$25 Generator From Lowes - Will It Run?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 авг 2017
- This little generator caught my eye when I was shopping at Lowe's. I couldn't pass up the price or the opportunity for a challenge so I brought it home. It's a Generac iq2000 model that looks pretty rough.

A person like you who is always ready to work to support his family deserves some fun, so I tell you to enjoy it.
I wish you so much health and serenity to your wonderful family.
Forgive me if my english is not correct.
Thank you I appreciate your kind thoughts and comment.
You should of adjusted the valves before removing the head,instead of flooding the spark these engines now days have compression release
this video was interesting as shit and i don't even own nor plan to own a generator
Joe Ryco Don't swear
Joe Ryco that's because it's small engine repair
Danielchai S oh jeez it's a u tube post..
big ass dude piston rings,,,
Joe Ryco Get a Generator. Even a little one, just something that you could plug your refrigerator into, even if you don't run anything else. I swear, you'll be glad you did one day.
This was interesting and entertaining. Love the lit in your wife's voice when she speaks to you--it tells a lot about how happy you two are.
Coming from a licensed mechanic, I can't praise you enough for not boring me to death!! Very good with your explanations and never made any mistakes with your terms ! Definitely one of the better Chanel's out there !
When your wife told you your hairs thinning you should of told her that her mustache isnt

@Bleef R. Now that’s berry punny. 😹😹😹😹😹😹😹...🤫🤫🤫🤫😁
Good example. Winston Churchill. A lady gets in his face and states sir you are drunk. Churchill responds. Yes, mam, I am and you are ugly. But tomorrow I will be sober and you will still be ugly. Note this was pulled from memory. But you surely can look it up on the net.
@obrbob194 Thank you.
@@1stFlyingeagle Good one going to have to remember that one
Great video, but I hate you for ending it like that. LOL
Same here but without the LOL.
This is the kind of suspense I want in my life
Stumbled on to this video, so glad i watched it, you two are fun to watch banter back and forth. now i am invested in this generator fix, now to find the second video.
To the narrator ... telling a man he has thinning hair is like telling a woman she has cellulite, a fat butt, and a flat chest all at once.
I disagree any negative comments of someone you love is horrible did you see the reaction on your husband's face it wasn't a smile was it I'm sure if the tables were turned and you were doing a video and he told you your hair was thinning you would not be happy please be respectful.
Austin0777 some guys like that as well.

If its a 4 stroke engine and you have air coming out of the carb, you have a leaking intake valve or the exhaust valve isn't opening.
Alot of newer little 4 stroke engines have plastic cam shafts. When they get hot the exhaust lobe wears down. And, the exhaust valve won't open.
During hurricane Ike, for two weeks, I fixed hundreds of generators - free for people while my motorcycle shop wasn't able to do business.
I got to where I could fix them or at least tell you what was wrong in 10 minutes or less.
1. Make sure fuel gets to the carb.
2. Squirt a little gas in the carb and see if it runs a few seconds. If it does, you have a fuel starvation problem.
3.Take the float bowl off. Make sure fuel flows through the needle and seat.
4. Make sure the float bowl is clean and then spray carb cleaner through the main jet.
5. Put it back together and it usually starts. If not, and it still runs when you squirt gas in the carb it's usually not getting enough fuel. If the spark plug is dry, it's not.
Sometimes, you can't adjust the mixture. They're set to run too lean when you get them.
There are different ways to get to the adjuster screws. But, you need to open at least one of them up.
If you're sure you have fuel and it runs a few seconds and dies, put a spark checker on the plug wire and try it again. if it runs and stops, watch to see if the spark goes out when it's dying. This happens when you have a bad coil or condenser. Or, the oil level goes down enough for the low oil sensor to kill the electricity when the engine cranks.
If its NOT a fuel problem.
1. Check the spark with a tester. Put another known good plug in so you'll know it's not a bad plug. It's rare that it is a bad plug. Fouled, yes. Bad, rarely.
If you have spark, and fuel, and it still won't run, take the valve cover off and check the valves.
Alot of Chinese OHV engines have guide plates for the pushrods. They don't deburr the edges of them. So, they often cut the pushrods in two.
They also don't tighten the lock nuts on the valves alot of times.
The nuts allow the adjusters to back off. Sometimes, they'll run ok idling. But, when they rev up will spit and backfire.
Adjust the valves and put the valve cover back on. They always run after this.
