looking forward to your next video sir! Cheers from Cape Breton Nova Scotia

    I have gone to running a pretty heavy dose of marvel mystery oil in my pony gas. It really seems to have helped with limiting deposits and corrosion.

      @bcbloc02 2 года назад +1

      Forgot to mention I had already been running Stihl synthetic 2 stroke fuel mix as well as a top end lube snd fuel stabilizer. I would rather my old engine be smoky than rusty snd in the humid environment of Kentucky it is a big battle with sweat and rust especially with the common 50-60deg daily temp swings we get.

    I'm going to to rebuild my pony motor carb soon so this video series is much appreciated. Thank you I'm wondering if you can tell me how... or do a video on removing the hydraulic pump from a D4-7U. It's in the front mounted tank. A video on changing the hydraulic pump seals and a general inspection would be great too! I bought the D4 about 12 years ago and the hydraulics were non-op then. Previous owner said he was operating it and all the hydraulic fluid suddenly blew out of it and sprayed back covering him. Your valuable insight and input would be greatly appreciated.

    If the carb doesnt have an external float bowl vent the carb may be internally vented in the air horn of the carb to the ffloat bowl.

  • @northdakotaham1752
    @northdakotaham1752 2 года назад +1

    I have that later version of TU4C on my D4. The kits you can get do not include many of the parts you can destroy when disassembling the carburetor. Worn throttle shaft, bushings....a problem.

    Have been looking forward to this series since you mentioned it almost a year ago!
    Whelp my jet assembly separated while taking the carb apart, P/N 5F7640, and I'm looking for another one (or a whole carb/throttle body). I didn't realize it was 2 parts, but the needle was stuck in the throttle body so unscrewing the assembly just caused the heavy press holding the parts together to separate. My backup plan is to try and fabricate one using some .093 x .014 wall brass tube. Anyone out here have a carb they're willing to sell? If not I'll buy parts - I also need a new choke plate shaft, P/N 9B4977 I believe. The screws sheared off when trying to remove them after melting the solder, I may not have gotten the backside hot enough. I can try to drill out the fasteners, but it would be easy to just turn a new part if I can't find a replacement.
