Good info, here’s a man not giving someone half used parts on a rebuild. If this man says it’s rebuilt, it has NEW parts in it! This shows quality of character! This is the type of guy if tells you something, bank on it! I love your work, NO SHORTCUTS!

[@chuckkrell1169]

Great show I love watching

[@chuckkrell1169]

Very informative and well presented. Thankyou

[@whobee7872]

Thank you T Mike! This retired Navy Chief just rebuilt his first carburetor thanks to you and it cost me a 10 dollar kit on Amazon. The carburetor is now reinstalled back on my 1966 Evinrude Angler 5hp 5602C Motor that I picked up for 95 bucks. I really love your video's, please keep them coming.

[@williamdaisey5304]

Same here! Never rebuilt a carb before. Rebuilt my 1957 Johnson 5.5 thanks to the many rewinds of this video

[@markjohnson4053]

This is a very good video, as he walks clearly through each step. Most people are a bit afraid of a carburetor rebuild, especially when they open the pack of new parts and see all the little washers and so forth.

[@DavidComes-hc8gv]

Very instructive

[@marzioapolloni2732]

Greetings from Canada! Thanks for posting this. I needed a hand with my 1962 Johnson 5.5. It was my Dad's (he passed away a year ago). It was in his shed and I thought for his sake and memory I'd get it going again. Carb rebuild is the first job. Going to work my way around to the pump, thermostat, impeller and gears. Your video set me right. Merci!

[@user-wg6yt3ro4t]

I just did my carborator to my Johnson seahorse 7.5 model AD-11. I used your video for instructions. The only difference between your carborator and mine is that mine has a clear bowl on the bottom.

[@scottriegler]

Mike thank you thank you thank you - I will pull it all apart today - thanks for being detailed and so responsive to my request - I live in Texas and will come by and see you one day - thanks Scott

[@josephlabis2422]

Outstanding training video! I have a 1958 Evinrude Fastwin 18 just like the one shown at the beginning of this video. I want to get it running again, and now I believe that I can do it.

[@jonredd650]

Did you?

[@Painter5724]

Hello T Mike, thank you for the great video! I have a 1958 Evinrude 7.5 and thanks to your help, it's now running and ready for the lake! I appreciate you! Jim

[@rickyrishel8198]

Great information. Well spoken step by step instructions. Thank you. Awesome channel

Thank You Sooooo Much for Sharing and Teaching. God Bless T-Mike.

Thanks so much for making these vids. You need to put affiliate links to kits in description so we can buy and you get some money for your efforts.

Great detail, T-Mike! I have '50 7hp Fleetwin.

Thank you so much for making this video 👍

Really like your videos, I have 2 - 4hp ,1 Evinrude 1990 and 1 Johnson 1998 long shaft Sailmaster lovely engine. Just bought a scrap Evinrude 2 HP just attempting to restore it. Have a few problems with siezed bolts though!!! I am in the UK

[@kencleg7721]

Outstanding the low high adjusted post rebuild is what’s I had no clue the 1.5 turn low idle yes but the high 1.3/4 turn outstanding thanks

[@MAB961]

Thanks Mike very helpful 👍

[@scrmn53]

Great vid! Very helpful.

[@eduardoyanez7282]

Hola T-MIKE, veo tus videos de reparaciones y me gustan mucho. Cuanto tengas tiempo has videos sobre los motores Johnson y Evinrude 9.9 y 15 hp (indestructibles), saludos y bendiciones,

[@richrivituso5659]

Great video!!!!

[@JrR-fw5ph]

I have a 1959 7.5 Fleetwin and was just thinking if should change over to single line fuel sys for simplicity. Wasn’t sure if it was possible until you just confirmed my thought. My 12 yo grandson will be using the motor on his 14’ boat…. Thx for the i video. 👍

[@kevinduray1234]

Hi Mike, Thanks for your informative video. I was just rebuilding by carb. on my FD-12 18hp Johnson following your instructions. I realized quickly that the carb looked slightly different than yours and when I took the bowl off, the original needle valve doesn't have a clip on it nor is it supposed to as it doesn't have a groove for the clip. I decided to use the same needle valve and screw since the new one was a bit longer. Then I realized the break out plug is a different size as the kit I bought. Have you run into that before with a slightly different carburetor and would you know the kit number for that one? Thanks so much.

