I will in the future use the products previously mentioned to start an engine instead of an ether based one. What do you all think from the pictures if my choke is completely closed? While to me it appears to be closed, there is room for air to get in on one side of the butterfly. Maybe I am...

I have a HRX217K6HZAA, MAMA 1703372 for the last 2 years that mows very good. It has always been hard to start cold and after spraying some starter fluid it will immediately start and run fine. I can also restart the engine after it has been sitting for awhile; just not a cold start. I attached...

Excellent comments & suggestions; again I thank everyone for their assistance!

Thanks again for everyone's information! Hopefully I can unplug the hole and not damage the pilot jet. Paul

Thank you Star Tech! So I am clear and don't make any mistakes, this is the size of the hole in the end of the pilot jet that appears to be clogged in my picture? This is the end that goes into the carburetor first when installing the pilot jet. Sorry for my question but I truly appreciate...

Thanks everyone for their help! At least now I know the pilot jet is clogged at the end and will try some more to find the opening, including using a single wire from a wire brush (or anything smaller). Thanks again! Paul

Ilengine: Thank you for that information about the hole should be in the bottom of the pilot jet. Any suggestions on how to get it back opened? I have tried probing with a carburetor jet cleaning rod/brush and a small pointed pick after soaking for hours in carburetor cleaner (even in a sonic...

All jets I could get to are clear with no obstructions. All gas was drained out of the gas tank and the fuel line & filter were replaced. Only 100% gasoline with stabil was used. On the pilot jet, I cannot tell if there is a hole in the bottom of the jet, or not (as shown in the picture)...

If needed, the serial number on the Subaru EX270D503618590 Engine is 2439741.

I have a Dewalt Pressure Washer (DS3532) with a Subaru EX270D503618590 Engine with a Mikuni Carburetor (Foam type) that was surging so I disassembled the carburetor and cleaned it. After I reinstalled the carburetor it was still surging so I did some more research (this forum is great with a...

I am looking at a used ZD331 with a 60" mower deck at a local Kubota dealership. It has 570 hours and I started it yesterday at the dealership and noticed it will need a new battery (still will start). They are asking $9500 (which to me is too high) but this is some of my observations. The...

Thanks again for your reply and I will do as you describe above. Paul

Mechanic Mark: Thank you for your reply; am I correct to assume from what I describe above the drive cable needs to be replaced? Thanks also for the link to parts from honda parts nation, they are great! This forum is an excellent way to learn about your Honda Lawnmowers and I have used it very...

I have a 2005 Honda HRX217HMA, MAGA-1196621, that only recently will not stay at a constant ground speed when mowing. I will move the change cable lever to a faster setting, but in a minute or two the lever moves by itself to a much slower ground speed. I adjusted the change cable tighter (it...
