I will adjust the air fuel if it cleans up the idle. But right now it idles great and the smoke comes and goes. It seems to clear up. I need to verify that I have a good quality plug. When I did test for spark before buying the carb it seemed weak to me.
I’ve never found the adjustment screws on any carburetor affect anything other than the start up and idle. I’ve been hearing this idea for twenty years and I don’t understand where it comes from. It doesn’t change the jet size. Good info for sure tho. I will try a different oil. Draining this...
That’s smart. I will use another primer. I’m not to interested in tuning a cheap carb . I think the varnish in the tank is the key. We will see. It was sitting for years. I poured out the gas. But the tank has a way if not letting it all out.
My boys like to play video games on the large AC tv and I like to run the AC ceiling fan. And this small generator is the easiest quieter way to do that. But it’s not mandatory. It’s normally 74 this time of year and 50 in the morning or 47 and I have a wood stove. But my tiny cabin is super...
Messing around with it because I like to restore junk I quess. I have a 4000 watt Champion that I love. But it’s pretty heavy. I have a 12 volt separate wire to the tiny cabin that I recharge a lithium battery fan , movie player and lights. USB plugs and cig plugs. And I have 10 solar panels...
It may have old oil residue in the tank. That tank is not a very direct reservoir. I was thinking of just plumbing a bigger tank to the gas shut off valve anyway. It only runs about two hours or less on a load.
Yes I realized 40 to 1 was the wrong direction shortly after I posted. The spark plug was changed but just some kind of Ace hardware equivalent. I was thinking there must be a higher quality plug. It is flushed. That tank is very small and I have run it a few cycles. The carb may be the problem...
Hello. It’s been a while. Love this sight more than any other. I have an old Harbor freight storm cat 800. I just now got it running again after a long time sitting. I had to install a new carburetor. Now it smokes a lot as it runs. Sometimes it clears a little, but it’s obviously not using the...
That look is very nice, cool and rich. When done in moderation. . It's been years since I have offended someone on the net. So sorry for this. In my opinion you went to long on the burn. It looks like a forest fire sweep though your property. But you no, who cares about my opinion.
The sprayer is probably wore out. However Graco tips **** as well. Try a titan 4 13 . Zinser oil primer is also much better. Maybe just the titan tip from Sherwin Williams will work. Don't thin it. Kilz is already thinner Than water unless it has changed over the years.
