Dude, you are a friking genius; as a hurricane was moving towards us, the generator was not working right even after taking apart and cleaning the carburetor, I remember buying the acid almost a year back after watching this video and decided to try it before buying another generator, and to my surprise, this works, the generator is running as smooth as new. Thanks.

[@smallengineguys]

My favorite little secret im finaly sharing with my viewers

[@merlinwells87]

Great video and as the others have said you're a genius!. Will the 14k work on every carburator

[@rubennieves7357]

That acid is a game changer. Fix two of my ryobi generators. Tks for the video

[@smallengineguys]

good stuff right!?

[@jamesfish7152]

This absolutely works, even for the novice mechanics like me!!! Thank u!!!

[@smallengineguys]

You're welcome!

[@markwestervelt3590]

Followed your instructions 100% and runs great now. Thanks Mark Westervelt

[@TheChaztor]

Thanks for the video. I used ethanol free gas but yet here I am.

[@user-tl2jx6ur7x]

All with one hand! Very impressive!

[@hectormarty3120]

Just , crank this small engines once a month or every two weeks to prevent this from happening !! I will do as instructed by this gentlemen said ...here i go carburator !!, and thanks 🤗

[@mikerichardson4308]

Very helpful, was able to fix my gen by watching your video.

[@smallengineguys]

Glad it helped

[@Colla911]

Thanks for the video bud! The key for mine was that 14k gold tester did the trick for the jet.. super easy thanks to tour video 🤣🤣🤣

[@smallengineguys]

Nice work!

[@robertontiveros946]

Exelent teaching

[@randy1ization]

I have the same generator.. it runs ok for a while, like an hour then it carbon fouls the plug,, do you think a air jet is clogged, or is there an adjustment screw on the carb I ccan tune? thanks

[@wilfredvelez5033]

Thanks for the input; i cleaned the carb ,but notice 2 things : i found a little lose screw between the butterfly stuck in the carb . (just remove it no where to locate) then i accidently riped the inside gasket just a little bit ,next to the screw ) the gen started but i notice some wired failure.Apreciate your advice

[@smallengineguys]

LITTLE SCREW PROBABLY GOES TO THE BUTTERFLY TO HOLD IT ON

[@kenjesse5442]

Just the info I needed as I have the same generator. 48 hours till TS/Hurricane gets here and the damn thing would not start was about to take the thing apart when I found this vid. Thanks so much for making the effort to do so. If I don't get wiped out by the storm I'll send along a donation on top of my already subscribing and liking the vid.

GOOD LUCK WE THE OVER EXAGERATED RAIN STORM!!

[@TheChaztor]

@@smallengineguys Hope they survived.

[@labestiainfernal]

Excellent video! Is there a reason for why I shouldn’t use regular carb cleaner instead of brake cleaner to rinse of the carburetor?

[@smallengineguys]

nope.

[@allthings6173]

Ryobi is nice genset i hope, i can have one. So we can use here in bohol phillipines, were almost 1 month we dont have electricity here because if thyphon oddete.. Thank you po

[@smallengineguys]

Sorry to hear that. id get a Honda its much more reliable. best of luck. always wanted to travel to the Philippines.

[@sean2148]

I pulled the servo on the top and the black plastic linkage and spring fell out. How do they go back together

[@tylercameron9982]

I don't have a crescent wrench. Any idea how I can get those two side bolts off the carb? Left hand side

[@je2338]

The problem is, here in Australia a new carb cost half that of the testing solution lol.

[@smallengineguys]

you can do 70 carbs with a bottle but it isn't completely necessary. you can simply spray threw with compressed air and brake clean maybe poke it with a wire.

[@je2338]

@@smallengineguys thanks for the reply. The solution is a great idea if you have a small engine business. But I just have to fix mine. It's got fuel draining through into the air filter. I'm assuming it's probably the float?

[@smallengineguys]

@@je2338 its probably a dirty needle valve under the float.

[@je2338]

@@smallengineguys just pulled it apart, gave the needle a good clean and she's running like a dream. Thanks mate.

[@DJ-4341]

Is there a gasket between the carb and the engine? I didn’t see one in the video.

[@smallengineguys]

yes it stays on the engine

[@josernavarro6825]

HI a like you video and I did follow the way you clean the carburetor, and when I put everything back together it still said Overload......Question that mean that i Need a new carburetor.....let me know Thanks.

[@smallengineguys]

over load means it is revving to high and producing to much power. usually a computer issue. not worth repair sorry

[@drbooo]

absolutely excellent video

[@smallengineguys]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@almanacgoodsandapparel1309]

would you recommend filling it up with 91 octane once in a while to help it clear and burn all the stuff away

[@smallengineguys]

no. 91 with ethanol goes bad faster. rec 90 non ethanol i highly suggest

[@richardlopez5992]

Un clogging that tiny hole fixed the now start problem,

[@smallengineguys]

nice

[@LarrySawyer-gx9wq]

Thanks! That did the trick :)

[@smallengineguys]

You're welcome!

[@rilla64]

U seam a little insane using something that crossive but .the hell with the varnish thanks for the tip lol 😆

[@smallengineguys]

only crazy till you try it. thin line between genius and nut.

[@je2338]

It was also crazy to eat moldy cheese, but someone crazy tried it and boom, now it's for the sophisticated.

[@jjv5344]

Hey man I just removed carb cleaned and reassembled like you showed in the video. However when I turn the choke knob to run/start or choke gas leaks out of a port on the surface of the carburetor that mounts against the gasket between the carb and motor... any clue why this is happening? It is a pretty solid stream and everything is bolted up nicely?

