With the engine not running there should be spring force trying to pull the throttle open. Yours according to the service manual has a "governed Idle" which does not allow the carburetor to close and touch the speed adjustment screw on the carb. It is designed to allow the operator to idle the...

Just a quick question. Was the governor lever turned the right way when you put the sump back on?

Some engines do this but I am not familiar (don't remember really) it has been a while since I have worked at one of the opposed flat head twins. The best would be to follow the linkage and see if there is a link or lever to do so. Even the service manual has no clear picture of the control. If...

You stated you were able to bring it back to idle by using a wire -- does the governor are try to pull it back to idle? If not there could be one of two issues. Governor not adjusted properly which you said you did, or the internal governor has a problem which could be 1. the flyweights weights...

The engine speed is controlled by a balancing act between the governor and the governor spring. When the engine is running the governor should pull the carburetor closed, when you start the engine is there any force opposing the sparing? Trying to close the throttle? Can you hold the governor...

Have you used the new torque spec and pattern? Have tried to copy file and attach the file but the computer won't allow it. So here is th jist of the service bulletin. 1 New design head bolt, with new torque pattern. No part number given. 2. Tighten 1/3 value, then 2/3, then final torque. 3 new...

Blown head gasket a common problem on Breaks & Scrapem singles especially the 28 and 31 cube engines. Some overeducated engineer thought they did not need a headbolt in the pushrod area and therefore it is a long distance between the two head bolts. Quickest way to check for a blown gasket is to...

When it shuts down have you checked the antifire solenoid (if it has one) in the carburetor bowl? Sometimes when they get hot they will not work properly and close. May have to check for a missing heat shield or fabricate one.

A common issue on these mowers. Usually caused by the frame beeing bent from hitting something too hard. Yes the frames are marginal strength. There are two may be three ways to fix it, replace the frame and be sure to be gentle with the front end, straighten and reinforce the frame, replace the...

You say it "just clicks when the key is turned" Is that to the run position or start? The fuel solenoid and other relays will click in the on position, the starter solenoid when turned to the start position will only click if it is bad, because the internal contacts are corroded and don't make...

Guess it shows my age! Oh my. I was refering to the John Deere tractors made in the 30's 40's and 50's. It was 52 or 53 when they finally went to two barrel carbs.

Somthing to think about. A V twin engine fires the same as the two cylinder John Deere. One cylinder fires and the other fires 90* later then there is no power for 270* turn of the crankshaft. John Deere had an issue using single barrel carburetors because the first cylinder was lean and the...

Any thought on Baldwin Filters?

If you review my previos post on page 1 & 2 esentialy does that and elinimates the module. The issue is the switches used with the module are normally open and when activated are closed. The switched in the "kit" are normally closed and open when activated. This means if a switch is deactivated...

If memory serves me right that should be a self tapping screw.

From the posted picture there is something rubbing the inside of the belt. This caused the damage pictured overheats and destroys the belt. Be sure to check all around the belt for a guide on the wrong side of the belt or a loose parts hanging down an rubbing the belt. If the belt was loose the...

If the parts book is correct that is a hrdrostatic transmission. Have you checked the oil level? There is a spring that pulls the transmission back to tighten the belt, is the transmission free to rotate? Are the axle bearings getting tight? Is the pulley slipping on the crankshaft (doubt it)...

Note the second box does not have the Kawaski name it, but looks the same otherwise. Is it a genuine part? or a copycat?

See if this helps Here is a links for a manual for a Pro 150. Note the first few pages give a way to eliminate the module. Note to ALL: Please when you ask for help with a Gravely (maybe others) include the model #. Should be a tag on the engine deck and is six digits as 988100, 988101 etc...

That is the govment being sure the consumer gets a poor running engine and is nnot able to adjust the carburetor. After all you know the consumer will adjust the carburetor and cause excessive pollution. Be glad you can adjust it and don't have to take off those ******** limiter caps.

Are you running the engine "wide open" and is the speed set at manufactuerers specification? Depending on mower deck and mulching blade design it may not produce enough air flow for a bagger. Is the deck clean and the boot and tube clean? Is the screen clean in the bagger so air can get out...

You did not say what engine is on the mower. Kohler had that issue but it has been to long I don't remeber the fix. Consider the cylinder lays flat, oil drains off the piston and cylinder and will seep past the piston rings especially if the ring gaps especially if the are on the bottom of the...

