This gentleman is astounding! I have just watched a few of his videos and learned more about carburetors than I have in years. The information is not readily available on the Internet until I found this gentleman. Thank you. Keep up the great work.
-
First YouTube video I have ever seen that goes into detail of how to replace and repair those check valves! Great information!
-
I feel videos like these are 10% information, and 90% how it’s delivered to the audience. And you absolutely blew this one out of the park! I’ve never seen this way of testing and yet I was able to follow you and see/understand exactly what you were doing! I can’t wait to try this method out myself, well done Tom 👍🏻
-
Great info Tom. You are the only person on the entire planet who can do a good technical video that is easy to follow... on a stump. 🤣😁👍

10,000 TIMES thank you. From West Africa in the bush.

Wow man you live in a different place in the world. Ive messed with dozens of small carbs. My parts guys would call me stuipid trying to find that kit. When a small engine has weak compression, a new carb( carbs also physically wear) is less expensive than a new machine for awhile. Ive never seen internal carb leaks, before the engine looses compression. Very good show-thank you
-
Great presentation and great info. A good usebfor the internet has been found
-
Some brilliant advice here. Your videos have proven to be very informative. Thank you.

Another awesome to the point video! Thank you!

Your channel is unparalleled, and will be a reference for decades. I'd love to see more of these, with more details of how these actually work. For such a tiny cube, they are amazingly complex.
-
Thanks for the video Tom, very informative.

You've put together a great video Tom. Doing it on a stump is a nice touch!

I've rebuilt many of this type of carburetor but have never seen this information before! This is the best information and presentation on a small engine video that I have seen in a very long time. Brilliant! Every small engine mechanic or hobbyist should watch this!
