HOW TO REBUILD Carburetor on 4-5HP Tecumseh Snowblower Engine Part 3/3

[@Onitrix77]

This is what all how-to videos should be like. Steady camera, clear voice, no excessive rambling about unrelated topics and confident knowledge of the subject. As an added bonus that was the same snowblower I'm trying to fix. Good job and thanks!

[@homestylebaking2051]

Great video my friend. You are very thorough, you have answered all of questions. Thank you very much 👍🏽

[@supersluggo0]

Just wanted to thank you for posting these great videos. I have a 15 year old snow blower with a Tecumseh engine that is now running like new with a rebuild carb and new fuel and primer lines. Awesome!!!

[@darrellmckinneysr]

These are very very good videos. Has helped me fix my 5hp snowblower with Tecumseh engine. I was going to junk it because its 12 years old and wouldn't run correctly. Thanks to you its running like new. Thanks again

[@stewarthanna4419]

THis video is the most concise that I have seen! It gives all the important information to get the carb job done right from unhooking to re hooking including carb adjustments Thank you so much

[@cleberbeteloliveira4589]

Today I'm riding a Tecumseh carburetor finish tomorrow but RJ19LM candles and the AR35066 filter not found here in my town. His videos helped me in the assembly.

[@JodBronson]

Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for the 3 vids. I just got a used one for FREE and it was really helpful to see you take it apart before I do it. First time doing it so seeing this gave me an idea. Although i'm inclined, I still wanted to see before I open it to clean it.

[@johnmauro7145]

Thanks Donny, by reviewing several of your carb rebuild, cleaning and adjustment videos I was able to get my snow blower carb up and running, thanks so much. Big key was to clean it well, all the little holes.

[@pchili4]

Excellent videos, you know Don,your going to end up teaching us everthing you know you'll end up looking for a new line of work LOL ! Hope your wife is feeling better.Again thanks for all your work on thease videos

[@bobjones3846]

Donny boy , LOVE that tool you use . I just got one . I had a gas leak out a little hole by the screw with the rubber over it , So I had to do it twice .

[@647762816]

Get some torch tip cleaner "please". But for the same price you can buy a set of orifice drill bits and really do the same thing as a piece of scrap wire. I really enjoy your training videos.

[@mkhaddon5842]

I'm late to the party, but no less appreciative for the information in your video. Very clear & careful narration and good camera work. With your help, I got my machine purring and easily cleaned-up a foot of fresh snow. Embrace winter!

[@donyboy73]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kitchencone]

To replace some old primer line, I found some rubber 5/32" ID Windshield Washer Tubing at Canadian Tire. It fits well on the primer bulb and the carb fitting. I also realised from these Internet videos that the primer bulb base can just be pried out of the metal cover. No need to remove all the engine head bolts that are holding the cover on! Thanks for the videos, they are VERY informative.

[@1575murray]

I used similar rubber hose someone had bought from an auto parts store. Just cut it with a pair of scissors and it stays on at both ends not like the original which was 40 years old. Mine has the primer bulb on the heater box yours must be the 1980s version that has it on the blower housing.

[@pmmccrea]

Thank you so much for helping me to rebuild my Tecumseh snow blower carb. Your videos are very precise and informative and I had no problem at all following your advise and everything went smoothly. Thanks again and keep up the good work. God bless.

[@dutchhenrybrown]

Ii have to rebuild the same carb on a generator and will get to it in the first thing Wed morning and your video will make it veryvery easy.

[@neilkinney6600]

I have learned a lot from watching your videos and have brought a couple of mowers back to life.Still having trouble with a poulan saw. thanks!

[@paulfur21]

very nice of you to make these videos. I watched quite a few of your videos and made it so much easier to rebuild the carb. The snow blower now starts on first pull. Thank you for making all the videos!

[@donyboy73]

you're welcome

[@superdukedad]

Really appreciate you taking the time to cover the position of the mixture screws once replacing them, watched some other videos hoping to find that info on how many turns out or in worked best for their machine so I could at least have a starting point for mine. Very nice video!

