- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2021
- I went out garage sale picking and came across this red max commercial back pack leaf blower. the owner said a landscaping company left it behind about 6 years ago and knows nothing about its condition. let put it up on the bench and see what happened to it and can it be fixed?

Mustie1 was so kind during his terrible illness that he never told us (his parents) that he was sick for over two weeks out of concern for OUR health. He managed to project an "almost" normal tone in his weekly phone call and we hardly noticed that anything was "off". He always had a considerate and giving heart, but this just warmed us from our head to our toes.
I wouldnt expect anything less from him. No surprise at all that he did that for you.
He was raised very well and it shows, you must be very proud. Great job!
And to think a simple couple of shots could have greatly reduced his downtime.
You've got a great son, i have been a subby of Darrens for a long time, always interesting. Bob, (81) New Zealand.
he's lucky to still have parents! not calling him old or anything, but still! :)
It's great to have you back Darren! It is very disappointing to hear you advocating @ 37:36 for snake-oil and witch doctors.
Yeah, unfortunately he claims Witch doctors and snake oil is what healed him but if he would have but if he would have got a vaccine he would have been walking around just fine four days after he got it. I got the vaccine and contracted Covid. Was only down for three days with bad sore throat. On the fourth day I was back to walking three miles a day around my favorite lake.
It is sad. people taking things they recommend towards the end of their recovery then claiming it was what got them over the last hump. but realistically the studies show its ineffective. Just get vaccinated...
@@ale6242 exactly, as intelligent as mustie is it would probably be impossible to convince him it was his own immune system got him through it and not the snake oil….
Darren seems so analytical, that was a true surprise.
Y'all keep regurgitating your approved talking points based off bought and paid for "science" like good little sheep.
Meanwhile cases of extremely adverse side effects and death continue coming out...due directly to your miracle jab. Meanwhile the non biased science says the vaccinated are responsible for the variants....annnnd you can still get it and spread it. Natural immunity is Superior. That snake oil is highly accredited all over the world for treating many illnesses in humans.
It's pretty obvious y'all haven't followed the money and did your research on the main characters in this story. How naive.
And if any of y'all happen to be "Christian"....go study Pharmakia in the Bible.
Good to see that you guys are recovering from the "big C".
I am a Swede and I stumbled over your channel, like a year ago. My father died a while back and left an old Briggs and Stratton lawnmover that was becoming a part of the landscape scenery behind his old garage. My mother planed to take it to the city dump but thank´s to you and your vids I managed to bring her back to life.
My son call it Connor MacLeod, the machine that can not die and it´s now 47 years old and running.
I think of my dad every time she starts up and for that i am truly grateful.
My friends has left me all kinds of machinery and I got them all to work. The biggest quest I had so far was a really beaten garden tracktor. The owner is a widower with a rigidly operated foot. She cried when i got it for her.
Keep up the good work! You are a true inspiration to a lot of people all over the world!
Mate it is good to see you back to the Spannering and we can hear in your voice your still not 100% over it , the fact that your back doing videos and fixing stuff is amazing and i appreciate anything you put out i am a 50 something year old Scotsman and love watching you work it inspires me to “think” i can fix things but in reality i tend to bugger it up worse lol but i like trying you give me faith …. Stay well and get better soon
I am so glad to see you back at it. I was very sad to hear that you were sick and I hope you get back to 100%. You are truly one of my favorites to watch. You inspire me to fix all my things. Thanks for what you do!
Sundays have just gotten better, pleased to see Mustie back and in good spirits.
@@shawnrenaud2252 Well said. Even though having the shots won't 100% prevent a COVID infection and symptoms the vaccine will, in the majority of cases, ensure that any infection is far less unpleasant/life threatening/fatal. Vaccines also don't 100% prevent transmission but they certainly help and, of course, the more people who are vaccinated the less chance of transmission. Some vaccines are naturally better than others but it partly depends on the person and various other factors.
I am really thankful to see you back at it I was really sad and disappointing to hear that you were sick ,I hope you get back 200%. You were one of the reasons for me to get into small engine repair. I always was fascinated by it but I needed an extra push. Thanks for bringing me hours of fun Mr. Darren. It’s good seeing you up and about and doing what you love best again. World is thankful to have you as a role model. You are the best there is no other.✊🏽✌️. Stay up my brotha. Truly feel like I am with you whenever I am watching your videos. Man I wish I was right there by your side. I would have so much fun. Take care my friend. Live long and prosper us.
amen
Really glad you're back, I hope you get 100% really soon.
