you do a real good job, I worked for over 40 years on machinery repair, over time my hands took a tole from cleaner, gas and other chemicals. I would not wear rubber gloves because I would drop parts. We learned to wear rubber glove in the last 10 years to keep our hands from drying out and cracking. I don't think anyone would think bad of you if you also used rubber glover to keep the chemicals off you hands. If they do, they have not done this type of work and had to live with dry cracked hands. Good Luck.

when I rebuild any carb, I use an ultrasonic cleaner and pine sol. yes pine sol. safe for metal, rubber and plastics. then reassemble and set the basic adjustments. most carbs are handled pretty much the same way. good video. thanks.

I really liked your video. A separate thing, i was watching a video on mower carburetors and the guy removed the fitting where the gas line went into the carb body and there was a filter back inside the hole. Who knew right? Just curious when that started. Maybe you could look under one. Yes, you talked about a screen in there. Good stuff.

Hi could you tell me the difference between a Massey Ferguson TO 35 and a TE 20. By the way your videos are awesome

@robert574 11 ай бұрын

I wonder if you had a wooden box maybe 12" x 12" x say 4" deep and then cut and sewed a canvas bag like it was going over a foam seat cushion that would fit inside and filled it with something non compressible that wouldn't want to squish away but not too heavy like crushed limestone (maybe like crushed walnut hulls or something). It might make you a good work surface to hold parts and hammer on them, maybe. Sand might even work if you put it inside some bags first so it couldn't leak out. Maybe oil sand like they use in casting molds. Could be useful or a complete disaster like most things I do.

Really informative and great presentation. My only jab on this is that youre wearing safety glasses at the same time that youre neglecting to wear gloves while using a solvent to clean the carb. In the long term that leads to pretty significant neurological damage.

Excellent video but I don't trust carb cleaners to always work especially doing this thorough of a rebuild. Even soaking in carb cleaner doesn't do the trick sometimes. On a particularly stubborn case of a clogged carb an old mechanic recommended this. Put on a pot of water and get it hot. Put in a little tide and dissolve it completely. After removing all the gaskets and o rings from the carburetor, put it into that solution for about 15 minutes. After taking the carburetor out, rinse it off thoroughly. This method worked like a charm. Also, you don't risk exposing yourself to the toxic chemicals found in carb cleaners.

You described how to measure the float level but you did not explain how to adjust the float if it is not correct. Obviously I will assume some slight bending on the float would be needed to get the correct float level.

Dan Gingell and Rachel Gingell, I think I am overlooking something obvious... But there are only two felt and rubber pieces and three places (two sides of the choke shaft and one on the throttle shaft). It looks like Rachel used the felt at both sides of the chole.... What is supposed to go on at the throttle?

should give that carb a good soak in varsol for bit

@paulcopeland9035 5 жыл бұрын

"Varsol" ! Good solvent. Haven't heard about that in years. I don't believe they sell it any longer to the general public. Here is an interesting fact: WD-40 is over 50% Stoddard Solvent (Varsol). They add around 25% mineral oil plus various dryers and a coating solution. There you have it: WD-40! Not a very good lubricant, but I bet it would clean up this carb pretty well.

I would advise protecting my hands from chemicals such as the carb cleaner. They can be absorbed through the skin and can cause cumulative damage to the kidneys and liver with long exposure.