[@smallengineguys]

your needle valve under the float is leaking. do it again sorry

[@javicantres493]

Mine is brand new out the box, will not start, I sprayed carb cleaner in it and it started right up , can my carb be clogged even though it is brand new ??

[@smallengineguys]

it could but more than likely a fuel flow issue. take the fuel line off of the carb pull over does the fuel flow out of it? if not maybe fuel pump or line is pinched somewhere?

[@javicantres493]

@@smallengineguys appreciate the response your a real one !! Couldn’t figure it out so I just returned it and got a new one , new one works just fine🤷🏼‍♂️

[@pamcorwin4748]

i removed carb i also removed the servo and when i did a little black piece fell out. i cannot figure out where it goes any help ?

[@smallengineguys]

i think on the little springs. god its been so long since i made that mistake i couldnt tell you

[@shannanhostetler5349]

Wish you would've taken the top end out. I'm trying to figure out where one spring goes. But Thanx.

[@smallengineguys]

Its best you never ever take it out. Sorry i dont have another to show you.

[@wilfredvelez5033]

Hi , just last night, after two year try to start but didnot ;great video explain, but dont have the 14 k solution . Is there anyother way (emergency) . Apreciate thanks

[@smallengineguys]

1 wire from wire wheel to poke out jets then rinse with carb cleaner well. This is only wire thin and strong enough.

[@BruhPlz]

how long have you had this generator for? recommend it?

[@smallengineguys]

Im a small engine shop but a buddy of mine used his 4 hours a week for 3 years

[@BruhPlz]

@@smallengineguys wow that’s actually not bad, thank you for the video, very helpful. I will purchase same model.

[@hermanmendoza7362]

My generator is always running high/loud like i have the load to max but nothing is plugged in. Seems like My idle buttom doesn't work.. surging bad too what could it be?

[@smallengineguys]

sounds like the throttle is stuck. take off air filter pull carb off studs you're looking for the butterfly valve on the back of the carb that's throttle the front one is choke. use some spray oil and move it back and forth you'll probably feel it give like its stuck just keep working it till it is smooth feeling.

[@mountnhome]

I ordered a new carb, and it has an extra fitting, with a hose attached. Vent or overflow or something?

[@smallengineguys]

Just overflow aim hose toward base of genset

[@bjthedj410]

I had same one float filled with gas found a crack in float any idea on proper float

[@smallengineguys]

cant get just the float. they only sell full carbs amzn.to/3HJ4FRz

[@wilfredvelez5033]

Hi, never found were the screw came from, ( inside the butterfly) but got it running, i notice some oil resudiu in the air filter ( its normal ? )otherwise everything good .the gaskets of carb need to change , i look for them but not sold separate) would you recomend me making them or anywhere to buy… thank you

[@smallengineguys]

Same gaskets as 5 hp honda

[@IslandGirlTLA]

Can you clean the carb jet with anything else?

[@smallengineguys]

just brake clean or carb clean and a thin wire from a wire wheel to poke it out

[@manuelbayon4361]

I took out the big 10 mm from the gasket below where the drain plug is, now i cant put it back. Any suggestions?

[@smallengineguys]

don't force it or strip it. you may need to take carb out to reinstall the bowl and bolt

[@scottjwaterman]

Will the 10k solid gold acid work? The 14 k is not available

[@smallengineguys]

No

Can you please post or let me know where the link is to the 14k tester that you use is. Please

Is it worth replacing An inverter on Ryobi 2200? It's 5 years old, I have not used more than 1 gallon of fuel. Thanks

[@smallengineguys]

i don't know why. sometimes they end sometimes they change things happen. if i had all the answers i wouldn't fix lawnmowers for a living. what i do know is i changed it for you amzn.to/3Rxg4qT

[@Josemanc]

Greetings from Australia mate. Did you notice the main jet size?. They have a number on the side. I have the same generator and it is always running lean. I wonder if the previous owner changed the main jet. Mine says 70 on the side.

[@smallengineguys]

i do not know sorry. use acid and boil it out. also there is a little idle jet on top of the carb under where the idle screw is or where it would be. its a plastic piece you pull out if its clogged the carb will run lean.

[@rilla64]

B n a 4 stroke I would guess as long as it was not very cold any wear from 55 to65 jetting is best they like good lean .if the motor has been broken in properly.. I can't emphasize break-in. Enough

[@iamlegend3669]

I need to replace the drain screw, can I just take it out and put the new one? It won't mess up an internal carburator part? Thanks!

[@smallengineguys]

It wont mess anything up. But why do you need to replace it? Ive never seen one go bad.

[@rilla64]

I appreciate you trying to help. But it is very obvious and clear that you just wanted to post some videos. I can tell you just had learned the hard way a few times at least you appreciated it enough to try to help other people. That is the pass I will give you sir. Anyone will tell you your Technique is crude but sometimes needed for the man that does not know how to adjust the carburetor. Although it is a quick fix that's very hard on gaskets, but let's face it these are cheap Motors if you get a few big jobs out of them they pay for themselves oh, I was laughing when it took you about 5 minutes to describe what a fuel return line was coming off what is clearly the intake right before a carburetor meets the block of the engine adjusting your air fuel mixture exactly right and being in tune with your exhaust and your jet selection different areas act different. In closing I would like to thank you because I was pretty sure I needed an eight and a 10 mm thank you

[@smallengineguys]

its hard to read what you have written. there is no air fuel mixture and you don't need to change jet sizes. this is simply a carb cleaning get your shit running video. i think you may be overthinking it. and yes in my 44 years of small engine repair i have learned many things the hard way.