Sometimes, you can patch a cut pushrod by slipping both parts into a piece of telescopic antenna material that fits the outside of the pushrods. Cut it the same length as the distance between the balls on the ends of the pushrods.
This isn't the right way to fix them. But, it'll get you through a hurricane.
Deburr the edge of the guide plate. In spite of it being a stop gap emergency fix, I've never had to go back and replace the pushrods because the engine wouldn't run.
Some carbs have a fuel cutoff solenoid on the main jet that hangs below the float bowl.
It should click when you turn the key on. These are on bigger engines with electric start.
You can also check for continuity with an ohm meter. It should have no resistance between the terminal the wire hooks to and ground. If its open, the solenoid is bad.
Before you have a compression release, you have to have a pretty large generator. Or, a diesel one.
Out of 300 generators, I didn't see one on any generator you started with a pull rope.
You can also check the compression when you have the plug out. You can use the thumb over the hole approach, or a gauge if you're really cool. If it blows your thumb away with a pull of the rope, you really don't need the gauge.
You need three things for an engine to run.
1. Fire (spark. enough and at the right time)
2. Fuel. More when it's cold. Less when it warms up.
3. Compression.
Pull the rope to see if it's got compression.
If it has compression.
Do this.
Have a neighborhood kid hold the plug wire in one hand and put the other on a good grounded part of the engine.
Pull hell out of the rope.
If he yells and wets his pants, you have good spark.
Look at the plug. If is dry and you've done the other two tests, you have a fuel problem.
If so, and this were a batch (.bat) file, the next line would be something like:
GOTO 1
Anyway, like I said, I have a motorcycle shop in Beaumont Texas. Where, it just got through flooding... In fact, it's still wet everywhere. A lot of us don't have homes any more. My shop survived the water.
But, my home didn't.
So, I don't really have time to be goofing off on RUclips.
But, I'm hoping this may help people fix their own generators (or any 4 stroke engine) in the event of any kind of emergency in the future.
If this works for you, let me know.
I get a warm and fuzzy feeling from doing things that help people.
And, generators are way too simple.
Sometimes, you can't get them to flow enough fuel through the crappy little carbs no matter what. But, what I wrote here will get 99% of them going again.
I may make a video about what to do once you get them running, and discover they won't make electricity.
One thing at a time though.
Good luck.

Hey man, you're a true 'Merican Hero. If you don't have a flag tatoo yet, go get one. If you got one already, get one on the other arm!
Sincerely....thanks for taking the time and may God Bless you for a speedy recovery from the flooding.
I.C. Sezdablindman I just happened to see the Jennies garage video about the $25.00 Generator and went through the comments section and believe me when I say this you are without any shadow of a doubt a 100% true American and we should all practice the same as you. Thank you so much for all the great information. May God bless you. Thank you and have GREAT & WONDERFUL LIFE. jmarent@att.net
I also wish to thank Jennies gararge for taking the time to share their experiences with us.

Nice down and dirty diagnostic write up. Sorry for your loss. I made a relief run with my Jeep Club to Vidor last Saturday and it is a mess down there. Good luck getting things back on track. The club is already preparing for another relief trip sometime next week depending on where Irma hits.
Apparently Irma is pissed that Harvey wandered off drunk and cruised the coast and now she is pissed and out looking for his sorry ass. :)
this is the video i started on and having seen your video in early 17 about your troubles with the stock market its so nice to check out your views and see your on a real parabolic curve for your last 8 or so! nearly a million here, awesome!!
I hope you get millions of subs... I love your real humble honest family just doing your thing.
Plus, I love your videos and attitude!
LOL, your wife should do more narration. Ha ha ha.
I'll pass along the message.
If that's thinning hair, then I am completely bald. Which I'm not. You should tell her she's really getting fat, see what happens.
pearlmax NO! NO! THAT'S A BAD PEARLMAX! NO!
I thought it was a prisoner speaking

I think the piston pullback spring is worn out, fix that and grease the muffler bearing, it should start right up!
oh yes of course the muffler bearing
commonconservative do you know if these small engines use blinker fluid? My lawn mower had the same problem and I just replaced the blinker fluid and it fired right up.
what the heck is blinked fluid?
its a bad joke
Muffler bearing is fine. Exhaust belt is worn.
This series was so entertaining! Thank you!
I like how you go through it step by step and start with the simplest problem working your way down to the worst possible issue the genny might have.
