Are you nuts forty one pulls....open up spark plug and pull once or twice and put it back thats all

[@Lovinflyindrones2022]

I like the way you always start from the beginning. You don't assume someone knows this or that. You explain it so good that a child could understand it. I like that. Please keep it simple and thorough at the same time thanks

Greetings from Sydney Australia Steve,loving your channel and have earnt yourself a new subscriber.You do remind me of the late Patrick Swayze.Keep up the fantastic work my friend.

[@mercoid]

William Isen ....I’ll second that. Steve, the information you put out is pure gold. I knew this technique already but didn’t know you could force it out of hydro-lock like that. There’s nothing worse than needing to get a job done and your equipment is giving you trouble. Thanks.

Been ripping my hair out when my trimmer shut down on me. I've been priming it time and time again to no avail. Then I remembered a friend of mine mentioning this video so I took a drink break and looked it up on YT. Thank you, man. Can't believe how easy it is especially the clear manner in which you explained it. You ended my day on a high note. Thank you again.

[@martinruiz141]

Thank You!! Took out my Echo weed trimmer this morning and nothing. I actually have a blister on my index finger from pulling the cord so much. Took a break and found your video. I knew I was over flooded because the gas was spewing out of the exhaust. Tried your method and wallah!!! Only took me about five pulls and she started right up. Just gained a new subscriber 👍🏼

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

Right on Marty! Thank You...

[@imannonymous7707]

Ya i had fuel pissing out my echo trimmer too , my mistake was i kept choking once i got it unsiezed and pulling....then i came and watched the vid... i called it a day but i know better next time. My biggest problem besides being dumb is im gettn old

[@rboy93]

This helped me solve some problems with a whipper snipper I'd left outside for a bit too long. I thought I was flooded but after watching this I realized the spark plug was bone dry so it was the pump that needed fixing! Thanks from Australia!

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

Thank You Alexis! I am honored...

[@trashcancooler]

Steve, your method worked way better than what the mechanic at my small engine shop showed me (pull the spark plug and blow the cylinder out with a compressor). Once I pulled the air cleaner off I was able to see and understand the choke and throttle movements. I wont forget this lesson. Keep making these videos.

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

Thank You...

[@AngelHdzMultimedia]

You are a life saver man! I am so thankful. I bought a Shindaiwa T262 on 2018 after Hurricane María so I can start a new job in landscaping (because power was down for a long period of time and I couldn't continue working in my design/programming/music prodicution freelance job) and it have been working flawlessly until yesterday. I trimmed, put it down, blew with the blower, and when I started it again to continue trimming, it wouldn't start. I cleaned the spark, the filter, and was about to either take the trimmer to a shop to clean or replace the carburetor, or to buy a carburetor kit on Ebay. This increased my already present generalized anxiety thinking about what I was gonna do now, with no money, and no nearby shops. So after searching for how to clean the carb yesterday, today this video popped up in my KZbin home. So I decided to watch it. I was hopeless but decided to try it anyway. After pulling the cord maaaany times, it made the first attempt to start and I was like "No way!!!" so I kept pulling. And the darn trimmer started!!!! Now I'm pulling my hairs about what went wrong. I probably started the trimmer with the choke on and flooded it. I'm so happy now and ashamed about how easy the fix was. Now I need to play with the accelerator screw, which I turned around yesterday to test few theories, and when I release the accelerator now the trimmer shuts down immediately. We need more heroes like you, kind people willing to keep the information flowing and sharing (as I do with my design/programming/technology/music skills) to give everyone a hand in times of need. I wish you success, health, joy, and blessings. From Puerto Rico.

[@markb8954]

As usual, Steve provides good straight forward information regarding “flooding” and then goes to the extreme to bang home the idea of what flooding really is AND how to easily resolve the issue with “no tools.” I know i have experienced flooding syndrome with my Husqvarna chainsaw.

[@jamievaldivia-b7t]

Awesome! Thanks for the help. Finally got my 20 year old weedeater back running after a carb replacement and engine flooding cleared. It's alive!

Thanks Steve! Bought a brand new Stihl fs38 last week, worked great on the day. Went to start it this weekend and flooded it. Was on the verge of taking it back to the shop until I found your video. Cheers from down under

Thank you Steve, I thought I needed to take my trimmer to the shop when it was simply flooded your the man bro.

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

Very welcome

[@bobd5119]

Today, I didn't need to pour gas into my FS-45's cylinder to flood it. I just tried to start it. After I gave up, I removed the air filter from the throttle housing, and gas poured out! Per your instructions, Steve, I must have over choked. I probably squished the primer bulb too many times, too (six squishes). Also, seeing you pull the starter 293 times (more or less) was encouraging and instructive. I would have thought it was hopeless. Lesson: keep on! Thanks!

