Husqvarna 125B Leaf Blower Carburetor Replacement

[@markfrankel9345]

Thank you for this video. My sister-in-law had a landscaper leave a Husqvarna 125BV in her yard and it sat outside for two years and she had it in her garage for another three or four years. After seeing your video I bought a carb kit and replaced the carb. My first small engine repair. It runs like a charm.

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a nice comment. May I warn you that the cheap hoses may only last for a couple of seasons. I recommend the brand 'Tygon Tubing' that brand is used in industry.

[@HeavyPilot83]

I really liked your tip about using a nut to hold down the carb while you put the housing back on. Great video!

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Thank you

[@glennnelson3275]

By far the best video on the internet for working on the 125B! Sadly it didn't fix my blower and it's now at a service shop down the road, but was great detail nonetheless.

[@Buzbomber2]

I think this has been the best video on how to change out a 2 cycle carburetor I've ever seen. Thank you so much. I never knew about the vacuum path.

[@XY_Dude]

One thing I learned real fast with yard gas power tools is NEVER use pump gas - the alcohol destroys the plastic. Best is bite the bullet and buy premixed fuel. Worth the cost. Super vid, BTW.

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Yes, I agree. We have a non ethanol gas station here. Just about ten cents higher than ethanol laced gas and cash only. I have decided to go there from now on.

[@judgefla]

After being quoted around $82 to replace a carburetor with a $35 non-refundable deposit on my blower (still in warranty, but they don't warranty fuel related issues) I wish I had watched this before I even brought it down for repair (so much for warranty work). I already HAD a replacement carburetor that I bought when I bought the blower (I like to be prepared, but since it was still in warranty.....). I really appreciate your video, it was detailed and explained extremely well, thank you. I'll give it a shot this week.

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Maybe go electric if that is an option for you. I think Milwaukee is the best one there.

[@judgefla]

@@A_Renaissance_Man Hi David, thanks for the reply and video. I picked up a cheapo blower while mine was in "limbo", so I've got that as a backup. I just have your video on my tablet, so I'll be using that in the garage when I do the carb install. I feel confident I'll be able to the install with your video there to guide me, plus I'll take pictures as I go as you had mentioned. Would this be close to changing a carburetor on a Husqvarna 128LD String Trimmer?

[@mattbrown1165]

With the help of your video I changed out my carburetor this morning. It went flawlessly and started up on the first pull. Thank you.

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

These videos are made for you and I am glad this was helpful.

[@MrLokNesss]

First off I LOVED your presentation and was literally in the process of buying everything to repair my 'never ever start' blower, when I ran across a comment from someone that said that the only thing wrong with their Husqvarna 125B was the vented gas cap was clogged (creating a vacuum in the tank) which prevented it from starting... Well 1/2 can of canned air later applied directly to the little hole on top of the cap and she's running like a champ now!!! 😉😉😉

[@jameshthorpe]

I watch a lot of you tube DIY vids, and this truly was one of the best step by step tutorials I’ve watched. Followed exactly and fixed my blower in no time. Amazon has the whole kit to include spark plug for less then $20. Again, thanks!

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Thank you for those kind words.

[@redfury1977]

Thank you for this video, I was stuck after trying to clean old carb, bought new kit and fired right up! Thank you!!

[@spockmcoyissmart961]

I used to do the break down, ultrasonic cleaner, etc. Couple of hours spent on it. The carb kits today have all new stuff. New fuel lines too, where a lot of issues start with the cheap chicom fuel lines today that crack/suck air/leak. It is not cost effective to break down/soak/clean. Some even include the spline screwdriver to adjust the lo/hi settings.

[@CarlGerlach]

I used this video to investigate problems with my 125B and low and behold, the two screws you mentioned were loose, the ones that keep the air filter, carb from moving all over the place, I also had one broken engine mount and a broken mounting screw (different hole). I remember everything you said except the stupid blower fan nut. I turned it left to loosen versus right and damaged the nut threads. It looks like the threads on the shaft are usable, so I ordered another nut to replace. I hope it works. If I could get another season out of it, that would be great. Thank you for the great video.

[@MrCbell57]

Hi. Great interactive video here. Yes, it does make a diff. Which side you connect at the bulb. One side sucks and then other begins to push. It is called priming the carb. Sending gas to the carb at the lower connection closest to choke lever. If you hook it up backward the bulb will not come back out if you press it in. In fact, I just had mine apart and it is the shorter connection on the bulb that goes to the top of carb which sucks gas into and through the carb. Thanks for mentioning this. Most people do not know which one side is which. Thanks for your video.