"off with its HEAD!", ... "Memory eraser" Thanks for improving my mood... Now I want to go and fix some stuff, you're contagious!
i feel the same, he is contagious, what a great word in this context
you guys are hilarious and I love the real process of elimination you worked through. So many of us average joe's have projects like that generator on our hands. Any stall in the process of elimination often derails the whole project. I applaud your determination.
i just realised ive watched a tonne of your videos and never subbed??? you have realy opened up man love seening people flourish, its a beautiful thang.
You know, I've had a pleasant evening watching your vids. Time well spent....
Great video. I dont want to controle how you run your channel but I think you should go looking for broken items like that, get them for cheep and fix them up.it is very entertaining.

Sounds like the people have spoken. Chop chop man!! 😀
I like that you saw the possibilities and didnt mind the challenge. Man I'd give you anything to fix. you're GREAT!!!!!
Just had to subscribe after watching your videos on this project! You dude rock!
When do we get the second video?
Just like an onion. Tear down through all the stinky layers until there's nothing left but tears.
I don't even have a generator that needs fixing. I just got hooked in by the interesting dialogue. You two are a dynamic duo that make me laugh. You got yourself another subscriber. Great video, keep it up!
I’ve watched a couple of your videos, enjoyed the educational content as well as the humorous banter between you & your wife.
You may have no idea how lucky you are that your wife has a sense of humor & supports your hobbies & fascination with engines & tinkering, a relationship to envy, for sure, most men are not that fortunate.
You are lucky 🍀 &
Blessed my friend!
It's cool bro I'm barely 30 and my hair is thinning too, this video has kept me intrigued since the start... Pretty great stuff!
Bro, I am 18 and I am already thinning.
@@edmundszalitis only means you'll get to save thousands on haircuts go get some clippers man!
@@tonyfffuuu Hahahaha, true on that :D
I don't think the pull cord is wrong because "boy" was pulling the same rotation as when he hand spun it, plus the vanes on the flywheel are situated correctly, spinning it in a clockwise rotation. I wish his arm wasn't covering up the lifter as boy was pulling it over to see if they raised and lowered correctly.
Great video, interesting stuff. Love the banter between you and the wife.
Kudos to you my friend. That was a very enjoyable saga.
You have a bad camshaft. the compression release mechanism is faulty which is the reason for compression in reverse rotation. And please spend $3 and put a new plug in it upon reassembly.
Agreed, either a bad cam or valves need adjusting.
Its the cam. I know because I have had the same problem with a predator generator ( 420cc 6500 watt ) not an easy fix but not to expensive either.
Polo Buk there is a decompression fly weight that holds the valves slightly open so it's easier to pull over, unlikely to be the fault tho as it would normally fire with the valves lifted.
John Pilagonia i believe, the rest of you made me laugh. Muffler bearing........
Polo Buk
I think the inlet valve is not opening which would explain why no compression in the normal direction as no air would be entering cylinder through inlet valve. But in reverse direction air would be entering the cylinder through the exhaust valve.
I would change the headlight fluid while I was in there as well.
its a sealed lamp, and the fluid is eternal. FFS u dont know fuck all
@Mariah Kelli didn't you get the memo?
@@ChuckyLad You need to pull the muffler bearing to the side to access the headlamp fill hole. Lighten up my man, you all need some humor now and again.
@Topanga Reyna How can you be so fucking naive and still breathe. WTF I know it was a joke. So was what I wrote you sorry fucktard idiot that is not capable of reading anything properly and just throw shit like a little baby
@@bff1316 are you stupid? Did you read what I wrote? Lighten up indeed. Wise up
Great little project. Looking forward to the discover of the real issue... loving your wife's commentary... she really keeps things....well... in perspective...
This is a good video. The couple is charming and engaging. I was entertained and I actually feel like I learned something. Kudos...
Finally, the wife talks...and she's hillarious!
She's kinda rude
Not all spark plugs have "continuity". A lot of spark plugs have an internal resistor to reduce electromagnetic interference. Set your meter to kOhms and try again.
Came here to say just this. He does mention this may be the case later on.
