THANK YOU!! The first time I’ve ever worked on a carburetor and followed this step by step. Saved me a service call!
That was the plan dalstar! Lol glad you found this video helpful! Thanks for watching! 👍
Yes good video
I loooove these kinds of garage sale finds!! Awesome video!
Flint Layfield I know man! This guy was just a few streets away from me too! As soon as I saw it I was like, “ I can make a video out of this!” Going to do a few more videos on it too. Stay tuned!
This was a great video. I followed your steps to a T and my lawn mower started on the 1st pull. Great job with the details. Thanks again, as I avoided buying a new mower!
Awesome my friend! A quick fix saved you hundreds! Glad this video helped you! Thanks for watching!
Great video. Thanks, man. I followed exactly what you said and fixed my mower after keeping in my garage unused for 10 years with old gas…
This is awesome news max! Great work getting here running again! Thanks for watching!
I have the exact same mower and will do this over the weekend. Thanks!!
Awesome go for it! These mowers run great with a clean carb! thanks for checking out my channel Jorge!

Thanks for watching Luis!
Okay, I am not so intimidated, now. Thanks for making this.
Hey Molly! You got this! If you have any questions just let me know! Thanks for watching!
Very good editing.
Thanks a lot Nando! Thanks for being a cool fan! 👍
ok...took a cell pic of EVERY little step, will give this a go.... (62 yr old gal tired of nearly paying for new mower in repairs every other year)
You got this MFB! I’m confident in you! Let me know how it goes! Have fun! Thanks for watching!
@@GarageGear Welllll, I took the fan cover off, fan was not changed out, like previous owner told me he did. It was dirty, all bent and twisted, actually. Took of rest of fan housing off and the carb'r looked like the insides of a 30 year frig, all black, grimy, and otherwise shocking. I bet he never cleaned this in his 10 yr ownership. I doubt he changed out the spark plug, like he said he did. I take apart the carburetor and peaked inside - there is white corrosion everywhere, can't pull out the little tube on the inside, and that little rubber seal that should've been there was now mushy disintegrated slime. Awful. I took it to the local small engines shop and we all stared at it together for about 5 seconds and got busy ordering a new one. I'll have to transfer the autochoke over but..now I know what not draining the fuel/winterizing or just poor maintenance looks like. I'll open up my own shop by next year ! LOL. Ok now my keyboard smells like carb cleaner...got to put my tools away till parts arrive....it's almost 5 o'clock!
@@mfb6310 it’s crazy what bad gas can do to an engine. And in a lot of cases it’s just easier to order new parts instead. Usually if some parts are good and worth keeping I save them for another mower down the road. Or I put them on eBay and try to turn a profit some how out of them. Sounds like you had a fun day lol! Great job tearing it apart on your own to solve the problem! 👍
@@GarageGear Ok done. First fyi - I had to attach the auto choke saved from previous carburator. Reattached carb but wouldn't fit right, top bar clamp & whole rod got stiff once I screwed the carb on, finally realized the little hose clamp finger clasps for auto choke tub (underneath, in back) had to be turn downwards, not pushing against back filter wall. Then, it sat perfectly for the finish. Changed spark plug (good thing too) and put in the good rec fuel (versus regular, previous owner)...And she sounds awesome. Next..... snowblower! Thank you for your post!
@@mfb6310 sounds like you got it running perfectly again! Great job! Plus you saved yourself some serious money in the process. Tune ups run about $100 near me. I have some snowblower tune up videos too on my channel so feel free to get some more tips there! Great Job MFB!
Great vid!
Thanks John! Appreciate the positive feedback!
I have the same lawnmower and mine just quit when I was just about finishing up my yard, so I did the same procedure, cleaned everything up as you did and it started first pull. You showed how the Air filter cover falls off I had the same problem it actually got chewed up by the lawnmower, went to buy a new one at True value and found out they made a whole new box and cover because of this problem the new one has two snaps and the box is slightly bigger to hold the filter,The old box was actually made too small so they re-designed it, The new one fits perfect. Also want to say you did a great job making a video. Thanks
Hey Dennis glad you got it started on the first pull! Those air filter covers can be a real pain in the butt once they get loose! Thanks for the positive feedback! 👍
Do you have video on changing the nipple gas filter in the tank?
Unfortunately not at this time Ken! Thanks for watching!
