In the last two weeks I've done many things, but in the meantime the current problem is this definitely getting spark to the spark plug after spraying carburetor cleaner into the intake while turning the key. The only thing that happens is backfire through the carburetor or popping the engine...

Battery was dead when I went to start engine about 2 hours after shutting down following 2 hours of mowing. Suspect battery is junk (it is at least 3 years old). BUT…when I charged it overnight, it came up to 12.5V and started engine, and here’s the thing, when I measured V at battery while...

I have a FD671D Kawasaki 23 hp engine on my Turf Tiger Scags I am going to be needing to replace it in the near future. Starting to blow smoke. Does anyone know if an FD750D will be an exact fit for replacement. So far all I can tell is that the 750 has more HP then the 671. I am aware of the...

Engine has been maintained but recently locked up. Any suggestions?

The engine I was working on is a Kohler Command CV22S. It is a 2001 and running great. I had just changed the oil and was test running the engine. During the checking of the oil level I noticed that it was a little foamy. That should have set off an alert. I continued noting that the oil...

I think I posted something about this a couple weeks ago. On startup after sitting idle for a season this John Deere D140 riding mower with a B&S 24hp motor revved up so high I thought it was going to blow up. The governor went full throttle and would not go to an idle. I took the engine apart...

I have a Toro 3072 mower with what I believe is a Toro engine model lc1p65fc engine. Presently it will start first pull and run perfectly. It will not restart when warm. It will sometimes stutter, cough and maybe start and run ok. I've run out of things to check. Is the attached photo of the...

2 of the 3 bolts that attach the engine to the mower deck ripped out of the mower deck of my self propelled push mower. What is the fix for this? I don't have access to a welder.

I have a GX200 6.5 Hp powered pressure washer that is too difficult to pull-start. I took it on as a project, but things are not looking good. I've checked the valve lash (to make sure the anti-compression was opening the valve a bit) and the crank key (to make sure kickback wasn't from...

engine shuts off when I engage pto. the 3 light on circuit go out at the same time. tried a new pto switch and brake safety switch but did the same.

My mower is losing power when going downhill, not sure what is causing the issue. It runs fine going uphill and on the flat, but when I am going downhill, the engine will suddenly lose power and sometimes stall out. When I start it back up, I usually get a puff of black smoke. I changed the oil...

No impact to blade just was backing out turned a bit with front wheels elevated, bumped kinda hard into upright & engine cut off. Has been over 2H & won't restart.

I have a gx620 on my Hustler. It's over 20 years old. It started a oil leak this spring. With mowing season over I want to take care of it. My question is, seeing that the gx620 is no longer available, should I try to find a replacement engine or have the present engine repaired. I see there is...

This topic came up after I started a thread about my starter on this engine. Seemed like a new thread is in order: One or more significant oil leaks have existed for sometime causing quite a mess on the entire upper engine (mostly hidden by the engine cover). Txmowman pointed to the breather...

I took the engine off a John Deere lt155 and put it on a swisher pull behind. I pulled all the wiring harness, relays, and safety switches off and I can get the engine to run but I want to eliminate all the wiring that I can. I just want to be able to start and stop the engine with the key...

Does anyone know a part # for this carb? I have a Troy-Bilt with this engine and it has no carb on it. The Briggs website wasn't much help and neither was the Troy-bilt site. Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm trying to fix a friends rider. It has a B&S 22 hp v-twin 'professional' series engine, model 44U677-0002 G1. It has a single barrel carb. The problem: When he's mowing, the engine will run fine, but then fade out, spit thru the carb once or twice, then come back and be fine for a little...

Have a Scag SW36-14KA with a Kawasaki one cylinder OHV engine on it. There is no label on the engine for information. In the parts breakdown of the mower this unit should have a flathead engine. Was there a serial number or year that the mower came with an OHV engine?

So I was able to find a TB110 diagram on jack's site, but it doesn't include the engine. Here is my engine label, it has lots of odd numbers on them but I can't seem to successfully search any of them to get an engine diagram. Did I miss a different label or is something else going on here? I'm...

Engine was running fairly good but started surging so I replaced the carburetor and crankcase air breather tube and now the engine produces a lot of smoke and will not stay running. Any ideas?