Didn't he say that?
first video of yours i watched, i dig your channel. good work guys!
this was the first video of yours that youtube recommended me about a year and a half, close to two years ago.
for once their algorithm actually did its job as at the time, I had just found channels like AvE's [which by the jargon used in your later vids I see you two are fans of as well] & was fully addicted to both his channel and yours, for whatever reason even though I subbed immediately as-well as slapped the shit up out of that notification bell. stopped getting your videos in my feed and had forgotten about your channel until last night, when again, google finally did their goddamn job via showing your videos on my feed, again.
your videos teach me so much about engines and mechanics, something I've ALWAYS been interested in learning since I was a 6 year old boy & continued to yearn for learning more about, until I started working on machines that didn't work! ;)
funny how that works, eh?!! lmfao
in all seriousness, thank you jennie for teaching me more than I'd ever learned about machines in engines in a handful of your videos than I had ever in any of my time in school, pre dropping out.
don't worry, soon going back to get a G.E.D but in the mean time, I've filled my brain with all kinds of interesting and useful information. everything to physics & quantum physics to guns to airplanes to nuclear reactors and now again, back to engines! LOL
just wanted to thank you [again] for helping educate a troubled young adult of the age of no less than 19 years (old enough to drink and smoke le weed here in canadurrp) & doing so in such a interesting as well as in an easily digestible way!!! you sir, even though I don't believe in god/jesus, are a godsend!! [figuratively speaking roflmao]
It's a left-hand engine.
“Try again please” 😂😂😂😂 must be his wife 😂😂😂😂😂🤷🏻♂️
I learned more about engines from you in one video than 52 years have taught me. Wtg!
Nice repair job. Awesome fitting of alternative rings Great job
This guy should tell bed time stories
It was probably a rental item that they retired
That would make a lot of sense.
Still pretty raw of them, in my opinion, for selling an item they assumed was completely broken for $100. If you're a professional and you don't think it's worth salvaging why would you pawn something like that off on your customers???
Jesse Crandle they have too much money to waste time on fixing stuff. And why would they? If its a rental, it has to be 100% reliable so they usually retire equipment early. And thank God they do sell cheap worn out cap for next to nothing so a guy like me can buy it, fix it, and have it for a steal. Sometimes I stop by home depot or lowes just to check if they have anything like this.
You are probably thinking Home Depot Lowe's doesn't rent at least not in any of the 6 stores i know
Was a manager there for 10 years. Most of the time it comes down to what that company tells them to do. During tornadoes of 2011 we had tons of generators returned after people used them for the 30 to 90 day return policy. Just like some buy air conditioners to use for the hottest period then return it to get money back just to do the same with a heater.
Wil Hansen the tag says how much it was sold for and that it was a return lol. Also lowes doesn't do rentals...
Really good video you speak to the audience and explain things very well
I love the puns you two!! "Your hair is thinning" Hair we go with that joke
Was the pull start wrapped around the wrong direction 😂
My first thought when he had compression in "reverse" - the cord snapped off at the pulley and the previous owner reattached it and wound it backwards.
harrygibus wouldn't that cause the spark plug to misfire?
I don't know how the ignition system would handle the crankshaft spinning in reverse - but the valves will be out of order, exhaust sucking and intake blowing. At 13:05 the start cord handle is visible running out the left side of the pulley - common sense would say the cord goes down around the pulley (you pull the cord up since you usually stand above it) so it would be wound to turn the crank clockwise when it's pulled. At 15:05 he gets compression turning the crank counter-clockwise, so maybe the cord is meant to go over the pulley.
Matthew Mck this here was my thinking also!)
I'm obviously not fully familiar with the device in this particular generator, but all of the records that I've seen, if you were to wind the cord the wrong way and pull it would not engage the mechanism at all. So it'd be pretty evident if it were wound the wrong way since the cord would come out with essentially zero resistance and maybe an annoying ratcheting sound.
Can't test a resistor spark plug with continuity setting
Joe Shearer+Please school me, How do you test a resistor spark plug? In fact, how do test any spark plug? I just realized there is a real gap in my spark plug knowledge( pun intended but the question is serious ). Thank you.
Damn, YT just recommended this to me, brings back memories, this was the first of your videos I saw. Still no idea why I watched this, but never been mad that I did lol.
As someone who has an absolute minimal understanding of the combustion engine, I found this video fascinating. Thanks for sharing!
Omg I cannot wait for the next video
Piston return springs, muffler bearings or the flux capacitor . Goodluck
Very entertaining. Quite resourceful in sourcing an alternative set of piston rings. Followed the other videos on this project and was patiently awaiting the end result. Am now watching the Big Box stores clearance items for a similar deal as I could use one of these for myself.
You, are a frigging genius. The fact that you got this thing running in another video amazes me.
