Hey Steve I can adjust the other carbs with the special screws just fine but when I went to my echo leaf blower which from the factory was running lean and I took both plugs out and I got the low speed adjusted but I just couldn’t get the high speed. I don’t know if it was because it’s winter but I warmed it up for 5 minutes so if you wouldn’t mind could you make a video where you adjust that type of carb from the video? I already checked for air leaks bad diaphragms and my fuel was fresh. I don’t know if you’ll even see this but I was just curious if you would do that. Tomorrow I’ll try a bit longer and see if it’ll work. It revs out all the way and idles fine but around mid throttle it runs rough so I don’t know.

I’ve been a atv/ snowmobile / utv and motorcycle tech for the last 15 years for Polaris and Yamaha. We recently picked up the echo line and I’ve all of a sudden am getting weed wackers, leaf blowers and chain saws added to my work load while never really working on this smaller type stuff much in the past. It’s been a learning curve that’s for sure and even some I have almost given up on. I’ve actually learned a heck of a lot from your videos on this stuff and beleive this video may have given me the solution to a echo weed wacker I said to hell with as nothing I did could get it running right. Never would I have known about these hidden mixture screws without your help. Keep up the great work my friend. And thank you.

Thank you Steve! You just saved me god knows how much money on fixing my four stroke Dolmar Backpack blower motor. It had the hidden/capped screw for the air fuel mixture. I heated up a screw driver and melted it into the cap like you showed us allowing me to remove the screw cap. 5 seconds worth of adjustment and my blower no longer bogs when I go from idle to full throttle instantly. That was stupid easy to fix.

I don't normally comment but I figured I should on this video. I bought a brand new champion straight shaft weed whacker 3 years ago. It worked amazing for my farm for the first year. The second year though it stopped working after I changed the string out. Wierd right?! After fighting with it for days I set it up on the shelf and left it alone. Pissed off and defeated. Tonight I picked it up and fought with it some more. Figuring that it wasn't getting correct fuel as soon as the choke was off. It would die. I wanted to adjust it but could only find one of the screws (high speed) and it was an A circle type screw. I couldn't find the low speed adjustment. After watching this video I was able to get this weed whacker up and running and I should be able to get it back out on the farm earning its keep. Thankyou so much Steve!

Removing all fear from small engine repair. Thanks again Steve. As an dual engineer and homesteader I really like the way you put these videos together. I have a lot of engines to maintain here, like 25+ at last count. I am trying to avoid professional repair except on my quad and cars. as they are to much of a PITA to bother with. But I like the small engine stuff done here and that is 98% of what I have to maintain. Lot of practical knowledge and some entertainment, in the way I enjoy, as usually there is a beer involved in my engine repair. The other day my Stihl MS250 dumped all it's chain oil on the table and you had a video and me back up and running in no time. It wasn't the plug but the line was dry and needing replacement but either way, I spent 5 dollars and 1 beer and was back up and running. Thank you again so much for all these tips!
@jp-hh9xq 4 жыл бұрын
Oh, and I should add... The local shop in town that I got the part from, for $3.50 told me honestly that they would charge a half hour labor, and since Stihl insists on them doing a multi-point inspection to optimize performance, but I know the saw is running like a charm, it would cost $90 😮😮😮 I said thanks, I am really taking pride in learning how to fix all my equipment on the fly myself, but they were really pleasant as they are in small towns, knowing I will buy more equipment throughout the years. So you say in your videos you like to hear that you save people money? Yep!!! Thanks.

Thanks for the "hot screwdriver" tip. My Echo trimmer wouldn't rev unless the choke was on. I cleaned the carb and the exhaust screen... no improvement. I disassembled the carb, and sprayed it out with B12... no improvement. All the gaskets and diaphragms were in good shape too. I replaced the primer bulb about a year ago, so it's in good shape, too. Once I finally gained access to the high speed screw, I was able to get it to run. It runs great now. Thanks again.

Dude, I love your channel! Thank you for your content. I searched everywhere to find a video that explained this and you’re the only one. I have an old “x-treme” scooter that has a 2 stroke motor on the back. I got it when I was a kid and I’ve taken it apart recently to clean everything and I had to replace a couple things. Well I did that, it ran good for maybe 3 minutes and now it won’t run and when I give it gas, it bogs down. I’m pretty sure I need to adjust the carbs because there was so much gunk in there. But I have the second carb you talked about. I’m about to go out there and get this sucker running! Fingers crossed.

