Easy to follow and thorough step by step tutorials do it yourself (DIY) to help you with your broken lawn and garden equipment including snowblowers.
I do my best to teach you how to easily diagnose problems the fastest, quickest and most efficient way with real repairs beyond just replacing a spark plug. These tips are for both the homeowner and shop owner.
Whether it be a handheld, two stroke, two cycle engine like a chainsaw, weed eater, weed wacker, string trimmer, grass trimmer, line trimmer, hedge trimmer, strimmer, brush cutter, leaf blower, or four stroke, four cycle units like a lawnmower, wood splitter, lawn tractor, snowblower, pressure washer, generator or a ride on mower that needs parts installed or replaced, I’m your go-to guy.
My favorite brands of spark plugs are NGK and Champion and are the ones I recommend.
I’ve been a small engine mechanic for many decades and also run my own repair shop so my videos are loaded with tips and tricks that I have learned and want to share with you. You will also find many tool and product reviews from top brands on my channel as well.
I have the largest Small Engine Repair Video Library on KZbin and the entire internet with over 1200 videos, just GOOGLE "DONYBOY73"!

Outstanding demonstration of that repair. I always learn a lot when I watch your videos!

[@floydrturbo1]

Very thorough video. Most comprehensive on this subject I've seen. And no BS music intro, get right to the facts. Thank you for a quality instruction.

[@Felix-bg7mu]

As usual, you provide excellent guide lines to learn and improve DIY. You're still on top on how to proceed step by step. Many thanks from France!

[@donyboy73]

merci

[@malikrameez703]

I won the first Honda macnic and after that I learned to fix the challenge by watching your videos slowly slowly repair all parts of chainsaw thanks donyboy

[@anthonygostling]

Husqvarna is one good saws if you look after them, good advice and a nice video.

[@999thenewman]

Excellent video. Good thing you kept that old saw as a parts carcass.

[@wayneberry8703]

Great job, Donny

[@joyceleitzel7269]

Good job! Good descriptions! Thanks!

[@peterorro883]

Thanks for the excellent video. Clutch has screwdriver notches on it where you can tap the clutch clockwise to remove it. Don’t really need a clutch removing tool or to pull the plug. Clutch also self-tightens when you run the saw because of the left-handed or reverse thread.

[@g-asplendidsavage1700]

Excellent video Don You are a wealth of information thank you

[@GaryT1952]

Well explained as usual Dony👍

[@jonathanbosco8458]

Thank you always impressed with your speed and knowledge working on engines. God bless

[@GrampiesWorkshop]

How's she goin'? Thanks for showing this procedure. The Husqvarna clutch tool makes this job a lot easier. Take care!!

[@robertmailhos8159]

I like the carboard test to show the proper lubrication of the bar & chain on the chain saw thx my Canadian bro 😎

[@donyboy73]

Made in Canada!

[@robertmailhos8159]

@@donyboy73 okay thanks for your reply young man 😎

[@donyboy73]

💥What do you guys think caused this problem?? I will answer later tonight!

[@kkovler1]

Pump itself needs lubrication, to keep it functional. suspect wrong oil or a clog, result in insufficient oil for the pump to work and lubricate itself.

[@donyboy73]

All the dirt under metal cover more than likely caused it!

[@KSReferee]

The person that owns the saw was using it to trench the ground to run a new water line AND a new sewer line. I've let others use my chainsaw while I've been there, first telling them to keep the chain out of the dirt, then if I see them try to cut soil I stop them and tell them they need to buy their own darn saw. It isn't rocket surgery to understand that gritty sand and dirt is going to cause problems, especially at those rpms. Thanks for what you do Don!

[@donyboy73]

@@KSReferee yes never lend a chainsaw!

[@peterorro883]

I did a similar thing to mine helping the old lady next door. Was cutting trees off at ground level that grew through an old junk car in her back yard that needed shifting. All sorts of dirt and sawdust got up behind the damaged chain guide plate and blocked up the oiler pump which chewed out the worm gear that drives the pump. Lesson: keep saw out of the dirt.

