Another enjoyable learning experience, JD! Thanks for many laughs in one video! I wish I lived close enough to drop in (if allowed, of course!) once in a while to lend a hand and learn firsthand. I scored a freebie like-new smaller snowblower last year but haven't even had a chance to look at it, much less make sure it's running correctly and then list it (next Winter!). Just getting finished with my 2nd generator ever and if the person who requested it decides to pass I'll be listing it - my first listing in a long time. Hopefully I can go through more of my curb finds and donations and get them listed as well.

Thank you. And hey, If you’re ever going to be in the area shoot me an email 👍🏻I’m usually always around

What would cause the pilot jet to need drilling? I know it’s common to drill them, but I don’t know what causes them to need it. After all, it’s not a moving part, and there would be no mechanical wear (?). Thanks…I’m just trying to learn.

From the factory, they are set way too lean to meet emissions standards. I’ve seen them where they will surge even brand new. It’s almost always necessary to open them up at least one size in my experience.

@@hester781 I've suspected that if they run OK from the factory but develop a surge after a while it's corrosion buildup inside the emulsion tube or jets and a good cleaning will solve that issue. I haven't actually been able to prove this yet, so I'm still waiting for a fairly new surging engine to test my theory. :)

@@Rein_Ciarfellaif the motor is surging at high idle under no load it’s generally a problem in the pilot/idle circuit. Sometimes a carb clean will fix it but I’d say 7 out of 10 times the pilot needs to be drilled out. If the surge goes away under load then that confirms it’s the idle/pilot circuit

Great video. Curious as to why marine grease instead of anti seize? Does it keep moisture off the shaft better? BTW it was 6 turns bit who's counting...

@hester781 4 ай бұрын

Both will work in certain situations. But anti seize is not really a lubricant compared to grease and I’ve found it gets gummy after a year or so. On snowblowers where the rim is fixed to the shaft anti-is the perfect thing to use, but in this instance, where the rim needs to spin freely on the shaft, Marine is the way to go. Especially when it comes to the auto turn differentials.

@@LazyGrandpasGarage i’ve really become a fan of it in the last few years, the stuff I use is good for 0°F to 250°F and in Massachusetts. We never get close to that. And to answer your question from earlier I do believe it does a better job of keeping moisture out, especially during the wet slushy stuff👍🏻

@@hester781 I haven't used that yet - still working off my last pump tube of all purpose grease, but having worked in the marine industry for 20 years I can say that anything developed for use in salt water has to be superior to land-based products. Salt will destroy almost anything it touches if left for any length of time. Since we're using our snowblowers in an environment where salt treatment is common, using marine grease makes perfect sense. Heck, wipe it on valve covers like that one! ;-)
