viewer found this gas powered blender in the trash and thought of us. so lets see if it can be saved ? and or why it was thrown out in the 1st place.
Do you know what the story is behind it or um? I picked it up this spring yeah and it was just on the side of the road down at the neighbor's house. This was all that was out there and i saw a motor with two handlebars on a stand, and i said what the heck is that thing just curiosity, i brought it home because i figured i would get it running or whatever, and i looked it up. It says party blender on it and uh. It looks like it was left on the back patio a day or two huh yeah or out in the garage or something but cool.
I looked it up. They sold them for like five hundred dollars just to tailgate and blend it. So, like three weeks ago after one of those storms, the ladies out shoveling, the slush off the end of a driveway, i was out my tractor cleaning, so i said i'll take care of the heavy stuff for you don't worry. She says i found the blender top.
If you want awesome there, it is cool and i think that's you know it just locks in and i think they were just sold as a tailgating kind of blender type idea. You know well, it looks like it's going to be a fun project. I'm going to get to it today i mean try uh, oh cool cause, it's like! So if you look inside you'll see the blades are a little dinged up in there yeah, that's probably from big ice or something they put in, but there's a nut that you could take off and straighten them back out, so i think it'll run it pulls over. I didn't check the gas tank.
I didn't check a thing on it, except just to see if it would pull you know. Well, that's the fun part and it does so awesome cool. So you got these little screws. I believe you can loosen and widen the handlebars out because you're a big guy you're, making big drinks, you really want to get torqued out of your hands and then there's your kill switch.
So awesome. It looks like it'll be cool to work on. You know cool, hey, guys, how's it going it's probably been about a month since i picked that up and uh. I am waiting on some parts for other projects and decided to go jump on the gas powered blender.
It's a unique thing in itself. Isn't it yeah? It looks like it's definitely been sitting out in the weather uh. My guess is, you know outdoors on the patio or like a bar that was outside and it just got so cruddy that didn't fire up anymore and probably sat with bad gas, and it is my hope but uh, let's go see about what it would take to Resurrect it if we can, if not we'll figure out, why it was thrown out what failed on it looks like it's. It's wanting us to run a a high oil mix for the first 50 or 50 hours.
That's a lot of cocktails! Isn't it all right? Let's go, get set up and start tearing into it, see what we got. Okay, busy biggest suspect is going to be fuel issues. That's so it's just as rusty it's more rusty on the inside than it is on the outside. You see in there yeah it's looking pretty scaly.
Look it's rotted out, but it's definitely scaly. I don't see any holes. Let's grab that air cleaner off of there we'll pull the plug yeah. I see one of these before we were down the daytona bike week in one of the stands. You know one of the bathing suit babies was set up in a stand making drinks, i wouldn't say that's terrible. I would suspect the carb is conjunctified. If that's a word funky air, cleaner, i don't think it was doing much wasn't sealing. That's a sign of gas coming out of the the carb that primer bulb on it.
It's not petrified, but it's pretty close to the side of cracking. It's not cracked. Already. Still still hold him, let's go put the plug in it.
We'll give her a couple of kick overs. Let me see if any spark go grab a jumper wire, that's a weird feel not sideways. On me hold on. We go grab a jumper wire for ground the ground to the side of the plug, because this is all plastic.
There's nothing to put up against and we'll go right there and see what we get. Let's go turn it so that you can see it. You know it's going to pop off right when i i just hold it like a real man, we got spark nice good. You still have to worry about that part of it uh.
I suspect the carb is going to be an issue, though so, let's at least go dive into it a little bit. Let's go get, they have what there's a diaphragm on the inside of it all the small engine. Stuff generally has a. I don't even want to call the material it's made out of like a fabric.
Impregnated rubber should say that the other way around a rubber impregnated fabric that moves back and forth kind of works as the float ball. But with today's modern fuel with the ethanol in it, it really rots them out and they get hard and brittle kind of like that's why i was looking at that primer bulb. Why is yeah? Why are you fighting me threaded into the gasket? It's got a throttle. Let's see if that slide works, yeah that needle looks really nasty, though, and i've got some corrosion around the center of the meal.
It's a different car, but i haven't seen it with the pin in the center. It's almost like a miniature motorcycle car. Instead of a small engine car, let's go and get some of this stuff off of here, i'm going to get some needle nose we'll get the throttle cable out. There's the gasket! Let's go get some of these fuel lines off one's going to be intake and when's.
