Thanks for watching. This chainsaw has the worst fuel leak, I've ever seen and while fixing it, I might have made a bad choice.
Great fix. On a chainsaw It's always easier to pull the carb when doing fuel lines, even if it runs great and already has a new carb 🙂
you are correct about that, thank you Guys playing with tools.
Excellent Video 👍
I love the sound of these chainsaws. Great job!
Thank you very much Jaguar.
Easy fix. When these fixes are all that is needed, they make a great day.
you are correct, I like these very much
Thanks for such a detailed repair job video!
Very welcome!
This video was a great help in changing the fuel lines on my 460 rancher. It runs fine, and no fuel leaks. Thank you for posting the video.
Glad it helped
My 460 just did the same thing
Thanks! Had the same problem and was able to tear it down with your help
Glad it helped!
Great repair. The 455 is the farm boss. I have the same one and the oil leaks like a faucet. I never had the chance to open it up. But I will this winter.
nice, I hope you get the Oiler fixed, and I think the parts are still available. Thank you RayFpv.
Great Professional Style Video
thank you
Perfect fix. Really great!
thank you Dee Bee.
If handy, yes, replace the metering diaphragm. Great tutorial, as usual!!! Thank you...
Thanks again!
Nice fix, thanks for the video.
No problem Waterman one, and thank you
If I took the carb off, I would absolutely replace the metering diaphragm and clean the screen without even having to think about it. I don’t like do overs just a short time later. Since you stock them, it should be automatic.
you already know about the stock. thank you Bruce Coleman.
Thank you! Exact same failure here, your broken return line chunk looks just like the one still rattling around in this fuel tank. After 20 years of light homeowner use I can't complain. Great video, much appreciated.
no problem and thank you

Husqvarna is my go to brand. I think they are well made. I've never had a problem with husqvarna they are reliable in my opinion. But it all comes down to how people treat their equipment. I've seen people who are absolutely careless.
I like them too.
I've owned two of the 455s. The first one was stolen but I liked it so much that I bought another one just like it. Although somewhat heavy for me it does a great job. I also have an old 36 that I use for light work. That one was from the 90s and still works fine.
Thanks for sharing Steve Everett. Sucks the first one, was stolen.
I have a 460 rancher, and it is a bit heavy after a while. With a 24" bar, my son calls it Excalibur 😂
@@terryguffey9480 🤣🤣🤣
Great Video,Thanks !!!!
Glad you liked it!
Man that Rancher is a beauty. That cuts awesome. I've used diaphragms that weren't pristine as well. My moto is if their not hard and have life left in them then why not use them? Great stuff as always IHG
great Moto thank you Gary Allen!
Great video!
Thanks!
I think I’m going to step up to this model when I get a new chainsaw.
this is one very good saw, and worth it. thank you Growing Little Country homestead.
Dude I love the 455 rancher
me too!
Just depends on what's going on with me. I usually just replace stuff when needed but i things are iffy and I'm already there I'll do it for the sake of having it done and no worries about it. Good fix and Thanks
thank you Lewie McNeely
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE U2!
Nice fix
thank you James Hedrick.
Well done
thank you Mike Grappone.
That reminds me to start my shindiawa 591 chain Saw I believe that the fuel lines will be replaced on this Saw you are working on for your co worker
yes they will be.
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE great idea to do that
from my view on the original metering diaphragm i only replace it if i am still having issues etc and making sure the stem in the middle is the correct length etc.
you got that right, replacing it was just insurance.
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE for sure and i have had those odd issues on random occasions too etc.
Thank You
no problem and thank you
Damn good video
thank you BowLand Cartel
Hey bro, what's up? From the sound of this engine it is a very healthy engine bro. Some new fuel line, grommets and a fuel filter and its good to go again.
you are correct, this engine is still going strong, and hopefully it will stay that way too. thank you Ramadin Sookhoo.
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE you'rewelcome bro. Simple and effective repair
If you need wood to cut make your way to nova Scotia with that nice saw. We are still recovering from hurricane Fiona. I've been running my way too small troy bilt 42cc 16".
thank you Curtis Frost
Great video. What impact driver do you use to do repairs.
thanks k fresh drip, I use a Milwaukee drill, and a snap on 3/8" impact.
