I actually have my four sizes of 2-stroke fuel lines in ziplocks exactly like yours! Most are genuine Tygon currently. I usually buy about 25 feet at a time.
If I spot a cracked purge bulb then it’s an automatic full service replacement of all lines and bulb. Same goes for stiff or broken lines. That way I have a baseline for the next time the piece comes in - no guessing about when one line will go next. I also automatically replace the metering diaphragm. So far I’ve found one pump diaphragm with a hairline crack I only spotted by holding it up to a light, so now I examine all of them that way in addition to looking at the reeds for flatness and the section over the collection area for too large of a bulge.
I agree, the problem is repairs on these handheld blowers can quickly exceed the value of them. Sometimes it can end up costing more to fix than it would to buy a new unit
That was absolutely beautiful- It runs like a top now! Outstanding job
Thanks Scout! 😁
Great change of pace! Good job - that thing runs better than most blowers! Thanks for the video!
Thank you! 👍🏻
18:54……funny as hell
😂😂😂 I was waiting for someone to catch that
I didn't think there was much hope for this blower at first, but you got 'er running great. Nice job!
Same! Definitely thought this was headed for the bin!

Wow! My first thoughts were that this one may have seen its last day. Well done, Sir! 👍👍
Thank you! This definitely could've gone south fast! 👍🏻

Nice save Hester, I thought that thing was gabbage to start with all it's issues. 👍
Yep I heard it. 🤣
Thanks John 😂👍🏻
🤣🤣 Anytime brother
Nice!!
Thank you! 👍🏻
I actually don’t think these are garbage blowers. If the fasteners are all T25 or T27
I call it decent quality.
I don't think these are bad blowers at all! I just thought this one in particular was almost neglected to the point of garbage

Oh, ok. Misunderstood. 😉
Some of the gasoline is sickening to smell, can’t believe they don’t even dump it before bringing to shop
I've smelt some bad gas in my time but this stuff was RIPE!
@@hester781 can’t get the dam smell off my hands for a week
