    What model did I just buy?

    From my research is appears the model number tag for the mower should of been on that square plate on the side of the frame in his 3rd picture.

    Sharpening Blades

    The Burr-king are primarily designed for knife making and sharpening. Different models for different purposes. The Oregon blade sharpener version has special design features for setting the grinding angle on the blade as well as the attachment for chainsaw bar rail grinding. The are kind...

    Sharpening Blades

    I used one of these for years until Oregon changed the wheel material or something and started glazing Went to one of their belt grinders which is the oregon version of the Burr-king 760 with the 1-1/2 width belt x 60 inch.

    Running on 1 cylinder

    Have you removed the valve covers to make sure the push rods are still in place and the valves are opening and closing properly. And the piston is moving up and down when the engine cranks.

    Sharpening Blades

    I have been seeing a surge in that exact air lift cracking. sandblasted groove cut into the air lft the past few years. Seems a lot more common than years past. I don't know what has changed.

    Sharpening Blades

    Cinder blocks \concrete building blocks make a good cleaner for grinding disc.

    Sharpening Blades

    Tiger you are having issues with the grinding wheel glazing. Certain blades are notorious for clogging the grinding grit on the wheel, flap, etc. John Deere blades I have found to be the worse. Back when I was using the big Oregon 12 inch blade grinder, I would have to clean the wheel over...

    ZT48 XL Single click when starting

    12+ volts at the battery doesn't mean anything. Need to have it actually load tested. You can have 12 volts at rest and drop to 0 under a load.

    Poulan Pro PR241 Snow Thrower

    Most likely the air intake is under item 50 on the diagram https://www.partstree.com/models/pr-241-961920086-01-poulan-pro-snow-thrower-2014-10/engine-24/ And snow engines don't use an air filter. no reason since if you are blowing snow there is no dust to get sucked into the engine. And...

    Well no more fact checkers....

    That was my point. The thread that I posted and you quoted was posted prior to the judge accepting the guilty verdict and pronounced sentence. So was correct at the time of posting, I am not saying it didn't change at a later date, But at the time I posted was correct.

    Well no more fact checkers....

    In NY state you are not considered convicted until the judge imposes sentencing. So at the time I wrote the quoted post is was considered true. And there is a good chance it will still be overturned on appeal.

    Drive Belt Tensioner Spring Rattle on 2004 Exmark Lazer Z 44hp17ka

    To me it looks like either something is stuck in the groove of one of the pulleys causing it to bounce or there is a burnt spot on the belt that is thinner than the rest causing the bounce. A third option is there is a damaged pulley that is causing the bounce.

    Where to buy OEM belts. I have a Troybilt TB 30 mower, model #13B726JD 023.

    So I did the Napa belt crossover for the OEM belts for the OP and all 3 napa belts are slightly the wrong length and 2 are the wrong cut angle

    Swisher Mowers 1960s

    Had a customer that had one. Vertical shaft Briggs engine, 2 large spoke rear wheels and a single wheel in the center front. Probably one of the easier pushing mowers around.

    Predator 9500 Generator backfiring on shutdown.

    There is a story behind my MST. Back in 2001 when I first became a Briggs dealer my area rep for Briggs was an A--. So his remarks to me was I don't know when I will be able to get you set up for the 4 day Briggs factory school, but if you take the MST test and pass it you will be exempt from...

    Brand new Husqvarna 125B

    I am surprised he can even order that many. I just tried to order one from my Poulan\Husqvarna parts distributor and got the notice can only be drop shipped from Husqvarna with a max of 2 per order per year. It also appears that is the same part number they have always used which is the 21...

    Predator 9500 Generator backfiring on shutdown.

    Actually the fuel solenoid doesn't shutoff the fuel coming into the carb. It only is to shutoff the fuel that is being drawn through the carb jets when shutoff. So if the float valve fails it will still fill the crankcase with gas, fuel solenoid or not. And that includes any small engine...

    Predator 9500 Generator backfiring on shutdown.

    @Old_Paint If you had seen some of the things they do to portable generators as far as wiring you would be going crazy. How about the electric start generators that don't have a battery charge coil to recharge the battery. The generator comes with a separate battery maintainer that connects...

    I am curious of what the compression of the engine is. Marginal compression can cause these symptoms.

    Predator 9500 Generator backfires like a shotgun on shutdown

    I want the positive lead connected between the power side output from the generator and the negative lead connected to the other side of that connector going to the solenoid to check voltage supplied from the windings to the solenoid both for checking for output and that the solenoid isn't open...

    Craftsman DGS 6500 - needs carburetor

    The stuff they do sometimes to prevent anybody from adjusting a carb is crazy. From the epoxy filled adjustment screw area to the Stihl I ran into last year that needed adjusted and the caps were secured with blind roll pins.

    B&S 675 Series Camshaft Problems? Overheat? What did I do?

    it looks like from briggs the 126T02-0521-B1 gets replaced with the 126L02-1005 but you have to transfer the flywheel from the original engine to the new engine and remove the 691921 rope starter and 694849 crankshaft from the replacement engine and install the 392259 rope starter and 694478...

    How do riding mower transmissions work?

    I haven't seen the high/low transaxle setup in years. The late 90's, early 00's garden tractors from MTD (Cub Cadet, Yardman) had that setup. They referred to it as the 14 speed. You had the high/low differential with a 7 speed CVT selector. So basically translated to a 14 forward 2 reverse.
