- My Cub Cadet 3186 is very hard to start after it sits for a few days. Let's take a look at the fuel system and see if we can fix it.

Do you have Corn gas.?
What year is this lawn tractor? I have a 2005 LT1046 with a 23hp Kohler Command
I'm late to this party but good work! Just really curious, wonder what some JB Weld would do to keeping those stuck in there?
Ordered those hose-grip pliers, very nice!
Dad would have watched you videos and said, _"He's got more specialty tools than Carter's got liver pills!!"_ Course, he was an old farmer, every stray screw, bolt, washer and nut he ever came across went into a coffee can or mason jar. It took him 3 hours to match a replacement bolt, washer and nut, but he never spent a dime on one in his life! Drove me nuts. He passed last year, I've got all those cans and jars on the bench. I don't ever use 'em, but they're there.....
Don’t change you MO for one bad comment. When there’s 16 bolts to remove, show the first and the last .....then tell the the naysayers to loop that 14 times if they prefer🤪 Your videos are great,
That dog is doing good work. Sure it was a caterpillar this time...but next time it might be a tiger or hyena, and then what!? Nice video.
Or maybe two caterpillars...
In the remote CA canyon where I lived, rattlesnakes often brought attention from the dogs. They don't like them at all! How my two large dogs never got bit I don't know. Usually, though, the dogs would make enough of a racket, alerting us that we needed to come quick. Usually when a snake realizes they are in trouble (idiot dogs not backing down) and they have options for escaping or hiding, they don't coil, but flee. They can't strike when fleeing through vines or thick brush, which never stops a determined dog. I think we just lucked out that neither of them were bit.
@@siskokidd Well you can keep those rattlers! No thanks!

Your "down to Earth " attitude while addressing problems is fantastic. Loving your channel thus far!!
Don’t worry about those jerks who give you grief about your videos. At least you are having a go at it while they play with their phones. Great content keep up the good work.
Hey Wes. Really enjoy your videos cuz of your calming way of explaining things. For the fix, another route can be adding an external check-valve in-line with the fuel pump. Not a "legit" fix per se but should be less money and time. Cheers
I was thinking the same thing! Something like a squeeze bulb like you would have on the gas tank of a boat with an outboard motor.
I have actually ran into that on a factory briggs vanguard engine just past the fuel pump there was a check valve entirely in the 1/4" line to the carb not just one with barbed fittings but actually shoved about an inch up the line and held in place with a crimp around the line.
but... the gory details of how you figured it out are the most useful details!
Heh. Long story short, it would not start so I took the pump apart and found the poppet valve had vibrated out of the bore. Pretty much exactly like I did in the video except I didn't know what I was looking for.
Your videos are very detailed actually, I can repair certain things just by watching you do them. One day I should send you a video on how to remove a Cataract!! Doc Mike USN
I have a 1968 Raider 12HP Wheel Horse. It has a Kohler. We rebuilt it twenty years ago and my dad said it really didn’t need it after getting inside. Retired it to a toy in 2009 but it still starts and runs good. Has been a work horse all the years before I retired it.
@Wes you should do/ show whatever you want Ot is your shop, labor and channel. If people want to complain then how about they make their own. We all are guests and we enjoy you being you.
Wes, I have a 1989 Deutz Allis garden tractor that has a Kohler Command 16 engine. It has almost 900 hours. Other than 2 starters and a fuel pump, it's held up better than any B&S engines I've had. Nice videos on the Cub. Stay safe.
I had a Suzuki sj410 . That keep struggling with fuel starvation .
Eventually I took off the fuel pump and stripped it .
It had “ plastic” one way valves inside .
Held in place by rubber rivets .
No service parts available.
So had a smoke and a coffee .
I substituted the rubber rivets with stainless steel screws and nuts . With a dab of
Threadlock I had available.
It worked . Never had any issues with it after .
So when the say no serviceable parts . There is always a way .
Love your videos . Great content as always .
Kind regards Martin UK .
Use a soldering iron to carefully melt the plastic against and over the valve insert at several places.
I have this tractor and it has been great for the past 20 years. Just disassembled / cleaned the carb and changed sparks - runs good as new!
I'm not a mechanic, But I saw a man on CZcams weld plastic with soldering iron and a zip tie. It looked like it would hold. Might try that on your problem with the part your installing. GOD'S blessings to you.