[@MattMohsOutdoors]

You should invest in a ultrasonic cleaner for carbs.

[@tucanman9775]

back in the day a tune up ment points plugs and condensers my sportwin is tuned . Do you find bad coils often ? how about plug wires ?

[@billmcdonough2096]

Hey Mike I love your channel, could you do a video on rebuilding the old style two hose pressurized fuel tank.I have one that needs to be done kind of curious how you go about it and imagine you actually do it a lot. Thanks Bill

[@scottriegler]

Bill I did this a couple weeks ago its not bad to do just be careful and take pics when you take the housing open springs and a watch battery sized metal plate to keep up with but its not bad - T-Mike can make it easy to do

[@FishinOnaMission]

Amazing. I might keep my motor i got a 1967 johnson. Dont know anything about motors

[@michaeldufresne9280]

Hey Mike, thanks for the info. I have a 1958 5 1/2 horse Johnson, and was wondering once you rebuild it how far out that you turn the high and the low mixture screws. Keep the videos coming, I really enjoy the channel. Mike From Bend Oregon..........

Hey T-Mike, I got a 1949 Scott-Atwater 114 and I’m looking to restore it, but I’m having a tuff time finding parts and decals. Not sure if you have some good resources that I could check out

[@michaeljsimon]

[@valvulae]

at 24:20 T-Mike mis-speaks and calls the top jet high speed, but that is low speed and the 1.5 turn is correct for the Low- speed jet adjustment.

[@scottriegler]

Mike what is the oil to fuel mix ratio you recommend for the 57 7.5 ad-11 I get conflicting info because some say the newer oils dont require as much oil - please advise - thank you

[@michaeljsimon]

Here is my rule - if it has a 2 line fuel system 24:1 / single line fuel system 50:1 - they switch to single line in 60s and crankcase upper bearings switched from brass to stainless - stainless required less oil.

[@scottriegler9168]

Perfect thank you

[@pm270100]

got an old 5 an 1/2hp omc 66/68 mod will it run with the leg off what holds the water tube in the exhust houseing

[@michaeljsimon]

Rubber grommets on both ends

[@paularmstrong5572]

Just wondering, but do carbs for 7.5 hp with dual line and glass filter bowl require a wire clip on the float needle? I have two of these carbs and neither one has the wire clip on the needle, nor does the original needle valve have a groove to hold the wire clip. Did these original Type 1 carb needles just work on gravity? The Sierra rebuild kit has the grooved needle and the wire clip. Thanks - great video!

[@michaeljsimon]

Originals work on gravity - no clips.

[@paularmstrong5572]

@@michaeljsimon Wow - thanks for the quick reply. Just one more quick question, but if you were rebuilding this carb would you use the new needle with the clip, or just the needle (might not be heavy enough to work properly on gravity?), or just reuse the old needle? ok, a couple of questions.

[@michaeljsimon]

@@paularmstrong5572 use the new needle with clip.

[@paularmstrong5572]

@@michaeljsimon Thumbs Up!

[@jamesparsley1259]

Just courious. How many times can this cleaner be used before it needs to be replaced? Do you ever have to strain it before reuse? Is it a good idea to do clean up job on the carb before putting it into the cleaner?

[@michaeljsimon]

Been doing this for 6 years - second can.

[@samtate1260]

What do you do when that silver pice comes out with the low speed needle that has happened to me about 3 times now

[@michaeljsimon]

You need to put the holding nut on to keep it from backing out.

[@samtate1260]

I got some of that carburetor cleaner in my eye talk about burning I wear goggles now when I spray that stuff

[@louisvairo7157]

I have a 56 jhonson 7.5 my carn has a glass bowl is this the same carb?

[@jimrudolph1582]

Variation of same carb. T Mike has done a video on manuals from Seloc. Great manual especially fo DIY and beginners as well as pros.

[@DaveB506]

Will this work on a 1956 Evinrude Lightwin 3hp? #3018

[@michaeljsimon]

Yes

[@chriswetrich7918]

What if it has a glass bowl

[@michaeljsimon]

Dipt it

[@jamesdickinson7515]

You keep calling the float seat that float needle sets in the main jet. The main jet is the long brass jet that installs in the main body. Sorry to be picky, but that may confuse some people.

[@michaeljsimon]

I stand corrected.
