My DP motorhome's slack adjusters seems to have some white color grease in it (later i learned it may be some clay type grease). Before I realized the different grease, I applied 2 short-pumps of red high-temp grease I used for my entire chassis / drive-train. Can this small amount of a different grease cause a problem? Can I flush most of it out by pumping the right grease through the slack-adjuster?

What kind of plastic tape?

Looks like a good fix. I wonder why the factory uses a ball joint instead.

I nearly bought a new one, as it allowed air to flow while disconnected, thanks for this, saved time and money

This took a little time, mostly to refashion a new torsion spring out of a similar wire diameter extension spring, but you saved me $250!!! THANK YOU! 🙂

Sir, excellent information, thank you. A suggested repair, provided there is one, would have been nice. Foul language does not improve the presentation. Tom

Make sure you clean inside of the hose properly after cutting.

That stuff eat your stomach .

Hey is it possible for me to contact you, ur very knowledgeable and i have a few questions, im changing out all lines and hydrolic lines on teco 55 ft, trying to figure out how to bleed system including the 2 main rams

Can you give me info on where I can get a carburetor with a choke… I’d rather try that. Thank you in advance,.. Denny

I also have a Mustang 2060, as a backup machine. I also have to remove the exhaust to replace the battery, which is ridiculous. I am facing gremlins in the machine with it unexpectedly stopping and locking, which sounds like the same problem you resolved, so I will have to see if I can do the same. I don’t mind the T bar arrangement and I haven’t had any problems with the locking pin so far, probably because I am often changing implements.

🫡 ty sir

This happened to my troy built. Looks like the way to go.

Another thing that can throw you through a loop is even when energized valve does not necessarily create a perfect seal. These have no rubber/silicone membrane, just a metal disk against plastic. Some leakage is normal. They're nearly inaudible in operation, drawing ~350mA. Roughly 1/3 that of typical purge valve. I'll admit, this valve's design had me chasing an issue that didn't even exist.

Very easy and cheap fix thank you for the video.... Took only 30 minutes good as new. Didn't what to spend a ton on a 2001 mountaineer tailgate fix 😊

Bullshit! The primer only pushes air into the bowl, no way you could have fuel coming out of the primer bulb!

Now you're talking 💩!

As long as it primes is all that matters. I'm going to try your method.

Jumping the two power leads saved me from having to buy a mini freezer until the thermostat came in, thanks!

Thanks for an interesting video! I am resurrecting a Troy-Bilt 22-inch string trimmer that was left outside unused for years. I had already cleaned it up, checked compression and replaced the primer bulb. Today a Chinesium replacement carb arrived - and the plastic throttle lever was installed facing the wrong way! I wedged the plate out using an X-acto knife as a shoehorn, and it's all back together correctly now. Carb works ok - but still no prime. I will try the stacked gaskets - then your clever trick next.

My light went off when I held the brake pedal down for at least twenty seconds. And beforehand I pumped up the brake pedal for about 5 or 6 times.

This seems to be the same for my 89 ford probe gt. I can blow air but when I supply power I cant blow air though meaning it’s still good correct?

Thanks for the information

I can't believe there is not 10k comments on this video. 😂😂😂

Thank you man, ive been trying to fight this chainsaw for a few months with the same kickback.

I just bought 1 to fix up

Just getting into this hobby...Can you use a 4 prong in place of a 3? I have a original 4 prong that came with the gokart it was only using batt,sol and acc it was not using the ignition prong.. I have now a 3 prong ignition from AutoZone..can the acc be connected to the ignition by itself?

How about a carefully watched Turkey cooker?

I realize this video is a few years old, but I was just curious where you live and do you still have peafowl?

Yes and thank You 😊😊😊

Thank you man, you saved me $$$. It worked

Very good ending!

Question what problem did you had with your bucket truck in order to fix the upper control valve ?

Trust this man, he is absolutely right. I came across one of this exact model but it could’ve been any other cheap saw, with same flywheel manufacturing. Same issue and same problem. Unfortunately that saw hurt my arm a little, now gotta give it few days to heal, sometimes it’s not worth to put effort on crappy power equipment, guess experience help but sometimes we learn the hard way

Thank you!!

Anyone need a replacement spring? 30 bucks, delivered.

I use a turkey cooker and put 5 gallons at a time I bring the temp up to 190 within 10 minutes and cut heat and let it heat oil at 140 degrees till the water is gone I add 1/2 qt of mechanic in bottle form tractor supply usually takes me about a hour to do 10 gallons and 40.00 for additive and iv been doing this for years if I get water if not I put 1 bottle of additive beginning of every hay cutting season iv got little over 7000 hours on my tractor and never have replaced the transmission oil just drop a gallon beginning each season and add change filter so me being cheap hasn’t hurt my old mf 35 and we use it hard in summer and use it all winter have In framed it a couple times and a clutch or 2 but never had to do anything with the transmission

My Anderson three way lock has rust. What do you suggest to use to get rust off

Same problem. I removed the filter behind the primer bulb and taped the bottom portion of the gasket to seal any air leaks. It worked a few months and then the same problem returned and I went back to a couple squirts of starter fluid in the carburetor.

this cleared up a lot of questions i had

How do I check for a coil burned open?

Love your video. My door has been hassling me for quite some time. Didn't feel like paying 200 bucks only.for a broken spring

I thought there might be some examples or her stupidity.

Mr. Skull, loved the video, it's the only one on the entire Internet that I found showing the internal workings of this mechanism. After opening my gear box up, I found a few things to update your video. 1st, the piece you though broke off of your torsion spring was actually the spring which pushes the door latch plunger out. The torsion spring for the lever return is asymmetrical, both arms coming off it are identical. One arm returns the latch handle from the down position and the other from the up. There is an anchor post built into the top plate of the gear box. After searching high and low to find a torsion spring replacement I had to make my own! I am NOT a spring maker but I was able to find .074" music wire aka - stuff springs are made from at the local Ace, $2! Then, I don't have a metal lathe, formed it around a 1/2 copper pipe, finally bending the arms with care on a bench vise. 3 cuts and a blood blister later, I put it all back together and it works, mostly. If any of your views are skilled in making a spring I would love to buy one from them to replace my mediocre one. Thanks again, let me know if you want a picture of the original torsion spring to add to your video.

Or you need an alignment

04 mustang gt I only had one hose is there suppose to be 2 hoses and were do they run too?

Where does the 2 hoses at the bottom run too?

Oh my God keep your dog away from that round up. It will get cancer.

Government emission bullshit.

Hey Thanks. I have the same problem. I will contemplate a bit more before attempting your ideas. I just don't feel I want to be a hero.
