    Hey, thanks for this. The tip about oil coming out the fuel pump really helped as I knew what I was dealing with at that point. Also, telling me I could have the head off in a half-hour was another big help. Bottom line: pulled the head, cleaned everything up, watched your other video on adjusting the valves, put her all back together and I'm good to go. WOOOOOHOOOOO WOOOOHOOOO!! (Luckily, no video exists of me dancing.)

  • @desparky

    Love your work Taryl Fixes All. I've got a 16.5hp Briggs, that's been a bastard to start for years. It had a worn out cam replaced under warranty, but was never right. I've followed all your videos to find valve adjustment was out (worked for a while but had to keep adjusting). Eventually I worked out the cam decompression wasn't working (faulty factory replacement cam had the decomp shaft drilled on an angle), Replaced the cam. Immediately after replacing the cam, the motor would cut out under load, and oil coming out of the fuel pump. Once again your videos were a great help. Blown head gasket replaced. I think it blew after using Aerostart (ether) to get it going. Here in Australia, the local mower shops have been happy to sell parts, but not too forthcoming with much advice, despite the fact I've bought parts from them instead of online. I did take it in to the local shop along the way, but they only adjusted the valves too. Anyway, thanks for your entertainment and advice. I've even watched your videos for stuff that isn't wrong with mine just for the laughs. Cheers mate.

    I think I'm ready to replace the valve head gasket on my old craftsman I got for free.
    I hope the gasket is the only thing I have to replace though.

I checked it out and removed hood and engine cover head bolts were tight block wasn't cracked so I found that it had oil on the muffkin. I have done what you showed and I have almost finished remaking a new valve cover gasket after cleaning the messy oil leak off. THANKS Very Much!!!!!

    Taryl's voice is SOOO much different at 1.25x that I had anticipated, he almost sounds like he could be your neighbor's brother-in-law from Tennessee.
    Keep up the good work Taryl. I plan to use your tips from this and other videos to rebuild the engine on my Dear Juan Dee120.
    Hope to have the results and some of my own "How To" videos to share soon.
    Take care and God Bless

    Wow.....this is straight up genius. Goofy, derpy, comedy, educational genius. I learned to diagnose a blown head gasket on a overhead valve(which answered a mysterious issue with a 1980 chevy El Camino which a 454 V8 engine swap done to it and that it had an issue with constantly bending the push rod, and that remained a mystery, and some one else's problem (Sold it) to resolve, AND I AM ON YOU TUBE TRYING TO LEARN HOW TO RESTORE A 1982 Yamaha XJ750 Maxim which doesn't have a blown head gasket, and guess what......this was the only how too I watch start to finish, Over 30 other video's of people doing a how too involving the same motorcycle I have been learning to fix, and I kept skipping there way to vague and boring that I try to skip the points they talk to locate the points there actually doing something I need to learn get explained in fractured increments so I gotta then watch some body else give there take on how to do it, then someone else, for as many times I manage to pick people to learn from that fail to give feedback on certain in between steps on the task your hear to learn the ENTIRE process of. And I learned how to work gasket magic for something currently not what I am trying to be educated on with a high level of interest and entertainment, and its fun! Can you do one of these for an XJ 750 with a full restoration series, so I actually get the knowledge of my bike that I could only learn about from the people who make you nod your head and back away slowly so you can eventually get to learn what you came to learn from someone else....who suck at teaching it. Its like Bill Nigh the sience guy!!!!

Kinda wondered too if the aluminum pushrod heated up then expanded and was rubbing to create that dislocated guide?