8:49 gasket is reversed. Blocking some passages. Compare it to 1:44
Thanks for sharing
How would you clean that little tube that goes in the bottom of the gas tank and is in the fuel line that connects to the gas tank? I don't know if that carb cleaner would melt the plastic or what? I'm having consistent fuel delivery issues and have even replaced the fuel line. I'm a new subscriber to your channel and wondering also your take on adding fuel filters to mowers that don't have them?
Hey back in service! It’s sounds like you may want to give your fuel tank a look. If it’s dirty inside, it may be clogging up your fuel line even after you replaced the fuel line. Check that first and let me know. I have added in line fuel filters in the past with no issues to mowers that didn’t have them originally. I was planning a video on this with my new Honda. Thanks for subscribing! 👍
Did u check oil and blade? Super vid though
Checked the oil in this video. CHANGE THE OIL IN YOUR SMALL ENGINE WITHOUT MAKING A MESS! Use An Oil Extractor!
czcams.com/video/o3lkmmpQJUg/video.html thanks for watching!
Where do you get your bulk fuel line from if you do check or change fuel line?
Hey Back in Service! Good to hear from you again! If I need fuel line I typically get it on Amazon. Here is a link. They have all different lengths and sizes. amzn.to/3mTZB30 thanks for watching!
I have the same mower with kohler engine and gas is getting into the air filter. Any ideas?
Hey bill clean the carb out completely.! Things are getting backed up and gas is finding it’s way to your air filter! Give it a cleaning and let me know how it goes!
what size socket for spark plug, thanks
It’s either 5/8 or 13/16. Can’t recall off hand. It’s got to be one of those two sizes. Thanks for checking out my channel zero! 👍
Very Good!... 35🐄🦉🏴☠✝
Thanks for watching!
My lawnmower does restart after first time around
That’s good to hear! Thanks for watching Adnan!
It amazes me how ignorant people STILL are to the fact that ethanol gas is terrible for small engines.
There are warnings about this in just about every manual you get with a new machine today. But by either ignorance or laziness, most people just ignore these warnings and then either go online to bash the product, or just get rid of it when it will not start.
Simple maintenance assures you of having a machine that runs and works well for many, many years.
If you must use ethanol fuels, treat them with a good fuel stabilizer YEAR ROUND. Not just at the end of the season. This means adding the stabilizer to EVERY gallon of fuel that you use.
Then, at the end of the season, either run the machine out of gas, or even better........ run it out of gas and then add a non-ethanol gas or engineered fuel such as TruFuel. (Found in just about any hardware store today). And run it for a few minutes.
If you do not have the skills to rebuild a carb like JB did in this vid, then wake up and start doing the simplest of things to AVOID the problems in the first place.......... ;)
This bit of advice to use ethanol free gas has been around for ages. Even to stabilize it or run it empty before storage too! If you’re not going to prevent the problem, expect the problem! Hopefully this video helps a few people out this year with lawn season right around the corner! What are you working on in your garage this week my friend?
@@GarageGear Gonna wake up the riding mower Saturday. Damn grass is growing. 😬
@@paulmysliborski4832 ROCK ON my friend! I’m in that transition period where it’s not snowing and the grass is starting to wake up. Another week or so and the mowing kicks in!
Put some new front wheels on it and you can get $150.00 easy.
Believe it or not I sold it for $150 without putting new wheels on it. Not too bad!! 👍
Torx screw not star
Thanks for correcting me. I’ve always called them star bits lol! Thanks for watching!
Sunday morning - mower will not start - exact as your model. Time to start and stop your video a few hundred times !
Hey John! How did the repair go? Did you get it to start up? Thanks for watching!
Ok very informative, but you talk so fast.. it was like a race tonsee who could clean, rebuild and put back together in 5 minutes or less...and then you try and full screen it, try and get up to speed with where you're at and 37 ads pop up and you cant see a thing, too busy closing ads.. rewind, rewind... eyes aren't as good as they use to be, deaf in 1 ear..Maybe I'll roll it in the livng room tomorrow and put it on the tv... but for tonight it's staying apart
Hey B Parker, I try to get right to the point with my videos that’s why it may appear to be quick. Take your time with it. It’s not a race lol. There’s not much I can do about the ads. CZcams decides those. Let me know how it works out for you. Thanks for watching!
What I like to do is you can change the speed replace settings to half speed or 3/4 speed and it helps me catch more content...
