I have easy to follow and thorough step by step tutorials "do it yourself" (DIY) videos to help you with your broken lawn and garden equipment including snowblowers and zero turn mowers.
I do my best to teach you how to easily diagnose problems the fastest, quickest and most efficient way with real repairs beyond just replacing a spark plug. These tips are for both the homeowner and shop owner.
Whether it be a handheld, two stroke, two cycle engine like a chainsaw, weed eater, weed whacker, string trimmer, grass trimmer, line trimmer, hedge trimmer, strimmer, brush cutter, leaf blower, or four stroke, four cycle units like a lawnmower, wood splitter, lawn tractor, zero turn mower, snowblower, pressure washer, generator or a ride on mower that needs parts installed or replaced, I’m your go-to guy.
My favorite brands of spark plugs are NGK and Champion and are the ones I recommend.
I’ve been a small engine mechanic for many decades and also run my own repair shop so my videos are loaded with tips and tricks that I have learned and want to share with you. You will also find many tool and product reviews from top brands on my channel as well.
I have the largest Small Engine Repair Video Library on CZcams and the entire internet with over 1200 videos, just GOOGLE "DONYBOY73"!

Clever Lawn Tractor Pulley Trick To Save You Time & Money!

Nice to see someone who knows what they are doing great job
Dony once again shows us how to make this type of repair and save a ton of money! He identifies that "Nevr-Seize" as his friend, and I wholeheartedly agree. You can't beat Nevr-Seize. By the looks of that existing shaft, it was dry and barely had any grease. That grease fitting is a clue that it needs periodic greasing. Excellent video!!!
Love seeing zero turns on the channel 🤗
Good info on how to remove a mower deck spindle. Seems pretty straightforward. Thanks for sharing the DIY video.
Great tips sir. My favorite is anti sieze
Thank you! I've not had to replace a pulley yet but this is definitely good info. Made me chuckle when you said "definitely hot"
Awesome tip using anti sieze on the shaft. Great video, thanks.
Well done Don, good until next time.
The "patient" survived even this time. Great video as always from you Dony!
Regards from Sweden
Yes the patient survived even though I did not put it to sleep for this surgery!
I really enjoy Donys videos. Nice job.
Thanks for posting Dony
Gave you a little bit of fight but you got it off awesome job thank you for the video
When I bought my Gravelly commercial zero turn in the book it said to raise the throttle over half way and then engage the PTO. So after moving from Florida to Missouri the dealer told me to get the throttle wide open and then turn on the PTO. I got barb wire caught up in the blades and soon developed vibration. I took it to the dealer in Missouri and as soon as he started the mower on my trailer he said he knew exactly what the problem was. It was the keyway on the crankshaft. He could fix it 2 ways. One would be to remove the engine and replace the crankshaft or he can make an adapter to fix it but he said as soon as it is started run it full throttle and never even drive it in lower speeds. So far so good
Remember it can't be stuck if it's liquid! :D
Seriously, good video Don. Have a great weekend.
Awesome video db73 keep up the great work
it’s always Professionalism at its finest with donyboy73. good job man 👍
Sony, you‘r the Chief!
I guess the other spindle and the idler pulleys were good, maybe replaced before you got it. Wish I had a torch like that, though I haven't needed one yet. Guess I'd try MAPP first because it's cheaper as I likely wouldn't need it much. Thank you, Don. Another great one.
You didn't mention greasing the bearing after installing? I never trust that the factory did a good job of pre-greasing.
I’ve learned the hard way replace the spindle on my Scagg. It didn’t come with grease and ruined itself in about a week.
I dont understand greasing them sometimes bc they have sealed bearing in them.
I hope you added some grease to all spindles. Nice one.
Use grade 8 bolts and nuts for puller😊
I learned so much from your videos 😊.
Great info Donyboy really helpful to me
The Oxy-Acet is hotter than the alternatives you mentioned for sure...and easier to light in windy conditions than the Oxy-Propane or Oxy-MAPP. A MAPP 'plumber's' torch lights easy but doesn't have as much heat.
Nice repair video with lots of detail. I put Loctite 243 on the spindle bolts on my ride-on because it not only locks the nuts on but helps prevent the nut rusting to the bolt in case I have to remove it at some time. (hopefully not but hey 'stuff' happens)
Cheers from NB
It's handy such puller! Nice job as usual and thanks for sharing your work.