I've got a 2004 horizontal command that will be getting a new fuel pump now. The long cranking is making sense. Mine has the crankcase version. The fuel pump has 4 hoses going into it. I keep a can of spray silicone on the shelf, great for spritzing hoses before you push them back on, coating spark plug boots etc. I'll have to pick up some sil-glyde.
I used to have a cob kadet tractor. Mine was an old model than yours they are very strong little tractors and with a little TLC they will last a very long time and they are one very good work horse of a tractor and it will surprise you as to how much work it can really do I got mine used and worked very hard for over 20 years. And I then sold it and it was still working then
My Kohler had 2 of these pumps fain within 12 months. The first time, I spent the $70 for the OEM pump. The 2nd time, I said screw it and installed an electric pulse pump in its place for only about $20. No issues since.
To hell with the negative turds. You do great work. Love the channel.
As you stated, the snap ring is useless. Hose pliers worked well as you show. I expect vise grips would also work.
The engine starts up so easily when it has fuel. What a difference.
Dave.
You just need something that can push on the little tabs. A snap ring is indeed useless.
morning Wes I have a zero turn cub .love it .fun machine. Kohler twin cam ohv.easy to work on. I have a 1988 Sears Wheel Horse with briggs and stratton 400 cc 11hp 3 speed standard trans. That machine was my dads .That tractor is my pride and joy .it gets washed and bath and covered when i am done. New oil and lube end of summer. im the only one that drives and works on it. just painted it for the first time.Same color. Looks new.
Great video, very well done. Never seen a fuel pump design like that before.
I had a guy give me a mower just like that except mine has the Briggs V-twin and he told me the engine was blown. I went and picked it up for the heck of it didn’t really want it but I’m glad I did. I drug it up on the trailer and brought it home I poured some gas in it and try to start it and it started and ran really rough and wouldn’t run much faster than an idle While missing and stumbling and smoking black. A snap the breather box apart and the air filter was completely stopped up as soon as I left the air filter out the engine revved up and smoothed out. I change the oil and put a new air filter in it and it runs great but it needs a stator For the charging system. The biggest problem I have now is I can’t get it to mow worth a shit. I sharpened the blades that were on it and it didn’t make any difference so I put a new set of blades on it Still very little. The deck has two small rust holes in it but I don’t see how that would affect it much. The clutch doesn’t seem to be slipping at least until the battery gets weak the belt looks good the thing has me stumped. You have to mow the yard twice with it to get it to cut everything.
Did you check deck / shaft bearings and the shafts themselves ?
Even if they're not making noise they can cause that problem.
Also check the pulley surfaces for rubber build up.
Take a cone stone hone on a dremmel tool and lightly rough up the belt surface area on the pulleys.
Most likely the belt is slipping or it's a combination of both of those issues.
Also install a new belt.
NOT a Chinese after market.
Sometimes NAPA stocks a belt that'll work.
They had a really good quality Gates belt that worked perfectly for my 1972 Wheel Horse Commander I had back in 2013.
I gave it to a very good friend of my Wife's from her Church when we moved from our house to an apartment due my health issues and could no longer work full time.
I have 800 hours training from a vocational school on small engines and the items they're used on including lawn tractors.
Plus several decades experience repairing them both plus a whole lotta other stuff.
I love the old saying.
If ya want it done right, do it yourself.
I've got 5 other diplomas in mechanical arts as well including Welding Technology that included reading welding blueprints and actually drawing up said blueprints.
Ya should never stop learning till your 6 feet under as far as I'm concerned.
that's one hell of a battery you've got there!
I wish I'd seen this video 6 months ago. I got a very used cub cadet off marketplace for $200 cause I wanted the kohler 18 out of it. would not start - thought it was a carb issue. the carb was PART of the issue(the solenoid plunger was stuck extended) but after that was fixed/cleaned it wasn't getting fuel. This was my first time seeing the mechanical fuel pump, and I quickly figured out it was pumping but as you said not holding. I took it apart and the same issue with the poppets. Bought a new one and bam, good to go. but it took me a while to figure out. great video very helpful - earned a sub from me! FYI there are certain Kohler singles that have this same type of pump on the side of the engine and they have the exact issue with the valves working loose. I had to replace one on a craftsman LT2000.
You sprayed that brake clean, and no lie, I could smell it. Ahhhh that beautiful smell
I have done that same valve cover replacement twice, not due to a bad fuel pump but for the threads on the oil filler stripping out. Top tip don’t over tighten the oil fill cap. The snap ring does work especially when you don’t have the fancy pants hose clamp pliers.
