Should be a 5 digit number starting with either a 4 or 7. ID tag is normally on the engine shroud.

This is as close as I can come without the generator model number. Manual does have a phone number. If you find the generator model number, post back and I’ll try again. https://www.absolutewaterpumps.com/media/blfa_files/41135_manual-english.pdf

That type of connector is used because of equipment vibration, rarely will ever come loose. When removing or installing a bit of dish soap is your friend. Should be able to find at an auto or marine parts supplier. Or this site...

Many times, but never from you. Most times just questioning my replies. This would be a first.

Star, I don’t understand your comment about me or my post? I can just go from the info the OP provides. He asked how difficult the job would be and I gave him the best answer I could, depending on which engine he had. If my answer is wrong, what is your expert response based on the info he...

This project just took a sideways turn. If you replace the camshaft you are going to have to check the valve clearances and most likely have to adjust them. Now you have added a new direction to your project. This will not be easy unless you have an OHV engine. Post all engine numbers and we...

First there is no decmpression valve on today’s small engines. Depending on the age of the engine you have an ACR (auto compression release) mounted on the camshaft or a small bump on the intake lobe of the camshaft.

First, valve clearances should be intake .003”-.005” and exhaust .005”-.007”. Wrong clearances will contribute to your problem. Section, a bright white plug indicates a lean running condition, not rich. A rich mixture will actually help cool the engine.

Today’s small engines have no drain plug. Either use a vacuum pump or do as I do. Tip the unit on its side, carb up, and drain oil into a pan through the fill tube.

Dry normally means rich mixture, not oil.

Should have added you’ll probably should replace the drive gears also.

Those belts should be replaced every 5-7 years, so that is part of the problem. Second, I’m willing to be that the clutch drive in both wheels need to be cleaned and worn friction ring and clutch washer will need to be replaced. I’ve attached both a parts manual and drive service manual to...

Please post the model and serial numbers for your mower. That way we can tell which drive system you have. Second, when was the last time you changed the drive belt?

Most Kohler coils are mounted with the kill wire terminal up. See this manual under reassembly. https://www.mymowerparts.com/pdf/Kohler-Service-and-Repair-Manuals/Kohler-Service-Repair-Manual-Command-CV11-CV12.5-CV13-CV14-CV15-CV16-CV460-CV465-CV490-CV495.pdf

Should be Kohler coil part number 12 584 04. Air gap should be .010”. Did you buy an OEM coil from a reputable dealer or go to FleaBay or AmoScam to get your coil? Cant tell you the number of times we’ve encountered bad parts sold on the internet sites.

Remove the kill wire from the coil and check for spark again. No spark means bad coil.

If it came to me with the conditions you describe I would be removing and rebuilding the carb.

Are you sure it’s not an HH120? HH170 does not show up. This manual may help. https://www.mymowerparts.com/pdf/Tecumseh-Service-and-Repair-Manuals/TECUMSEH-SERVICE--REPAIR-MANUAL-VH80-VH100-HH80-HH100-HH120-OH120-OH140-OH160-OH180-8HP-THRU-18HP-CAST-IRON-ENGINES-691462A.pdf

More questions than answers. First you say you have all components, but then you think you are missing a rod or spring. If you have all components then you have to crawl under the unit and identify each against the diagram and where they go. This is a slow tedious task, especially if you are...

Have you checked the spark arrester to see if it is plugged?

I was at Tractor Supply yesterday and saw that they had a variety of axle bearings in stock. If you have one in your area it might be worth a phone call and/or road trip. Make sure you have the bearing in hand if you do so.

Anyone have an idea whether this is Spam or not? Just joined and wants you to click on an unknown site, seems like a big red flag. No I didn’t click on it.

Two things you can try. Remove one bearing and clean the exterior very well. Most times bearings will have their manufacturer number stamp on them. If no numbers are there take the bearing to an industrial supply company and ask them to measure and match them. I’ve used companies such as...

You need to determine whether you have a fuel or ignition problem. Get yourself an inline spark tester at your auto parts store and the next time it happens, insert the tester and check for spark. No spark ignition problem, spark fuel problem. Report back and we’ll provide suggestions as to...

You don’t give us a lot to go on to help you. This site has the parts diagrams for your unit which may help you out. After you look them over, maybe you can give us a better description of what parts you are talking about. http://www.lawnflitespares.com/lawn-tractors/603/13dh473c611-2007

Cut the filter open and look at the size of the particles. Coffee filters won’t stop anything that small. As stated may have to change the filter a few time to get all the crap out.

I agree with Bert, only real fix is to weld and retap. Anything else won’t last long and not worth the effort or expense.

Stupid question, but what is the plug number you are using? Could just be that the plug is too cold.

That’s what I was afraid you were talking about. They are fun to reassemble even when you have done it hundreds of times. I’ve attached the service manual for your unit, which will definitely help you out. Patience and an assistant are going to be you greatest asset. Start with section...

Please explain what part you are calling the control lever. Speed or throttle? Also include the units serial number.

Model and serial numbers for your unit would be extremely helpful for us to help you..

I agree with Hammer and Forest, diaphragm needs replacing. Plus, I always recommend replacing the carb to tank gasket, as it ie not uncommon for the tank to warp on a 37 year old engine and the this seal will be broken and the pump will not work.

I always recommend the Minimum CCA for twin cylinder engines is 300-325 CCA. Also check the charging system, if not charging a minimum of 13.6 DCV, you probably found another problem.

Have you checked for debris floating around in the fuel tank. May be partially blocking the outlet.

I would recommend either a Kubota or Toro with the Myride system. Prices vary with deck size, model and accessories.

If you peened the valve seats in you also need to at least relap the valves, if not recut the valve seats and faces. Valves seats can be easily cocked which will not allow them to seal properly.

Double check your adjustment following the procedure in this service manual. https://www.briggs-stratton.cz/nahradni-dily-bas/pdf/prirucka-2valcove-intek.pdf

Have you tried an electrical appliance repair shop?

I’ll take the boob in the office over a convicted habitual liar.

If the battery drops below 10VDC when you try to start the engine, you are going to have to get a new battery before you can diagnose your problem. A bad battery likes to hide other problems.

Which pulley is the belt coming off? There are different belt guides which may be attached wrong. This manual shows how the belt is routed and the location of the belt guides...

Bought from a Big Box store, take it back. Bought at a dealer, take it back and have them check it out.

Need to know engine number, which are located, stamped on the shroud. Check above muffler or post all numbers on the engine ID tag.

Probably have to drop the engine pulley or remove the belt guard.

You need to post the model and serial numbers for your unit. We hate throwing out guesses as to how to help you with out knowing which of the hundreds of different models of Husqvarna tractors made. Which blade spindle did he replace?

Just start a new thread. Include all engine and unit numbers, plus the best description of the problem and what you have done to this point to resolve the problem.
