    This was so good and you are a good teacher.

    Thank You for the video. I watched it once then tried it on my mower. Mower is running perfectly now.

    @ninjato1979 This method did the trick, my lawnmower started right up. I ended up reusing the original gasket as it was still in good condition. If some of it sticks to the nut when removed, you should replace it. The gas in my tank was yellow and smelled bad as he mentions in the video. I’ll be sure to run the tank dry in fall to avoid having to clean the carburetor again. Good luck with yours.

    Thanks a million for this video!

    You just saved me some money and these days thats a big deal.

    Regards!

  6. ninjato1979 says:

    Mr. Bauer, When you put the nut back into the center of the carb., did you put a new gasket on it? You cleaned it off and described it as cleaning off the old gasket. When you put it back into the center of the carb. you didn’t say anything about a new gasket.

    This worked like a charm. Saved me $90.00 plus I did not have to wait 3 weeks to get it repaired as everyone has their lawn mower in the shop.

    To clean the main jet in the carb I used brushpicks which can be found in the denal aisle in walmart or target

    Thank you very very much. I have never done this before, but your video gave me the confidence I needed to clean the carburetor. The bowl had what looked like yellow resin rocks inside when I took it off. Now it works great.

    Thank you so much! Lost my dad in Sept 09 and along with him went his knowledge of everything mechanic and my only source. I was able to clean the carburetor and fix the mower, even though I’m not really mechanically inclined.. and a girl! Thanks again.

  11. rickadill says:

    Thank you so much…I used old gas and didn’t know how to get to the carb. Appreciate your video!!

  16. thewatersnake says:

    so many bad videos, this one is very well detailed and clear, thanks!

  17. popomonstor says:

    Thanks so much. i know now that i need to clean the main jet too. i have the same engine as you. Just be careful because that carb cleaner will eat up the plastic float inside of the bowl.

  18. beastlt12 says:

    That was WAY better than a couple other videos out there. Great job, and thanks for posting.

    dude!!! u saved me some money thank you!! my tecamesh would not start. i almost bought a new mower.. i knew it had to be a simple fix,but i didnt know where to start.. thanks to your video, i saved some money.

  22. colbycous01 says:

    @akzuniga your right, but i dont know how. i look here to learn things myself. but all i seem to find is vids like these. there is much more to cleaning your carb than this. i am glad this vid helped you though.

  23. akzuniga says:

    Colby…at least he went through the trouble to produce a video and post it to youtube, sharing with many the knowledge he has, which I must say is very helpful to me. Instead of criticizing, why don’t you do the same thing he did and show everyone what you are talking about??? I would appreciate it and I bet others would to, and you would understand how good it feels to help others.

  24. dwightwannabe says:

    DUDE!!! You just saved me a $70 bench fee. This cured my problem instantly.

    THANK YOU, thank you, thank you!

    Sorry there are so many whiny ungrateful douchebags in the comment section. You just put money in my pocket.

  25. colbycous01 says:

    that was useless, you didnt even clean the needle or seat. there was nothing wrong with either the bowl or o ring. anyone wanting to fix there carb learned nothing but to clean the main jet.