Don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet but the CRC brake cleaner in the green can is the chlorinated stronger stuff. My favorite stuff is the Wurth but it's harder to find in the states since its European made. That fuel pump setup is definitely cheesy. Definitely works in theory but you have to ask yourself what they were thinking when they used plastic to make the body of it, except maybe, "Good, this thing is cheap, and will definitely fail, keeping our service departments, and parts after sales program in business." Lol
Your videos and content are top-notch and both valuable in information, and the commentary is great.
I know, and Kohler has the ,ost expensive parts of any small engine.
I think you have that backwards, the red can has the chlorinated stuff (EDIT, they seem to have sold non-chlorinated in a red can in some places although I read that they have stopped doing that, I don't think chlorinated exists in a green can anywhere), if it says non flammable it's chlorinated. I don't find it much better or worse but I guess back in the old days it meant you could smoke while using it.
@@samthenerf
All the CRC cans that I used were the chlorinated in the red can if I remember correctly. This was quite a few years ago. I don't know if the location of where you live plays a part, but I'm in upstate NY. Now I try to call the Wurth guy whenever I can, or have the need for more than just brake clean from him. They make some of the best stuff I've ever used.
I bought some water based brake cleaner this summer. Now I look for all the warnings and buy that. I resurrected my 2001 Exmark Turf Ranger after about ten years in the shed. It sounds like you're Cub Cadet. It has a Kohler Command 23. After lots of little things I got it running pretty good now. That was a 3 beer video. That is a high ranking Wes. Have a good weekend
3 beers? That's solid.
7:35 minutes of PURE VIEWING BLISS.!.! Best 4 machine screw removal I'VE EVER SEEN.! Hands Down, and 2 BIG THUMBS UP. 5 ***** TO BOOT.! Honestly I agree with all the others who LOOK Forward to your TIME SHARING...! WHATarethe 4 YELLOW CAPS for at the EPILOGUE/OUTRO..?.? And what about PLASTIC WELDING, build up a retaining rim.?.? I remember something about it for motorcycle fairings, etc..? And next time put the "C"clip in a vise.?.? Now that I've had 7 month's to figger it out, smile..AHHH, Fa story Specs, ahhhhhh, fine, fine, fine.
While I have a brand new Craftsmen 18.5 hp riding mower that I use in places where my bagging mower can't reach, I much prefer my old MTD Yard Machine that I bought several years ago. It has a 20 hp Tecumseh engine with twin carbs and a 42" deck. I used it for almost everything until Hurricane Michael hit and I found I was using it more to haul a trailer around to move tree and limb debris for both me and one of my neighbors. I took the deck off, which is why the Craftsman, so I could clear some of the uneven areas where the trees, fourteen of them, had been pulled out of the ground by the storm. That old MTD rarely hesitated to do everything I wanted it to do and weight did not seem to bother it. Eventually, the carbs finally gave out and it landed in the shop to have new ones installed. Age and corrosion had done the original carbs in. The Tecumseh is an orphan engine in that it is no longer being manufactured and parts are getting harder and harder to find for it. When the engine does finally go I'll have to look and see if I can find an engine that will fit the body but until them I'm going to keep running it. I finally did reinstall the deck and added a bagger kit once the land was level enough to mow again. I think, really, it's all comes down to the preference of the owner and how hard parts are to find or shops to maintain them. One local shop refuses to even open the hood on my MTD whereas other shops only repair B&S engines.
Generaly a very good engine. I had a 18hp V twin on a 2042 Cub. Its now my m8's driveway grader tractor. Still going strong. Next is ballon quad tyres for traction. Great vid, been watching you for awhile. Just joined hopped on your Bus.
Why are we watching these videos?
Because you’re a real live mechanic who makes mistakes and is man enough to show them!
Well, it isn't the problem I'm having, but you captured my attention so I watched and enjoyed the whole video. Yep, everything you said made sense except that you forgot the part about snap ring, snapping you in the back of finger then hitting you in the tooth. Snap rings are more apt to hit the tooth than the eye. This was a great video. Thanks for the chuckle.
Thank you for helping us non mechanics fix things.
And there you are, Wes, working on a Cub Cadet wearing a John Deere hat.
Great diagnosis description and repair.Enjoy your vid's Wes.