[@johnem712]

I actually gasped when you poured that much gas into the cylinder fearing that it would be hydraulically locked and you would have no chance of even getting it to crank much less starting it. Although my back would have gone out pulling it that many times you did prove your point. btw I am an engineer and the good old boys so often know their sheet better than us. Thank you for proving me wrong and bravo to you.

Hi Steve; I actually did this and it worked. However, due to the heart attack I suffered right after I could only use my chainsaw while lying on the ground. Seriously it did work for me and I thank you. It took 14 pulls and wiped me out. 🥵

After replacing the fuel line and filter with a new one, I was still having issues with my weed eater. I would pull and pull the cord while on choke setting and it wouldn’t start.

[@raquelnin2469]

I could not start my Craftsman weed eater. I took the carburetor apart and cleaned it well but still would not start. I stumbled upon this video and did this. After putting the choke lever in the wide-open position, pressing the trigger, and pulling the cord about 15 times, it finally started. Thanks for this video, man. It saved me God knows how much money for a repair person.

[@michaelfrancalanzo4485]

Thank you sir. I set my trimmer down on my lawn (like I've done dozens of times), but this time it decided to roll all the way to the sidewalk. (There is a slight grade). After that it smelled like gas big time and wouldn't restart. I knew it was flooded, but beyond waiting it out, I didn't know how to "unflood" it. I ran into the house and found your video. It worked like a charm. I finished my trimming job along with the rest of the yardwork. I was actually keeping the choke on and wondering why the damn thing wouldn't start. Thanks for making my day easier and more productive!

I too had to smile when you helped us Brits by mentioning petrol. You have an amusing and sure fire, get the message across approach to helping people. I have an old MS 260 with which I have to be careful never to let it run out of petrol. If it does it seems to be always flooded after refilling! If in a hurry I unscrew the plug to dry it then try again, if not I go indoors, make a cup of tea, eat a couple of chocolate biscuits then try again. You say "without tools" but experience has shown me to always have a plug spanner handy, besides, I am nowhere near as energetic as you, young man.

[@davidkleshinski9475]

Thank you! Our trimmer flooded yesterday. I got up this morning prepared to visit the store for tools to remove the spark plug, then drain per the manufacturer's info. Then I watched your video. It probably took some 30-50 cranks (we didn't count) between two people, handing it off when one got tired, but it started. Ran it full throttle for a few minutes after. Turned it off, and waited. Starts again like normal now.

Great job my friend! thanks for taking the time to post excellent info... I gotta tell ya there's just something about small engine repair.... I'd rather take my direct injection gas engine opart in my VW than mess with small engines.. People have no idea how precise the repairs on small engines actually are. I can get any gas or diesel engine running with way out of wack air/fuel ratios but a small engine?? Good luck folks... Even as a Red Seal Factory Trained Grand Master Technician, I drop my small engine repairs off to our local guru. Im glad he's still around as small engine repair professionals are becoming few and far between in my locale. Yes I can make a Porsche sing, a VW hum and a Cadillac smoke tires but when it comes to my small engine repairs I just leave that to the man who knows them best.

Went to school for small engine repair and things can be a little tedious but not much harder in my opinion than larger engines, just smaller and less parts. Carbureted usually instead of fuel injected but thats the biggest difference

Thanks Steve from a fellow Steve! I think this could've saved my dad (his name is Steve also) a lot of time taking the chainsaw, weed whacka, etc apart and cleaning the carb and spark plug! You da man

Ok I’m going to sound stupid but I just learned what happens when you pull the choke lever out lol I always thought it limited or restricted how much fuel when to the engine lol. So, all these years whenever I flooded my chainsaw I would pull the choke lever out lol I’m 50 and have been using a saw since I was 15 so 35 years and you just taught me something! You are da Man! Love your videos! What can I do to support your channel? Oh and where can I get that tool you used to remove the spark plug? Again You are da Man!

Good morning Steve right so I took my Florabest petrol it’s German make to repair shop & they say that is un repairable & need new carburettor but they said that we can’t get it so I brought this machine Back home .after searching I ordered carburettor from eBay cost me £10 now there are 100’s of carburettor on eBay that fit my machine so how come that Wally said that can’t get carburettor.nevertheless I put the carburettor on so my original carburettor had a separate primer bulb but this one had actually on the carburettor method is same tried it & it worked but after it stopped & I couldn’t get started this stage I was right pissed off sorry for a bad language but spark plug was flooded so I left it & that’s where I found you & watched your video my god Steve it worked & never stopped 👌👌so guys this Steve is No 1 men. Thank you so much Steve & God bless you all 👍👍👍🙏🤓🤓
