    Craftsman 22" "mulcher" airbox?

    The parts you need are just the air filter cover and air filter. Part numbers 245 & 250 on the diagram I posted. The only reason you would need the other parts post, were if you are going to completely remove and rebuild the carb...

    Old GTS5 blade won't engage.

    You can call it a clutch, but if you look closely you will see that it nothing more than a CV drive where the more tension you put on the handle, the faster the unit will drive and the blade will engage with very little tension on the handle. Take a look at the manual I posted earlier to see...

    Old GTS5 blade won't engage.

    Here is the service manual for those drive systems, but I don’t recommend trying to work on it unless you have a better than average mechanical ability. https://www.toro.com/getpub/22446

    Old GTS5 blade won't engage.

    When was the last time the belt was changed? I’m guessing that it is time to replace it. Please post the model and serial numbers, I should be able to find you a part number and service manual. Slomo, if you knew a little more about the GTS models, you would know they do not have a clutch.

    Are you sure you installed the correct switch? Many look the same, but if you look at the back of the switch, terminals are different. If you want more help, when you post back, be sure to include the model and serial numbers of the unit and the part number of the new switch.

    When was the last time the drive belt was changed and the pulleys and idlers were serviced? If it was more than three years ago I would be replacing the drive belt and making sure all parts of the drive system are moving freely and in good condition. Star just beat me in posting a parts...

    Eager Beaver

    From my investigation your carb has a Husqvarna part number of 538408201, but is only available in Europe. This is why you won’t find it available in the US. My suggestion is to contact Husqvarna directly or the distributor you obtain your Husqvarna parts from.

    Toro self propelled push mower leaking gas

    First, you need a new mechanic. In my 50+ years of repairing engines I’ve never heard of a fuel leak being fixed by replacing a primer bulb. This guy is the reason small engine techs get a bad reputation. I wouldn’t let him work on my grand daughter’s plastic mower. If this came to me, this...

    JD D100 Transaxle fluid

    Two products I’ve used in John Deere units. I prefer the Bentonite because it is a clay base and doesn’t breakdown as easily as the JD grease. John Deere part #AM119608 Tecumseh Bentonite part #788067A/B/C

    JD D100 Transaxle fluid

    First, find another JD dealer, yours don’t know $),0=#%. Most D100 units have a transmission which use grease not oil as a lubricant. Since you don’t post the model and serial numbers, located behind the left rear wheel, I can’t tell you exactly what type of lubricant you need. I’m guessing...

    Toro self propelled push mower leaking gas

    Mower model and serial numbers are under the bagger discharge cover. First, I think you got taken by that “mechanic”. You say he replaced both the primer bulb and carb. A new carb will have the primer bulb installed, no need to replace. Second, from the picture, I’m 90% sure that the carb is...

    Two things I would be checking with this problem. First, what size battery do you have n this unit? With an engine that large you need a battery with at least 350CCA. Second, check all connections in the starting circuit. I’d be looking for a loose, dirty or bad connection, particularly in...

    That is the big question, as everyone is going to be different. Best to get on the phone and check with your local shops, as labor rates are different and it will also depend on how busy they are.

    Exmark 22.5hp blowing white

    To me it’s a classic example of a blown head gasket. Since you say you had the heads off I suspect 1 of 3 causes. Head and block surfaces not cleaned properly or head warped. Reused the head gaskets, that’s a NO, NO. Head gaskets not torqued in proper sequence or torque.

    K341s rings. 2 types?

    I hope that when you said you honed the cylinder “as smooth as glass” you didn’t mean shiny smooth. If you have no cross hatching your new rings will not seal properly and you’ll soon be burning oil.

    B&S seized 5.0 on push mower

    Because you were able to free it up using a block of wood and hammer, I suspect that the rings are fine and that the rod was probably frozen on the crankshaft. If you get it running I suggest you change the oil after 2 hours use to remove any debris in the oil. No need to put any oil in the...

    B&S seized 5.0 on push mower

    If you try putting oil in the cylinder do it very sparingly. Now that it is free really don’t need to, as the engine oil will start doing its job. To much oil at this point will not allow the plug to fire.

    B&S seized 5.0 on push mower

    Sounds to me that the mower was run without oil. After it seized the user put in fresh oil to hide their mistake. Sometimes these units can be saved, but your odds are 50/50. If you want to give it a try, this is what I would do. You really have nothing to lose. 1. Remove the spark plug. 2...
