yeah fairly sure Xeon E5-2470 v2 10 cores 20 threads is max . quite a upgrade

Just do what I do.....buy a new carb. In the time you do this, you wasted by trying to save a buck.

You sound like Kipp from Napoleon Dynamite!!!🤙🏼😆

Which jet did you drill out? If the engine was surging at idle, you would need to drill out the idle jet that's below the screw.

Should you not have put some grease in the wormgear?

This was a very thorough resurrection job, and well presented. If it sells, the new owners will have found a decent one. I see that a basic 24" Troy Bilt 2 stage sells for $ 999 at our local Home Depot. It has a larger 208cc engine, but still has the plastic, not metal, chute. If someone sees it and really needs it, there should be a nice profit in it.

I have a similar blower branded troybilt. Might be a year or two newer. It has been flawless. I installed an impeller kit immediately. It has been impressive! Just like anything else maintenance is key. The only time mine wouldn't start was when the key wasn't pushed in all the way! Lol my bad

Nice find

Simple maintenance not done. What can go wrong right? Nice easy job👍

I have been resurrecting side of the road/free snowblowers, mowers, weedwhackers, etc for yrs now. Never have I come across one in that pristine condition

Thanks for this video. I have the exact same snowblower. I will know what to do if I have any problems in the future.

bro spray it off with a air hose and use a ultrasonic cleaner

Calling MTD sales: Ring..."Hello." Calling customer service after the part soon breaks: Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring ring...

great video thks

If painting, will it be wise to put an air dryer system on the second tank as air comes out or between both tanks?

Question when second tank fills up will first tank stop pumping from pressure

I'm so glad I found this video. You saved my gcv 160 carb too. Thank you so so much for such a great video, you rock!

U Candy as! suck it up

Every tool has a hammer side... Nice job. Outstanding perseverance! Big thumbs up and new sub!

best vid out there man thank you so much

Thank you for the play by play that I can see and making the video real long. The video is longer than the the carb rebuild. Dumd ass

I cleaned mine on my generator yesterday morning the inside of the carburetor looks pretty good it runs about 300 hours a month in the winter time around 150 hours a month in the summer it's missing a little bit change spark plug didn't help neither did cleaning the carburetor Amazon had another one for $35 I think it's the better way to go takes a lot of time to tear those generators down just to get the carburetor off so now I have to tear it down again

Flat head screw driver and 4pound hammer wd 40 to rotate that pump lock.. way easier and faster

I'm about to do this 😮😮😮

Good presentation. I've found fine steel wool will remove most of the crud from the float bowl.

I use my guitar strings to clean out those holes

Excellent and very thorough video.

You should only use carb. Cleaner for checking that the jets are clean. Using a welding tip cleaner will damage the holes that are very precision sized.😊

Most thorough rebuild video I've seen. Even moreso than DonyBoy73!

Great diagnostic repair video, thanks for sharing, Lots of repair videos on your channel. Are you up for a collaboration? Hipa supplies parts for small engines and maybe we would work together to help more people in the community.

The only pull starts that never fail I found is the old time ones. A rope and pulley to wrap it around. All my lawn stuff is electric start, never had a problem.

There's a fuel filter inside the gas tank on mine, removing it and replacing with an external one is the first thing you should do.

Best Honda carb cleaning video I’ve found so far!!! Thank you!!!

Good job 👏 looks good

Best video for the cgv 160 carb anywhere on the net. Follow this video completely and you motor will run again.

Raise the bed up it's easier

PERFECT VIDEO, IT HELPED ME SO MUCH . THANK YOU.

Thanks for the video, you could have cut a empty plastic gallon for adrain

Get to the point of the video.please

this hitachi/tanaka blower is the original version, has 2 separate grommet holes in gas tank. a newer version came out with a single grommet version, that shares 2 fuel lines inside same grommet. learned from a parts page that the manufacturing change came in summer of 2014. the 2 grommet hole gas tank design was in production up to july 2014. august 2014 started the new single grommet tank design.

There is a diode test position on your digital multimeter. A good diode will show open circuit in one direction and about 0.6 volts in the other direction. Two failure modes are possible in theory. You found one with the 200 Ohm range resistance test...that was a short circuit. I am not certain if a diode would ever fail as an open circuit but if so the diode test function might show that when the resistance test will not.

on the yellow return line, mine is OREGON 07-263, SIZE .080 X .140 , not sure if this is correct size as its probably not OEM hitachi/tanaka fuel line. it fits a little loose in the return tank grommet. ill try this larger size fuel line and see if it tightens up the fit a bit. the existing fuel line causes bubbling and leaking around the grommet. i picked up the blower for free on craigslist 3 years ago, so hard to complain when im just now having problems and need to replace fuel lines, etc.

Great video, Wild Bill, and thank you! I see the model you have has the two different size grommets (one big, one small) on the fuel tank like my RB24EAP. I believe similar ones (or another variant) has a single two-line grommet for the tank. All the replacements I see online have the single two-line grommet, or I see 2-pack aftermarket grommets that look like the small one but there doesn't seem to be the bigger one anywhere to be found. Do you have a source or link for the replacement grommets like the one in your video? Thanks for any help with this!

was just watching your ( clean the carb) Vid and came here while resisting the urge to pull my hair out trying to get the emulsifier tube out of this exact same Carb. I noticed that when yo held the jet up in that last video ( I had removed mine as well) that the hole you were digging into was WAY bigger in that vid than mine here in person. ( I am literally doing this right now by the way ) You had stated someone has already been in that carb. I think that " sombody" already bored that jet, the reason being that mine is tiny even after cleaning, Yours was probably 2x's the size of mine ( I also have the green crud.) <-- What the hell is that? It;s Growing IN GAS! anyway, I have a lot more green crud than you did. it;s even growing on the plastic float in spots. OMG I just got the emulsifier tube out! I was about to order a whole new carb off ebay. Grr, I had to take the Choke flap out ( Shiny one) and run a screw driver thru the carb tub and then with a sht ton of might and both hands force the driver shaft on the top of that emulsifier down it went flat and was STILL STUCK! Grr. I didn't have a pick like you had, I ran a brass wire up thru the middle just barley above the edge of the emulsifier tube lip and then bent it over ( painstakingly ) and then pulled the whole thing out. I am wondering now if the emulsifier holes on yours were also bored out a bit. I wonder because mine are super small like the jet tube hole. They are so small that a Chinese bread tie wire with the paper removed will just barley fit in there. ( I know it;s Chinese, it;s from wal mart twist tie bags. The good ones will not fit at all. LOL I am putting an inline filter in this,it clogs way too easy. I bought a Tecumseh powered troy built recently (pretty sure I wil need it soon ) got the same problems with that, I will check out other vids of yours , Not sure what all you have yet/ These two vids are real good. Thanks from Idaho. :0)

Thanks a lot!!! Great video!! Very informative.

WB, Nice work and a good video! I don't know how old that machine is, but seeing all that metal in the oil makes me wonder: Had the oil ever been changed? I know it's a lite-weight, cheap mower, but watching you mow that strip made me realize that a small, short, lite machine comes in handy for mowing around obstacles like the fire hydrant. (My Honda weight 60+ pounds and is l-o-n-g; not maneuverable like the one in your video.) Again, nice work -- and thanks! Did you end up replacing the clean cover and filter . . . or was it not worth it? (Just curious) Regards, -- Old Matt

I just wet through everything you're doing. Take the bushing out and put on the shaft then install. That bushing does come out

The video is nice but for me it is not worth.

Great video. I’ll be watching to see if you ever get her fixed.