I'm glad you're on the mend.
I'm sad to hear you disparaging the CDC.
Cdc, and Fauci are greedy and evil. They don't care about making people well. They funded gain of function that made the virus spread to humans..... you're brainwashed
🤡
@@jimmyrivano3477
The CDC were apolitical.
A certain white house occupant made them political and poisoned their credibility.
Now you'd rather listen to lies from political hacks who have no medical background, that's what is sad.

Watching Mustie1 inspires me to fix my own garden equipment. The latest was a Shindaiwa EB8520 blower. Gas tank and filter dirty, wrong type of pre-filter and carbon deposits on muffler. All good now. Really nice blower worth looking out for. Glad to hear Mustie1 and his wife are back on track to good health.
Gotta love Mustie. Recovering from the lung-damaging respiratory virus and proceeds to fill the workshop with exhaust smoke 😂😂😂 go get em Mustie!
I don't want to see him walking around with an oxygen tank.
Glad to know you and your wife are recovering, your health is what is most important. In a way I'm inclined to think your weekly videos are therapeutic to many people. I always look forward to Sunday morning with Mustie, you are a treasure, sir!
I 100% second this! I don't find 1st gear without a Mustie vid on sundays. I am all set to go now.
I'm even started looking forward to his Sunday video release.
Hope you and your wife are on the mend.
Yes they are therapeutic when i had it in Jan i watched so many of musties vids and Karl rocks vids they deffo helped pass the days.
I could'nt say it better. Thanks Mike ! Yep, I was anctiously waiting for today's vlog,
for the content of course but mainly to see our dear friend Darren in better shape.
Glad to hear that the Ms is also getting better. 👍😊
Coffee and Mustie 1. Nothing Better.
Glad you're back!
@burningfeet57 Damn, is he posting Covid updates anywhere?
@burningfeet57I think it's new, you can tell by his voice.
@@oldcarnocar 👍🏾💪🏾
@@fullmetaljacket7 And the weight loss, scary stuff
@@sukalanger yeah my neighbour got it a year ago he lost 20 lbs easy he was off his feet for about a month him and his wife but they're both 75-plus and they made it...
You have no idea how much I appreciate that you didnt use a Bic lighter to shrink the heatshrink. I hate when people do that so much.
Welcome back man, can still hear it in your voice a little, take care, we all send you and her ladyship our best wishes
Glad you and your wife are recovering. Continue to put you and your wife's health as priority one.
Thank you for being back, I have missed you.
Now that was hilarious, I'm glad to see you got an unhappy face leaf blower. It's nice to know mustie1 that you haven't lost your sense of humor. I'm guessing that is a good sign hoping that you and your family are recovering nicely. Many blessings to you all.
Good to see you back, Mustie! Made my day. I feel confident your tools missed just you as much as all of us did.
From all of us subscribers here in the Philippines, I would just like to say, we are all happy down here to see you back on your feet again and looking forward to your hidden project behind the white curtain. Stay safe and healthy always!
I was hoping the blower might lift the veil for all of us!
That's Mustie's idea of clic bait we all know it be worth the wait .
@@RadRob84 🤣🤣🤣
Kojak, cheers to all the fine people of the beautiful Philippine Islands. Jewels of the Southwest China Sea!
@@shannonwittman950 cheers and keep safe y’all!
Sooo glad to hear you and your wife are on the mend. We’ve lost too many to this disease, needlessly I might add.
Yeah, tell that to the families of the 674,000 dead in America so far.
Not going to argue with you. It’s would be fruitless.
Don't know what I'd do without your videos here every Sunday. Good you took care the way you wanted with no pressure from Big Brother! 👍✌
So glad that you and your wife are on the mend!
I’m glad you’re both feeling better! So happy you’re back.
You have the "i just coughed my lungs out for weeks" voice. Glad you're back!
So glad to hear you and your wife are on the mend. But, I have to add that your channel has been one huge refuge from the noise of the constant bombardment of newsfeeds, internet, and other sources out there today regarding COVID and politics. I've always appreciated your easy going manner, knowledge, abilities, and neutrality to enjoy with my morning cup of coffee (or two). "Fixing rusty junk" has become somewhat your mission statement. Please focus on the rusty junk and just get better, however you choose. All the best to you and your wife.
