Uncle DT's Random Image Thread
My latest "series" that I have been watching is just a channel on YouTube: Steve's Small Engine Saloon.  This dude lives in Canada, eh, and just talks about fixing small engines.  He has saved me tons of money just showing how to troubleshoot and adjust carbs and everything.  Like a couple of months ago I got the saw out to cut up some firewood and the damn thing wouldn't start.  I don't have time so I took it to the shop that I brought another mower to once and they quoted $140 to replace the air and fuel filters, fuel lines, and carburetor.  Add in the already paid $40 diagnosis and it's not worth it, the saw didn't even cost that brand new.  That's when I found Steve's channel and I checked the carb, it was good.  Maybe next time I might just need to rebuild it but even a brand new one is just $30.  But it turns out the fuel lines were all cracked and brittle.  So replacing those and the two filters was about $20, plus the satisfaction of doing it myself.
