Item 50 part number 683-04176A sub to 783-04567B

I suspect the anti rotate bracket has come off or not connected allowing the tranny to tilt. Picture of frame to axle mounting bolts kind of show hints of something not correct, like possible cracking around mounting bolts.

My questions: 1) Is 125 psi sufficient compression? Yes 2) Assuming compression is sufficient and given that crankcase holds vacuum and pressure, should I be concerned about the piston scoring? Yes, Piston and cylinder are toast, And cost prohibitive to repair and will prevent any...

Very odd that both would fail at the same time. But will also consider the fact that they may be related. Engine codes would be helpful but it may not have any. Either way is going to require a systematic step by step in sequence diagnostics, not a throw the book at it and hope something...

On the Intek V-twins the push rod will fit through the oil drain back hole from the push rod cavity. Could be the push rod got jammed in the camshaft which broke the gear. And most people don't notice the engine running on one cylinder so it give it time for the push rod to work down into the...

I don't think he is talking about the flywheel key shearing..He is talking about the keyway on the pto end of the crankshaft being broken where the electric clutch mounts. I suspect the clutch was loose and then hammer broke the crank keyway.

I use NO-Ox myself on some items. Use lots of dielectric grease around the shop, just not on electrical connections

I just love when people recommend coating electrical connections with non conductive grease.

Either you have a bad wire connector, most commonly at the battery, but could be were the ground wire connects to the frame, or the battery is quesionable. Something is causing the battery voltage to drop below the level it needs to keep the starter solenoid engaged.

Remove the bolt to the right of the fuel cap and the tank and carb should come off together than you can separate the carb from the tank.

Fuel tank is integral with the rear handle part number 525862104, subs to 537437906. And doesn't come with fuel lines, or any of the trigger throttle handle parts. so those will have to be removed and reinstalled on the new fuel tank assembly or replaced separately if broken Good news it...

Carb not clean enough. Surging is almost related to a dirty carb, unusually in the idle circuit. Since carb engines run on the idle circuit even at full rpm with no load.

Mystery device is a vacuum operated fuel pump

Had a customer that I always said, if you could grow anvils in your yard, she would try to mow one.

And that is the most important thing, and the most neglected. And the people that are not maintaining the air filter are also not maintaining the oil or other maintenence
