Small Engine Surging or Galloping? Here’s the Fix! The Drill Set

Описание: If your small engine is surging, hunting, or galloping, it’s usually a fuel-to-air balance problem, not a bad carburetor. In this video, I explain why engines surge as they wear over time and how to fix it correctly, not just mask the problem.

As engines age, internal wear changes airflow and fuel demand. What worked when the engine was new doesn’t always work years later. In this video, I cover:

Why small engines surge or hunt at idle and no-load

How engine wear affects the air-fuel mixture over time

Why cleaning the carb doesn’t always fix surging

How a precise adjustment to the carburetor jet restores proper fuel delivery

When this fix is appropriate — and when it’s not

Using a small handheld precision drill, I show how carefully increasing jet flow can match the engine’s current requirements and bring it back to a smooth, steady run.

This applies to lawn mowers, snowblowers, generators, and other carbureted small engines that surge after years of use.

⚠️ This is a precision repair — rushing or over-drilling can cause problems. The goal is to correct the mixture, not flood the engine.