Glad you're back! Side note, instead of taking horse dewormer...there's literally a free vaccine everywhere.
This was a perfect project for Mustie as he continues to build stamina. TWO thumbs up! 👍 👍
You still sound like your not over COVID yet. Glad you made it. I enjoy your videos.
I was so relieved to see this video. I am so glad you guys are feeling better. You have no idea how much I have learned from your videos and I am so appreciative.
Welcome back. I know it's a rough sickness, my wife died a couple of weeks back, so it's no joke. I'm glad y'all are well.
Sorry for your loss.
I know I can't say anything to make you feel any better about this, and yet I feel a need to tell you we feel for you. It may sound like a platitude but it's the only thing I can think of. Take care and keep placing one foot before the other. As bad as you may feel right now the world keeps on turning and your friends and family are still out there. Don't hesitate to lean on them when you need to.
Sorry for your loss. It is really rough losing a Wife and will get a little better with time.
My sincere sympathies.
My sympathies from over the water to you, Ruben
Thank you for having the courage to give a shout out to the FLCCC and the work they have been doing to save lives during the "cxxxx pandemic " Their protocols have saved many lives and could have saved millions if allowed to do so. As usual , excellent tutorial on how to bring something (someone?) back to life !
Good to see you back.
Nice small project to start with.
Great to hear you and your wife are on the mend, Darren. I had Covid recently myself and I'm still pretty tired because of it but the little bit of tinkering I was able to do in the garage was very important for my sanity and mental well being! Look after yourselves! Ross 🇮🇪
Darren, I am so glad to hear that you and yours are doing better. Go at your own pace and work on stuff as you feel able. I know the feeling of needing to get out and do things, as well as feeling that "sense of duty" to those who partake of your offerings. Just know that we will be here, and will support you by watching your content as you provide it. All the best to you and Mrs Mustie.
I never once thought about your wife having covid. God I'm glad to hear that both of you guys are pulling out of this. I know it's a slow process but at least it is working it seems like. But I'm just really glad to hear that both of you guys are feeling better. Any way that you can find out how, you guys just need to take care of yourselves. Worry about getting well. Thanks again for the updated video. Really enjoyed watching it. Can't wait for you to get back on the Kubota.
Glad you guys are getting better
Mustie doesn't seem to respond to replies anymore. wonder why.
@@Ihavetruth22 Mustie was out for COVID, give the man a break.
@@carloweis7949 he seldom says thanks or hi anymore. it's becoming business for him.
@@Ihavetruth22 His videos generate multiple thousands of comments. And I haven't even found a way to list all of them at once. Pretty hard slog to get through them all, if you want to have a life.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Mustie1. So glad to see you’re better. Stay healthy.
I hope you and your wife are better soon. You're voice is very different. Best wishes from Holland
FLCCC?? smh. I'm glad you're getting back on your feet. I hope you don't have any long term effects from the human malware or what you took to try and fight it.
Been safely used for years to treat many illnesses I'm humans, award winning actually. Now that potion they cooked up in the jab has really messed alot of people up and killed some too.
I am happy that you and your family are recovering . We have missed your work. I have missed your lessons.
The Legend returns ❤️ glad you’re back up and about doing the do the world has missed you.
Very glad to see you back, we will continue prayers for your health.
Ditto
And what are prayers gonna do?
@@majesticskeever evidently more then you will ever know
That comment about them putting that kill switch where they did so you can stab yourself in the finger was both funny as hell and just as accurate. Best laugh of my day. Thanks!
Your mom and dad melted my heart in a previous video. You are a good son and have made your parents proud. So much more I could say, but this should do. Respectfully, Brad
I was going to change rear shock absorbers on my car now, but it suddenly got postponed for some strange reason! :)
Mustie thank you for everything you do. I can't even count the # of small engines I've saved from the trash or from rip off repair shops just this past year by using all of the knowledge I've learned from you. You not only provide great entertainment and information, but the steps on how to diagnose everything step by step. Sunday's without you just wouldn't be the same for me. I hope you're feeling better!
WE LOVE YOU, Mustie! Great to see you back in the saddle. Nice score on the leaf blower. You deserve it. Peace.
Absolutely glad to hear you both are healing, but definitely can hear the strain in your voice. Best to you both !