The return okay, there we go and we need for that, throttle 10 millimeter and a pair of needle nose push that spring back throttle back, give it some cable a little there's a little detent there. It goes it's a little detent that it falls into. Don't even need the 10 mil leave that right on, let's go over on the bench, we'll go pop. It open, take a look inside and see what kind of shape it's in give her a good cleaning.
Let's operate a little. Actually, i want to take a sharpie and just mark right down the side of it just for alignment purposes. We know how everything kind of came apart generally, it only can go one way, but it doesn't hurt. Those two are stuck together, these little flaps that you see here, they're like an intake and exhaust or little doorways for when the fuel comes in and when the fuel goes out, it's the actual fuel pump part of things. I don't know i'm gon na be gingerly at first and make sure that we're not destroying stuff, because i don't have a carb kit for it and it is tearing the gasket underneath it there. We go. Get the film off we're going to leave that gasket alone. That is on there.
Sometimes it's the flexibility that are in these two that can cause a problem if you have a one that, like runs and dies, runs and dies right. There they'll fail at that point, but we still have a gasket in between these two. I see a screw in the center of that. I don't think that's a screw holding it together.
I think that is just going to be a valve. I'm going to go. Get me a little tiny screwdriver we're going to put some pressure in between these two give them to go crack loose. If we can see if that'll go there goes, this is what that diaphragm should be, that hardens up.
It actually feels pretty good yeah generally, they become hard as a rock, and then they just do not throttle the fuel anymore. Like i said it's kind of, if you take a regular carb that has a float bowl on it. This is pretty much what that is. The needle in the seat is the center of it allows fuel to go coming as it uh fills up.
It blocks off how much fuel can come in more tuited than that, but i'm just trying to give you an example. We're gon na go pull on it. Really quickly see if we can get it apart without destroying it again, it's got don't marry themselves if you tear it. What i want to try to do is get underneath it, because there's no fuel on this side.
The fuel is on the other side of it and that's the area i want to clean i'm going to look real, quick, i think let's go hold on, we might have it. I'm gon na look real, quick and see if i have a carb kit that will fit this. If i do, then i'm not going to be that concerned about it. If i do not, we are going to do our best to go clean from that side of it.
I think i'm going to destroy that. If i try taking it apart, this is a air fuel mix. It was a half one, we're gon na go, call it one out, and i doubt that's going to be on the idle circuit. It's probably on the main circuit, be my guess anything else you want to go.
Take apart this way, the slide really doesn't. If i want to take that out or not, we might be able to soak the whole thing into ultrasonic cleaner. I don't care okay, i guess yep let go see if i have a carp kit, my stash my well organized. What's that one right there go eyeball that one that might be it right there.
This feels like it's an old one, that i took out of something that's it, but it's hardened up. So it's going to be that kit. Whatever that kid is, i sometimes hold on to the old ones. Just in case you need like one piece or one gasket see if i just tore that out or gasket that needed one nope nope they're all the same. Let's go pick a little bit. This looks like it's a bunch of crap around it. I don't know if that's a jet, that's glued in or that's all nasty crap that shouldn't be there. My my guess is nasty crap, that's not supposed to be there.
I think it's just varnished up fuel, so it has a little fuel filter. I'm gon na call it that, which is this screen right here, so you can get that out. I do believe we have another one but try not to wreck anything lost it gone. Never to be seen again, i think i see it on the floor.
It's like a dentist. It says our intake port, let's um run some brake clean through it, and this i would go back in. I think through that side goes in through the diaphragm and down on the other side, it's a primer button which is going to be a a check valve too you get the air bubbles out. Let me go look for that filter.
Real, quick, see it just escape from me, will ya a little bugger all right. Where were we? We were picking not sure what that is right there, i'm going to leave that. Well enough alone, my guess is a check valve or a uh jet meters. How much a jet is a a metering port that lets so much fuel go through.
Let's uh go find the air fuel mix once we're gon na go shoot some through there and that's pretty much the same thing too. That's the idea of that is just like. I talked about with the jet meters how much fuel goes through and so does a mix screw you're gon na choke off generally you're going to choke up how much fuel goes through, but it could be air also. I think we're clear on that.