I don't know the cost for such spindle but I would have replaced both for peace of mind.
I agree because the other one will fail soon 😊
Customer only wanted that one replaced.
Usually a working Pro is under the gun maintaining a service schedule, but it honestly wouldn't cost him that much time... 🤷🏼♂️
@@donyboy73 of course! Customer pays so no reason to make more than ordered. I was just sharing my thoughts as a logical comment IMO.
Nice fix Don.
Well Done, Man... 😃👍 That's Precisely what Anti-Seize is for ! 😉 That spindle was TOAST... 😳
That shaft sticking up through that cover looks dangerous 😮 9:41
It is dangerous if someone is sitting and riding on that cover.
Why doesn't it cover the shaft with a grease gun size hole ?
Great tutorial, Cheers
TY for Sharing
Thanks Donny
More great content. Love it, Dony
Good work Donyboy.
fire fixes more then youd think! a pullers a great tool to keep around!
As always, great information and video. Did you have to clean up the inside of the pulley with some emery cloth? Like you said, it went on really smooth.
Take that pulley!!!!!!!
I usually just put a crowbar under the pulley, put upwards pressure on it, and whack the shaft with a sledgehammer. I've had more luck doing that than I ever have with a puller. Some people worry about causing damage, but it doesn't matter if you are replacing the spindle anyway, and I can usually do it without damaging the pulley.
Nice quick job👍
That Was Fast, for all the work performed ! 😮 That was IMPRESSIVE. Donny makes it look easy. 🤔
No grease for the new zirk? I dont have torches but i have an induction heater, would that work? Otherwise I'd have to use Mapp gas
Yes ! Induction works a treat... 😉👍
I know sometimes if heat and an impact doesnt work you can shock the pully loose by tapping the end of the threaded rod firmly and itll usually pop free!
Dony, If one spindle is worn out, wouldn't the other one also be a candidate for replacement? Is there a scenario where they'd be subject to uneven wear?
Just a little more O2 to get a neutral flame.
Grease fitting and probably a sealed bearing inside.
I find it odd that, the nut doesn't come with the quill (spindle). All the ones i bought, were included.
Hat's up for the anti seize and, thanks for sharing.
Why is there a keyway for the pulley, do the blades overlap?
So why did it let go in the first place Donny???
Lack of lubrication
Ferris mowers look incredibly durable, just the thing that bothers me, like Billygoat is that they are both owned by Briggs and Stratton. Oh well, at least when it comes to these companies, they do use other brands like Honda or Kohler.
This one has a Kawasaki engine so are you sure Briggs and Stratton owns the brand?
Add a wax from a Birth day candle after you heat it up
Add anti-seize on the inside of Pulley
It’s on the shaft, thus on the pulley lol
so are the blades not synchronized?
not on this one
So you don't have to clean anything before you reassemble it ????????
Did the owner clean it before disassembly? Give me a break
Not an option to just replace the bearing?
Do you like flap disk on the die grinders over reg sanding disk i just got that exact tool and been going to princess auto for disk where you getting yours
Yes they work great! I get them on amazon
Nice job. Did the new spindle come greased from the factory?
Very little grease from factory, I added a bit.
@@donyboy73 Thanks
The spindle might have been over greased. Too much grease is not good.
how so?
@@michaelotoole1807
Too easy to get at the grease zerk?
It creates more heat
@Drottninggatan2017
Possible on a Ferris MAYBE but if you own one like I do that won't happen!
I've found that often new bearings may have been greased but when and how well has me add grease to even new ones.
And with one that bad, I assume you checked the other spindles to ensure they're not on their way out, yes?
Lastly, not sure about in Canada, but you can't buy MAPP gas here in the US any more (not exactly sure why), they now have MAP-PRO, which isn't any hotter than propane as MAPP was, but charge more than propane... :)
MAPP was only made at one plant, I think it was BOC, and they stopped making it. MAPP-PRO replaced it, it's not as hot, but it's still hotter than propane
But why didn't you show how to replace the bearings or maybe repack it.
Because it is not cost effective unless you are doing it yourself that’s why
200 times the proper amount of Anti seize . You must have money flowing out your faucet at home .
You'll never go broke using anti-seize!
Good job Don. !!