[@ReezyE405]

That is the best video i have seen on the 125B model. I was only looking for a video on replacing the gas lines and it was clearer and explained better than ANY video I've seen. BTW you should add gas line replacement to your title, I bet it will get a ton more views. Thanks! Awsome video

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

[@emilybritton4048]

Excellently explained, best video I've seen on this! I had a very difficult time feeding the line through the rubber gas tank grommet. I found it very helpful to put a small amt of lubricant on the line. It slipped right through and made world of difference!

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Thank you. I am glad this helped. Watch out for cheap gas lines. Sometimes they only last a year.

[@jonkillpack8911]

I was going to take my Husqvarna leaf blower into a service center to have it serviced but after watching your video I decided to try and do it myself. I ordered the new Husqvarna OEM carburetor from Amazon which cost $10 more than the generic brand but was worth it. Your video was so clear after watching it just once I tackled the job myself. There were a couple of instances where it turned out to be a bit more difficult to do than I thought it would be but I worked through it. All in all your video was very well done and gave me the confidence I could do it myself. Thanks for your effort in putting that out there for us DIYs. A five star video!

My fuel lines only lasted a year. Unless they say "Tygon" tubing they might not too long. Thank you for your comment.

[@airmike1271]

Thanks for this video. I got way ahead of myself and disconnected the fuel lines without noting which lines attach to the upper and lower fuel line nipples. Naturally, I hooked that up in reverse order. Gaskets; I screwed that up too as it appears that the inner gasket should be sealing up vacuum alley. Needless to say, I have adjusted the fuel mixture on the high and low settings in and out. Close both and bring both out 2-1/2 turns as a starting point. A quarter turn to fine tune. However, I could be wrong. I can get the engine to start, but it leans out and dies. Miraculously, I did a head gasket job in a car last year, tuned r/c nitro engines for 30 years, but this, this has me so infuriated and on here. Thank you for this video to get my gaskets in order. I am sure dissembling for the third time is the charm 😜

[@dansig123]

I did this and it worked. My Husky 125b was sputtering all the time and dying until I replaced the carb. Like the author said, make sure the fuel lines don't get pinched behind the carburetor on re install. Got the OEM kit on Amazon and it worked fine. And PS, get the new fuel lines and primer bulb when you buy. Money well spent.

I was looking for a lightweight blower for my deck. kzbin.infoUgkxgioZQl3J5wPGAeDINzbieKbT5qomSEx3 There are some huge trees around my house and the leaves and pods drop all over my deck. Having to move furniture around to sweep has become too big a chore. This blower was the answer. It is light enough for this 70yr old lady and powerful enough to blow all the tree droppings off my rather large deck. Thank you B&D. Be aware the cord is not included. I use a 3 prong outdoor cord 25' cord for my 12' x 20' deck. The cord retainer works very well, but don't try to pass the plug through it. That is NOT how it works. You just have to loop the cord and it works great. One of my best purchases. Very happy.

Great video, thanks for explaining so clearly. Told today it will cost £140 to have mine professionally replaced, but having watched this I don't see why I can't replace it myself! Only thing I'm wondering - is there any real difference between OEM and cheaper parts on Amazon and risk of damage to machine, etc? Many thanks, James

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Well James ... I have had pretty good luck with the cheap carburetors being sold on Amazon. Also, They only last two or three years so replacement is easier than repairing the hardened gaskets. May I highly recommend Tygon tubing and discourage you from using any tubing provided with the cheap carburetors. I also recommend using NGK spark plugs as they should last two or three years minimum. Another issue is that the piston cylinder will eventually wear out and then a replacement machine will have to be considered so why dump too many shillings into a machine that is wearing out with each use.

[@jiminauld]

Thanks so much for the quick and helpful response. Do you happen to know the diameter and length of the required tubing? @@A_Renaissance_Man

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

@@jiminauld both 3/32 & 1/8" ID will work. OD does not matter. That brand and size should be on Amazon's web site.

Thank you! Excellent video. Does anybody know the risks of not having the grounding wire? I seem to have lost mine...will that prevent it from starting?

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

The ground wire is for stopping not running. You can rig something up. Does not have to be OEM or look nice.

[@joesixpack8305]

For another $10-15 more you can get the genuine Husqvarna OEM carb on Amazon. It's worth every penny. Those sub $20 Chinesium carburetors are hit and miss...mostly miss. And then you have to adjust the daylights out of them and it's a constant battle every time you fire up your blower. The OEMs are mostly plug n play and they last.

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

You are correct. I now only purchase OEM because the price includes a Quality Control department.

[@dcedmeyer]

Great video! Totally helped me make the replacement. Much appreciated!

[@petertimpson9378]

This video is a great help. Just one question on the bulb there are the two hose connections one is shorter one is longer which one goes to the carburetor and which one comes from the tank to the bulb?