If you trim around things before you mow you are less likely to hit them. AWESOME job on the mower and using the factory replacement part. Good dog you did not know he was pointing out that the color band on that wolly bear tells you that this winter is going to be cold as h3!!. Need to listen to him also. Now just make some down spouts on a remote so you can move them from your mower. Boring story but if you know John Deere parts you have probably heard of dealer parts or sajac parts in Beaver Dam WI. That started by them buying a brand new unused tractor or implement and completely dismantling it to sell the parts. I was working on equipment there many moons ago and surprised they where tearing apart a new combine, the guys working explained that is how they get the parts they sold. That is a long time ago, I am sure most parts are now just knock off parts from over seas. I look at everything I buy and decide if I really need it by where it was made. I have no issue with Mexican electronics they have awesome factories that I wish would have been built in the north, I do not hate the people just the governments.
You do excellent work West. Forget the trolls and do your thing. Any monkey can take anything apart, putting it back together correctly sets us apart from the monkeys.
Put an in line fuel shut off valve on it and use it to keep the fuel from draining back. Another option like
someone else said is seat the poppet valve and heat the edge around it with a soldering iron and roll the edge over to hold it in place.
Watching you remove those 4 bolts was fascinating, didn't bother watching the rest 🤣. Always enjoy your vids Wes, keep them coming.
I personally like Kohler engines. My last two lawn mowers had/have Kohler engines. And my old mower is still working at my son's house... Thumbs Up!
I would have used "cool" soldering iron to roll some plastic over top of the popper valve. So when the plastic heats up it won't be a bigger hole.
The sacrilidge wearing a deere hat while extolling the virtues of a cub cadet.
18:20 - I did exactly the same thing when I was replacing the fuel pump on my Simplicity mower with the Kohler engine.
JB weld the poppet valve in place, and keep it as a spare. It might last longer then a new one.
In line chek valve ,2$, will fix that every time ,greatings from Romania ,you sir have a ghift ,love your chanel
Good info here. After viewing the video, I would be tempted to just use an inline squeeze bulb to prime the fuel line. Save the old assembly and glue in the poppet with some Right Stuff just for having a spare around
I like the Right Stuff, but I don't think any RTV silicone can stand up to gasoline. Some have suggested melting the rim of the plastic to deform it around the poppet valve. I think that's a viable solution.
Yeah I agree. It needs a touch with a plastic welder. Flat-tip attachment around the rim. It could definitely be "re-engineered" to work.
@@WatchWesWork Or replace with a vacuum type fuel pump or maybe a small inline electric pump. Either would probably be a good bit cheaper than OEM.
had same problem on one, added inline check valve at pump inlet for less than $10, you could also dimple the plastic around that valve with a hot iron the lock it in place
Hmm. I did not think of melting the plastic. That's a good idea. I was looking around for a wood screw to jam in there...
I also used a soldering gun to melt around my check valves to seal/stake them in place.
@@WatchWesWork Could you weld it? ;^{ )
You could melt the plastic with a soldering iron once you push the valve down. Nice seat cover on the cub cadet.
Hi Wes, thought you might be amused by this. I looked up the hose pliers on Amazon US=$36.03, UK=£86.97 + £14.99 delivery! That's over 100 quid all in, plus I would have to wait a month before they consent to deliver. I expect a bit of a mark up for shipping etc, but that's taking the mick! Sadly it's fairly typical of US made kit. It's often easier (and cheaper) to get cheap tat from China than from the US.
Still, thanks for making your videos, I really enjoy them.
Cheers
Owen
Love the circlip indexing tool quality stuff.....crafted in Korea!Keep up the good work Wes!Greetings from St Antoine Abbe Quebec Canada!
That thing is a pain in the ass... I like the idea of being creative and using a 50 cent off the shelf part instead of a custom tool, but it doesn't actually fit well into the holes, and it was a hair too big for my snap ring pliers. Why not make a one-time (two times) use cheap plastic tool that is made to fit? A ring with some knobs on the ID that you squeeze with a pliers?
Been watching your videos for a little while thought I’d go back and watch some older ones-I think it would be funny if you got those beer goggles/glasses and tried doing a little task like this while wearing them 😂😂😂😂
It's good to see you back in your office. What happened to the 2 live feeds ? Thanks for your time and effort in making videos .you make them enjoyable and interesting to watch.
I don't have enough upload speed here to do it currently. I just deleted them since they were a mess. I'll try again some day.
