without a complete model and serial number plus a photo from multiple angles it is impossible to tell what part that is on a parts diagram. There are some models that show parts still available. Then generic ebay searches show somethings like this. Good luck. Without more to go on my search...

can you have an HVAC sheet metal guy form one out of sheet metal to reinforce it and epoxy the two together? Or can you find someone with a brake and build it out of thicker aluminum to replace it?

just be aware that someone else did that recently on the forum and it lasted about 15 minutes before it chucked a rod again. You also need to inspect the cylinder bore to see if it was damaged or the piston got whacked. generally in machine work if you can feel it with your fingernail it is bad...

MTD. You can go to MTD online, You will need the model and serial number to pull up the manual.

I get the funny feeling that the question "where is the voltage regulator" is really an answer to another question like why won't my engine start, or why isn't the battery charging etc.. Is it?

do a cylinder balance test.

time to get the volt meter out and a wiring diagram.

maybe cut more frequently? Hybrid Bermuda grass hates to be cut too much at a time, and shows a much better cut with reels than horizontal blades. Walk part of the area that you don't like and see if you can figure out what the pattern is to the defects. That may give you a better clue what is...

the factory manual says that speed is not controllable, that the speed was set at the factory. Most of these mowers are on or off. The cable controls the "operator presence bar". When let go by the operator the engine dies. link to owners manual...

There are qualifiers that can be used to help in a Google search. Double quotes with the search word in between will only yield results with that in it. Putting a minus mark - in front of a word will exclude it. As an example, If I search for something like Bicycle Trail Memphis, I might get 50...

You know what you want. And we know how frustrating it can be trying to upload photos without the right application. What is making this thread harder for everyone is that you likely have an engine that is old and has been tampered with, perhaps many times. I remember the neighbor hood kids who...

Unfortunatrly life doesn't work that way. It is really hard sometimes to answer someone's question remotely. Sometimes it takes a dialog to even begin to understand the problem. But sorry forums can be frustrating - they can be no doubt.

it sure the heck will if the engine is overheating

find another carb in a bone yard

I'd be looking at the cooling system to see if it is functioning right. What type day time temperatures are we talking this is happening in?

You need to be a bit more descriptive about why you needed to repair the pulley and how you did so. You also need model, year and serial number. Posting a service manual wiring diagram would help, as would where you bought the replacement parts you used or details how you repaired the old one.

unfortunately most things made today are made to last a limited lifespan. I've got a 7 year old SUV which the last of that generation model was sold in 2018. The electronics no longer work due to telecomunication changes, and Honda/Acura says they have been waiting on the part for over a year...

It is a mini-bike that some 14 year old tinkered with to go as fast as he/she could. There is little chance it has original parts in it.

If the spark is jumping thru the boot instead of the plug gap you have two possible problems that both need to be addressed, and one that may be an issue. (1) The plugs are open or the gap is way excessive (2) as others have said, the high tension lead is bad - you may be able to buy a new boot...

what are you grounding the plug body to when you do this? What brand plugs and where did you get them?

to me burnish means heavy duty wire brush or abrasive pad on it. What does it mean to you? Definition of burnish transitive verb 1a : to make shiny or lustrous especially by rubbing burnish leather burnishing his sword b : polish sense 2 : to rub (a material) with a tool for compacting or...

depends how they fail. If the teeth are all knocked off then it could be the flywheel. If they are burning up check the battery voltage. It may be low. Motors use more current when voltage is low.

Is this an after market part, or one from SCAG?

a plugged breather line, or excessive blow by, or overfilling it, or if old oil moisture in the oil.

The solution I would guess a manufacturer will take is first to deny, then if push comes to shove, replace the deck. If the process of painting it is the same, expect the same results. Honda/Acura has been having problems with sheets of paint coming off on certain colors. I suspect it is more of...

did you just buy a new bendix?

we have a guy like that on another forum I go to. If someone gets 22 miles per gallon he gets 35. If their engine lasts 150,000 miles on an old 60's or 70's car his lasts 600,000. If someone gets 50,000 on a set of tires, he gets 150,000. I guess some people are just lucky.

go thru it again. Start by making sure you have the correct belt and not just a clone. Belts have length width angle compound style like ribbed or non-ribbed fiber type Next make sure the deck is not warped over the years Check all the electrical connectors to be sure none are corroded and...

battery tender, 4 to 5 years max on most batteries is all one will get,

sounds like the deck and PTO need an overhaul to be sure everything is in good condition. Worn pulleys, belts, bearings, electric grounds and wire connectors etc..

it is like the one time use caps on the wagon or tricycle your kids had only more robust. You can also cut it with a dremel but make sure you can get replacements first if you cut itl

like this? If so I'd get the JD manual for it to start with. Any short to ground can pop a fuse. You'll need the wiring diagram to isolate circuits until you find the one causing the issue. In the meantime inspect all the wiring to see if anything looks chaffed.

he probably meant this

I can't answer that. You will have to pull up the fiche on each engine and compare part for part. The crankshaft and rod control the stroke. That interacts with the head as to clearance and compression. I would not mix and match the crank and head as they were designed together. You may have a...

just raise the working RPM and that will raise HP. HP is a function of torque x RPM. A higher compression ratio will also raise engine efficiency and create more HP. Of course the trade off is more stress and a shorter life span for the engine.

with EFI there are usually temperature sensors that send some kind of signal to the ECU. Sometimes those sensors are grounded into the block, and they can get corrosion in them, or go bad. When they do, depending what the ECU is programed to do, it can add too much fuel or cut back on it, or...

I don't have personal experience but this looks like an interesting tool used in karting. There are photos of it in use on the page so you can compare it to your head and how it works. Without seeing your heads from all sides it is hard to tell you what would work. Sometimes the angles and way...

this is all I found online

its a Honda. Honda doesn't make anything like they used to. Sorry you are having problems. It is either in the transmission or in getting power to the transmission. Inspect the belt for slipping too.

explain please

take it back to your buddy and let him fix whatever he broke.

check all the transmission mounts too, and frame for cracks.

don't compound the problem with new ones. figure which of the three things are missing, It is really easy to troubleshoot any engine that does not run if you just focus on figuring which of the three are missing. fuel to air Spark compression

you may have to do some Google searches using the name on the stickers you do have and then look on Craigs List and Ebay to see if you find an engine that looks identical to yours. Without a model and serial it may be impossible to know what is in it. I saw one that was a Tecumseh 11.5 Enduro...

why did you replace the filter? You may have pulled or broken a line if the leak is new.

The fragments of your old belt may have a part number on it.

he has another thread where he says the mower won't move.

he also says he has four flat tires in his second thread here.

I'll bet the seller charged the battery just for you.

I had this sports car. Every day about the same time, same mileage from home it would start mis-firing for a while on the freeway. I chased all the usual culprits. Then I realized it was really happening in the same turn on the freeway. A distributor wire was rubbing on the fender and grounding...
