With engine running and battery connected what is the voltage from ground to output tab on regulator? Is it the same as ground to battery positive?

You may have fried the stator. You should have approx 28 volts AC @ 3000rpm across the two stator wires going to the regulator. Unplug and check the stator output.

Hey rivets. I have a red mower that won't start. How do I fix it? 🤔😵‍💫😂😂😂😂 Looks like the the e405 uses that crappy little 4 stroke crapsman and trash bilt is using on all the small stuff.

From the parts list it appears the engine has plain flat tappets and not hydraulic. It will not be pumping oil up through the lifters and pushrods like a car engine. The engine lubricatethe valve train by splash and mist. If the engine is running fine and not seizing the rods on the crank...

You need zum guy named Guido.

Yeah, they had to go to 2 harbor freights to get enough.

If I tried that I would just break something on me.

This woman is a PhD college professor.

Haven't used mine in a couple years

I have used international red. It is pretty close.

Olympics is a scam. Cities petition ( bribe) the IOC to host the games. Countries petition (bribe) the IOC to add events. With a big enough bribe I could probably get tiddly winks added as an Olympic sport.

Shoulda put the brakes on that break dancing.

Still not sure. 🫣

Customer states "engine dies when I engage the blades "

You can see it but RoyGBiv can't LOL

Knew a guy in the dayton outlaws motorcycle club who took time off from being a drug dealer to moonlight as a debt collector. If he wasn't serving time I would get you his number.

Yeah seen that on another forum. Kinda creepy thinking about it. Here's one. Google "the color that doesn't exist"

Guy I know retired and got a job cutting grass at a high end golf course. Worked for free just got to play golf there for free. Fred put a $75k mower in a pond and they didn't fire him.

Those are for the other side of the car

Way back in the the day had a manager named Chet who was a dick. Our favorite Christmas Carol went. "Chet's nuts roasting on an open fire" Pissed him off.....good.

Gotta watch heating up dem nutz.

The Pic is probably flipped.

If we are talking about a 5hp 13xxxx series briggs engine the "easy spin" bump is on the intake and not the exhaust. If the engine is not burning oil the most common cause of carbon deposits on the plug is not running rich but rather not running the engine hard enough to get the spark plug into...

Yup. Must be an aussie.

Some use the D spacer and some don't. Not sure of your application but this is what it looks like https://www.ebay.com/itm/225955067246

Just finished my third push mower of the last few days for water in the gas. Every one of them said the mower quit working after they filled it up. One guy says he uses one of the new politically correct gas cans. I guess they aren't as air tight as the government thought. E10 makes me money.

A small amount of water in the float bowl can cause a no start condition.

Buddy of mine raced flat track back in the day with a big 2 stroke single. Once up to speed he held the throttle wide open all the time and used the compression release to modulate power in an out of the turns. Keeps the engine revs in the powerband all the time. Brakes? What are brakes? I...

Fun fact. This past winter I forgot a plastic coffee can with about an inch of ice melter in it sitting in the barn. Found it yesterday. It is almost completely full of water it has pulled out of the air. Probably about a quart.

But the real question is what condition is the mower in overall. I don't get that kind of price and Most folks won't want to put over $1k into an older mower. By the time I replaced the trans and belt and idlers and whatever else is bad under the machine I am over $1k. Then throw in the annual...

I've had a few customers want me to work on 100 series JD mowers with the "slows down on hills" death whine. I won't even take them in the shop. Local JD dealers quote ridiculous high price to replace trans because they don't want to mess with it.

It's not a stuck valve. If they stick it is always open. Pull side cover which is hopefully not seized on the crank. Pull the cam out and see if you can turn the crank.

The 632201 carb is for a HH70. Heavy Horizontal 7hp. Cast iron engine. I don't think they made a HH120 with tiller reverse but they did on the HH70. Can you get a Pic of any govenor or control stuff?

A cast iron HH120 would be a beast on a tiller. Probably a HH70 or a MH70 from the carb number.

Most likely either rod seized on crank or crank seized in case.

The compression release on this engine is simply a small bump on on the intake valve closing ramp. It will not stop the engine from turning.

This thread took a left turn a long time ago.

Are they standard 251's with no primer bulb or 251ce's with a primer bulb and EZ pull starter?

Get some straight 50 wt. Won't fix them but will help.

The new stator should work fine as long as you have the 20 amp regulator.

Been there. Guy wanted me to change starter on a car. It was under the intake manifold.

I have a gallon of sta bil marine. I put it in customer equip but I never use it in my own stuff. It makes them feel better.

Not sure but this might be a fuel problem

I have lawnboy S21ZPM that is 30+ years old. It is a trim mower now so it only sees a few tanks of gas a year. At the end of the season I turn off the gas valve and run the cab dry. In the spring I turn the valve on and star the mower. Gas in it could be 6 to 8 months old and has oil in it...

Well. Somebody's gotta do it. Internet expert here. You are doing it wrong. Not sure what it is but I am sure it's wrong. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

If the cylinder is worn not much you can do other than new cylinder. May not be worth all the detective work as a P&C kit is only $35

If you google "jd445.pdf" you can download the service manual from garden tractor talk website.

If the belt pulley is not turning (power off) and the clutch makes a noise it is probably the bearing in the clutch. With the clutch powered on the bearing doesn't spin so no noise. I would remove the clutch and check the bearing.

Remove the deck belt Engage and disengage the clutch Does it still make the noise when disengaged? Does the belt pulley stop spinning when the clutch is disengaged? If the belt pulley keeps turning when the clutch is disengaged and make the scraping noise the bearing in the clutch is probably bad.
