Awesome video! Many youtubers explain one part of the process, but you've shown top to bottom how to take it apart, put it back together, the post-op tuning process, and why you're doing what you're doing.

Thank you so much. Followed this video the whole way, replaced the fuel lines, cleaned carb, replaced filter that had come off from line. Runs as good as new. And I have never once done anything with a small engine.

I found it much easier to just replace the carburetor for $13 on Amazon comes pre adjusted and more importantly, comes with flat head screws for adjustment instead of the ridiculous EPA mandated recessed screws that require a special Pac-Man wrench. Best advice after two seasons, throw out the carburetor throw out the fuel lines throughout the spark plug and make sure to properly mix the oil exactly according to the recommendations. Don’t forget to grease the trimmer head once in a while.

Brilliant! Had the exact same problem. Renewed carb parts but never in a thousand years suspected that the carb needed readjustment. Found this video by chance, followed it, and bingo. One of the best.

This is my EXACT brand trimmer head. I bought a battery-powered unit but I think I will give a repair of the old one a shot. Thank you for taking the time to do this video!

Watching and hearing your explanation of adjusting the fuel mixture screws and idle screw was extremely helpful. Hearing that you cleaned what needed to be cleaned but not seeing it was a bit frustrating. Overall though, a great video and very useful! Thanks for the time and energy spent sharing your knowledge.

Helpful. I havethe 126LD that's run flawlessly the 7-8 years I've had it, but I've never replaced the spark plug or fuel filter and this afternoon finally started to give me problems. This will help. 2 things I would've liked to know more about: You say clean the carb "whatever needs to be cleaned". Carbs are more complicated than that implies. I would've liked to see exactly what and how. I also would've liked some commentary as you were tuning it, not after. Also mentioning the tools you used to do it. But all in all very helpful. Thanks!

It's very satisfying when you have diagnosed and fixed something

Thank you. This video helped me replace the carb, fuel lines and fuel filter on the same Husqvarna.

Great video explaining each step and even showing how to adjust the idle and adjust to how to keep it running properly. No issues changing my carburetor following your video

Thanks for the much-needed help! You nailed it from beginning to end as I'm getting more trimming done with your help.

Wonfully narrated with detailed information, excellent videography and sound audio mix. Most importantly, a practical solution in less than 10 mins (YaaaaY) Awesome work man. Keep em coming.

I just wanted to say thanks for making this video. Everything that you said and had show worked for me, and now my trimmer runs like the first day I bought it. Thanks so much again.

Very good and informative video. The slant cut of the gas lines was a great explanation. I watched other videos and they didn’t explain that or why. Good explanation of the tuning too. All very helpful and complete.

This has helped me a great deal, from what I have learned from this video is that my problem is the diaphragm. Thanks

Thank you. This video helped me replace my fuel lines. Parts were about $20. You saved me a hundred or more!!

Well done. Including the post-installment tuning process was very helpful as mine performed exactly the same way after replacing the carb. Thank you!

Thanks, helped me out! Knowing that it was ethanol chewing up the fuel line was a helpful detail. Ethanol free from now on!

Thank you for another video, Home Garage. What you showed seemed like a minimal rebuild. I usually use the whole kit because an aged needle doesn't necessarily seal consistently even after blasting everything out with carb spray.

The explanation of the H and L and I screws makes things clearer.... we can hear and see the results and why you did them.

Great video! I had all these issues and followed you step by step. Not only that but followed your tuning and now it runs better than in the past 2 years. Will definitely be checking out more videos of yours when i need to do my small motor fixes. Thant and be way more diligent about maintenance. Thanks again

Great video very helpful it really helped to know the reason for turning each screw

Man, thanks for this vid. Haven't started yet but when I do I'll look for this vid as a guide. Also, showed me a couple more things I didn't know before. Appreciate it.

Just had to do a fuel line replace on my husqvarna weed eater. This definitely helped. Thank you.

