How did it run before you changed those parts? If it is a 10 Micron filter it can cause the engine to starve for fuel since the engine does not have a fuel pump.

I have used a solenoid for an inerta drive starter and wire it basically the same way. I use 10 ga wire from the engine starter solenoid and back to the exciter terminal on the engine starter. You don't have to run a ground wire from the solenoid since the solenoid grounds to the frame when you...

We have fought the belts like that on several mowers. Finally got an after market raw edge belt and it solved the problem. Dealer is right the wrap belts can cause a noisey deck. Like he stated ever where there is a joint in the wrap there is a bump in the belt. I have seen belts with four to...

The people of America have spoken. The American people have spoken.

Did you ever find the problem? It is an awsome engine and very seldom blow head gaskets. Dixie Chopper quit using Generac engines around 2014 due to the fact they started dropping exhaust valves. While trying to meet EPA emission standards instead of revamping the engine to meet the standards...

Could you bolt the shock to the frame and them lift the body to line the holes up. Never tried just a thought.

Yes The engineers a Hustlers are a bunch of idiots. Anybody that would bolt a muffler to the frame is not too smart. The engine and the frame flex differently. Have seen a lot of the Hustler mufflers break because of this.

Take the top cover off the engine. Most of the engines have a half inch headed bolt with a torques star in the center of the bolt head.

Need complete model and code nol

Did you check the fuse? Can you hear the fuel solenoid click in?

Thanks I'll give it a try

Thanks

Ever think the crank shaft might be bent? The farther away from the bottom of the engine the worse it would be and this where the clutch in mounted. Should be able rig some thing to check it. Just take the clutch off and check it.

YW

What ever works for you.

If the pump is making a loud whinning noise it is usually the pump. You can have it checked with a flow meter and pressure gauge. Wheel motors usually feel like it is quivvering, Kind of like a chattering.

Check the ground cable from the battery to the engine. It bolts on the starter. Also check the wires on the electric clutch to make sure they have not gotten cut by the motion belt and shorting out.

What have you guys found to be the best stuff to glue a seat back to the seat pan?

Take out the plug leave it out and fill the hydro through the expansion tank. It will hold about 2 quarts. You can then finish filling the hydros after you put the plug back in. You will see bubbles coming out of the hydros into the tank until full.

Buy the Xtreme clutch it is head and shoulders above the rest. Have been using them for years and have yet to replace one. Usually about half price OEMs.

Get them in all the time where some genuis used a pry bar between the pully and the belt guide tabs. Then you have to get it off. Drill holes in the pulley and use a harmonic balance puller run bolts through the puller and the holes in the pulley and put nuts on the top of the pulley. I put an...

High fuel prices cause higher prices across the board. Drill baby baby. Vote for the right Man.

I see them come in all the time with the engine so loose it looks like it could fall off any time. What do you torque them to?

Told you that was what it was. YW Glad you found the other bolts loose and got that fixed as well.

We are a Dixie Chopper dealer I will check tomorrow and see if we have one.

A bolt is meant to be used with a nut, and it is tightened by torquing the nut. A screw is designed to be used in either a preformed or threaded hole, or it is capable of forming its own threaded hole. A screw is designed to be tightened by torquing the head.They are both threaded fixings and...

Check the valve clearance. While you are at it check the compression release. Turn the engine over and watch the bottom rocker to see if it bumps off just before it reaches top dead center.

Air filters that have a screen over the paper can be oiled if done properly. Filters that do not have the screen over the paper should never be oiled.

Did you check the engine mounting bolts? If not please do.

Clean the carb.

Have a Tekton I like checked today against our digital it is spot on.

We use parts tree for parts lookup but the are really high on the price of parts. It is a good parts lookup.

can't beat that.

Medart Shows they have 7 in stock. $647.01 retail. Amazon also shows one $628.20

Did you clean the pilot jet?

The small spring mutilated and streatched to put more tension on the governor. The large one it hooked wrong. It goes inside the loop on the gov link. The small one looks like something someone got out of the spring assortment at ACE HARDWARE. Take the small one off and hook the large one...

When you set the static gov adjustment be sure you are torquing the gov arm clamp bolt to 130 inch lbs. That sounds like what happend in th first place. If the rpms are still too slow you then bend the tab where the large gov spring hooks that is part of the speed control bracket. Sounds like a...

Most engines turn around 3600 rpms and drop about 100 to 200 rpms when blades are engaged.

Hold the governor link so the engine idles if it dies it is dirt in the idle circuit of the carb.

The ign switch does not supply power to the ignition modules. In the off position it grounds the kill circuit. In the run position it opens the kill circuit and does not ground it and kill the engine.

Yes it has a fuel pump.

GTV760 0050581 I hate the way Generac does their model no.s

like ILENGINE said most of the time the bolt is not tight when they break off and turn out easily. You can try a left hand drill bit and if it hangs in the bolt it will spin it right out.

That is a lot of oil in such a short time. That engine holds 2.4 quarts of oil. If you want to save it you should check it more often. Running it below the add mark is dangerious. You are basically using half the oil in that length of time. You should do a compression test and a cylinder leak...

They are good old mowers built for them by Simplicity.

Has fire getting fuel on one cyllinder next thing could it be a bad intake manifold? Bad air leak. Or are the vlaves working?

Super Zilla is the best thing I have ever used as a penetrant.

Turn the engine backward against compression and see if it will start. That way you will have one revelotion with no compression and it will probably start. You can also take the valve cover off and turn the engine over and watch the lower rocker arm to see if it bumps off just before the piston...

Mowers with bigger tires that are longer and wider ride better.
