Kawasaki FD620D running poorly. Help?!

[gimmegreens336]

Those are clean as a whistle. It was amazing to look through it before and after... I could see a HUGE difference when shining a light though the air jet and looking into the fuel jet. I'm glad to got to take her apart and see how she works.

You helped remind me to show the solenoid clipped off.

This was also how much fuel was in the bowl after idling for a few minutes...?

I had the problem of the float being to close and hanging up on the center section of the carb as well. Did some adjusting and it works well now. Email me if you want to get a little more out of the engine. Easy adjustment to the governor spring and if you're not happy with it its easy to return to standard.

Glad you found that inlet plugged was the problem. I took the carb apart so many times on the first one I had trouble with I thought I was going to have to order new screws. I did everything to it I could think of and it wouldn't run properly. For some reason dawned on me to blow through that inlet and out flew the crap. Walla, its runing good. Had to do it twice cause I'm sure there was loose rubber bits in the new hose between the new filter and the carb.

... I am going to buy a new carb for sure, I'll use the current for parts. ...

Nah, you're good to go now.

If I Second that, does it mean the motion is carried?

I am - for sure - good to go now!

Result: stronger pull, less hesitation under load, smooth turns, and faster doughnuts :-D



I think all I needed was the correct plugs and a clean carb, but I ended up getting: new fuel line, new filter, new pump, corrected valve lash, clean carb, new plugs, new oil and a new-to-me driven clutch (thanks lewis).

Waiting on some videos to upload, we moved a big stump yesterday with the rejuvenated beast.

Everything seemed well, until I found this: (left side rear axle) Get to learn new facets of the machine every day it seems.



Nothing special about the video, we were able to move the log on it's side with 4 grown men. It's gotta weigh 1,000 lbs. (The best part of the video is around 28 seconds, Kayden was mean mugging until he saw he was on camera... then he's a ham - lol)

Quality is terrible here. I don't know why it is so fuzzy, it's a shame too cause little Kayden is knocked out. His head is bouncing all over the place while he's sleeping... lol
