McLane edger carb rebuild - Old Gas strikes again
Рет қаралды 544
Күн бұрынI can't say it enough, it takes 5 minutes to get the gas out of a machine at the end of the year and $50+ dollars to have someone fix if later...

Thank you! I couldn’t find a single video with the exact same Mclane edger as mine. I finally can clean the carburetor and get it running

Cool. I love McLanes, so there are a few here. Don't touch the settings on the carb. A good clean, and new diaphragm usually does the trick. Good luck!

That is a nice one Bill. The Texas rain will probably arrive in Southern Illinois tomorrow afternoon. 🤣

Thanks. We have been getting hammered daily for the last couple of weeks, but I remind myself that I will miss this rain in a month or so.

Somebody in particular loves the laser engraved wood sign making an appearance in the garage set :D

One tip is please include the size wrench or sockets you use to make it easier for us.

@thewiseguy7100 You are 100% right. I am usually good about it, but I will make it a point in the future

Side note, these are pretty much build with 4 wrenches, 9/16 through 3/8 👍

I've never come across one of those Bill that one is pretty clean ! Didn't know about that muffler thanks for the tip !

This one was really clean. It looks like you have to take the whole works apart until you realize the muffler comes off easy

That's a nice rig but I always had to take the carb off to rebuild one. Non-working hands to say the least. You did good but I thought you'd anti-sieze the muffler mount bolts but maybe you did already. I always ended up with galvanized fittings with a 90 and a hot dog muffler instead of trying to drill old bolts out. Happy weekend and stay cool-ish!

I don't put anti seize on the McLanes only because I have never had on hang up on me, that might change one day 🙂 I have a love/hate relationship with them, they are a popular pain in the....

Me too. I close the choke and keep a magnet handy to fish things out.

I believe that the newer ones are equipped with a gas tank above the carburetor so it's equipped with a fuel shut off valve

Now we just need to get people to shut them off. Lol

Thanks. I took advantage of the 5 minutes where the wind went below 70mph. We get 40 inches of rain a year, and it's all in May

1:03 What size wrench is that for the muffler?
@GuysPlayingWithTools Ай бұрын
It;s been a while but I am 95% sure that was a 7/16. It seems that I use the 7/16 and the 3/8 for almost everything on a McLane(or any Briggs motor) and occasionally 1 1/2 and 9/16
