    Great video! I would love to see a video on tuning the carb
  • @VideosModellbau
    Very nice, good explained and very useful video! Thank you very much!
  • Not sure what you mean by diaphragm return spring, but inlet lever springs are available from dealers or through tillotson.ie in RK kits or separately. If that's not what you are looking for, check the exploded diagram in the Parts List for your carb model (available in the Service section of the tillotson,ie website) and contact a dealer or [email protected] to order.
  • For the most comprehensive tilly carb rebuild for your old snowmobile HR/HD types, go to my video and watch, I do a complete tear down and rebuild - everything is done. Thanks Tilly!

    Hello Tillotson! This video was very interesting, but can you please make a new one? Filmed in 1080p so we can better see what's going on? This is 7 years old now lol

    dear sir,I have problem with adjusting hl series carb,when I completely close the choke shutter engine start and work idle with no problem,but when I open it the engine working high speed and I had to close it again,can you tell me about this problem please?
  • Is there a guide somewhere online for small engine Tillotson's? I have two vintage Tillotsons on Lauson Tecumseh engines from the early 60's and I cant find a thing about them so I can rebuild or at least clean them up properly . They are stamped E7A and E8A.

    I lost the diaphragm return spring on a carb, is there any way I can get a spring included with a tillotson gasket and hardwear kit? Any advise is appreciated. Thanks Sean.
  • When you say adjust the lever to be flush, how to adjust it? By loosening the screw holding the fulcrum arm? Or by adjusting the spring?
  • @normanwells2755
    Do these instructions generally apply to 45 year old carb models as well?
  • @northerbrewer
    Soak gaskets in Gasoline? Just a sugestion but would mineral spirits not be a lot safer with the same results.

  • @k4rtm4n54
    your ring pressures are too low, so the needle valve can't close correctly, that's why the fuel comes out of your barb ! Sorry for my bad english i'm french ! frenchs make best carburators =)
