The video follows the diagnostic process step by step, confirming low fuel flow at the tank outlet hose, clearing a debris clog with a wire, and then pulling the in-tank fitting to rinse it out. Short on polish but long on practical detail; useful for anyone chasing a similar symptom on their own machine.
Posted by the sbirdranch channel, which appears to be an owner-operator sharing unscripted, hands-on repair work from their own property.
A small wad of debris, likely a leaf, was clogging the fuel hose right at the tank outlet, restricting flow to a dribble instead of a steady stream.
Run a thin wire, like a catheter, up through the hose while it drains into the tank, wiggle it around, then pull it out to remove debris.
The clog was in the fitting inside the fuel tank, plugging the side hole just enough to restrict flow without letting fuel overflow the top.
