I like to buy the 75 micron clear ones so I can see whats going on in the filter if there is debris coming from the tank

Waaaaaaaaay back in time when I was apprenticing automotive, at school the rule was not to overpack grease in wheel bearings, etc meaning pack the bearings properly, apply a thin coat on hub & spindles to prevent corrosion only as it causes heat retention and causes premature bearing wear due to...

Is that .06mm or .06"? .06mm = .0023" Intake should be .004" Exhaust should be .006" Engine must be cold for setting valves

Best response yet!

Personally, I wouldn't trust a parts store loaned out torque wrench, ever.

😨

😂🤣😂

Valves adjusted at TDC on the compression stroke?

I just use them to stop the flow then plug with a tapered punch

Yes, keep focused and think ahead. Sad story for sure :(

Put it in your vehicle, make sure your tank is 3/4 full.

Did you drop the engine pulley to get the drive belt on?

Model 441577, Type 0113 E1, Code 060410YG I've looked everywhere trying to find the RPM high/low specs for this engine, can anyone help? This is a friend's ride-on I'm working on and google has let me down :(. Thanks in advance :)

Wow, a full flow OIL filter on a push mower, impressive! Good luck with your rare find.

Did you remove all the plugs when you checked the compression after the engine was running??

Did you check the gas flow from the tank to the fuel pump? Should be a good steady stream. Does it improve if you loosen your gas cap?

Yes, remove all spark plugs when doing compression as well as full throttle. The starter is fighting the compression of the other 3 cylinders. You want it spinning as freely as possible for checking compression.

Homeowner use: I would go with the RYOBI brand. Have had great success with ours over 18yrs nothing has broken and we have put them thru some hard work. Batteries haven't been an issue either. We have drills, drivers, hammer drill, 7" skill saw, recip saw as well as mulitple yard tools...

Which invariably will happen :)

Compression test and since you had the valve covers off, should be checking the clearances and adjusting if necessary.

Sounds like BS to me. Mufflers should be able to be removed and re-installed without issues unless of course the internal threads are hooped.

True, but most batteries are dated at mfg. Ryobi has mailed me batteries under warranty. Might also be cheaper to have them rebuilt locally as opposed to replaced.

What kind of warranty are on these batteries, just curious

You will still need to buy & install new bushings for the wheels after the spindles are welded

Thank you StarTech !

Kohler XT6.75 PN: PH-XT675-2044 SN:4334903388 HUAYI Corp Carb # 1405368 I've been searching for a Carb kit for this engine and none available. All I require is the 2 o-rings that are on the Pilot jet. Does one of you wizards know the size of these o-rings or could I purchase o-rings for...

But the cable was working fine before it broke? So why not go with it again.

Usually the cable sheath itself has a number imprinted on it. You can use that number to order a new cable.

Vancouver Island, barely nothing and it's supposed to be heavy cloud, so NO :(

2800rpm looks to be the sweet spot

It's 13yr old now, I would sharpen and balance the blade and not raise it more than 2900rpm. Sharp/balanced blades make all the difference. Running with an unbalanced blade just going to damage the engine. New blades are pretty cheap.

You can use the existing fuel filter if you think it's good, it will get flushed. No I can't. You can let them sit for a couple of hours and it will separate.

Why are you wanting to up the rpm? Do you think it's not mowing well enough?

Hook up all your hoses, change the filter if you want. Keep your fuel shut off in off, put good fuel in the tank. Drop the bowl off the carb and empty and clean. Leave the bowl off and turn your fuel on till you get a good stream of fresh fuel coming through the carb. Shut off the fuel, put...

If you go back to message #9 you will see that Rivets has posted links to Walbro carb info, can't remember if there was Zama stuff there also.

Just love Steve, he knows his stuff!

Same here, couldn't shoot a thing.

Juntjoo: I honestly don't know why Rivets is wasting his time with you. Your arrogance and ignorance is deplorable on a site meant to help people. This is not a site to educate you in small engine repair, it's for people that either have some mechanical knowledge or when they find out that...

Awesome reference reading Rivets! Keeping all those PDF's for future reference. I normally only piddle around with 4 strokes but I always need refresher on the 2 stroke carbs. Thanks!

Make sure engine is cold when adjusting valves
