    I should have added I do use bead sealer if that is where I find the leak, after a good cleaning.

    Tyre Goop & Slow Leaks

    I have never reccommend using goop to repair leaking tires. In fact I let customers who are going to use it that there will be an extra $25 fee if I have to work on tires with goop inside. Most repair shops in this area do the same. Everyone who has worked on tires with goop inside them...

    B+S will start but not stay running.

    Slmow, did you read post #8? Have you ever worked on a Flo-jet carb? Flo-jet carbs don’t have an emulsion tube, they do have a main nozzle which provides fuel to both the high speed and idle curcuits. High speed needle controls amount of fuel entering the nozzle for the high speed circuit and...

    B+S will start but not stay running.

    I’ve attached the service manual for your engine. I suggest you review the section on how to make adjustments after rebuilding the carb. If this unit came to me with these problems, I would rebuild the carb, which you did, then go through the adjustment procedure. Two things I would double...

    John Deere JX75 Oil Filter Adapter Kit Question

    At the price of that kit, I doubt that it would even worth adding it to that end. My recommendation save your money.

    What has happened to my Kohler ?

    Two things I would be checking. First pull the dipstick and check to see if it is above the full mark and is if it smells like fuel, if it is overfilled or smells like gas, I suspect that the carb needle valve is not sealing, allowing fuel to freely run though the carb straight into the...

    Torque spec

    Looked through all my Toro material and can find no torque for mounting bolts. When I have bolts which are loose, I normally run a grade 5 through bolt and either a Nyloc nut or nut and lock washer. Torque to about 30 ft lbs.

    Generac/ Dixie Chopper carburetor bleed air jet O-rings.

    Star, you are mathmaticaly correct, but it doesn’t always work that way in real life. To often i’ve seen where real life techs and behind the desk engineers don’t always agree. I’m sure you have seen the same. As i said, 50% of the time reducing the RPM’s has helped me solve this problem.

    Generac/ Dixie Chopper carburetor bleed air jet O-rings.

    This may sound stupid, but the one thing i’ve done to solve this problem is to drop the Hertz down-to 59-60. Do this by droppingthe RPM’s to 3450-3500. This is still in normal operating range and doesn’t affect output. Works about 50% of the time.

    Coil resistance

    Resistance values for today’s CDI models are of little use, hence they are not published. They contain hall effect sensors which can only be tested with very expensive testing equipment.

    Tecumseh HH60

    I’ve asked twice how you tested to locate the problem. It was even asked what the original problem was. Those questions were never answered. You were asked to provide pictures of the magneto in question. Your answer was it’s too much work to remove shroud, gas tank and flywheel. How are you...

    Has the small engine line of work hit rock bottom?

    DF, you didn’t read my post correctly. I said i could make $500 a week working only the hours I want. Two weeks ago I got a call to get a Tecumseh Snow King basket case running for a Gilson snowblower. Dealer paid me $125 for 6 hours work cash. Customer was happy to have DADS blower ready...

    Tecumseh HH60

    This thread is starting to look a little goofy. OP does not answer all questions, pictures supplied show a unit that is too clean and doesn’t look like anyone has worked on it resently. OP doesn’t want to supply us with pics of magneto, but he has replaced parts on it. I doubt that the OP has...

    Two more questions. Does the part you are looking for mount underneath or outside the flywheel? If underneath, does it have both a spark plug lead and a two wire wiring harness with a diode inside attached to it?

    Tecumseh HH60

    Ok, now I’ve got a better idea of what you are working on. I haven’t seen one of these setups in over 20 years. From what you are now saying I think you are looking for either a stator or stator coil needed to charge the battery, not the magneto which is used to produce spark forthe ignition...

    Tecumseh HH60

    If you have replaced the points, condenser and the coil, you only have the laminated core to replace and you have rebuilt the entire magneto. We must be misunderstanding what we each mean by magneto. Please explain what you mean by “magneto” and how you tested it to determine it is bad. Doc...

    I have found the parts I listed available on multiple websites. My experience with trying to upgrade Tecumseh engines with the CDI coils to be very very iffy and at the cost I stopped recommending this type of repair unless the customer is willing to shell out $100.00, in advance, with no...

    Tecumseh Broke Rod

    I’ve probably been working on Tecumseh engines longer than you’ve been around, I might know a little bit about how they run.

    Is it better to run out of gas periodically vs topping off the tank before each use?

    If you know that you are using good fuel I wouldn’t worry about it. This is probably a personal preference and there will be people on both sides of this debate. If you are sure you have good fuel is more important to me.

    what missing from the carburetor choke

    Toro numbers don’t wear off, they are located on an ID tag under the grass rear chute cover or on the back of the deck. Engine numbers are probably on the metal shield over the muffler. You need to look a little harder, they are there.

    BadBoy Maverick HD Starts and Runs Fine Then Engine Surges

    And if it is not something simple and you tackle it yourself, you could void the warranty if the dealer finds out you tampered with the unit. Phone call to the dealer might be a better place to start. Could be even more expensive.

    Know What Really Grinds My Gears?

    You need to replace both the gear and wheel. I’ve seen this many times and being over 10 years old I suspect wear was caused by lack of maintenance, dirt buildup. Wheel bolt should also be checked, they wear also.