I have a Husky 150BT leaf blower, which after two years' use, started the all-too-familiar symptom of bogging down when the throttle was opened. I checked the spark arrestor and plug, and all was good. This video and others indicate that the problem can be fixed by backing out the high speed adjusting screw. It has a double-stack carb and I can access the low speed screw adjustment as shown in this video, but the carb manufacturer has driven small metal balls into the other ports so users can't do any adjustments that might worsen the exhaust emissions. Like BBs or small ball bearings. There is no way to extract those to get at the high speed adjustment screw. I figured I would just have to buy a replacement carb. On Amazon, the OEM Husky replacement was $75 with tax. There were a couple of dozen other imported "brands" that were similar to the original, but were priced between $15 and $20. They all looked like they were made in the same factory, and customer reviews indicate they were cheap junk knock-offs (little or no process or quality control, lowest possible grade of materials, etc.) So I started asking myself "why are the high speed jets having to be adjusted?" I assume ethanol (I treat all my ethanol gas with Lucas fuel additive) and other contaminants are likely getting into the tiny ports within the carb and the jets have to be opened to compensate. This may or may not be the exact explanation, but I figured I had nothing to lose, so I VERY CAREFULLY dis-assembled the carb and cleaned everything, especially the tiny brass nozzle piece I found deep inside, with a can of spray carb cleaner from WalMart. Once I got everything back together and established fuel flow into the engine, it now runs like a swiss watch. I plan to keep the OEM carb, drain it or run the engine dry before storage, and periodically spend 20 minutes each fall cleaning the carb. FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH.

Thanks for showing the hidden screws. I have a cub cadet which has a real basic cube type which I had to use a hacksaw to cut some slots in to allow a screwdriver to be used.

Thanks Steve for the info! Especially the low speed setting on the zama, I knew about the high speed screw. I didn't know about the low speed screw.

Hey Steve, love the channel. I recently rebuilt a Husqvarna 150bt backpack blower with a Walbro carb that looks just like the one in this video. I pulled these screws out to clean out the carb, but I failed to note how far the screws were turned out by the manufacturer before I removed them. On a handheld product I can usually get it started by seating the screws and then turning each H and L out 1.5 to 2 turns. But I can't seem to find the sweet spot on these jets. Is there a "normal" starting point for these screws? Thanks so much!

Steve, thank you! Going to the adjusting vid now! Q and or suggestion, can you please take some seconds to give us like, a description of the beer of the day per se? That way, although the channel is not mainly about drinks, we or I, but maybe some uneducated on drinks as I am, can get an idea of the taste, suggestions, how do you like one of another, whatever you want or would like us to learn of that drink of the video or, of the day! Looking forward for your classes! And, if you can add a little of history, why not? Thank you brother!

Thanks for the info on the high speed adjustment. Got it adjusted. However you mention another hidden adjustment, I believe it would be the low speed, i.e. idle. Where is it? I see what appears to be a brass plug in the top, throttle control. Is that it? How do I remove it??

I found that a drywall screw works perfectly for extracting those plugs. That type of screw comes to a sharp point and has aggressive treads. Just screw it into the plug until snug and it should easily pull out.

@@StevesSmallEngineSaloon I helped my great uncle take apart a generator today, then later we had a 78 birthday party for my grandpa, and my uncle was bragging to everyone how he'd had a few of my cousins try to help him this last week, till they would just give up on it, compliments like that made it worth it, plus ain't nothing better then talking to the old timers and here their stories. But anyway, off track there for a second, I may have missed it but I was looking for a video on how to remove a flywheel, I wouldn't let him pay me for helping, and he wasn't letting me leave there empty handed, so I inherited a old 3hp snappers, I've been cleaning up and hopefully get running, the engine oil was gray, I won't lie, I believe I can get it now, after watching some other videos, I won't say nothing bad about them, but you go into more detail and educate your followers so much more, just wondering if I missed it, or you had one two many beers and forgot, or you are just saving that video to have you a few more, lol. Hope u get a kick out of this message, thanks again and keep up the good work.

Fish hook for these small plugs. Different size hooks for different applications. If you need the barb closer to what needs to be removed simply nip off some material with side cutters. If this tip has already been suggested I apologize... there is a lot to unpack in comment sections.
@garychandler4296 5 жыл бұрын
Another nice one. As a desperate move, I had some "D" style adjusters on a poorly running carb. I obviously couldn't slot them, and it's illegal in Georgia to sell the drivers (unless you know the shop owner), but I'm cheap, so I used a couple of pieces of stiff plastic tubing, heated the ends a little and pushed them down over the screws. Those two are still sticking out the side of my chainsaw, as a quick, permanent adjuster setup!

The k series Zama barrel carbs have a check valve behind a ss plug under the needle hinge and directly under the white fuel spout , and cannot be removed , i have found that on many of those carbs it will go bad or stop up I always prime the carb with fuel and blow air from compressor through the throat of the carb with barrel fully opened in direction of operating flow and you should see a fuel mist , And also the adjusting needle has a small fuel passage in the needle itself that some times gets clogged

The epoxy is bonded tightly to the walls of the hole, but the plastic plugs are just a pressure fit. Epoxy MAY also fill the screwdriver slot, or may not... has anyone tried?

Love this vid. I have one that I can't seem to find much info on. Only seems to have the one pac man style screw on the throttle. Similar to the low idle adjust. Have looked all over the carb and don't see a second hidden screw. Carb is stamped Ruixing, but the model number doesn't bring that up online. Are there any that only have one adjust screw?
