@@jorgehetnandez1696 You may find the needle is leaking in the carburetor? Clean up inside and double check :) either that or you’re not following the correct starting procedure? Could be a stiff metering diaphragm too, they can put more pressure on the lever. Have a look inside the carburetor is my advise :)

There is a wealth of knowledge out there. The majority of people do not take the time to listen and learn from others. Instead many chose ignorance and are proud of it. Some f what I learned is from experience and making errors everything else I learned from those who know more than I do. I don't like sports that much - never did - I much like knowledge and learning

@@VintageEngineRepairs I have no formal training, just what I’ve figured out on my own and what I’ve learned from watching videos. I’ve worked on these machines quite a bit over the past 30 years with mostly good results. After watching your video, it made me want to learn more about these little carburetors and it reignited my interest in working on these little machines. Where do you find kits that have the welch plug and brass check valve in them? Every kit I’ve ever seen only has gaskets, diaphragms, and the needle parts. Thanks again!

@@VintageEngineRepairs - well I have succeeded - it has a v cheap brand new OEM C1Q-S68G carb that I got from eBay for £13. I have stripped it down a couple of times before I watched your video, but not all the way. So took everything off and re-cleaned with carb cleaner and compressed air. The only think I spotted that might have been a problem was that the inlet control lever was hardly moving the inlet needle at all - much less than on another old carb I compared it to. So I bent the needle end of the lever (with the fork) up by about 0.5mm so that it was clearly moving up. Put it all back together and....nothing. Guess why? I forgot to reset the H & L needles. Once I did that it started easily and is running v well - just got to adjust the tickover as that's not quite right at the moment. So my top tip is - don't forget to reset the H & L needles after a carb teardown!! The only other problem I had was working out which way to put the metering diaphram back in - in addition to the screw holes it has 2 other holes at one end and I really couldn't see if it mattered which way to put ot back - so I guessed! Thanks again.

When I install a new screen that comes in the kit, I use the eraser on the end of a pencil , it is super close to the size of the hole and the eraser material will hold the screen from sliding around so you can precisely push it in the hole squarely. Once again Great job !

Im from the states and I enjoy your vids. I have a small engine shop and ive been working on small engines along time! I work on stihl mainly. But i do understand the need to clean and rebuild carbs vs new amazon or oem. Ive had so many come back after putting on an Amazon carb i just stopped ordering them and just buy oem. I go thru the process of cleaning each like you. 4 stroke carburetors are somewhat easy, but the stihl 2 stroke carbs are some of the worst ive worked on. Check valves and the high speed actuators on most are my problem. Fs90 carbs can be brought back to life and Some you just cant save. Carb spray in any carb but stihl seems to work fine. I remember the first stihl carb i cleaned with carb spray and after all that work it was worse than it originally was. I use a lot of little squeeze bottles too! Make my own solvents and lubes. Work better than most store bought. Its nice that there are some people who actually try to get something to work rather than be a part swapper, which i hate and hate 90% of these videos online. Anyone can change a part, but it takes a real mechanic to go into something and diagnose, clean, repair and rebuild what they are working on and it works correctly!

Wow! This is so helpful. Rich, genuine information covering what's been a "black box" for many of us. Thank you! Before: problems were poorly handled using the "shotgun" parts replacement technique. NOW: Test and understand root cause, target the actual problems, repair/replace bare minimum & maintain OEM integrity - resulting in faster, better, more reliable repairs. I've got old carbs that don't work - turns out I have been blowing out main nozzle check valves! Anybody know where to get replacement main nozzles?

Very informative, this will be so much help to anyone with a 2 stroke . Concludes my theory that why are they still putting carbs on when a basic injection system would be far more reliable and simple to manufacture??? This goes for lawn mowers, stone saws , chainsaws etc . I’m aware that certain manufacturers have started using injection and from what I’ve seen they still can’t get it right , which suggests to me lack of talent in the design department or the dreaded ‘account says no ‘ . Saving pennies to inevitability ruin a feasible concept!! Thanks for the content, I will now attempt to rectify running issues with some of our engines 👍😇🇬🇧.

Great Video & excellent camera work, especially the close-ups. I did watch a video from the Walbro company and they mentioned that ethanol fuels can eat away the polish around Welsh plugs and check valves so I am not sure what the answer is here if they are leaking. I look forward to seeing other videos now that I have subscribed and hit the bell for notifications.😁

Thanks for sharing! Yes it can remove it over time. Welch plugs don’t really need sealant on them, the manuals don’t recommend anything now days because of alcohol. The aluminium seals very well :) I use it because we don’t have ethanol, but I’d happily use no sealer!

If I can add one bit of advice: be gentle with the needle valves. Driving them down hard can damage them or the carburetor. Just screw them in gently. I learned this as a kid when running model airplane engines; I ruined a few needle valves until an older guy explained I was being too heavy handed. Great video! Cheers from Canada

Great information and so very well shared. I just happen to have a Walbro wt717 from an Echo cs 501sx I have been sourcing a kit for today. Any content you may have done or might do in future on that minefield would be most welcome and helpful I am sure.

A clear and explanatory video with very detailed information. Definitely worth checking out. If I may give a tip: Speak a little slower and in particular, try to make the video recording seem a little calmer. So move back and forth less and more quietly with the objects shown in the video.
