FIXING OUR DEAD STHIL WHIPPER SNIPPER (BRUSH CUTTER)

[@ClickinChicken]

Croiky mate! Awesome home made video! Good to see you again! Yeah those little Cube carbs are a bugger. You need to put all the plates and gaskets back on the same way they came off. I did this with my Toro 220 snow shovel. Still worked a year after. (then their is the unleaded gas issue for carbs:(). It's like taking a match box car apart if that was possible. BTW John. I use what you taught me all the time in my comments. I'm a bloke from N. Minnesota! Now I have a new one, 'It's Crooked'. Love it! Blessings.

Drive you nuts. Bloody tidly winkin little buggers. John

Tricky two strokes. Glad to see a fellow bush mechanic struggling to fix the devils engine when they play up. Great video and very timely as I'm fighting a MS211 carby problem🥲

G’day John. Talk about trying to repair small engine’s. I started stripping down my F380 (MS380 clone) chainsaw today as I found out that the piston skirt had destroyed itself and went through the head and crank! It’s always something to do around the place. Good fix with the whipper snipper, mate. I had a spark arrester blocked on my little chainsaw and wasn’t aware that it was blocked either, lol. Cheers 🍻

Every time I look at getting any more equipment I now think no it will be something else I will have to maintain. John

[@markandmellwhiteley7995]

pretty snazzy air blower John, good show mate, its made me think l will buy a kit and have a go meself next time instead of paying someone else $200 to do it for me thankyou

[@farminglifeaustralia6716]

If I could have given someone $200 dollars and had it fixed in retrospect I would do that. If I would have had more time and just bought a replacement carb it would have been easy. John

John, sometimes things just don’t go right. It’s always the last thing you do before you throw the thing away.😮 Persistence pays off. Good to see you doing well… John

My sausage fingers and small engines don't go well together. John

[@theoztreecrasher2647]

Quite often with these little Infernal Combustion Engines the fuel lines or pulsation tubes from the crankcase crack and leak or become a loose fit on their spigots. The neoprene ones on Stihl generally last pretty well but the plastic junk on Ryobi etc don't last at all. Those pump bulbs are notorious as are the damned spark screens. (On chainsaws they often get "forgotten" about!) Some of my big saws had a secondary fuel screen in the carby that would eventually block up but mostly it was just the tank filter that needed throwing. I've got an old Jonsered and a cheapy Ryobi here that need attention too. But, with a bit of luck, I'll push off before I get around to it. 😇😱

[@farminglifeaustralia6716]

Blokes who have no idea how small engines work have it made just take it to the shop. Ha Ha. My problem is I can't afford that. What You could do is just leave the Jonsered and Ryobi in the shed and leave them to someone you don't like. A last stuff you from the grave. John

@@farminglifeaustralia6716 LOL! Another Old Fart with my sense of humour! 👍👍 The Quack today was telling me that I should lose some weight. But a good feed is 1 of the few pleasures that I have left. Also I plan to give at least 6 blokes that I know a final good workout! 😜😂😇

We are on a good weather cycle at the moment. The forecast is for a week of fine weather. I think we will be looking for a shower before the fine weather ends. John