[@donyboy73]

@darinhwerner all the primer does is pump air in the carb. check ur carb adjustment

[@robertflorquist7024]

This video really helped, now I know that there is a gasket that the needle sits on in the seat, when I took my card apart the gasket was gone, ate up by our alcohol infested fuels. Thanks a bunch!

[@donyboy73]

@Dicofole approx 3600 rpm, i adjust with governor

[@1575murray]

This is a very good video. I did this repair on a toro 421 which used the same carburetor. The only thing I did differently is to remove the two screws holding the intake manifold to the engine and pull the whole assembly off as one piece.

[@donyboy73]

@Bubaaak that's right, snowblower don't need an air filter

[@donyboy73]

there are 2 o-rings that go on the emulsion tube, if they are damaged replace them, the tecumseh primer bulbs do not fill with fuel, they only puch air in the carb

[@donyboy73]

@Artlay1 you have to remove the shrouud that holds the recoil to do it properly

[@donyboy73]

@jenstagner the snow can clogg it and there is no dust in winter

[@donyboy73]

@Artlay1 don't need a torque wrench, just tighten it enough

[@galaxyprime6543]

Hey Thanks man for your videos This helps with info very much You must help so many people!! I do this for neighbors and friends but I don't have time to do many videos BUT THANKS FOR THE INFO...Always learn something new from others videos...

[@mrwfws]

I'm impressed! Well presented, good photography, everything shown in detail. Thanks!

[@dimitriosmag5760]

Best video I have seen on cleaning these carberstrators.

[@yogivonfartmeister1975]

Great little series. Thanks for the parts kit numbers. Very helpful.

[@donyboy73]

i put choke to full, a few shots of primer, at least 2-2 et voila, make sure your primer line is good, they do tend to rot near the carb

[@supersluggo0]

@donyboy73 Just watched the carburetor tuning video, I'll adjust the idle tomorrow. It was -10 here today and my hand were getting a bit cold anyway. Now it can snow. I have a snow blower. Cheers, SuperSlug

[@donyboy73]

try pushing the seat in further, if it's in all the way then set the tab on the float

[@donyboy73]

@GarrettJDB yes it's 1/8" and part number 730515a

[@donyboy73]

you're welcome sir, thanks for watching and the nice comment

[@123clis321]

Nicely Done! I have the Crapsman 5/22, almost the same machine.

[@frankbaublit]

I love all your videos. Thanks

[@donyboy73]

usually the kit is #31840 if your carb is adjustable, look on repairclinic dot

[@digitalPimple]

I have a H35 I picked up. It was sitting outside for awhile. After your videos the engine ran mint (points needed cleaning). Then it started loosing power after an hour and the carb would spit and back fire. Adjustments did not do much. I re cleaned the carb but not much help. I pulled the new spark and it was covered with black. Any suggestions? After I cleaned the plug it won't even start now. I was starting with 1-2 pulls.

[@cartee72]

Very cool vid I went back and clean what I missed, the bowl nut screw

[@standolfo]

Thank you Very useful, helped me a lot to service and repair my TVM140 with the 632253 carburetor 👍

[@raymckegney3526]

The float had no liquid in it. Looked great. Everything was clean. Maybe the small white seal is that the pin moves up into is bad or missing? If I don't have the tool to remove or insert a new one, what would you suggest I use?

[@donyboy73]

@supersluggo0 you're welcome and thanks for watching

[@chppper67]

thank you very much for your videos, I find them very helpful. Thanks.

[@tonykari5124]

You are the best danboy. Thanks a lot

[@donyboy73]

@chppper67 thanks for watching

[@donyboy73]

if the plug is wet then it could likely be weak spark, if it's dry then it's a fuel issue

[@donyboy73]

@CARRICK6423 yes i need to get those torch cleaners

[@MariaGonzalez-ei1pv]

Great video man...My choke butterfly is stiff .and also it just sits there with out anything moving it it does have lil holes to install linkages mine don't have linkages unless some one took it off!!,it will start if I spray starter fluid in the air filter..but it won't stay on.. help im trying to keep my tucumseh...