We'll blow some air through all that i wish i could take that apart, but i don't trust it. If we have a problem we have to go back in. I will, but as for right now, i'm going to leave that alone. There's a very light spring behind here and uh like a needle in the seat.
Essentially what is on the back side of it? If i could show you in a kit, maybe so it's essentially that and that, and then the center of that is pushing on here. So this is what changes the uh your if i was going to compare it to a regular carburetor with a float on it, that is the needle and seat capacity. That's going up and down that's opening and closing that needle and seat right now, i'm gon na take a little minute put that back together. I don't see anything else.
I can probably the q-tip i'll clean out the inside of that bulb and uh. Let's go. Do the get you in the eye, i wouldn't exactly say, a thorough drop, but again, if i didn't take it apart, that would have been hard as a rock and not done anything for us, but because i took it apart, it looks like it was fine. Let's go find out now.
What do you say just for shifting giggles, we throw a little fuel in it without the carb on it, yet a little squirt that might be a little too much well, we'll give her uh yank over see. She fires off probably should have done that. First, just you can kind of listen to the. I think make sure it's not clackling away knocking away. I think i got it ready to roll give a shot cool all right. Let's go get that carb on there. We got to get that gas tank off that gas tank is a piece of crap, so that's really gon na need to be addressed. It didn't sound ridiculously loud.
Neither did it all right. Look. We got four screws holding it on see if you can get them out. It's got a sticker on it.
8, 14 of 07.. So it's 14 years old. Let's go see if we can get the keyline out of it. That grommet looks like it's seen better days too, and that's all corroded.
That's not gon na steal fuel. There's a fuel filter, a little intake fuel filter. It's got a weight on it. Easy tries to hold that to the bottom of the tank.
You see we get for a rubber beam with a tag on it or something probably what we should use is that's really rusty the lights getting here or not. Let's try to kill it a little on the bottom, hopefully coming from the side. I do it. I know i'd say what works good on that rust is a muriatic acid.
I don't know if i have it in here. I do have some somewhere. Let me go see what i can find, rather than see a spider walking away. Judging by the the home.
That was underneath it moving day back at my home stash. I know there's some apple cider vinegar, but i think that just takes really long. That's distilled white vinegar! I used it once before, but that'll work. Let's go grab that stuff and bring it back, and while we're back here, you might as well grab some other stuff even just for future.
Reference with that, i think this is fuel line might be a medical line. You use it it's tygon, so put in a plastic tote just to limit the spillage damage just in case it has some leak somewhere. I took a a nylon glove and clamped it over with the fuel line comes out whether that's going to hold up to astronaut. I do not know and we're also going to go find out.
This is new or used. Stuff looks like used to me. We're gon na go right up to the top got ta watch that breathing and the fumes of this stuff too. It's nasty now, i think, we're over full we're just gon na have to let her rip there.
We go so i'm looking at that stuff and smelling it, and i have a feeling, that's the same as that, just in the other container that smells just like the vinegar that's coming out of there whoops, i was probably meant to go. You know clean it up and throw it away or whatever it was, but that's why i'm not getting any kind of action out of that. That really should be really kind of be happening fairly quickly, and i don't see anything happening, hey well. That was a fail on my part, but to redeem myself i got a new jug of it, so you can go. Take this, pour it back in and we'll pretend it never happened. So happens you don't label stuff, the vinegar will work, it's just that. It's so diluted that it doesn't have much performance to it and time it takes a really long time for it actually to function. I think i remember doing this on one of the mo it was the one of the mopeds.
I think we tried doing the tank that the tank was part of the frame you couldn't take it off. I think that's what we used that on and i let it sit for. I think it was like two or three weeks. I just didn't cut it all right.
Let's go try this again with some new hey back over by the machine. Let's go look into its operation a little bit better. I want to see what that does if it's direct drive right. So that's not turning at all.
Let's go grab a big screwdriver. There may be the problem. That does not turn. I wonder if it has a clutch, that's kind of boogered up.
Let's go operate a little bit. Let's um take these four allen heads out, you know what, before we go, do that let's go dump a little bit more fuel in it, we'll fire it up again, we'll see if this spins or not see, if there's an issue, possibly with the the clutch of It might be able to get away with getting a little shot right in the intake there and see. If that turns yeah, i think we found a problem why it was thrown out. It stopped mixing all right.