I had to repair the same model saw for a friend and the issue with this one was the fuel would leak into the engine overnight completely flooding it i tried a rebuild kit still didn't work and had to replace the carb i believe a check valve in the old carb hardened causing the leak.
yes you made a great choice to replace it. Thank you Jamie Crisp .
that grommet looks annoying but it is not as bad as the older Husqvarna 136 137 140 chain saws witch have a tinny hole took me a good day to get the fuel line in hade to drill the hole a bit bigger.
yes it can be a real pain
If they run the saw regularly, that one is perfectly fine. But if they don't run the saw very often, then that one will harden up before a new one would, I would think. (assuming the new aftermarket ones are as good as oe ones). But if they don't run it often and/or store it incorrectly, then it doesn't really matter because you will be replacing either one of them eventually.
you make a good point. Not sure how much they use it, but by the looks of it, I would say "not much"
I’ve got a 455 rancher, it’s been a tough saw. I know all about the after market filter, I had to file on mine to get it to fit. I won’t buy them again 😂😂
glad to see it's no just me. thank you Mike Jones .
Talks for your help
no problem
Is the trick with the ATF good for long term storage, and is filling up the fuel system with it good?
what's the trick, with the ATF?
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE It is to run the engine then pour out the gas from the gas tank fill up the gas tank with ATF start the engine on the fuel in the fuel lines until it stalls and fills up with ATF and remove the sparkplug and fill the engine up a little bit with ATF so the piston rings don't get stuck. The theory is that the ATF protects and lubricates seals, rubber components and the piston rings and they say the benefit is that it even cleans your engine with the deturgents in the ATF of carbon.
No, it works fine so why change it. You want to impress me, do a video on why the chain oil leaks out of these Husqvarna chai saws. Mine has been leaking for years and I can not find the leak for the love of me. I called Husqvarna and all they told me was they do that. Not the support I was looking for.
oooh. that's really tough. I hate working the oiling systems on these. If I had to guess, it's in the Oil pump. that's because basically an oil filter, line, pump and finally out to the bar.
There’s a difference between leaking, and the chainsaw just letting a little bit out as weather changes and as it sits. Every chainsaw is going to leak to some extent, but it shouldn’t all be gone within a day.
@@douglashaight24 I’m talking about down right leaking. I have to put the chainsaw in a plastic tray so the oil doesn’t run all over my garage floor. I’ve tried to fix it as well as bringing it into a shop and still no one is able to fix the leak. I’ve learned to live with it cause the saw is a awesome saw and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
@@williamsnow1531 ah I see, I can’t believe they won’t help you
@@williamsnow1531 I empty my bar oil reservoir when I'm not going to run the saw for a few weeks
I don't change the metering defran unless it really needed
makes complete sense.
I like my 460 rancher al0t!
me too.
You should see the tractor I’ve been driving around, I already posted it on my channel.
thanks I'll have to take a look
Hey Eric. I would say as long as the meter diaphragm. isn’t hard, I would suggest you just leave it and not spend more time on it. Do you accept lawn equipment like if one of your viewers, send you lawn equipment to fix. Would you fix it and send it back? And keep up the great work.
sure but there's a massive problem.. shipping cost.
The feasibility of doing it that way , is insanely expensive.
Oh I see. Do you know how much it would be? I’m just curious just in case any of my equipment needs fixing I could ship to you one day and you could make a video about it. Depending on the price of course.
I do understand some people are not mechanicly inclined and don't know how to work on stuff. But still.
just a fact of life I guess
So obviously his co worker gave him the saw to fix, but how do you find so many free machines like the ones you fix in your other videos?
I have a lot of good fiends who help me get stuff to work on.
Mine ended up being the fuel line going into the fuel tank from the primer bulb
nice work
Poor rancher left neglected and uncared for.
it certainly seems that way
Instead of all the grommets order a 440 2 piece fuel line and avoid future problem.
sounds like a good idea to me.
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE you can trim down the intake side and the extra piece will fit between the carb and the primer bulb
thanks for the tip
If I was getting paid to repair it I would replace the diaphragm .
you make a good point.
Plastic weld the tank
that works too!
H
Where did you order the grommets from for the fuel lines?
I order them from amazon
So I got a chainsaw and I just rebuilt it and It needs a compression release but I stuck a screw in there and thought it would fire up but it just squirted fuel out and it doesn’t even pop
sorry to hear that, hopefully you'll be able to find one.
