Once you take the bowl off pull the jets out, smallest automotive wire , strip it and take 1 strand, push it throught all the small holes in the jets, done!
Every video I look up has way too many steps to perform on the beach in the sun. I rowed and caught a couple brown trout? or small lake trout maybe? The motor is now revving out to all hell and then dying. Still can't get it to start or run without full choke. Nobody seems to want to fix it while I'm sleeping. Lazy asses
Lol it’ll be a laker, if you could get it to west Kelowna we could tear down in my shop at my place
It’s honestly a 10 minute job. You just need a tiny wire to push through the center of the jets . Like one wire off a bbq scraper.
I got it apart. Man that was easy. Full of green crust. Had to go get groceries, will report back.
There's no primer ball. I pulled it all apart again and can't find anything. Maybe I flipped something upside down? Found a socket from a neighbor and pulled the plug. Tons of fuel everywhere. Sprayed it out and put the plug back. There's so much fuel dumping it's draining out of those black hoses that run down through the case. Spills fuel everywhere. I'm getting spark. I'm wondering if the float is ****** up somehow? There's that little flapper thing that seems like it's just thin metal, could that have been messed with by accident? I can't even get it to sputter.
Unlikely. When you put it back together, did you tighten up all the bolts? Did you check the little metal clips on the hose ends? This is such a simple carb that you can’t really…. Up, even if you try hard. This is pretty much the same mechanism that you can find on your lawn mower.
So how does the float work exactly? Up let's more fuel in? If I had to adjust the metal tab would I bend it up or down?
Everything is tight. I don't own a lawn mower lol.Unlikely. When you put it back together, did you tighten up all the bolts? Did you check the little metal clips on the hose ends? This is such a simple carb that you can’t really…. Up, even if you try hard. This is pretty much the same mechanism that you can find on your lawn mower.
If this is the case, just spray with carb cleaner or Seafoam and use a small brush to remove the gunk.
I wouldn't bend it at all. I would take the bowl back off. Clean the pivot pin and float sealing area. Give that a try.
Super simple. As the fuel rises, the float travels up and the float needle pivots down and seals off the supply off fuel until the float drops back down again.