Let's go dig into this and see what's underneath here for a clutch, especially after taking that carp apart and not seeing anything really, you know detrimental, i knew it was metric. Why am i going this standard pack? You think that one too big come on. I would think it would have like a setup kind of like a uh, a better string, trimmer that are again judging by how much rust is on the handlebars. I wonder if um it sat up and it all filled up the water on the inside of it and the inside of it just got locked up from that.
My guess is the whole motor is going to fall out from underneath that is locked up solid, so yeah looks like it goes into a clutch hit the pull start real, quick. Let me hit that with a sharpie, so you can see it. Let's give that a tug and see if it turns out around now so there's even a clutch lower than that, because that's still not turning. Oh you got this.
Let's go see if this will turn that's locked up all right, so the project just got more interesting. Let's um, i see four more underneath there. What are they kind of look like phillips but they're? Probably not, let's go see if there gis yeah, i'm gon na go find a better fitting screwdriver, that's not doing it and uh. If you get that out, we got ta, go, look down below and see what there is for a clutch underneath there there you go regular clutch and that's locked up on the ground there.
It just goes a little bit of love she's a tad growly, though you can see where water has gotten down inside there. Let's go blow that out with compressed air and we'll soak some oil inside there. How does that motor look? What happens is as the motor rubs up these shoes will expand as the rpms come up. These shoes will expand catch that drum and start spinning that drum so at an idle. It's really not doing anything as you rev it up. It grabs seems, like you know, any mini bike, clutch setup, centrifugal clutch. These might be seized too. They might be seized on pivot points.
Let's go jam a screwdriver in there see if they'll move that one moves as long as they return to yeah. They seem to be okay. Let's go do a little bit of love to those bearings, so you can get them to come back. If not, i have to take them out and possibly replace them looks it definitely was flooded with water huh.
Let's blow some of that rust out of there first get rid of the crap. Let that work its way down inside there was a breakaway she's, a little growly when it growls like that. That's getting better, though huh definitely working its way in. Sometimes you can pop the race out a little dust cover that one's metal you can get.
Those dust covers out and uh get right to the bearings and wash them. I believe that's going to have two bearings and then probably one right there and one maybe down about three quarters of an inch which i don't think we're getting anything on right now, i'll. Let that one sit. This is the one that's really going to be an issue, though compressed air.
Again, let's go get in there. We end up taking this one right apart, taking the bearings right out of it, i'm sure we can find bearings for it, but what i can do to hook onto the bottom of that. Let me go see what i can find to lock into the bottom. Some kind of something something to turn it, give it something: a little spin on got a piece of flat stock, see what that does give us a little bit more sticking out the bottom.
That's a good sign or not. That's tight. I don't think the one that's facing us is the one that's at issue. I think it's going to be the one on the other side worker a little bit, because was this facing upward or downward? Do you remember there? It goes yeah she's going around crunchy, though, if i go backwards it locks up.
Sometimes you ride back over the rest. Call me a liar there. She is. That is what that's supposed to be silent.
Let's um get that snap ring off of there. Let's see if we can get down to that lower bearing, i think, that's the one that needs a bunch of love. I think this one might be: okay, yeah, that's not gon na happen long for this world. I think that'll tap right out of there.
Of course not i don't want to beat the end of that up. Let's try, uh, i think it's coming up. You think i'm driving into the bench locating pin fill out yeah, it's not moving. Hmm, that's not going to do us any good. It has to go out that way, throw the heat on, but we're going to cook it. We could press on it too, but i'm afraid of cracking stuff. I might just put it. I might put it in the uh parts washer and we'll let the fluid kind of soak, like you know, submerge it so that this cavity fills up.
It's still not ideal, though we got to get into the bearing until the rust is kicking out of that one. I'm not spinning it. We got to kind of do the same for the uh, the lower one. Let me go screw around a little bit.
I'm going to get something to lay on top here, like a piece of copper or brass, we'll give her a couple more taps and see if we can get it to move the other thing too. It's not really good to hit across a bearing, not that these are in good shape. It moved some we're lower than the snap ring we're committed. Now, at least we should there be.
Is it's all one bearing so our issue is just the one that is there. Let's go get that snap ring out we'll take that bearing right out of there and i need the pliers to go. The other way see. It's got the same motion, some of them.