"WOW YOUR HAIR IS REALLY THINNING". THANKS HON,DID YOU PUT ON SOME WEIGHT?
ahahahahaaaaa
Nerdygirl Wow calm down a bit
Nerdygirl Lol we can see why you are single 😂
lighten up nerdy girl
Nerdygirl Guessing you're left behind? There's probably a reason 🤣
I think you've got yourself an absolute bargain! Pretty sure when you put it back together the right way around it'll be fine!
It should be ok either way. The parts have to be worth something even if I can't get it going. I would really like to have the satisfaction of hearing it run though.
Jennies Garage did you ever get it running what was the problem......
the raw materials are probably worth more...
I'd say that either the starter cord is wound wrong or the valve timing is out. Are we sure there is no decompressor?
Spiritus u
U definitely got some good knowledge about how pump works👍 thanks for this video
I don't know how I got to this video and I also don't know anything about machines, but this guy!
This guy is charismatic and smooth.
Who else misses the PW series?
I'm hoping to get into something soon that might ease your withdrawls
Jennies Garage thanks pal
predicting that he just needs a new sparkplug
K (
You guys have a great sense of humor. I don't even own a generator or plan on getting one but for some reason I just kept watching. Maybe I thought: one more balding comment and he's gonna snap. but anyways, you make this stuff interesting and inspiring, thanks.
Great job, impressive craftmanship, good Ole American can do, roll up your sleeves and get it done. Well done my friend.....thumbs up....looking forward to your next project
can I donate a bike to you to wrench on? We need more bike videos and I feel you are close to my neck of the woods!
what if I told you the issue is not a lack of bikes to work on?
hahah
... what if he told you he has a bike you've always wanted? ; D Can't wait to find out what the issue with the generac is... For such a newish genset, I did not like how carboned up it was under the valve cover... PLUS it being wildly overfilled points to someone messing around with NO idea what they were doing. Could the rings be carboned up and stuck? It's about the only thing that makes even a little sense to me!
MISTERComaToes that's from running ethanol gas in it...and not 100%gas like you should in small engines
It was probably a rental not a returned item
Lowes doesn't rent tools
Wow you attracted so many know it all and opinion generators. I think it was a great video and your thought process was sound. Nice job
you guys are awesome together
You should use something to keep your hair in.
I suggest a box.
I love the way a female mind works all that work and she says your hair is thinning LoL! Awesome video Bro! Thumb's up~John
Check for a sheared flywheel key
I love the Napkin blowing great effect keep up the good work
Love the videos, hey if your ever in a jam and need to remove oil you can always stick a spray nozzle from a bottle in there and spray the oil out. Cool trick
Hii Jennies
i don't get you at 11:33 at all.
why there should be air gushing out at spark plug hole (after u removed the spark plug) ? it is good side of it having compression right ?
correct me if i am wrong or mis understood.. i wish to learn as well.
thanks.
truly
andrew
its not coming from the sparkplug hole. its coming from the crank case breather.
there should be air coming out the spark plug hole with it removed because when you pull the cord and turn the engine over youre bringing the piston up, compressing the air fuel mix in the cylinder, the fact that he can hold his finger over the hole and the air pressure goes elsewhere instead of pushing his finger away indicates a big loss of compression
short explanation at 3am tired as hell on a random video lol
Test....dont guess......you tested the spark plug, but never tested compression.
Jethrobodine75 he did test compression
In a generation of "throw-it-away-buy-another-one" consumers and buyers, this is a refreshing video. I am a proponent of exhausting all of my options trying to fix something before I replace it. Thanks, and keep up the good work.
I just found your chanel. I like the content and you seem like a great dude
@kcotte59 I'm guilty too lol!
Where is the next video? Its been 4 days.
The pull cord is wound the wrong way? Lol
Great video. You got me hooked man!
Best video i've seen today...and i mean excellent job buddy. I wish schools taught "small engines" class like when i was in school back in 82....VERY educational for kids to start them out right! first time viewer...SUBSCRIBED
Possibily the spark plug or the Flux Capacitor.
Could be the headlight fluid
ruclips.net/video/Vtz99DB7uqM/видео.html
He needs to re-keneuter the dioptic flange valve.
You just fouled the plug by pouring gas on it.
Use starter fluid.
TheHologr4m seriously lmao
real genius here lol
My dad used unleaded on my atv spark plug and it was fine
Not charcoal starter fluid - spray starting fluid (ether). I see several good suggestions.
