IS IT FIXABLE? Husqvarna Trimmer with SEIZED ENGINE! (128cd 128ld Teardown)

I paid $10 for this Husqvarna 128cd weed eater trimmer, but the engine was seized. The piston was seized to the inside of the cylinder. Someone probably ran it without the proper 2-stroke oil mix in the gas. In this video, we'll try to show how to free up a seized trimmer motor...that if IF we can free it up. In the end, we'll figure out whether this thing is junk or whether we can fix it.

A win that you haven't broke that glass table workbench!

[@davidflamee]

Some thoughtful camera angles made this an absorbing and interesting video. Another great result too. Well done,

[@Fixologist1]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@frankc5615]

Digging your videos man. I look forward to every video

[@danielrogers7138]

Love those little two-strokes. So simple yet so eager (fun) to run.

[@timothystevenhoward]

way to go Brad

[@toby2581]

Those generators are always shockingly heavy. I hate when I have to move mine. But Husqvarna weed whips are really nice - a lot better built than most brands.

Holy husquvarna batman..Great video buddy

[@ZPDSurvival]

Cool. I like the new channel. Subscribed. I am collecting and working on Coleman stoves, lanterns at the moment.

[@paul2602]

Another success story. 👍

[@jacobdowler1]

Forgot your PPE Brad. lol ...That is a damn good weed whacker.. You should keep tat one. i like to use the T-25 heads, they are only about 20 bucks at Lowes and i like to use orange Oregon .095 trimmer line in conjunction. You can get a big spool of it for a decent price and will last a good long time. Also you can get some good attachments for that like the cultivator/tiller attachment expensive but worth it. They are proprietary to Husqvarna but you do get what you pay for. Makes light work for gardens and you can make a killer compost with the tiller attachment. You should make you a good compost in that area by your garage there. I was hoping you were going to whack down that tall weeded grassy area by the garage.

Brad would have placed a blanket on the back of the car to save the paintwork from being scratched enjoying your fixits.

Take care

[@bobbydent6485]

Quick trick. Always pull the spark plug. Run the oil straight into the cylinder. Leave it alone for a day.

[@Fixologist1]

I do mention that about 15 minutes in. If I was smarter, that’s what I would have done from the beginning.

[@StackzMcgee]

Does the oil need to be drained out after?

[@bobbydent6485]

@@StackzMcgee the oil will blow out the spark plug hole if the engine has any compression. If not, oil in the cylinder is the least of your worries.

I was thinking, I live in a beautiful part of the UK, the Lake District but if I came too after a snooze, would I know I wasn't in England and it was the fences that struck me. Ther are places that look like that but Cumbria is a bit more rugged.

Got to love people!

[@martyheathers3549]

First I thought the rod was knocking but I think it’s the clutch rattling

[@MrMeadfoot]

I was waiting on a Laurel & Hardy moment as you took the Gen out the back of the car 🤣

I'm surprised as anyone you didn't get your moment.

[@PlanetaryThoughts9861]

Was anybody else saying "TAKE THE MUFFLER OFF"? Lovely scenery, but do y'all have police chases like they do in Arkansas? I really love the 129 mph pit maneuvers!

[@RebeccaPatton-dl8zy]

Why did it seize?

[@cooper512atx]

I had zero compression so I replaced the piston. Only when I put the front housing over the clutch it doesnt want to spin anymore. It will spin without the housing. Im at a loss does anyone have any ideas? I dont get why the clutch drum is stopping it from turning.

[@mun33y]

Check that your flywheel isn’t hitting the tabs of the ignition coil ..I’ve had that happen before

[@marcgardiner6278]

Did you give the genny back?

[@Fixologist1]

No. At the end of the day, after thinking it over, the guy did say he already bought a new one, and this one was already at the curb headed to the dump. That's where it would be now had I not saved it, so I'm going to keep and use it.

[@OptOutofGunControl]

I have an idea for a partner channel. I'll call it the fuxologist and I'll just f*** up everything I can get my hands on then send it to you to fix. 😉

[@jacobdowler1]

Try taking the guard off

[@garyclifton2180]

Did you give the Jenny bk

[@carlnet1948]

Why did you not take the plug out???? Can't believe you took everything else apart and you still did not take the plug out??????

[@chrissullivan40]

I was half expecting to see a snake fly out of the bushes and bite Brad. Instantly demonetizing the video.

[@punkassfunk]

Gosh I guess you fixed all the amps and none are left.