You could switch around now it does the opposite. Now it squeezes it together. This i'm gon na go. Take this whole thing and soak it right in oil.
Actually just go blow it out with an air gun, the more you can get more of the crap you can get out of there lift your foot there. You go what a crap you can get out of there better off. You are also just kind of what happens. Is you get a piece of crud or rust in there and it makes a scratch and that scratch makes a scratch and it keeps going over and over itself, and those scratches are that white noise that you hear that growling is a ball with damage on it.
Going over a race with damage on it or debris, so you get all the debris off of them. This guy's pretty cooked, but he said sometimes you could pop the seal out of the side of it. I don't know if you could do that. One on this wait for the compressor to turn off.
Of course, at the house i have a tool box, that's full of like bearings and bushings. I don't have that here. Nothing, i don't mind. Taking a ride again grab a coffee but there's a number on the bearing it's like 6.
2. 0. 2 z. This is the one i'm going to stab myself in the finger trying to get this out.
That's not gon na come out of there. The plastic ones come out pretty easy, let's get those handlebars off and we can clean some of that hardware. Up not adjustable, looks like it's just for maybe shipping, probably the box that it came in. If you do the same for the the throttle side, the plastic is going to strip out before the threads turn there.
We go yep good. I thought that was going to turn in there then out of the way baby phillips, that's the kill switch. I think this is probably like a just like a regular bicycle neck. We have a couple screws from underneath that pinch it down. We can take this off and we'll get that off, maybe wire wheel, those handlebars up, let's see, what's got holding four screws they're right on the verge of snapping that one adam there's our prize grab by the antlers. They say: let's go hit, that with the wire wheel. What do you think leave me alone or paint them? Maybe you shoot them? Black silver always looks like crap. I don't know.
If i want to go with silver, they were just painting black. Yes now so i wiped it down. I find that spray away glass, cleaner, non-ammonia, is really good for stripping away any oils that are on it. Sometimes i find even better than waxing wax and grease remover and then missed on a coat.
Let that tack up a little bit, let that sit up for about five ten minutes and i'll give it a good heavy one. I also cleaned that top surface up and i already had sprayed some uh breakaway on the top, so i'm gon na use that for the polishing agent, i think we'll leave those rusty screws in the corners alone. I'm not taking them out the legs. Look pretty good! They're all like a hammer finish on them.
The top is kind of like a satin black. You can see where it had that blue protective film there's still some hanging. You know it's made you supposed to peel it off. I'm gon na throw a friend of mine under the bus right now he had a a welding helmet right now he's laughing.
I know he's had a welding helmet that had the protective film over the lens he's trying to use it his helmet sucks. It still had that plastic over the edge of it. That's right! I've done things like that too. Just try to keep it off a video okay.
They may put a drop of oil. Let's go. Throw some uh go: throw some oil down inside there and it'll probably work its way right into the to the guts of the throttle. She feels pretty good.
Now, though, good as new and round two a little heavier, though i should do it and i'm back in the homeowner's dungeon, because back in that corner, that toolbox is just full of bearings. I do not think any of them are going to be metric, i'm not sure if this one's metric or not but uh we're going to go, hunt and see we weren't going to get that lucky. Where are we we're going to go ahead and see real quick see if i have any ones that will fit that and if not i'm gon na go try to find some new ones in the morning and go from there yeah someday? This toolbox needs to go over there. We got a bunch up there.
Let me make a caliper with me: look at the seam id, you probably should look at the number huh might be able to go by the actual number on it. That looks really close, except for it's got the groove in there for the snap ring, but that doesn't matter okay, another one. We might be 50 of the way there. I'm gon na go search through those see.
If i can find one. Oh, i found one. What did i do with it? It's that box right there did. I put it back yeah, so that one, i think, is the same and just got ta find one more. It doesn't look like it. Oh i already got two. Let me go see if we can find one that doesn't have that clip on it. It's actually the next day.
I didn't really want to let it set this long, but let's see what we get. Let me pour the the acid out get a little of that in your nostrils yeah, but look how clean she is on the inside. I'm gon na go rinse that with water that kind of neutralizes it the water that is spotless. I don't know if we can do with anything with the outside of the tank we just kind of clean it up either we could paint it black like the handlebars.