Very weird that the engine wouldn’t start off the fuel that was already in the carburetor bowl even with the old pump. It should’ve started regardless, assuming the bowl is full at the time it was shut down last. That mower is a catch, rarely see the twin command drive shaft cubs anymore. I got 3 at my shop but they are the single cylinder commands. I’ve sold most of the parts off them to date. Extremely reliable and durable mowers!
in case you see this, i had a twin cylinder kohler command 20 that won't start - thought valves might be out of adjustment, but when I took the valve covers off there's no set screw and the plate that contacts the valve is curved so it doesn't look like the valves are adjustable. Any ideas?
@@jeremy888ferris7 the valves aren’t adjustable, they are hydraulic lifters on those engines. Even some of the single cylinder ones was hydraulic but a few first gens were solid lifters. However yours is only a hydraulic lifter system being a Kohler command. What issue are you having?
Wow.. my John Deere zero turn has this same problem. Wander if it is the same fix. Thanks for sharing Mr Wes. God bless.
Cub Cadet was originally an International-Harvester Brand. After the Navistar split, it remained an International brand. They have a good following. I have heard that Kohler Korea builds engines from sub-assemblies sourced from other vendors. Kohler began life as a German plumbing consortium, making every thing from boilers to faucets to tubs, sinks, and the like. They appear to pair up well with Korea and not PRC. But, that's just my 2¢, spend it well.
Oh man Wes, get rid of that Koehler pump & convert it to a Briggs vacuum operated pump. Cheaper reliable pump & won't fill crank case with gas when diaphragm fails. Lots of videos on that new Utubey thing, maybe you've heard of it. Love watching you work
That diaphragm looks like a Holley accelerator pump diaphragm. The plastic didn't creep, it warped and if you want to get more technical, it suffered from core shift. And you didn't show us where you got your tools from, so now I don't know how to fix my stuff.
CZcams should only allow good comments to you as I am sure you get your share of crazies. You have to remember Milleniums grew up in daycare and video games and Facebook.
Had a Cub Cadet w/Kawasaki 17.5 up motor, best running,most reliable rider ever ownwed!
I have fixed several plastic items using an inexpensive 3d printing pen including 2 of the kohler command fuel pumps. milage may vary but it's a handy tool for some situations. my day job is small engines. I prefer using new parts but sometimes you have to make do. I'll be watching. you only really need the crazy ring if you mess up the angle. hokey as the design is it works and doesn't leak the have went to those type pump fittings on all replacement pumps including the ones for the old k series. the casting of the sleeves into the valve cover was because folks were losing the shoulder bolts and using normal bolts and breaking the valve covers.
Yeah I've taken a lot of heat for not patching up the old pump. I wonder how much crap I would have gotten for not replacing the pump if I had patched the old one together. Hard to say I guess...
@@WatchWesWork Everyone has their own opinion about what you should and shouldn't do. and what they would do diffrently. With that check valve out I would have only tried to fix it if i couldn't get a replacement. Everybody has opinions but your the one turning the wrenches. You fixed the problem it works now and you don't need to worry about the old pump failing and having the same problem again. so solid repair and onto the next adventure
Love your videos thank you I'm old but always enjoy your videos thank you
I feel your pain. Just did a ignition replacement and you just can't buy one coil...oh no you've got to buy a new set and strip some wires...
Thanks for sharing Wes alway good 👍🇦🇺🚜
Seeing the poppet valve was lifting up, some JB Weld after a good cleaning, and some roughing up would keep the valve in place.
Thumbs up for removing 4 bolts! :)
This was an excellent video. Thank you! This is exactly why I have probably been having to prime my mower, each time I use it, for 2 years. $75.00 or a simple prime each time with gas, I think I will save the money. 😉 A great video all the same though. 👍👍
Don't worriecwhat others think ... you do axgreat job . Its easy to judge one behind the scenes.
I had a poulan- pro that did the same thing. It had one of the pulse type fuel pump mounted high up on the engine. What was happening was the gas tank was under the seat, so the outlet from the tank was a lot lower than the fuel pump, so when it sat for a while the gas in the hose would run back down the hose so it took a lot of cranking to get the gas back up to the pump to start the motor. An in line check valve up close to the fuel pump solved the problem.
They forgot to tell you about the special tool that you needed to install the special tool.
😅😅😅😎
That pump is the same idea as the transfer lift pump on my Cat D4B. Has those type valves but the housing is metal.
Awesome. I just bought me a brand new club cadet . I love it.
My first experience with cub cadets was a 100 model. I was in seventh heaven!