[@capenjck]

I had to rebuild the tecumseh carbb on my Ariens 8526. There was no needle valve seat in it when I took it apart. I didn't put the one from the kit in. The snowblower runs really rough now and I am wondering if the lack of the seat could be the problem.

[@donyboy73]

@rdoggvf722 did u replace the float?

[@todaubin3166]

An oldie but goodie

[@donyboy73]

good job!

[@donyboy73]

@pberglin better performane but material quality getting cheaper

[@andrewbasley6962]

The line seems good, but I'll replace it just to be sure. Could it be something electrical like a weak spark or something even though it runs well after starting?

[@brianpaterson108]

That was excellent. Thanks

[@stlouissux9119]

Great DIY vid dony.

[@donyboy73]

you're welcome

[@donyboy73]

THANKS FOR LETTING ME KNOW

[@donyboy73]

@th19940305 i made two quick videos of it that i will post soon

[@donyboy73]

@Jodbronson thanks for watching

[@conirish2004]

Great video, thanks for posting, lots of detail.

[@shaymaster1]

Great Video this is going to help me out lots

[@Laevatein9521]

I have toro snowthrower 2c ccr 3HP and the only way I can get it to run is by putting fuel in the spark plug socket but it only runs for a few seconds. I cleaned the carburetor good and put it back together, but it still does the same thing. Any thoughts?

[@regislevesque7909]

Great and usefull video. It's save my old 1999 Mastercraft 5hp lawn mower wich use almost the same kind of choke carburator attachment Quick question, What is the use of the small punch in the bowl as we can see at 2:47min?

[@raymckegney3526]

I've got the Toro 5/24 and it's been leaking gas, dripping slowly off the nut on the bottom of the carb. Got a repair kit and replaced the cover and bottom nut seals. Still get gas dripping. As it turns out its not from either seal but from the opening on the carb behind the 2 screws on the side of the cover. Maybe this is the air intake? Not sure. This is my first endeaver into an engine of any kind. Engine starts and runs fine. But the dripping gas is bothersome. Any ideas? Thanks.

[@koolairbrush10]

hello donyboy my mower carb is leaking gas badly I replaced needle/clip/seat o ring,there was no needle clip thats why i tought it was wrong and bought the kit and still doing the same.

[@donyboy73]

you might need a new float

[@limoguy1964]

hey Dony, a little help here.. I was looking to replace the primer bulb on this model. I pried up on the bulb (shown on another vid) and snapped the plastic underside of the bulb off. Now im lloking for the right one..(for lack of better words, it doesnt have the "nubs" to hold the primer on the housing.

[@donyboy73]

go to partstree.com with your model engine number

[@donyboy73]

thank you sir

[@donyboy73]

@Matthew55904 any small engine shop or sears

[@donyboy73]

it's quite possible

[@robertwaid2965]

nice video. not to hard a job to do. where would you get an air filter kit to use a snowblower engine in the summer time??

[@louiecruz9884]

Putting the needle on the clip and then on the float @ 1:36 thanks

[@MexicanViking]

Hi there. I rebuilt my carb and snowblower runs but it only runs when the choke is half open. Dies when I apply a load. Any help is appreciated. Thanks Miguel

[@brianmullen9791]

Great videos I watched from part 1 to part 3 for the rebuild of the Tecumseh carburetor.The engine started to run for a little ,but gas was coming out, of it looks like above the bowl .What did I do wrong?

[@raymckegney3526]

Wasn't the float. As it turns out it was the tiny vent hole near the primer hole had been plugged. Didn't even know it was there, so small. If the carb can't vent as gas enters the bowl, the float can't lift to raise the pin to close off the incoming gas. The gas overflows out from the air intake opening. Took a bread bag twist tie, removed the paper, took the wire and poked it into that tiny hole. The carb no longer leaks gas. The hole may have gotten plugged when wiping down the housing.

[@briwhi]

What model number is that carburetor? I need one and it is the same one you just fixed, but its old and i can't seem to find any numbers other than 1085 cbc but nothing comes up . Any info would help> Thanks.