Let me get that whooshed, so we have those bearings that we grabbed. I believe that is one of them right there, which seems like it would be: okay for the od, unfortunately, not so good for the id and as far as the blender is concerned, you're looking for stirred not shaking, and that would give the opposite of us they'll, Be jumping around all over the place, so i went to the parts store and i was able to find the correct set that goes in there. So we'll go with those we're going to push them in the thing about races like if you're going to go drive. This in you don't want to drive on this surface.
You want to drive on that surface. You don't want to hammer across the bearing surface. Sometimes you don't have a choice, but if you do you really want to do that because that can damage the bearings you put like little flat spots in the balls, so we're like that, i can hammer on that. I'm pushing directly on the surface.
That's housing! The rub so uh and vice versa. If you wanted to uh drive the inside like when i go to drive. Where is that, when i go to drive this in to the center, i'm going to want to put a socket on this surface right here and drive center down into it, so i'm not driving across it or pushing the bearing back out. So i'm going to take a little bit of time, i'm going to go change that out and i'm also going to go change that noisy one out too.
We got two of them and i'll bring you back kind of speed this up a little bit. Shall we both those bearings, are changed out? The bottom half is bolted onto the motor, and these two locating pins have to go on those two locating pins. I think we got ta get up over the hill here. I think we're in now and four phillips screws in it.
They might have been locked sided. I would think with all the vibration. You would do that because there's no like the the bottom, you have lock washers, there's no lock washers on this and it's a tapered fit. I keep an eye on it.
If i find that it's loosening up over time, that's what i'll do i'd rather leave it. Now, without the loctite in case, just in case, you need to take it see if you've apart one that fits a little, you can crank down on. Oh, we got handle bars, we could put back on and the grips. Then we get the carburetor the other stuff. I went shopping for was a carp kit. Didn't have it grommet, they didn't have it fuel line, they kinda had it i'm guessing. That's gon na be fairly close, yeah one out of three. Isn't that great the one problem i do know this fuel line is really not the fuel line, but the grommet and it was in the tank - did not have a very snug fit to.
It was kind of slopping around i'm sure it's going to leak gas there. I'm going to try uh soaking this in hot water and see if it just gets a little bit of its plymouth back. So i'm going to go up heat up some water in the microwave and let's go boil that a little see if it does anything, should be hot enough. Let's pop it out of there see if that softened up pretty good.
These are squishy now, but i don't know if it's gon na pull the lines out. Last thing you want is water in it right get it with a nice clean rag. I think we're gon na leave those lines in there. I don't trust the size of the ones.
I got see how this fits and see how sloppy that is in there, and it's definitely going to be a leak at a fuller amount on the tank. I don't really know what we kind of do to get around that anything you kind of put on them anything you put on them kind of melts with the gas i'm going to. Let that soak for a while worst case, we're gon na have to go with that, and i'm gon na have to do a little bit of searching online everything's all screwed up. There's the middle of the country snowstorm ice storm, whatever you wan na call, it came through power's out.
I got stuff i ordered two weeks ago. I was supposed to be here in like two or three days and i still haven't seen it. So everything is uh on a weight. So, unfortunately, when that happens, when we start working on projects like this, we got ta do the best we can with what we got.
But actually you have something to work with right. You got new bearings. Everything else is kind of easy. You can change it right on the machine just and the part comes in pop a couple lines off change that and what was the other thing? Oh, the carp kit.
If we need it, we don't know yet, if it'll run on that carb and what we can do to expand that or wrap around it, any kind of like teflon tape or anything you go to try to build is not going to uh stay. It just kind of melts away. You need something that is like fuel savvy but popped out of the heat, i'm like what, if i just take it and kind of like stretch on a little bit, will that help us? I think it's too, i think when it cools off it's just gon na harden back up, i'm gon na go. Try that a little bit more see if it gets gets us anywhere.
Let's see what we get, i got an idea and let me know what you think: what if so, we know that the circle part of it's not going to work. You know we're not going to catch tension as far as the edge, but what if we took some like mechanics wire and we wrap it around the outside and we pull the yeah? What if we wrap some wire around here, we kind of pull it upward, so that there's tension and at least the inner lip will be like up against the side of the tank. I think that'll work for us if we just if we wrap it around that'll, pull that space out and the lip that's on the inside will uh kind of just be up against the side of the tank may not be perfect, but definitely be better than what We got and we got to make sure that that sits on the bottom of the tank, so it sucks up fuel all right, we'll give it a shot. It's only dumb if it doesn't work right, you think two times around, maybe heaven get under there. I go one more where it matches up, so you can get one more out of it. They will tie it together. You know: do you want these on this excess? I think that did anything. I think it made it worse.
