Easy to follow and thorough step by step tutorials do it yourself (DIY) videos to help you with your broken lawn and garden equipment including snowblowers and zero turn mowers.

I do my best to teach you how to easily diagnose problems the fastest, quickest and most efficient way with real repairs beyond just replacing a spark plug. These tips are for both the homeowner and shop owner.

Whether it be a handheld, two stroke, two cycle engine like a chainsaw, weed eater, weed wacker, string trimmer, grass trimmer, line trimmer, hedge trimmer, strimmer, brush cutter, leaf blower, or four stroke, four cycle units like a lawnmower, wood splitter, lawn tractor, zero turn mower, snowblower, pressure washer, generator or a ride on mower that needs parts installed or replaced, I’m your go-to guy.

My favorite brands of spark plugs are NGK and Champion and are the ones I recommend.

I’ve been a small engine mechanic for many decades and also run my own repair shop so my videos are loaded with tips and tricks that I have learned and want to share with you. You will also find many tool and product reviews from top brands on my channel as well.
I have the largest Small Engine Repair Video Library on Youtube and the entire internet with over 1200 videos, just GOOGLE "DONYBOY73"!

What I LOVE about these Canadians they are QUICK & DETAILED, not a lot of BS

[billbray]

A small primer bulb like on a boat helps get gas to carb quick on those John Deeres

I remember back in the day where gravity would magically transport the fuel to the carburetor.

[ramen]

Thank you...gonna try that RIGHT NOW 😏

[micanopykracker]

Oh yeah good refresher point always thanks Donnie from down in the swamp

[chachab]

Thanks… I trying to discover the problem.

Eh I have a riding mower, which it had the same type of pump but I just put it out of order and put in an electric fuel pump.

[jpowe]

A little water got into mine and it's been running funky. I emptied out the fuel tank and I also changed the fuel filter. And it's still running a little funky. Will it eventually get the water out? Like when u get bad gas in your car?

Thanks for the video! I was looking for a video while troubleshooting my Simpson Power Washer with a Honda GC-190 engine that will not start. My buddy gave it to me. It worked the last time he used it. He drained the fuel when he moved and it has been sitting for 6 months. After finding your video I checked the fuel pump and it works. The spark plug fires as it should. I can get it to fire using starting fluid but it will not run. I'm thinking there is something wrong with the carb. Not sure if there is an internal float on this one but it seem like it is not getting gas from the carb to the engine. Any help would be appreciated prior to me pulling the carb off and cleaning it as my next step. Thanks again for the video!! I really appreciate guys like you who are willing to help us all out.

What if you don’t have any impulse coming out of the engine and no suction to get fuel pump to work?

[Moto_Musketeer]

I replaced the impulse line because it was cracked and now mine will not start

[TeeJay]

Donnie..have done this many times in the past...great tip. Do you have a carb bowel nut part number for a Kohler Command 7000 series engine KT740--3011. Lot of of problems with the fuel solenoid....just want to get rid of it.

[Well_I_am_just_saying]

I am almost done putting a new fuel pump on right now. I should have used this method before taking off my old pump. My problem is intermittent. It runs fine for a few minutes and then just stops running. I am hoping that it was a bad fuel pump, but I have not ruled out an electrical issue.

[fredcavanaugh]

No, it's Fine . Carburetor Issues

[carlosberrios]

The fuel out of my pump flows freely. I take the hose oof of the carb and gas flow without cranking