[@donyboy73]

you may need a new carb kit and a good cleaning of the carb

[@ThePinkPanth3r]

Just a heads up, you can get the float and needle installed with the carb still mounted it just sucks.

[@donyboy73]

the float probably needs to be replace,,

[@andrewbasley6962]

How do I know if it's the coil, points, condenser, etc? Or should I just replace it all? Thanks.

[@cbart6690]

great vid donyboy73. very helpful, i just rebuilt mine and it does start and run but it is backfiring thru the exhaust , is there a way to adjust timing or is it my mixture, had a hard time getting it to run without choke on

[@kyleparanuik8652]

Hi Donyboy73 gotta say first off thanks for sharing your knowledge and sharing your gift with everyone. I have a craftsman tecumseh 5HP that uses 632107 carb and I was wondering if a 632334 carb would work on that engine.? Also the person I picked it up from removed the rubber cover and air mixture screw from the non adjustable carb completely. Would this cause the surging I am experiencing or could it be something else messed up in the carb?

[@JohnnyDesaint]

My lawn mower wont turn over,If i pore a little gas in air filter housing it turns over till the gas burns away.my primer bulb dont seem to work at all either.i replace float,needle and seat. any sudgestions?

[@geo8841]

Hi can I install new pin and new float with carb on mower?

[@SuperJamster1]

5 HP Tecumseh had 120 psi compression, now has decent spark after cleaning the coil contacts on flywheel and reseting coil distance to magnets. Still no ignition, even after spraying starting fluid directly into engine spark plug opening or directly into air intake. Suggestions?

[@Baileygeep7]

I wouldn't recommend doing this, but I had a new replacement float that came with a defective solder seam and after putting it on a low heat stove burner to dry it internally, it resoldered itself, never thought low would get that high.

[@wtsig76]

thanks for the informative video.

[@joshdavis1988]

Hi I have a Hs50 engine and there is boot next to intake manifold. What is that for?

[@Tecknut75]

Nice job! That machine looked ready for the scrapyard. Have you ever cleened the muffler on a 2 stroke? Mine is looking real black I imagine from running to rich/to lean because it bogs down when I engage snow? I was told to soke the muffler in transmission fluid. Thanks for the share.

[@kellycronk9234]

Perry make sure the fuel line fitting on carb is not cracked the white plastic 90* fitting. I was having the same issue and took carb off and then noticed a crack in the plastic fitting. JFYI

[@dynamite8037]

Question? Do you know how well the aftermarket carburetors work on Toro snowblowers? I can get a complete bolt on carburetor for around $15- $20 online depending on manufacturer and my local Toro/Tecumseh dealer wants a little over $20 just for a few parts in the rebuild kit.. my Toro sat for a few years in a storage and the carb walls built up a lot of hard corrosion that looks really time consuming to clean out. Seems logical to just purchase the new ready to go carb for the same price if they work as well as the oem.. thanks for your time and video was great

[@donyboy73]

some are great carburetors, see this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/m53WgWCJpZtlsJY

[@ernieking760]

There was a Tecumseh tool that you used to set the seat. What is that and is there a substitute for that so that I would not need to buy one?

[@jamesbuddy3485]

my bowl nut broke off in to the carb any thing i can do to get it out ????

[@donyboy73]

it will be different then

[@GmGarlo]

i have an extra carb on my lawnmower and it looks the same as my toro carb , could you put it on the toro or not? great videos like always !!

[@kerpp165]

Hey Dony, I'm helping my father rebuild his carb off a 5hp tecumeh snowblower. I think his issue with surging stems from a pitted fuel bowl under the "O" ring area. I viewed your video about pitted fuel bowls and the problems that can be created as a result of this. I want to replace the fuel bowl, but cannot find one anywhere with the drain screw. Do I need this drain feature or can I use #631867. If I do need this feature, could you tell me where I might be able to locate one? Thanks!!

[@MattsRageFitGarage]

Great video man !

[@streetdream1726]

I have the same carburetor but need to replace it, what are the serial number I’m trying to order a new one