That's pretty good! We just got to make sure the gas line is sitting downward. Let's get rid of all this crap. I like that. Actually, if we blow in it cover these lines, it might be just fine.
Well, it looks like we got it in a decent spot sitting on the bottom of the tank, a little bit of oil i put in there to keep the tank from flash rusting after i rinsed it out with the water, so uh the coating, the tanks. You know you do like a motorcycle gas tank and you put the coating stuff in afterwards. That kind of happens uh second uh thoughts on that, i think sometimes it does more damage than good. I think i may just try going with just leaving the tanks raw keeping fuel in them see how they hold up compared to the other stuff, because i've had some problems where it's lifted and just made a mess of the tank once it's in here.
It's kind of screwed so we'll see how that works out for us yeah it's going to get some 50 to 1, because that's what i have that should be enough. Let's go see if it takes a prime, that's snow, falling off the roof. It's like raining out and there it goes. Shall we give you a yank, see what we get chokes on iron hole that ain't good.
We got something bound up that turns out it's in the clutch. I got something wrong just when you thought it was safe. It's my comment about loctite and screws picture. What i got screwed up, apparently it's something though huh all right.
What was it still does not turn. I got something bound up on the clutch. What did i assemble incorrectly? That side of the clutch turns so the drum the drum must be hitting something i'll bring you back when that's apart, loosen the screws and pulls over now so yeah. I got something bound up in the drum.
I was almost tasting victory too. It happens when you get cocky, it was something obvious you guys have probably been writing the whole time. You forgot something or missed something. Hmm, it's not blatantly obvious to me. Yet i don't know because that's sitting right on it and i can spin it so no interference. As far as that's concerned, it's weird huh looks like there's enough air gap there. I don't think that is hitting anything up top get those screws out. Do we have the wrong screws in the wrong place? Would they be too long? What would they run into if they run down into there? I think that's it.
Do you think i'm running them down so far that they're running into the top of the motor? It's got to be, which was one other four screws that i not have. Hmm, i'm gon na go. Take a peek see if i can look underneath that little lip there, if you see any dents or scratches that are in there, keep it from turning yep. That's it.
I can see where they bottomed out. There two places there and there one didn't, have a washer on it and if i lost it, i did put another washer on it, but it was more than one that was hitting what was the other four screws that we can take. Is these i have those in the wrong place, you idiot so those there's the missing washer all right. I was thinking because of the taper.
Did they not look like that? Has a taper to it to you back pedaling, but i see a. I see a washer inside there, that's the washer, that's missing, so those would go in there and those a little bit more. A tad bit more snow, slash ice, falling off the roof, we're in there man that looks stupid, doesn't it yeah, but i'm the dumb one. All right we got it, let me go put it back together.
Try it again! Well, there's your problem! Doesn't that look like it should be that way, it's a joke. I do not believe so, but that's how it was and again those uh tapered spots up top. I wonder if they had the wrong screws when they we're making it, because why would it have i make excuses, can't tell why, would it have a bevel there and then down below an area to sit with no bevel? That's the one that i don't need yeah. It's a day later any more excuses i can put on it.
That's all right, so i think we're ready to give her a shot against go, get the air out of the system again chokes on. Can you guys see you could see, give her some gas stop right now adjust that airfuel. Need me a little screwdriver sounds like it's rich. Let's go run it in a little bit.
Try it again! It's good turn on my fingers. Um and murder. Stickle mixer. All right, let's go look into the hopper, get that squared away, i'm not quite sure what went on down there.
She looks a little on the chop. Actually, the nuts loose you can get there without a little nylon spacer. You think just kind of hammer that flat again here's anything going on at the bottom. There good thing they all need to be on the same plateau right each one could be on a different, a different angle.