The most stunned dog award goes to Maxx
In a pinch...you might use a small auto-matic center punch to raise a few burrs on the perimeter of those 2 poppet valve...might hold them in for …..another week..?
I am new subscriber and just wanted to throw you my thoughts and support. You are honest and intelligent and you just are making videos about what you like to do.and hoPe maybe to help others. I enjoy watching them and like your down to earth and refreshing style. Do keep it up! As to the whiners, F’ ‘em !!. Never forget this is your channel and you run it the way YOU like, showing content the way YOU WANT. Keep up the great work, and one more thing your channels growth says it all!! Youre doing it right
I'm a little envious of the power steering - but for my old S10 pickup!
Life saver! Im defiantly trying this i will get back to you if it works for me!! Need to get mine running and sold!!!!
Hi Wes i was saying to myself the carb is dirty or the fuel we get these days has taken a toll on things .... Great video and nice job ... Thanks !!!!
Well the ethanol fuel probably isn't helping the plastic housing of the fuel pump. That stuff eats everything.
@@WatchWesWork ethanol swells the Jeep Wrangler TJ and early JK check valves in the gas tank causing overflow issues. You have to remove them and file them down, or buy a new tank with a vavle that will swell :)
My dealer's price was 170.00 out the door, 12/2023 for the stock Kohler fuel pump and valve cover. The conversion to a Briggs fuel pump was 25.00 for the pump and 2.00 for a pipe plug at my local lawn mower shop. I've never had a positive experience parts wise at Amazon, so I didn't even look there. Prices of parts and pieces aren't what they used to be. My moan and groan for the day!!!
Hey Wes, I had a similar problem with a single cylinder Kohler with a mechanical fuel pump but in my case it was a cheap aftermarket pump and the plastic kept distorting so the check valves wouldn’t seal but the diaphragm was fine, after 3 pumps failing the same way in short order I found some 1/4” in line barbed checks which I installed on the suction and outlet lines... so far no more problems, you may want to give it a try if that new pump fails you down the road. Love the videos, keep it up!
Easy on the starter, they don't like long cranks - Heat build up. Use starting fluid to prime until you can get time to fix it.
Seat looks like my JD.... keeps out the rain water....you use the same sayings as Eric at SMA, I'm a new viewer and like your channel..
Just came across this video and man your cracking me up. "Everything causes cancer in california" you got that one right for sure. Im not going to lie though, I skipped ahead of you taking out those bolts.
Keep up the good work and dont worry too much about asshole's and thier comments.
Good job Wes!
After the suction stroke the pressure stroke and the check valve on the inlet suction is letting the fuel just go back to the tank it's basically just pushing and pulling fuel back and forth instead of sending proper pressure and volume to the carb if it was just the suction check valve is the problem you can get a inline check valve and put in the line on the inlet of the pu6
s&k tools...big money. Enjoying these videos, thanks
I don't think they are too bad.
@@WatchWesWork I have some myself. Top notch tools
That may also be my long crank hard start problem, I'm going for it, thanks!
You go to a lot of trouble for your for us, thank you.
It's starting to seem lately like half the content CZcamsrs are making is in response to negative comments.
Sil-glyde rocks, My tube looks just like yours. LOL
Works excellent on dirt-bike fork-seals as well. Way slipperier than petro or lithium grease.
My Napa store sells a larger tube that's about twice the size of the one in the video. When I saw it I couldn't get the money out of my pocket fast enough!
You've definitely been watching south main auto 😂😂
You can convert it over to a vacuum pump.. gotta fabricate a steel cover w a breather hose nozzle and bolt it to the fuel pump mount. Run a hose to briggs fuel pump and line in w fuel line to carb. Mount it to engine shroud.
I haven't laughed in A long time and you're dog made me happy
Thanks for the video! Ordering the part today and hope I can fix the problem
oh contagious Oliver fuel bug is spreading
I have a 17.5 horse Command in a John Deere L110 (2003). Had it 2 years and replaced 2 fuel pumps. Good engine, but takes forever to tart.
I would probably have roughed both ODs of the valve housings and used a little JB Weld to hold them place. If I encounter the problem that is what I will try.
Crickets chirpin sounds like a cool breeze evening......to have to deal with a stupid snap ring.
I recommend getting a leaf blower and just blowing off the tractor after each mow. It should help the deck last a bit longer so it doesn't have wet grass sitting on it
I use the air compressor.