I’ll join the crowd and say “welcome back” mustie1! You’re an asset to the youtube community and make many people happy each sunday... hope for all the best to you and Mrs. Mustie!
Very true!!!
Glad to see you back on your feet after getting Covid , I noticed it has affected your voice, hopefully you will fully recover soon 👍
Rona sucks! especially for us 40 and over guys! Take your vaccine guys!
@@ibidu1 that it yourself and shut up. Enough with the idiocy.
@@fartsquirel880 you not get enough seed in the chops last night?
@@ibidu1yea guys take your vaccine they work a treat so well indeed
@@Rambogner I’ve never heard the expression “enough seed in your chops” before. Where did that come from? Cheers.
How did I miss you guys were ill? Is there a "secret squirrel" channel for Mustie where I'm not a member and if so, could some kind elderly shade tree mechanic show me the handshake for the back room? After all the videos, shop moving, and adventures with mower racing, I feel close enough to being a friend to care about their well-being. I'm glad everyone's better and very sorry to learn of the illness, though. Please be safe and healthy to you and yours.
GLAD to learn that family is doing well! Great video on blower! While I do not agree with your medical decisions, this is not the community/channel to discuss them! 🙏🙏🙏
Your work ethic is unrivalled. So glad you have recovered and sound fit & well again 🤙🏻
Welcome back Mustie! The 'first start' laugh is a bit of a cackle (for now) but it was good to hear it just the same. I suspect a few hundred thousand people are pleased to see you on the mend and it's good to hear that your wife is recovering too, just splendid news.
*Edited to remove name as suggested by commenters, thanks guys.
Maybe the the name out
So glad you and your wife are better.
Glad to see your back and hope you will both be 100% fairly quickly. Still can’t work out how you are such a fountain of knowledge. Such an inspiration thank you mr and mrs Mustie 1. Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪
I just bought a generator at auction that had been sitting for years. You gave me the confidence to clean the carb and get it running. I now have a working generator. Thanks for the education and confidence!
Same here. Found several rather recent lawn mowers that had plugged carbs. I got them running. Even bought an ultra sound machine to clean them . Now neighbors ask if I can fix theirs. Thanks.
@@janetyeoman1544
WOW!
Is this a first for Mustie's channel?
( ...my daughter was an Army tank retrieval specialist.)
Much respect !
I had a whole essay written up about scientific concensus, the doctors-behind-flccc's shady history, etc. But really I'm just happy you made it though mustie. I lost a family member to it, and it kicked my asthmatic ass.
I just was stuck in bed for a few nights / days and then fairly quickly my fever broke and i was up and walking around again. I didn't take anything or get any medical assistance but i am a bit younger (25). I had issues with lung capacity / vision for months after i recovered.
My brother, on the other hand, didn't even get any symptoms.
When you have the patience and know how, things just work out really nice!!!!😁 Stay well and glad you and your wife are better!!!!
Glad you and your wife are doing better! Will keep you and your wife in our Prayers! You have a 1/2 million plus Friends pulling for you and your Wife, GOD Bless!
Glad you're feeling well enough to tackle this project! Sundays are not the same without Mustie1. Please take it easy till you feel 100%!
I have the FLCCC medicine ready to go just in case my day comes! Glad you both are OK .
Glad yer back! Covid's a harsh mistress
On a note about the leaf blower: they are excellent for use with any vehicle cleaning, especially steam cleaning. Dries them off in seconds. also great for snow removal (on cars especially) They also make great bonfire starters, being able to flow vast amounts of air to a starving flame deep in the heart of the brush pile...
Also good for help in burning out a stump. Pretty handy little device.
I was always told not to use a gas blower to dry off a car. Your blowing an oil mix all over the paint.
Might want to watch out for sending burning embers 50+ feet away from a bonfire...
@@tedpergolizzi6455 The air blower part is separated from the engine, it's not like you're using the tail pipe (they are filthy) to dry things off. Only connection is the output shaft, then the fan blower does the rest.
** That is NOT correct for all blowers! I just worked on a Ryobi BP42 and Ryobi chose to vent some of the engine exhaust into the blower exhaust, so there ARE in fact some of the combustion gases (including oil from the fuel mix) going out the blower nozzle. I believe this is a somewhat new design and I don’t know the reason for it. The blower had only been used a short time so there was no evidence of exhaust gas residue at the nozzle. To be clear, this turned out to NOT be a repair job, simply a determination as to why the owner had a difficult time starting the engine. It was operator error - I could start the engine consistently with 5 presses of the primer bulb, 2 pulls on choke and a third pull choke off. Great machine!
