Great video 👍🏼. Check the large heat shield gasket between carb and engine that it is in the correct orientation. You might have it on backwards comparing with my pressure washer with Honda GCV190 engine. Also don’t run the pump idle without pulling the trigger for more than a minute or so. The pump can easily overheat and cause pump damage.

Good job on the repair ! Bad idea to leave your saw running on high idle with your brake on . Burning your clutch .

Chains way to tight man

Thanks for making this video

Doctor Ray, performing surgery while removing and installing a carburetor! What a royal PITA! This is one of those tough ones where I’ll be wearing a hat with a clip-mounted inspection light to see what the heck I’m doing. If there’s an easier method by removing more parts I’ll definitely go that route! 🔧👍 I’ve got long and short forceps so I’m ready when I finally get on this one.

Rather than lifting the bar while tightening the bar nuts I usually tilt the saw forward onto the bench. Just seems easier for me because you already need to hang onto the saw while tightening the nuts. This is especially useful for really small or light saws.

I could smell that red cedar from here! I’d have a hard time cutting up such a beautiful piece of potential lumber! Love that smell!

I suspect one of the orifices in the carb still had some varnish partially blocking so it wasn’t priming well at the beginning. Eventually when you really got some oomph behind it and resorted to pulling off the bench it was enough to finally get fuel through to start dissolving the varnish. Or maybe just a tiny bit of fines that needed an extra amount of compression to blow through. Great saw, either way!

It never occurred to me to use a bent pick like that to clean the debris from a chainsaw. It does seem pretty effective and efficient because you can get into all the crevices with the point but also clear some of the flat surfaces with the side of the bend. I’ll definitely be trying that next! I have two paint brushes for cleaning saws - one is narrower and stiffer than the other so I have options depending on what I need. I drilled holes in both handles large enough to easily hang them on a hook to the right of the bench.

I just discovered by accident that this type of purge bulb releases completely by only prying out the locking tab on one side. It then tilts enough that the tab on the other side clears and the bulb comes right out. Who knew? 🔧😉

Thank you! Exactly my situation. And the little amount of dirt that caused the slowness was incredible. Now it's back to normal.

Hey, Ray! I've got one of those! It was a donor along with a Shindaiwa from a baking customer. It's one of the ones I plan to keep for myself rather than flip if it turns out to be as great as I suspect. Will this be the impetus to clean it up, tear it down and do a full service so I can see for myself how great it is? Sure, after a gazillion other things I have to do, like the Shindaiwa, an Husqvarna, 2-3 Stihls, , pending customer work... The list is soooo long! ;-) Never enough time (or energy, at 77!). :) I'll watch this video later today and get back to you, of course! ;-)

Happy Sunday a great chainsaw I like echo chainsaw there nice and lite I hope it will work out fine and u can get it running. I am looking for some projects saw let me know if you have any or no of anyone who has one

Thank you for the video! I almost bought a new faucet. I watched your video and gave me hope. I ended up removing the little plastic aerator and the water pressure is much better now.

Thanks Ray. Your vid was extremely helpful.

Take the battery right out, tape the cable ends up and fire it up. It will run and create power all day long with no battery in it.

Ray Do you have the specs on the struts ?

Nice job!!!!!

You’re correct that it only starts the unit. These units makes a high voltage non dedicated frequency rotor/stator power head because the inverter does it all. Battery start is nice when it works. Extra hardware is always good to have. Love the tywrap tip!!!! Thanks!

Thanks for posting this. Very helpful. My light wouldn't illuminate until I jumpered the hot from the battery to the glow plug bar. It started my RTV X900 easily after doing that. You saved me a ton of troubleshooting time. Now I know to check the switch. Many thanks!

I just got mine in today after watching this video I'm excited about some of the modes this tester can do

Your videos are amazing. I really like it. I am a new subscriber to your channel. Can I talk with you Ray Of All Trades?

They should come with a hour meter 😊😊😊. Would save a lot of engines every year

I don’t use my generator very much at all either. I would like to convert it to a dewalt battery for starting only. I always have them and they are always changed

Rein Ciarfella finally achieves KZbin stardom! 😂 Honestly, I’m just glad I can add my useful two cents once in a while, I’ve gotten SO much from great KZbin creators over the past few years. 😉🔧👍

Great tip on the for the tie rein

Happy Saturday great video I learned a great tip and thanks for the information on your video and ur work on those small engines

Did you already know that battery hack?

Hey, Ray! Non-serviceable just means they want your money. ;-) I suspect at the factory they use an X-Acto knife to cut the bond and separate the two halves. That's the only thing that makes sense, unless they use a more sophisticated method of dissolving the adhesive, which is possibly CYA but may very well be something else. I would have used electronic cleaner on both sides of the board and the battery, or just alcohol on a Q-tip, because oils from your hands may mess up the circuitry eventually. On resealing, I probably would have used a tiny drop of CYA on each end and then hotglue all around. Glad you were successful at replacing the battery and it worked!

Have you changed the batteries in your non-serviceable peltor earbuds? Did it work?

Question, what if the battery is just being drained from using the atv. I can charge it and it will crank the next day fine. I just use it hunting so after a couple days of riding it in and out of the woods twice a day it gets drained. I can still pull start crank it and it will run but just won't have any lights.

Absolutely helped me! Thank you for the video!

You would most likely call it a vibration dampening rubber mount

You are the best…. Saved me a ton of time and mistakes

I have a question. I have a generator with the same engine. But when I started up it revs up higher than 3,600 and then settles down to the proper RPM. It seems like whenever I put a load on the generator it revs up but the governor does not bring it back to proper RPM very quickly. Do you have any advice? I really enjoyed the video
