I am looking for the mulch plug for my Husqvarna self propelled 22 inch cut mower. Model # 67522ES.I think some Craftsman models use the same plug. Anybody got one laying around somewhere? Yes I looked at eBay, nothing there. Thanks! C

Just checked Jack's, part no longer available. Ugh................

EReplacement parts does not, have not checked Jack's yet. Will do now!

I am looking for the mulching plug for my recently acquired Husqvarna push mower. The model # is 67522ES. Part has been discontunied but I have to belwive there is a used one out there somewhere. I have checked EBay many times but the one I am looking for is not out there. I think the plug I am...

Has anybody any suggestions on a decent color match for touching up the aluminum deck on my vintage HR 215 SX? I am not fully restoring it, just want to fix the large areas of scratches.

All, I am cleaning out my shed and have plenty of older Honda parts for the HX 214 and 215 series mowers from the 80’s. I have a complete GXV 140 engine along with the aluminum deck to get rid of too. Handlebars, controls and even wheels and tires. The engine needs a new oil pan gasket. Just...

I know, this is more than a year old post but I just acquired one of these mowers and the problem was the red key, bad connection caused it to somewhat melt causing a no connection electrically. A bad design in my opinion.

All, I have a nice condition mower deck for the old 214/215 SZ mowers that I want to get out of my shed. Make me an offer and pay shipping from Columbus Ohio and it is yours. I'll send pictures to an interested party.

Looks great!

Sounds like the governor arm is not set correctly. These are a bit tricky to get just right, I am sure there are YouTube video's on it.

I am certain it could be shipped, but the cost would be astronomical. I could get a weight and size to get a rough calculation. What is your zip code?

All, I have 2 Honda mowers and have decided to sell my 214SX and keep my 215SX. The 214 is a fully made in Japan example of how mowers should be built. I replaced the rings last fall so it is good to go for many more years to come. Anybody that knows these GXV engines know that the only thing...

Thread bump. This deck is available if anyone is interested. Ship from Columbus OH. Or local pickup too.

Pics of the deck.

Those are pretty straightforward and mechanical in design. Just a little adjusting would be the ticket.

I have a deck i will be pulling the motor from shortly. PM me if interested.

I have a transmission shaft. Will try to send pictures

I might spread the parts out and take a picture so all can see what I have.

I have a few engine specific parts, tell me what you are looking for and I’ll let you know.

I beleive I do have a transmission shaft for a 3 speed, I'll check today.

Thats a good idea, I'll give that a try.

All, I have a bunch of lawn mower parts for the older Honda's, 214 and 215 models. I have engine parts, wheels, gas tanks, starter recoils, a complete handlebar with controls and various other hardware sitting in a tote. I thought I would sell some of these parts individually but I am just out...

Thank you very much for the in-depth reply. Very informative. Makes me feel better about my re-ring job.

I used a very basic compression tester with one Schrader valve. Had the tester forever so I am sure the is nothing special about it, for small engines or the like.

I will verify the acceleration/deceleration theory. Are guides on these engines replaceable? Is the GXV 140 head the same as the GXV 120?

Thanks for the replies. I may try the 30W Does worn rings vs a leaking valve seal have different characteristics? Does one do on start up vs. running more than the other? oil route first.

All, I replaced the rings on my 214SX with the GXV 120 engine this year. I have not used the mower much, maybe three hours total since then. I see a little smoke still with startup and sometimes after running. Nothing like it was before I replaced the rings but still some.The cylinder looked...

I put one of my extra mowers on Craigslist if there is any interest. One owner HR 214 PX. Starts first pull as always but does have the classic worn rings where it smokes for a bit after startup. Bid starting at $69.00.

All, I checked the compression numbers on my 3 mowers, throttle wide open and decompression still functioning. All I did was remove the spark plug and pull hard several times to get these readings. GCV 190 - 91psi GXV 140 - 101PSI GXV 120 - 70PSI I installed new rings on the GXV 120 and oddly...

Thanks for that information.

Well, if that is too much for you to get a proper reading so be it. I don't understand why you would have such a tone when all I was asking was a simple question about the GCV engines. Go about your day and perhaps someone else will answer my question about the GCV engine as I was asking.

No, you do not take apart the engine. On the GXV engines you simply remove the valve cover and slide the rocker arm off of the exhaust valve, pull out the push rod and then pull the rope. Look it up, google is your friend.

Does the GCV190 engine have a decompression feature on the exhaust valve as the older GXV 120 - 140 engines? If so, that would need to be deactivated to get a proper reading for compression.

Hello all, I am thinning my herd of 3 Honda lawn mowers and decided after much thought to sell my HR 215 SX to a person who understands and appreciate these older Honda's build quality and durability. Has the GXV 140 engine, no smoking and is perfect running order. All 3 speeds work, starts on...

Glad you have found a resolution. It is too bad to hear about your troubles with this newer Honda, I suspect if you have had the long term experience with the older more robust models such as the HR series from the 80's you would feel much different about the quality of Honda. I have two HR...

I will keep my 30+ year old HR 214sx and or HR 215sx mowers until I cannot cut grass any more. I believe the old models are better than the new, just like many things now-a-days.

I have a listing on EBay for a complete mower, Masters Series HR 215SX but wondering if I would be better off just parting it out. The deck has issues as well as one wheel otherwise all works as it should, including drive and blade clutch etc. The motor runs perfectly with no smoke at all, what...

I have a 214sx and a 215sx and from a mulching perspective they are similar with the exception of the 215 has a bit more power. I can compare these directly to the newer model 217 HRX which I also have, and I do think they mulch better, but not significantly so. I think the biggest advantage is...

I do not think this plug will fit the old aluminum deck mowers, the HR 214 and HR 215 mowers correctly.

I have 2 mulching plugs and only need one. I will list one on EBay but listing here first if there is any interest. It is in great used condition, really noting can go wrong with these anyway. They are selling for around $100.00 on EBay. Listing here for $85.00 plus buyer pays for shipping. Thanks!

I am looking for an grass bag assembly for my older Honda HR 215 SX mower. I have the assembly for a HR 214 that will work but I am thinking about selling that and would prefer to sell that bag with it. Looking for one in decent shape with no holes. Dirty is OK, I can clean it if needed.

I have a Honda GXV 120 engine block and bottom pan to get off my hands to someone looking to rebuild. The block needs to have one bolt drilled out and re-tapped where the coil bolts in otherwise it is in good shape. I have not measured the cylinder bore but is is not scuffed too badly. The pan...

I'll check Home Depot or Lowes for Rustoleum.

it is the lighter of the two, silverish grey

Has anybody successfully found a paint match for these aluminium decks? I just want a small amount to fix scratches just to clean my project mower up, not go crazy and repaint the whole thing. Brush from a can would work!

Can anybody take a picture of the underside of the controls cable setup on their known original HR 215 sx so I can reference?

I called them, they could not help. Thanks anyway.

All, I recently acquired a HR215 SX and am in the process of cleaning it up for my personal use. I have a HR 214 SX and know the old product line pretty well but am stumped on this one. The 215 is equipped with the 3 speed transmission compared to the 2 speed transmission on the 214. The drive...

FWIW, I believe this to just be a normal trait for the model. I have 2 Honda mowers, a HRX217 that almost always requires 2 - 3 pulls and my old 35+ year old Honda 214 SX that starts with the first pull every time.
