I'm in the middle of putting mine back together. It's a pretty simple job and I got my new carburetor, primer bulb, new hoses, and the green hose that is two into one, a spark plug, several port cleaning brushes, and gaskets for the same amount you paid through amazon. Great deal and looks like quality parts. It pays to do a little researching. Good video. Thank you.

Nice video. I repaired my blower backwards by replacing the coil then carb. Both aftermarket kits totaled $38.00. If I can get a few more years out of it then it’s money well spent. If not I always need new items for target practice :)

That fuel tank has a check valve vent just under the carb. If it’s stopped up it won’t run right 😊

Constructive criticism , move your hand so we can see what your doing, also go step by step disassembly and reassembly. Did not see anything about gaskets

great video! I just purchased one of these and its really old and dirty so I will be replacing the carb on it. Any suggestions on how to clean all the gunk buildup around the carb? looks like grease.

they slide over the posts that hold the carb. One goes on before the carb and one goes on after. Then the choke/airfilter assemby goes on. Finally, two nuts on the posts keep it all in place.

The cheap amazon one I bought probably isn't the best for the money. But it worked for me. But gave the blower to a friend about a year ago. I think it still runs though.
