Yup, unless they are using equipment to make money, they see the value in preventative maintenance.

Yearly maintenance prevents 90% of problems. Read your owners manual and follow the recommended maintenance schedules. Valve adjustment is just one of many maintenance items that is required after a certain amount of hours (which is listed in your owner's manual) This is no different than...

Also time to check and adjust valve clearances if necessary. Only adjust valve clearances on a stone cold engine.

When we had our VW aircooled shop we used tons of helicoils for spark plugs/exhaust studs. Always a success. Used red loctite when installing. As a shop, we would buy starter kits for what was required and then just ordered extra inserts kits as required. Slowly built up to having all the...

Thanks for reporting on your progress and success!

Yeah except they are referencing the part # in description

Hi there, working on neighbour's Self Propelled Lawnboy. The cogged belt was broken and the drive belt is worn & cracked. We ordered both belts from Amazon and the cogged belt was a perfect match & installed. The drive belt is another issue. Part # for the new drive belt according to the pdf...

Buy or make your own cork/neoprene gaskets, they will be reusable at least once if you don't overtighten the valve cover. I would use the 1/16"- 1/8" thick material. You can buy sheets of it at auto supply stores or probably Harbor Freight.

Can that gear be flipped over or does it only go on one way? Just curious.

It could be your new airfilter element is not correct for venting the engine. I know the video attached applies to Kawasaki, but the same theory could apply to your B&S

LOL, "they had locktite on the bolts from the factory but I'm not gonna put any on because I've never seen one come loose"

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.