So if it's trying to chop something each one's on a different pitch, i wouldn't think they'd be all. Even i don't know what is the mixer? What's a mixer like i don't know anyway, i think we just hammer the base of that flat. Maybe so the nut will kind of like lock on it and we'll call it a win anything else in there or if that comes, i think there's got to be some kind of seal in there too right we're going to find out if that leaks, yeah, i'm Going to go just hammer that flat get a ratchet down in there, we'll tighten all the hardware up and see how it does. You can get a couple of rattata tats on that they're still loose in there. I don't know if how much threads there are to go run down, they got ta, be tight. They can't be floating in there because if they're floating they're gon na chew up the key, that's holding them, you know check it a little tighter. That's all! It's got back apart, i think the lock washer it might be the lock washer, it's just not sitting right. Sometimes everything is just stacking up on there, but there's still too much room.
I don't know there might have been another blade. That is missing again. It was loose, so we don't know so. The the nut and the jamb are locking up they're getting run down all the threads, but it just there's too much play underneath.
So i'm going to actually take a washer and i'm going to file it so that it will fit down over the just like. Essentially i'm going to try to make it look like that, so that it fits over, takes up the last little bit of gap. That's in there plus probably support it. A little bit better seems like kind of crappy.
It's probably why it bent in the first place you know and uh see if we can get all that together. I think that might do it. If not we'll put you in there, i think we got it they're not rattling around in there anymore. Now.
The next thing is: it's gon na hold fluid. Let's try some hot water, let's pisses out the other end, please no all right! Let that set up a little bit see how that does. Actually, if i go up to the sink i'll, fill that up about halfway with water and uh, we'll pop it on and fire it up see what it says you see she fires up with no choking. No throttle oh want to make it like a car wash see what that does.
What kill it get back. Um think it's clean! There would be a little bit of a dishwasher action. Well, that's a beer! Now the sink will be clean too huh. If that was only a beverage at least the container is clean.
Now that was fun for cleaning it up pretty good. Let's go fire it up one more time, air cleaners all put back together. Everything is all buttoned up check out the little tornado. It's so stupid.
Isn't it well guys with that? I want to thank y'all for hanging out with me. You're all welcome to join me this summer for margaritas on the pontoon boat. So me so uh uh, you.
Hey I just want to open yours eyes to oxalic acid its sold in a powder for and a 10lb bag is like $20 you mix it with water and once you rinse it ,it will stop eating were muriatic acid real only stops when you really delude it or deactivate with baking soda.
Watching for the second time. I hate being that person but im gonna say its. Acids work better when warm and when done, rinse with baking soda and water to neutralize the acid and it stops at from working. Also good if it gets on your skin.
Smart gal you've got there! She knows when to head out to the shop!
(Hmmm, wheels on the back and sting ray handlebars) for easy travel! I love all the videos! Cheers!
Not that it makes a difference but I noticed that you flip flopped the hardware holding the aluminum part to the table it had the SHCS holding the upper part to the table and the Phillips holding the lower part?oh I wrote this comment before I watched the end of the video ๐ค๐๐ณ
Donโt know if your acid is diluted but the gallon of acid that I have, if I would have left it in there for the day there would be nothing left of that tank! I can take cad plated nuts and dip them in that gallon jug and in five to ten seconds itโs completely stripped off! Maybe I just got it before they started to regulate all those types of things!
That blender is the hallmark of someone with way too much time on their hands! I sure wish I had one. Good video as always!
Thanks Must !e 1.I really enjoyed this video. !!!You made me laugh. I like your good humor when things donโt work out, you fix the problem then you really laugh.
I appreciate your videos mustie but I have to say, that is the dumbest contraption I have ever seen. Lmao. Good job tho, keep up the good work. Thanks for all the entertainment and teachings
Alright mama knows how to get down those drinks looked great! Great video guys! If someone wouldโve asked me if I wanted to watch a weed eater blender be fixed I wouldโve said are you crazy ๐ but here I am 1 hour almost 30 minutes later not sure if that says more about me or you ๐ thx
For rubber into gas product is Seal-All in a yellow and red tube! Itโs so tough it held inside my three wheeler gas tank for about 2 years until I got a new tank I think it would have held another 2 years never used anything that could hold up to gas like this stuff
That little thing cleaned up well, looks new, that's alright. cool …I thought for sure we'd see a couple martini's made up at the end of your video..at least. lol
If you had painted like you suggested the three coats of paint would make it taller on outside and easier to fix.