[@paullemay3218]

Thank you for sharing this procedure. 🇨🇦😎

[@robertcrowe5636]

Very good thanks

[@fullwaxjacket3154]

Really good video.

[@jackturner1157]

This was the only video that fixed my issue. Awesome video thanks so much

[@Smalltechguy]

I just bought that tool. Every time I watch your channel on a projects that I may be working on, always a helper tool is revealed. I love the spark testers that you utilize. What about excessive oil? Do you think its the adjustment?? I ordered another oiler though being that it did turn by my fingers, but felt kinda hard though.

[@michaelcountryman3981]

Thanks for the information.

[@philliphall5198]

Thank You’ll for information

Good video I watched you,r video on ms170 I am going to change mine over.

[@deanmoore3776]

Hey Donnie great video I just bought a piston stop not too long ago and the clutch tool works pretty awesome great video love watching them

[@markproulx1472]

Just did this on my Husqvarna 136. Believe me, I wish that I had seen this video beforehand.

[@markproulx1472]

Question: how can you determine the chain pitch that is compatible with the drive sprocket on a chainsaw?

[@kjell-richardlvdal373]

good to know that it is links thread, usually you have to unscrew anti clockwise

[@matthewkubik3874]

Call me lazy I Made the clutch tool adapt to my 1/4 inch impact. I have done piles of em that way. Worth mentioning sometimes that vent next to the oiler tube sometimes gets clogged.

[@gasperajdnik5627]

👍 Good Job 👍

[@kbemmerusa]

Dony, I found this video very helpful in finding my bar oiler problem, which turned out to be dirt & gunk build up on the bar and pump area and all is well now. I did notice the oil tank supply hose has a screen filter on the end of it and was very discolored. I only use bar oil in the saw so I’m not sure what caused this to happen. I sprayed it with carb cleaner but not sure if it’s allowing oil to flow correctly. I was unsure how to replace that line so I left it alone. If you could, I’d like to see that line replaced in a video. Thanks, Kevin E.

[@semco72057]

That is a nice job of replacing the oil pump on that saw. I have two saws made by their company and they are difficult to crank so I don't use them. I have a Stihl saw with the same problem so I only have been using my battery saw made by Poulan Pro to do the work around my home.

[@donyboy73]

battery powered saws is definitely the future for homeowners

[@slpc30]

Another awesome video thank you

[@Zombeegun]

I just picked up one of these so it's good to know.

[@evo4gsr151]

Is there an alternative or upgraded worm gear for the 455?

[@kjell-richardlvdal373]

great video once more, when do you start snowblower video

[@donyboy73]

in september

[@fieldtrailer]

Can you tell me how the pump to reservoir connection is sealed? How does it keep oil from leaking out of reservoir? Also, can you retrofit a 345 with an adjustable oil pump? What parts beside the new pump would I need?

[@lobdsk]

Very pro

[@RollingEasy]

Today I took my first look at a Husqvarna 455. How good of a machine is it as being a 'mid range' saw?

[@omgitsyoyo4923]

Is the old pump and the hose on the 455 rancher bigger than it is on at 445??

[@buckingsawpalace3029]

Love this content as well! So again - thank you for uploading this! But the video left me with some questions: Is it normal that you can pull up the Clutch drum on a Husqvarna 440 / Jonsered 2240 slightly? I can lift the drum on my saw some 2-3 mm and just wondered if this is normal? Also i would like to know if the clutch Cover raises its back as the screw pressed it down on the front to secure the bar correctly. And also as the 440/2240 has an oilpump which isn't adjustable but spills a lot of oil while running. Can you demonstrate how much oil is normal? Does this saws usually spill a lot of it underneath the cover, and if so - how much is too much? Do you recommend fixing the tubes with something like Hylomar? Would be very thankful if you could find the time to answer this questions (or maybe dave could find some time for this)?

