Glad to hear you're getting value from these vids.

Its weird. I put out a video and think its good. A year later I watch it and think its lame 🙂Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching.

The good thing about being an employee is that I don't have a choice. Just do it!

I can't speak for the policies on the other side of the pond. Sometimes I forget my audience is bigger than my living room :-)

Same here in Canada

It can be hard to separate fuel issues from ignition issues. One way to diagnose a bad coil with reasonable certainty is confirm everything else is ok (kinda like you explained). Some electrical problems abruptly turn on and off or have a rhythm. A carb problem won't do that. The final way is that once you've done enough of these, well, you just know the difference.

Good luck with the repair!

Click Bait!

Good luck with your new trimmer.

Theres a few reasons for that. One is that someone may have worked on the equipment before and changed the hardware or the same model may use different hardware over the years. Another reason is because as a gear head I just assume that if you're gonna take on a project that you have the tools and will just grab the correct one for the job. I know thats not the right attitude but thats the way I think. Another reason is that some of these videos sit in my computer for years before I edit them and I just don't remember what sizes I've used. I guess I show you how I fixed something and some things you'll have to figure out on your own. Thanks for watching and commenting!

With Husqvarna a lot of times you won't see a service bulletin. All you'll see is a superceded part number. If there is a service bulletin it might only say something like "Part x has been upgraded to improve performance" or something like that. Don't get me wrong, they do have some very detailed service bulletins out there but not always.

Sure you can. Its like cutting the cheese. Things start flowing!

You are "cutting" whatever is stopping the flow. If you had a wooden dam, you might cut the wood to turn the water on. Just like by cutting a wire you stop the flow of electricity. In neither situation are you cutting the actual water or the electricity. In both situations you are cutting either the medium that it flows through or something that is clogging that medium...With electricity, a switch can clog the medium. If you remove (cut) the clog by turning a switch on, you are in essence "cutting on" the same way you use the switch to "cut off". Hope this helps.

You are correct, it is important and I forgot to mention it. Most Husqvarna 2 cycle engines call for a gap of .3mm between the flywheel and ignition module.

@@TheGreasyShopRag Thank you for the quick response. I honestly was not expecting an answer for a while. I am having this same issue with Husqvarna 122cc. I have all the information I need to fix it now. Thank you again.

Yep. Sometimes they were intended to be routed that way and other times they are mis-assembled from the factory.

Some models have an easy start feature that includes another spring. That could have slipped in the plastic pulley. It requires disassembly and inspection.

Bummer.

The same thing happened to me, i only used it twice then nothing.

.3mm Thanks for tuning in.

The official husky tool is part number 502513402 and is .3mm or .012" thick.

@@TheGreasyShopRagthanks so much i appreciate that. i am actually replacing the same ignition module on a husqvarna 122 LK. same exact thing. thanks.

I think you're looking at the fuel tank vent. That foam filter you see should have a duckbill valve under it. That may be leaking or missing.

@@TheGreasyShopRagyour right,and it is leaking

@@user-zp5st8ty6b The duckbill valve is part number 575484501.

.3mm

Your local Husqvarna dealer.

Thanks for watching!

I would say its not a common problem but it happens enough that identifying it has become easy.

@@TheGreasyShopRag so I replaced the same thing from aliexpress, now starts as it should be

@@supersonic0888 Good job!

Grooming is a waste of time with a mug like that.
