Buyer Beware! Repair Shop Screwed My Customer With Faulty Aftermarket Chainsaw Parts!

Thanks so much for watching! Find all the parts and tools I talked about in this video HERE! www.amazon.com/shop/chickanic?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_a…

the most honest YouTube site on the internet

The spark plugs can be used for catfish sinkers. Drop them off at your favorite bait shop. LOL Enjoy your work!

OEM Parts are the only way to do things properly! I've made a few customers mad because I won't let them bring me their own parts. If it leaves my shop it's gonna be perfect!

Using the same honest criteria, love to see the Chickanic head up department in Washington with the same results saving tons of money and to get rid of the scammers.

Gotta be careful of knock offs too. Recently bought motorcraft coils for my truck that I got for a good deal. They came in motorcraft packaging and were identical in every wat to real ones, but they made my truck run like crap. My mechanic said they all were counterfeits and the supplier I got them from was not happy either.

Someone once said it's wise to learn from the mistakes other people have made .Because we can't possibly live long enough to make them all ourselves .

Louis Rossmann on youtube did a test on Amazon fuse kits and found that some of the manufacturers (China) did not blow at their stated values. Not even 4 times their value. When saving money costs you money you've been robbed twice.

OEM all the way! It’s well worth the time and effort to get good parts. Learned that a long time ago. I’m glad you are addressing this. Stay away from Amazon and other chinesium companies supplying garbage.

I really like your honesty and content. 😊

Send your knock off spark plugs to Taryl (fixes all) he'll make you a stylish necklace 😅

I bought some new amazon supplied fuel plastic pipes and two of them had bad connections on the end and sucked air in. 😮 Ended up buying original Mercedes ones for my Sprinter van for not a lot more money but ten times the quality.. Lesson learned.

What I learned most from this video: Do not ever get Bre mad! Great videos! Thank you. jim

I have an old Craftsman lawn tractor with a Kohler twin cylinder engine. I forgot to winterize it one year & the carburetor seized up. When I looked into a genuine Kohler replacement, I was shocked. I could buy a Holley double pumper 4 barrel cheaper. Bought a Chineseium off eBay. It still works. If it quits, I can buy 10 aftermarket carbs cheaper than 1 OEM

You are without a doubt, the BEST and most honest small engine mechanic EVER, Bre!! ❤❤❤❤

I have tried some of junk parts . Cars , lawnmowers . chain saws .Time , money and FRUSTRATION . You are right .

Bre, I have to admit, I bought an Amazon carburetor package for my cheapie Poulan chainsaw. Now, I believe I paid a whopping 119 bucks for it back when Hurricane Sandy wreaked havoc her in CT but I couldn't bring myself to pay 60 bucks for an OE carb alone so I gambled on 21 for the Amazon. To my amazement, it tried to start on the second pull and did on the fourth. I admit, I had to tweak the adjustments on the carb to get it singing but being a former racer who is used to carb adjustments, to me, it was no big deal. Your video on adjustments helped me on that, thank you. 20 minutes changing the carb, lines and fuel filter, 5 minutes adjusting and I had close to 2 cord of wood cut from a freshly down black walnut in about an hour, and this is the bottom of the barrel Poulan, a 3314 with the 14" bar. I get it, that import stuff can be crap a lot of the time. Heck I thought I'd be robbing parts from the import to fix the OE, but it's working for now. I know lot's of people, in fact most will have no idea about adjusting and even be a little scared of doing it so I am the anomaly. This is why I love your channel, I've learned a bunch about the small engine world. Thank you so very much.

Great work you do on your channel! Fixing stuff started with me when I was a baby!! Walking home from school back in 1965 when I was in 3rd grade, I found a lawn mower out for the trash truck to get. I pushed it home. I asked my father to help me fix it; he said: "That's impossible, I know nothing about lawnmowers." I tried to pull the rope, but it would not move. I took the entire thing apart and ended up at the piston; I had to knock it out of the cylinder with a hammer and piece of wood. I found a piston ring was broken and that is what locked up the engine. I removed all the rings and walked the 3 miles to Sears. They sold me the new ring for $1.50. I put the motor back together and when I started the thing, my dad ran out of the house to see what was going on. He had this horrible look on his face!!! He looked at the mower, then up at me; looked down at his feet and shook his head left and right. I knew what that means: He thought his entire life was a failure - his little 8 year old child was a mechanic! ... and he didn't have a clue when I asked him to help me fix it. I made a ton of money that year mowing yards during the summer. I sold that business, with the lawnmower and the list of my clients. A year later, I fixed a radio and started a TV and Radio bussiness. longer story.... me and my red wagon picking up broken TVs and Radios. Life just keeps getting easier and easier.

Last year I ordered a carb from Amazon for my 30 yo JD LX176. To my surprise, the connections were backwards. It was a mirror image of the original. I ended up rebuilding my original carb.