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Yea, I dodged that in the video. The short line on the Purge Bulb might be stamped 'in' if you can see the black-on-black writing. The long one is the out to the gas tank. The short one goes to the carburetor and the long Purge Bulb line goes to the fuel tank. You can test to make sure but remember this does not flood the carburetor, the Purge Bulb only removes air from the line.

[@robertbrown6755]

I haven't looked through the comments but on that primer bulb it does make a difference which lines hooked to which one by now you probably know that LOL

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Actually it does make a difference. I did blow that detail off but, you need to make sure that the discharge goes back into the tank. The blub draws fuel out of the tank, through the carburetor, then into the bulb, and back into the tank.

[@EMH72]

Swapped out carb, fuel lines, plug and air filter. Ran great at first then after a while felt like it was losing power. Temperature was in the 40's when I did the test run not sure if thar has anything to do with it. Any ideas?

Mine just wore out. The rings were gone and the piston was scrubbing the cylinder walls. Of course the only to tell is by trying to look on the carburetor or muffler side to look for ware. Sounds like you might be experiencing the same thing.

Hey Dave, I have the same 125B and barely have 3 hours on it. I've had nothing but problems with this unit. I finally replaced the carb and fuel lines. It runs fine for a short time and then the same issue...sputters, boggs, and dies. Any suggestions?

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Difficult to say without looking at it. If the fuel oil mixture is correct and the machine is new then there could be a manufacturer defect, probably involving the piston. Could also be the spark plug. They start acting up after a few hours of total run time. I recommend NGK 6703, check your manual. Make sure it says "Made in Japan" on the NGK box or it could be a counterfit. If new, you have to take it somewhere to have a teck work the warrenty. Once fuel is in the machine cannot be returned. GL. Probably spark plug.

[@pc7377]

Well, I did take it the first time a dealer who ripped me off saying it was bad fuel and charged me $79 when I feel it should have been under warranty. It worked for a couple of times them back to the same old. Hence I made sure fuel lines and all were good. The lines seemed old on a new in box unit..weird. So bought the new carb and replaced lines. I'll try the new plug see what happens...but it just feels fuel related. I need to make sure I didn't install the return and supply wrong. I'll check that later again..BUT THX

Aloha David- Thanks a bunch for sharing your knowledge and skills. Followed your video and was successful with my repair. The fuel lines on my blower were broken and seemed to be deteriorating/softening inside the fuel tank. Was wondering if that is due to the ethanol in the gas? Take Care & Be Safe!

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

Although that could contribute, the primary cause is age as the lines just become brittle over time. I have found that the location of line falure are typically at intersection where the line goes into the tank. I use high octane fuel as the chemical base is different from the lower grades. Also, ethanol free gas might also be available. Very high octane avation gas is also an option, but you should get four to six years out of a set of fuel lines no matter what fuel and oil combination you use.

Well ... Instead of a link, please search Amazon for Husqvarna 125B Leaf Blower Carburator and you will see 4 or 5 listings of the same model number. Amazingly, prices range from $12.99 to $30.99. Most are Prime if you have that. The one for $13.24 is the best but, the one for $18.99 also has two primers, two fuel filters, a spark plug, and a carb mix adustment screwdriver.

Certainly sound like the Carburator needs to be replaced. The second suspect is a cracked or broken fuel line as they become very brittle over time. Good like in fixing your leaf blower.

Is there an actual Amazon link to the parts your purchased?

[@A_Renaissance_Man]

No link because, the so called manufacturers name changes as their stock runs out so what I bought might not be available when someone watches the video. Also, PLEASE buy 'Tygon' tubing because the cheap tubing in these kits do not last. Some only last one season.

Can someone please tell me how these lines go and to where? I have all my lines messed up I believe. Two lines are in the tank one has a filter which one goes to the carburetor? One on top the carburetor goes to the primer bulb does it matter which one the longer or shorter one

If you hit the wall, take it ti a shop. Watch the vid close and follow directions.

The line with the gas filter feeds gas from the tank to the bottom of the carb. The line from the short nipple sucks gas through the carb to get the air out and goes to the top of the carb. The third line simply dumps excess gas (and the air bubbles) back into the tank.

I have the Husqvarna 125BVX ( same but with vacumn attachment) it is brand new, just got it, and it seems to be bogging down, losing power. Could it be the carburetor needs adjusting? Thanks

If you are lucky. Check out Steve's Small Engine Saloon on KZbin for some good videos on making those adjustments. However, if it is brand new, take advantage of the warrenty. I know, that is a pain, but you can let the shop deal with it.

You should have ordered a set of adjustment tools for $10. Nothing wrong with the carb