Welcome back my friend. Your voice is not quite the same but your humor is. Thanks for the video. Take care of yourself and don't work to hard
I always enjoy watching your channel, because you're usually able repair something with minimal fuss, and spend a lot of money on it. You practice a lost art in today's world, making something out of nothing. And glad to hear that you and your wife are better. Stay safe!
Watching your videos has given me the confidence to dive into repair projects that in the past I would have been afraid to tackle. The satisfaction derived from fixing things far outweighs the satisfaction of spending 5-10 times as much buying some shiny new gadget that probably won’t last half as long as what I repaired. Thank you!
Watching a repair is 10x better {and easier} than cracking open a boring technical manual {that you had to buy $$ more than likely}, and reading up was necessary before this {free} information age. Fortunately, once you begin small engine repair you learn from experience that most everything is designed the same way and you are therefore "just like Mustie" at that point. I got two free 2-stroke machines {weedeater and leaf blower} going again after 10 minutes of RUclips video viewing. Great stuff. 👍
Great to see you back at your best. Thanks for the great content you always put online. I am in the professional horticultural repair business myself for 40yrs and you never stop learning.
My neighbors just love me playing these videos at full volume, late on a Sunday night. Vrrrooooom
I can see mustie doing ASMR kinda chillin out than BAM he starts the blower up. 🤣🤣
Great to see you back, you'll soon be back to your fighting weight :) All the best from Scotland.
Glad to see you're sounding, and getting stronger Darren. Stay on the mending trend!
Man I love this guys videos! Such a smart dude. Glad you’re feeling better.
Glad to hear that you and your wife are recovering. Best wishes from Australia..
Good to see you back, hope you and your wife make a full recovery and regain all your strength.

Glad you are aware. That the games continue........

Sunday evening Mustie has become essential the last few years - I am really glad you are getting back on your feet. Prayers for you and your wife that you make a full recovery. Stay safe and healthy!
I love this, my hands don't work so well anymore, so it's nice to see someone going through a nice rewarding process. Thank you sir.
Great to see you back, and next to laughter, tinkering is the best medicine! And next to that, watching you tinker is a GREAT medicine! Thanks for the great video! Take care, and don't push it!
Glad to see you're on the road to recovery, fast recovery to you and your wife!
Funny how my Sunday doings only reveal themselves as habitual when they're disrupted.
Mustie, I'm glad that you're on the mend, and here's to your healthy future!
THANKS MUCH for sharing your world with us!!
Assuming COVID challenged your respiratory system, PLEASE think about using a mask when blowing out your garage, mouse-houses, etc. Clearly you fought hard and bravely to get better. SOOOOO good to have you back.
LOL Nobody wore masks to prevent covid, you think they're going to wear masks AFTER? ROFL A simple, free, tried and true shot could have prevented all of this.

We need a Mustie 1 coffee cup that says "don't drink this"
Totally... Scalding hot or 50:1 are your choices.
A white cup with a blue/green stain inside
All good options. I'll take one of each and I don't drink coffee.
Why not? His buddy Taryl Fixes All has his own line of merchandise, as does almost every other youtuber. It wasn't so obvious this time that Mustie was using his Taryl cup to boil the fuel tank grommet back to size, but he does free Taryl advertising in nearly every video now. Is "don't drink this" a famous Mustie line?
It's wonderful to see you back wrenching. But your hands look so clean. Feel better and take care of yourself and the Mrs.
Thanks for the update video. Family first big fella look after you and yours. We will still be here .
It's so good to see you back, let's hope you and your wife make a full recovery. Great show as always.

Just picked this exact model redmax out of a flooded area from this most recent storm in NY. Filled with water in every crevis. I'll tell ya what. she runs and operates real good, now. Not a bad little blower. Surprised she made the cut. Cleared the water out of it within a week of the flood though. Helped it didn't sit for too long. Been watching ya for a long time. Cheers to future adventures.

Welcome back hope you are well, best wishes from Bonnie Scotland
Pleased to hear you and the wife are making a recovery, onward and upwards my friend.
