so he should be able to use a ohm meter to connect from the frame of the coil and the kill wire tab then switch to find out if it is one or both ??

There is a black wire attached to each of the two coils. Each wire goes through its own diode on its way to the key switch to find a ground in the off position to stop the engine. Understand that a good diode will only allow currant one way. In the on position if one of the diodes was to go bad...

I feel that Bert and Shane are on the right path. There is a black wire attached to each of the two coils. Each wire goes through its own diode on its way to the key switch to find a ground in the off position to stop the engine. Understand that a good diode will only allow currant one way. In...

I have that engine on my log splitter, its great and I love it. Mine would start and die, I left gas in it from the year before so I drained every hole I could drain and put in new gas, same thing, so removed carb and cleaned , same thing, tested with propane, same thing , So I was going to...

Never saw a spindle like that. Have seen a gear on a Onan like that were you use a steering wheel puller and a few machine screws to remove it. and the spindle nut with some washers to press it back on

I have not tried the 75/90 in the hydrogear but tried it it a wore out ford car engine and it foamed real bad . My Case loader uses hydraulic pumps and motor and it has stickers on it that warns to use only type F transmission fluid because the type A will compress and make the hydraulics...

I have unscrewed the solenoid and cut off the bottom so it can not plug the main jet and that make it the same as the bolt they sell to plug the hole . It is already junk so no foul . Before that part we had the bolt and when we were ready to shut the engine off we let it run at a ideal long...

When you say Flywheel key is ok , did you actually remove the flywheel and look ? This is the last mistake I made on a Techumseh , It looked good from the top, new plug, new coil, lots of sanding and cleaning to end up with a sheared key.

To remove the blades the bolt or nut turns the same direction as the blades when they are cutting grass So when it hit the block solid it tightened the bolt super tight , it is set up that way so they do not come loose when engaged, with that said maybe if you take a 3 pound hammer and strike...

My Troy Built RZT with the Hydro Gear drive units did that on the left side, The fan was missing over half the blades, when I removed the unit to change the fan I removed the filler plug and turned it upside down on a 5 gallon bucket, it looked like it had a lot of water in the oil and was real...

I agree with the lack of fuel, next time it acts up loosen the gas cap ,maybe the cap vent is restricted, then change the fuel filter or at least remove and back blow through it into your hand to se what's in it if anything. It does sound like the taller grass is pulling the governor opened and...

I took mine out because it was plugged up ,then mine ran such a high RPM it made my hand itch and almost felt like I was getting shocked . I was afraid it was going to scatter parts and take out my manhood so I cleaned the screen and put it back in. I know on the older 2 stroke mopeds they...

There is a vent plug with a hose barb on it and also a plug ,the plug hole will fill fast , fill it full on the plug hole, they are on the top when laying in its mounted position

You fill it up and it was just under two qt on each side. 20w/50 . Be sure two fill it before you reinstall because there is no access to the fill plug in the frame once installed. I used a electric drill with a socket to spin my pulley and cycle it from forwards and reverse to get out any air .

my oil looked like a chocolate milk shake . I used a 5 gallon bucket to lay my unit upside down on over night.