I got two of these things for free need these running before the spring lol. Thanks so much. I need a new fuel tank aswell

Very good video-nice to see the damage ethanol does

Thanks for all the information and video

excellent video demo on how to trouble shoot and tune a husky trimmer. Thanks

I am pretty sure this trimmer uses the same engine as my 223L model. I am amazed with how much power this engine has. It probably gets up to 12000 RPMs at full throttle

Exactly what's wrong with mine. Ordered some new gas line, will fix when I get home from my hitch

Another one saved from a future meltdown. Thanks and Blessings!

Thanks for sharing this video with us.

This video was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much

Great video. Thanks for the tips on completing this repair.

Best presentation I've seen.

You put the plastic fitting on the wrong line. Per Husqvarna, it's meant to be a coupling for the filtered line, and pulled up snug against the inside of the tank.

Nearly 9 minutes of excellent advice! My rule of thumb is if you touch the carb touch the exhaust. Those pesky spark arrestors will throw you in a tizzy if you know what I mean. Happy New Year brother.

Had great performance from my Husqvarna weedwackers and riding mowers.

Thank you for this great video. I still have a question. In a couple of other videos, what is shown is that when the fuel line is inserted into the tank, it is pulled through he tank, and the white connector is inserted into it. Then a segment of the fuel line is attached to the fuel filter. And this segment is in turn inserted into the white connector. Then the fuel line is pulled until the white connector is set in place inside the tank, and the fuel line is finally inserted into the carburetor. This is what I believe I saw in a couple of videos. In your video, I understand that you do not insert any connector in the fuel line. As I see, you insert the fuel line into the tank, you pull it from inside the tank, and then you insert directly this fuel line into the fuel filter. And then you insert the fuel line into into the carburetor. And then, it seems that you insert the white connector to the return line only. So I am afraid that I end up being confused, not by your video, but by the fact that there seems to be two different procedures at work here and there. Could you clarify? Can we indeed entirely bypass the insertion of the white connector in the middle of the fuel line? I hope I was clear enough in my explanations. My apologies in advance if I got something wrong. This is the first time I am doing this repair to my Husqvarna 128L that I have owned and used it for about 7 or 8 years.

Thanks very much. You saved me from buying a replacement.

Perfect video. My trimmer is running like a champ

Good video it really helped me to replace my filter and lines thanks

I have like to have seen the adjustments after you installed the new carburetor. All we seen was the screw driver adjusting, but didn't see where you adjusted .

when you show how you turn the screws it would be help full if you turn machine so we can see what you are turning

This is way easier to follow. People be doing to much on other how to videos.

Your video is the best one on this weed eater and I greatly appreciate it but PLEASE keep the beginners in mind when making these videos. We need to be able to see EVERY STEP CLEARLY. WE CANNOT ASSUME WHAT YOU ARE SAYING ! I did not see you connect the wires and I have no idea what screw you turned to get better gas flow. Maybe a series of BEGINNER videos could be in your future ! I did learn a lot more from your video than any of the others on the husqvarna weed eater. Thank you

EXCELLENT Video - Thanks for sharing!

Would like to find the lock hole to replace bump mechanism on a Husqvarna 128 LD string trimmer.

I was so Excited after I replace my gas line it started working for about 20 minutes and then the motor seized

Helpful info man. Keep it coming. Thanks.

Where did you learn that trick on how to cut the fuel lines??? Wow, amazing! Stupendous! ........................

This is gonna be good, I have to replace the lines and carb. Same model. Thanks!

Well I couldn't answer that honestly because I've never had a high-end trimmer like a Husqvarna or steel so I don't know when I get one I'll let you know thank you

if your 128LD had issues with bogging down when giving throttle, change the main gasket. you are welcome.

Sir . You did an awesome job on your video. Very easy to understand what your doing. I have a husqvarna 123L and plug not firing. Put new plug in and no charge. How can I check the coil to see if it's working correctly. Thank you for sharing your video. I will check out your channel. I love tinkering on small engines. I get alot of my projects from the local dumpster. Some are easy fixing or I will take 2 or 3 and make 1. Thank you sir . Hope to hear from ya about my 123L

College level instructions. Thanks. Very professional.

