well welcome back to Steve Ron reviews today we're fix the best I'm gonna show you how to
fix it how common a problem that these hitachi leaf blowers have and a lot of times the same
problem exists with so many different brands I'm going to show you the simple way to fix it how
to diagnose it properly and if you can tolerate their yep down there the carburetor is not there
it's got nothing to do with the carburetor but this particular model to fix it you gotta take
the carburetor off so let's take a look at this today I'm gonna show how easy it is you can fix
your leaf blower for real cheap well before we get started here these are just the pieces
that I've taken off and so what are the symptoms that I had to deal with to fix this particular
problem and the symptoms are very hard starting to start and for most people you know you need
spark timing fuel and compression and of course all them have to happen at the same sequence so
in this particular situation that's happened to me more than once and I'll show you like I'm playing
them here yeah there's a bag of these and so what happens is it's very hard to get started and a lot
of people think it might be a carburetor might be all kinds of things but in reality it's this
part right here that's the culprit right there I'm going to show you how to test it what the symptoms
may look like but you know a lot of people look at these and they would never know that this is
the problem and not getting enough fuel the first thing that I did was just spray a little bit of
carbon choke cleaner down the throttle and way it fired up and I knew for sure it was a fuel problem
plus it's happened to me more than once where these particular items don't last that long I
get about maybe a year and a half to them that's about it so I buy more than one at a time and I'll
give you a close up here and show you what the problem with this one is so you'll know if it's
the problem on your particular machine - okay I got your really zoomed in there so when you
take a look at this and you can tell there's two parts on the back and I'll show you what this one
does you plug this one press it in okay it's not doing nothing right it's not pressing it's
not it's not and I'll show you what the good one it should look like then you go on to this
port here and it's the same thing and if you want to cover both up now we're getting a little bit
of resistance so let's go to a new one here it is here will cover one part up and you get the
resistance now we'll go on the other side you see that it goes in but doesn't come back I'll
put my finger off the end there and that's the problem is you just need one of these so let's
put it on and let's see how it works okay so here we go so I am working backwards from yous guys so
I'll do my best to try and stab this in here and first thing we got to do just got to put
this throttle on just kind of feed it in here like this that's just where it was before and
then if you take a look here you'll see there's a spot right there where this whole pin goes in
so you can close the throttle here imma see if I can do this one hand close the throttle slip
it in it there it goes so it's in there right now tilt it back up put the gasket in there
and so we've got this line right here goes on the bottom in the black plastic one and you got these
other two ones that will feed up here we'll just leave that out for now okay managing here to get
this all together at once so as you can see this is the plate where the bulb goes in and
you got to orientate this right because you've got a short one and a long one
so just put it back in the same way you took it out and you're doing everything
backwards so you got to remember which way you're going in here okay
that's it great great yeah come on now be nice there so you can see how it snaps in
like that okay then you take one line plug it on and then you have the other line here
put that one on now this fits over here and you got to manage these screws so you put
these long well I guess they're bolts and you gotta feed it through the carburetor
and then stab it through one side of the gasket and it'll go in there just
gotta wrangle it in there we go there's one and you just get the other one here
and make sure you look underneath that it goes through their property there
we go right there now just take these up a bit
okay so I'll put everything back together and I'll show you how
this works see if she starts up this time okay let's give her a couple of pumps here
okay guys yeah you got to have some backups all it was just to this little primer bulb and take
a look at your lines make sure they're not cracked or anything but really if you notice
that it's not getting enough fuel just put a little bit of Chokin carb cleaner down the
throttle on the inside there and if she fires up well then you know it's a lock-up fuel so
then you can join me here today that's an easy one to fix I think these were ten bucks for six
guys so it's a quite a common problem these guys take care of you ever seen this channel