The pston shows signs of oil useage note how it is washed clean on the top side especially the left side. The cylinder appear to be scored especially at the bottom which indicates not enough oil changes or possible overheating. Does the cylinder have ridge when the top ring stops? Enough to...

I have no doubt that major spark plug manufacturers are making good products whether it is NGK, Champion, AC, Bosh, Denso or others. I know what happened and had a sore hand for a week. Also as stated before the first one was totally checked out, carb, coil, flywheel key, valve settings, fuel...

As cheap as spark plugs are I never use used sparkplugs unless it is a known good for testing only to be replaced by a new plug. Yes I agree sometimes people don't respect the spark plug and careless handling especially when dropped on the floor result a damaged plug. I have seen insulators...

These were usually OEM Honda installed plugs. As I said I could not explain the why, I can only say what happened and after replaceing the plugs with Champion had no more problems. They only reason I can put on the problem was there was a problem with the resistor in the plugs. By the way the...

I cannot explain the why. I can only say what was done and how it was fixed. The only explaination I can think of was the plug was partially fouled. Yes I don't understand why the timing was changed, only that it was. And that by changing the plug the issue was corrected. I replaced the plug...

This was especially Honda push mowers Yes more than one, would be hard to start, pop back thru the carburetor, pop out the muffler, plus pull the cord back. Changed the plug mower would start easily and run good.

After getting the starter cord ripped out of my hand by equipment with NGK plugs, I have decided NGK stands for No Good Kind. By the way replaced the NGK with any other plug and unit ran perfectly.

Honda just loves to play games with the small engines. Their old ignition modules needed to be grounded to kill the engine, new ignition modules need to be grounded to run. Yeah I found out the hard way.

Have seen many blades come in that way, "just sharpen please". Sorry you need new blades those are dangerous. "Why?". Well you tell me when a piece flys off and cuts your leg or worse. "But new blades are expensive". ??????? The best one I liked was the "mow & till". The customer hit something...

There may be an Igniter used on this engine according to the service manual. Best to check them before condeming the coils. If it is on a John Deere the also have a control box that will kill the spark. Ask me how I know that one gave me a fit. I attempted to attach the service manual -- but too...

Most pistons used in small engines use at least three rings. Two compression and one oil. Athough the second ring is regarded as a compression ring it also does a little oil control. If the engine has been fed clean air the compression rings will show little wear and the engine will have good...

Not a generator engine as they use a tapered crankshaft. Water pumps use a threaded shaft

Remove spark plug wire, turn mower on side -- with carburetor up -- very carefully watch the bolt in the center of the crankshaft, turn the blade, if it is not true and goes in a circle the crank is bent. Sometimes it is easier to have someone pull the startter rope while someone watches the...

OP It would help if you posted the engine make and model all manufactuers made an engine with 22 horsepower. If we are told this information someone who is knowledgable on certain makes and models may know of a the problem area of the engine, and be able to give you better advise on the issue...

It sounds as if the mower was purchased and started without oil, after it stopped the owner then added the oil he was supposed to have put in before starting it. If that is what happened the connecting rod seized to the crankshaft, the connecting rod overheated and deformed causing the bolts to...

See if this helps. In your pictures the spring appears at an angle, it should be limp and in a straight line when in the idle position and pull on the governor arm as the throttle is opened. It also appears the bracket is not properly attached to the block, the top bolt is missing, this may be...

Don't think it is possible. Not enough compression, the block is not strong enough to handle the compression increase, the rods are too weak, no way to put injectors in the head. As for a turbo many farm tractors have not used a turbo the AC D19 was the first, then other manufacturers started...

Since the seat switch is normally closed this means it will ground the magneto when it is added to the circuit this is when the clutch is released or mower put in gear. I would believe the seat was frozen and could not open the switch. Have had that happen often. This often occurred when the...

Most manufacturers but not all put the seat switch in place to kill the ignition when you get out of the seat. This is so you can't get off while the engine is running unless the pto is disengaged and the control levers are out or start position. This is so you don't get run over or chopped up...

A governor works by the internal parts a gear with flyweights attached the force a thimble against a lever. That lever is a part of the shaft that comes out of the carnkcase, it has the arm on that a spring is attached to it also has linkage as the attached picture shows. The spring on the rod...

The afterfire solenoid is used to prevent fuel from entering the muffler on shutdown. The reason it is used is the exact reason you are having. Don't forget as the unit ages deposits can build up in the muffler and as the engine slows is is still pulling fuel thru the engine, without the...