[@justinhoward6075]

Could that pump fit on the 450???

[@bobbyowen6546]

I just bought a 6 inch aboutool chainsaw but the drives the sprocket pulls the chain towards me not forward that’s not correct I hope I’m wright🤠👍

[@garrypalmer5014]

Hi don, cuold you put some cork or rubber on the end of the piston stop, to help stop it marking the piston ?.

[@donyboy73]

no it may stay inside engine

[@firefightersh]

GOOD!

[@seansysig]

Now this is what all informative sharing videos should be like. Calm reassuring sound information. Know if I only had soares around the shop ;) Your the best! Do you e er work on BillyGoat or DR Field & Brush mowers?

[@donyboy73]

i never get them in the shop

[@georgikaradimov6901]

Hi Dony, great chanel. I have a question my stihl ms 261 after 15 tanks shows 14 500 rpm. Is that 500rpm higher are problem or not? Thank you

[@Neighborhoodgo2guy]

Solid video 👍

[@donyboy73]

thanks

[@paulpieretti9771]

Cool Thanks

[@RussellBooth1977]

You could make your own tool out of a nut & some pipe !

[@TheFlatlander440]

I'm curious why the piston stop tool isn't made out of brass so it won't score the top of the piston? Good vid though as I own a Husqvarna 455 Rancher. Cheers!

[@donyboy73]

yes i wondered that too

[@user-ci4xo7te8q]

good

[@darwindropmazda]

Hey don! Do happen have the part # for the Stihl 4mm Allen wrench tool? Been looking for that one for awhile!

[@snakeplayzyt3952]

Hey don I got a question. I just got a makita concrete saw for $130 used with the pull start broken So me and my dad opened it up and fixed the starter and put it back together. I should have noticed something was us when there was no blade belt and a few of the screws were missing Anyways I fixed it and once I started it it runs but on like half throttle and it wont stop any idea what that could be? It revs higher when you give it throttle but I have no clue what to do And also any idea where I could find a aftermarket belt? I'm not very interested in paying $50 for a oem one Thanks

[@donyboy73]

carb issue or check condition of piston and rings by removing the muffler

[@mattfrank5314]

are husqvarna chain guards 6:20 plastic?. last time I bought a bottom line one it was plastic and cracked first use maybe 10 minutes of use .

[@donyboy73]

this one is metal

[@zx8401ztv]

Hmm plastic threads, not very strong :-(. That tool looks like a cut down sparkplug socket, hacksaw/grinder on standby lol.

[@manospap3496]

Can you put this oil pump on 450?

Hello, maybe someone can help me. So here is my problem: I have Husqvarna 555 RXT trimmer, it starts and runs fine. But when I tilt it or cutting a grass in uphill position - it dies very often. So far I changed fuel filter, air filter, spark plug, seals, gaskets, even carburetor! Everything EOM. What can cause problem like this? I don't know what to think... 😢

[@donyboy73]

possibly crank seals

@@donyboy73 Installed brand new. Any other suggestions, maybe there are some other rare reasons?

[@donyboy73]

@ take muffler off and have a look at piston and rings

@@donyboy73 Ok, it will check it. Btw, from carb side the piston looks like new, no scratches.

[@jamieellison9680]

How do I order the pump and stuff for the chainsaw

[@donyboy73]

go to a Husqvarna dealer

[@jimreese9823]

What are oem parts.

[@donyboy73]

oem = original equipment manufacturer

[@pm270100]

hi don how ya been what s your fav saw ????????????????

[@donyboy73]

Husqvarna 562xp

[@papajolly20]

On several of your videos you use a nylon rope instead of a piston stop, now this video you are using a piston stop. My question is why? if you are careful with the piston stop will it be better than maybe getting the rope stuck?

[@googleplusisdead]

Thanks. What's your take on youtube no longer sending emails when a video is posted? Kinda gets rid of any reason to stay subscribed.