Is the fuel line failure due to Ethonal in the gas?

Thanks for an excellent video!

I love this channel keep up the good work👍🏼

Would be great to see a complete carb rebuild adjustment video.

Do you mean 'fuel line' to be the 'return line'? You begin calling the return line 'the fuel line', as to where to connect the internal connector. Top tube on carb goes to right of the two holes, which is the return. Bottom tube connects to the left which is the fuel line to carb, and it gets a filter, right?. Why does the return line get a connector? Love your trouble starting it!! Been there, seen that bought the tee shirt!

Huqsvarna is a good one 👌 love it ❤️❤️ super nice 👍👍

awesome

cool fix

Does the little hose connectors on the fuel lines serve any other purpose like restricting the fuel flow so it doesn’t run too rich?

Great job 👍

Where can you get the diaphragm for the carburetor that you changed out? Thank you

For confirmation, the left line with filter connects to left side of carburetor, right? When I installed new carburetor, as soon as it runs for a minute it dies. Suggestions?

Great video...very helpful

Mine starts and runs rough, i adjusted the low fuel and high fuel adjustment, but it breaks at idle and doesnt want to accelerate. New fuel filter, and fuel lines. The prime is good no cracks and its soft. I guess just needs a carburetor cleaning. Would you recommend just to buy a new one? If so, where do you recommend? Not sure where to get gaskets to clean.

How come you didn't change the primer/ purge bulb from the carburetor tho?

hi. i have a husqvarna trimmer that starts and runs well when i run it in 1/2 choke. as soon as i try to run it with no choke so can get full power it shuts down. how do i fix this?

3:15 pull the fuel line up till it won't come up any further? Or is that the other line with the plastic attachment? Hope this "old" video is still active. Thank you.

You should have mentioned which is which on the carb hose connection.

I have carburetor without high or low speed screws. Is there way to fix the boffin down on it

Honestly I’ve never seen anyone struggle so much to start a 128 and I own 4 of them.

Isn't it a gasket that goes onto the carb before you put the air cover on? Thanks

I am only trying to remove the carb to get easier access to the fuel lines to replace them. I have a 128c, but my carb does not come out at all (or not with gentle force. All videos I've seen make it seem like it just slips out. Any ideas?

Great video awesome job

Very helpful!

Hello! I have this same trimmer which i just bought a new carb for. Even after buying this new carb, it still wont run. I know it does run though because i tried it with the old carb.

Great vid. If the little white fuel line fitting that mounts to the tank is missing, will it still work?

What tool is used for this model adjusting the carb?

What tool do I need for adjusting the air fuel? I know it's a Phillips for the idle. Thanks!

do one for the 129lk model

Another You Tuber repair shop, says it is the other gas additives. Not ethanol, that messes up the rubber parts. He says use the premixed gas. Sort of high at $19 a gallon.

I have a husqvarna 343r Wacker it's leaking oil how can I fix it?

is this carb similar to the Husqvarna 128ld?

Hey man! Do you have a video on how to adjust the carburator from bottoming them out?

Decent video, but it would have been better to explain what you were doing with the adjustment screws while you were doing it.

i wish u would had shown how to adjust the carb

Which line is the fuel line and where does it connect? Do I connect the fuel line (the one with the filer) to brass port closest to the bulb? Or further away from the bulb?

How often does a kill switch fail? Have two of the 128 ld's. Both have a spark. new carbs, new fuel line fresh premix gas. Adjusted the cabs L& H 1 1/4 turns Neither one will even make a sound to start.

Do you have a fix for the trimmer burning a hole in the air filter?

What size tubing is needed for fuel line replacement?

Great 👍 Video ! What tool did you use to adjust “L” screw ?

Hi. Why do you put he original Husky weed eater return line coupler back on? Cannot you just leave a cut fuel line? Not sure purpose of coupler.

I got a used trimmer from a neighbor. What is your opinion on older Craftsman ?

How come older Husqvarna equipment has green caps while new equipment has gray caps?

What size fuel line does this take?
