Tecumseh 5hp Carb rebuild Pt 2

[FrodoFriend]

I am working on a carb similar to this one. I saw one video mentioning the main venturi, whatever that is. I have reopened the holes in the screwn that holds on the float but, and have cleaned out any guck I can find. However, I do not have a rebuild kit, so I am just tapping back in the same disk that I took off inside the tub and will give it a try. If I don't have a rebuild kit, do these cleanups help me? Thanks. KK

i like briggs a lot better lol it not as complicated

[semco72057]

I like the way you explained how to clean the Carburator. I might have to do that on my generator which is difficult to start.

[mantin01]

JB Weld works good for holes in float bowls.

[2100andrew]

hey, i just cleaned and rebuilt the carb on my 5hp tecumsh, now i can't find the adjustments for the carb, you wouldn't happen to know them do you??

[10472112LEE]

The Bottom needle in the bowl I blow in it and adjust the needle until it just turns off. I can't blow any air then a touch more.

Thank you so SO much for sharing your knowledge.

Peace....Love your accent too.

Good job and thanx!

In the last week I've started for the first time in my life to try and work on small engines. Last night (sep 11, 09) I cleaned a carb like you presented. Thank you. Viewing your video this morning has shown me an error on my part that I can correct before trying to fire the mower up. Having just this a.m. learned of your videos, in the future I'll be searching for your vids before I make anymore attempts on lawnmowers.

Again thank you thank you.

[ryanb788]

wow I never seen this video before. I just rebuilt the one for a 6.5 hp same as that motor carb before the engine died check out the video response bro thanks

[bcoverss]

Thanks!!! My mower runs again now!!!

what video program do u use rick

[bigandrich22]

hey rick i got a carb just like that and the adjustment screw that goes in the bottom and holds the bowl on snapped in two and plus the floa has a hole in it. so where can i get the replacement parts and about how much if u know

[RedneckRickem]

Not sure in the US. Here, I go to Laser Power.

[fredlusk]

keep in mind-The deep end of to bowl should go opposite the needle and float hinge,the place where to hole is in your bowl was at one time a small indention so that the float will not stick if there is some varnish build up in the bottom of the bowl. Also I always take a little motor oil and rub it around the bowl gasket it gives it a better sill. The air metering needle is finger tight and back off 1 turn the main needle jet in the bottom of the bowl is 1.5 turns out from finger tight.

For some reason, I can't postb the web address for tecumseh. Here's part of it. tecumsehpower

[quakewarrior1]

lol we'll shut our fuel of??? thats a god damn adjustment needle

[SCRAPN81]

Lol no Rick is right it's a fuel shut off trust me

[quakewarrior1]

my god u should have just bought a new bowl christ. and ur not very good at this, it looks like u struggle a bit.

[Ajaces]

Rick, in the first vid, I thought I saw an O-Ring around the main jet nozzle that screws into the bowl. I didn't see that on the new main jet, did it not come with the kit?

[RedneckRickem]

It doesn't have one. This style of bowl nut has two recessed areas, each with a fuel hole in it.

[TBird100636]

They are still making parts, another company bought the engine side of Tecumseh, the floats are now plastic, bowls are relatively inexpensive, as are the rebuild kits, which include the welch plugs which redneckrickem was hammering in with a punch. Push the white seat into the carb with a similarly sized punch. If you don't the seat can cock and push into the inlet elbow of the carb. Very good video.

[grumpyswede]

any body making clone parts

[chsvt90]

[99minerkc]

Thanks for the carb rebuild videos! Hope you do a video of the carb bowl patch, carb re installation, and an engine start on the snow blower was it? Anyway~5/5 stars :)

[ChevroletBowtie]

Nice,do you like Tecumseh?

[RedneckRickem]

No, if you have a tecumseh, and want original parts, get them,cause they are no longer in business. All the plants closed down.
