This guy needs to see how a blade leveling gauge is made , among other things i won't mention .

Without any test equipment spark , timing , and compression can be checked with a helper to crank .

The belt in the pic looks way too loose . I believe you have the wrong belt . Why is the sheave in the pic so rusty ?

How would warranty know you ran it at less that full throttle . If the sale wasn't registered you may not get warranty work done .

Is there any way you can pull ( hold pressure on ) the pins while heating the housing they are in to approx 150° ? Don't touch the flame to the pins . We're trying to expand the metal around the pins and not expand the pins .

I have a Arbor Press but I drive the bearings out with a my Roll Pin punch or other blunt steel rod . The zerk , with sealed bearings , is for show and tell to look good to the customer . If there's a tubing spacer between the bearings for the inner races to rest on, don't forget to install it...

No surprise to me if the nut in the O P is still advertising .

The inner races of both bearings and the spacer rotate as an assembly . If both bearings outer race is a press fit and the spacer is NOT the same length as the outer bearings seat distance apart , as i mentioned before the bearings get a tremendous Pre-load . ie , the bearings get their guts...

I suggest measuring the spacer length and the distance between the outer race seats . The ones i've measured the spacer length was around 0.008" longer than the 2 bearing seat distance . Of course when the outer races are pressed until they seat in their space that tends to push the inner...

Or too long . That's why 1 bearing should be a light push fit because when both bearings are press fit and you press on the outer race to seat those the inner races are pushed out or pulled in when the blade nut is tightned .

At least one of the 2 bearings need to be a push fit with your fingers to prevent a horrible side thrust on the race and balls .

If you want to discharge and have a cleaner deck that's easier to clean , remove any baffles and pitch them in a dumpster .

Why all of the rust on the pulleys ? Maybe a pre-owned mower ,

I've given up trying to locate a ridiculous size code # .

I don't find a date on OP or follow ups . Would it be asking too much to include that with the time ? If that's too much to ask , could the date replace the time .

My experience with champion plugs in a chevy . You may have to walk some . My experience with NGK plugs in a new 7042 cu. in. Waukesha . If you be lucky you replace the plugs with champion before quitting time the 1st day . If you be un-lucky you replace the NGK with Champion at 2:00 A.M.

The gas tank cap vent may be plugged on a engine that old .

As i understand plastics there are 2 basic types , thermo - plastic and thermo - set . How would a common person determine which a piece is ? Can thermoset be welded ?

With a helper to crank , spark , compression and timing can all be checked close enough to run by removing a plug and grounding it , holding your thumb/finger on the plug hole and watch for spark at exactly the time your thumb/finger is blown from the spark plug hole . If that looks acceptable...

No matter which which procedure you use , if you didn't color code each spring and / or rod connection with a different color paint you missed the very important 1st step . You'll realize that more and more the longer it takes to receive parts that were ordered or getting back to that job if...

If it has a constant speed gov. the throttle will be wide open at cranking speed .

My take on this is , there is going to be dirt there whether it's greased or not . So it comes down to , do you want dry dirt or lubricated dirt . I opt for lubricated and always have . I even re-enjinered the steering on the X350 so i could oil the steering pinion bearing . The pinion and...

Around 3,200 rpm. We'll follow the progress .

A 2X4 two ft. long makes a excellent impacter when it smacks the end of the box wrench that's on the nut .

No current is getting to the solenoid via the small solenoid wire to make it shift and connect the 2 large cables . Run a test wire from the battery positive to that small terminal on he solenoid to determine if it will crank .

Screw a cork in there . Buy an extra for next time .

With a feeler gauge of the correct thickness to adjust the intake valve , insert it between the rocker lever and valve when he piston is coming up on compression stroke . Maybe this is one that the cam bumps the valve stem just before TDC to release just enough compression . The feeler will get...

Rather than a constant speed Gov. it would need a Limiting speed Gov. and hand throttle , that is if you don't want the rod out the side .

Remove the spark plug and pull the rope . Note if any liquid comes from the cylinder

Hot water normally works to soften most any kind of hose when a torch is questionable .

We aren't dealing with fit and finish quality we had 25 years ago . Not even close . Hot water will usually soften hose safely .

Being nov 4 , if there hasn't been frost to kill annual weeds there will be soon . Don't be concerned with killing weeds now . Till until the soil is clean like in this vid in , how to plant alfalfa . Grass planting is the same for cool season grass . Notice this farmer doesn't plant seed then...

Is this nut a serrated lock nut ? All serriated lock nuts i've found have angled serrations with a flange washer .

Quit screwing around with all the deck leveling tools and make one that's easy to read . You won't need a ruler , tape measure , caliper , micrometer or any of those tools that have numbers and need to be read . All you need is this tool and a flat surface to park on and doesn't even need to be...

do 4 cycle mower engines and 2 cycle string trimmer engines ping . if they are pinging how do i tell they are pinging .

Please donate all Ryobi electrics to the government to keep the white house lawn manicured .

Every filter for our engines has some dust going through because we're not using NASA filters . If you would like to see the dust the eye can't normally see , wear a led head lamp outdoors in complete darkness and look up at an acute angle about where a ball cap bill would end . That's what's...

there's your problem , the choke wasn't hooked to the air box

The only area that filter could leak is at the 2 hose connections and not likely there .

i've concluded we're getting the run-around with this style of filter . HOW ? these type filters will work on any riding lawn tractor or engine . The requirements are it will go into the compartment of that design , the hose ends will fit as designed and the shroud cover will re-install . The...

I'm not finding a filter No. engine No. match and no X350 is on the list .

Thanks

Need Air filter from amazon for a X 350 J D Kaw number 13*97/ 68SN4G2*2012 / 46*0629 * 08 Engine Family : KAXS. 603N4CB Thanks https://www.amazon.com/s?k=x350+air+filter&crid=1U3EHZBBCC9S0&sprefix=x350+air+filter%2Caps%2C90&ref=nb_sb_noss_1

Put a real plug in it like a champion . We had a new 7042 cu inch waukesha delivered with NGK plugs and i was out there within the first 24 hours at 2 am replacing the plugs with champion and all was well .

Check out the Ego for ease of string management . Watch other vids too . https://egopowerplus.com/string-trimmer-powerload-line-iq/

Looks to possibly be a variable speed assembly . Research those on line . IIR , older MTD products had something similar .

WOAH , you have a perfect chance to check for a bent engine shaft and a bent blade . As soon as you can get the shroud to move just enough to rotate the engine then check for a bent shaft by determining if the end of the blade clearance to the shroud is the same on both ends of the blade . If...

That's how we patched tubes in the good ole days . A Camel patch kit had everything needed other than a kitchen match to light the glue to make it cure - dry faster .The tubes were red rubber .