@TheHologr4m .. 🤔. My 1st thought. Hmmmm
I found this accidentally and just watched the Whole Thang. I know nothing about engines but this was SOoo well paced, commonsensically mansplained, and comic, I SUBSCRIBED! I'll watch MORE. U R FUN. (Btw, you really DIDN't mansplain, you just SPLAINED in a good clear way. I could LEARN from you!)
Great Video Brother !

“It takes special character to bring the device (in this state) back to the store for refund”

Yeah that was me who bought it back .I wasn't very good I only got a small hole in trump's wall
Pouring fuel on the spark plug -shorts it out- (insulates it?) between the electrode and it's casing which is similar to "flooding" an engine. Those engines do have an auto de-compressor - looks like a standard Honda-like engine.
Ryan Farnay I cringed when he done that lool
You weren't the only one.
Gasoline will NOT short out a plug; it's totally non-conductive. Flooding an engine doesn't short the plug, it just gives a mixture that is too "rich" to burn. I've used that trick for about 40 years now and it is a great way to do a quick check if you're not sure fuel is getting to the engine. The amount of gas a plug will hold will usually give 2 or 3 "pops", enough to assure you that compression and spark are good.
Looks like a Honda EU2000i. Extremely reliable generator, I have one in the garage.
Interesting, from my own experience I have seen fuel-wet plugs refuse to work at all until dried - perhaps I have different fuel additives in my area? In hindsight though you would think that petroleum derivatives would actually insulate seeing as paraffin wax has been used in that way. Also I failed to mention that I thought wet plugs were only a factor to a flooded engine, not the only reason (:
I love you videos, your professional, yet unapologetic, and unafraid to take chances. As a mechanic myself we sometimes forget how valuable are skill is! Very few people can do that or even try. Yet for some reason we sometimes get labeled as lesser than. I find this work very satisfying on many levels and I'm sure you do too! You come across as a solid dude and I am glad to see your family doing well!
Probably throughout history, there have always been certain skill sets that are revered, and others that are seen as lowly. I don't judge people for who they idolize, but if the world is coming to an end, I'd rather surround myself with farmers, carpenters and mechanics, than ceo's, professors, and tv stars.
3:19 Thanks for that riveting insight voice from beyond.
Should of checked valve clearance before doing anything to it
*Should've
Should HAVE, not "of." Sheesh.
tripjet999 IKR?
simi , exactly!, But this guy doesn't understand what the valves are for.
SMH! Gas on the spark plug are you serious you're basically just flooded your spark plug...
@J G is this is English?
Love the support from the wife! Great video!
Very fun to watch. Keep it up
says no comprression... TRIES TO START IT WITHOUT COMPRESSION... smart....
the engine was flooded in the past with gasoline and that's why the oil level is so high. when that happens usually washes all the oil off the cylinder walls which will cause zero or low compression. I would change the oil put in a new spark plug and spray WD-40 in the cylinder and I'll bet you it will run
for older motors carbon is a good thing as it increases compression. removing a vast amount at once will generally make a engine loose compression if im not mistaken. My bet is that the starter puller was incorrectly put on as others stated. Its pullin in the wrong direction which vents through the crank. Grab a new spark plug and try reversing the puller and it may just fire up with a bit of luck. It had a tiny spark in the beginning as the fly wheel back lashed a tiny bit going to correct way causing the tiny spark.
I would disagree. If the oil level were that high because of gasoline, he probably would've noted the smell and the oil would've been much thinner than it was. Plus you can see an oil film stuck in the cylinder cross hatch. It is a problem with the cam. Either a wiped cam lobe or a broken camshaft. Also, the direction of the flywheel will have no bearing on the strength of the spark. The coil doesn't care which direction the magnetic field passes by it.
Afraid not...
I agree with Doyle Smith the rings are dry
16:27 You can pretty clearly see an oil film in the cross hatch from that crappy oil.
I can't believe that woman stands there holding your camera like that for so long, & with such a great attitude. SHE'S A KEEPER!
I would love to personally learn from you you are such an idol keep up the good funny work
Pull cord on wrong way! Or recoil spring
Harry jnr nah it's a stuck hooter valve. Next to the competence tester.
nope. its definitely blinker fluid that is missing. i once farted in the small pipe it instantly start running
My friend you have a valve problem, next time spin engine until one valve is full down and check the other valve to have a slight hand movement and then check the other one , i bet $23.70 that one valve it is too tight and it keeps one valve allways open this is youre problem 😏
23.70 well spent hu?
that is what i what i thaught when he first pulled the cord
Congratulations on 100k