I just picked up a fairly nice looking 3311X6S (I am guessing on the 6 - can't remember for sure). I was little surprised to see it was a 1980's model - by the looks I had assumed 1970s or earlier. The previous owner told me about all the trouble had trying to get it to run and how it had sat...

I have an Kawasaki® FR691V Twin 23 hp/726cc. It is on an ariens ikon xd 52. I want to replace it with a FS691V. Will this work as a replacement? The FS engine is slightly large. That is about all I know.

I have a Kohler engine KT725-3031 that I can't get to run. I've replaced the fuel pump and carburetor and it will only run with carburetor cleaner for just a second. Fuel is getting to the carburetor, at least to fuel filter. It has a thermostat assembly 32 755 27-s that attaches to the side...

RZ5424 about 15 ys old. Runs fine. Had a fuse blowing issue first. Which led to lots of new switches and parts thrown at it. Two things. Release brake engine stalls, engage pto engine stalls. Has to be a safety switch issue. Tested them all good. By passed seat switch. Engine runs well...

I have posted the problems that I have with my BADBOY 2009 Lightning not stating. Here is a new thread that I am hoping will get me some new help. It starts and runs until the engine warms up gets hot them dies and will not restart until it cools down or about a 30 mins to a hour. I have...

I had problems starting my JD zero turn with B&S Vtech. Would start only if I put drops of fuel on air filter. This got worse until I finally changed carb with OEM. Ran great for a couple days then would die while running as if out of gas. I had put on a manual gas shutoff while swapping carb...

Manual says vanguard full synthetic 15w50 is preferred, 5w30 synthetic also an option. My question: the vanguard costs more. Walmart has Mobil 1 15w50 and Valvoline 5w30 for less. Would either of these be o.k. to use other than the Vanguard? Opinions appreciated. This is on a Bradley stand...

M# LGT2654 Product # 960450047 S# 061815A031116 Briggs 407777 0274 G5 A couple of issues here. This engine has the smaller crank because it had the manual PTO. The rider it's on now, once had an electric PTO. Using the crank & deck pulley, the deck belt pulley rubs the drag links when I turn...

How do you remove the oil drain hose on the Toro Engine 24.5 hp without breaking the holder. I have tried pulling down on the hose nothing moves. Tried using pliers to turn the hose and pulling down still not working. Toro support is a joke for any help.

Update - Toro MX4250 74760 315002651 June 2015 24.5hp 708cc Loncin 2P77F engine. After checking everything, I bought new coils.

I have a new (4.2 hours) 19 day old 2024 Ferris ISX2200 w/28hp Vanguard engine. When delivered I asked the delivery guy if everything had been checked and he stated that it was "ready to mow". After mowing for two hours, the mower was parked in the shop. Next day I decided to check the oil...

So what is the purpose of the engine brake? I only found out about this feature recently. It seems kind of pointless to me. Who cares if your motor takes a little longer to stop spinning? It seems like that would not effect me at all? Is there some benefit to this feature that I'm not missing...

I have changed a lot of oil in my days, most of them pretty old small engines and a lot in pretty poor condition (Troy Bilt tiller rehab is my current hobby). Had a first today, a friend had me pick up his Craftsman T130 riding mower and try to bring it back to life. It had been parked under...

Particulars: John Deere riding lawnmower, D140, 22hp Briggs and Stratton engine. the mower was started after sitting for a season, and with the throttle in the low speed position the engine revved up so high it sounded like it was about to explode. Shut it down, repeated the start process and it...

I have a JD 345 with FD611V engine that needs a rebuild. JD says they can’t get rebuild kits for it any longer, Kawasaki says it can’t give me parts information because it is a JD proprietary engine built for JD, I contacted them to see what air cooled engine would interchange with it……… Does...

Friend of mine called and asked me if I ever heard of this situation and if I could explain it. He has a Bobcat zero turn with a 24 hp Koehler engine. He drained the oil and when he started to add new oil, he could hear bubbling noises coming from his carb. The noise sounded like someone was...

Hi all. I need to remove the engine from my Hayter Hobby 41 mower. The engine is a Briggs and Stratton unit: Model: 94502 Type: 5911-02 Code: 88072804 The frictiod disc (underneath, where the blade mounts) needs to be removed from the crank to get the engine out. I suspect it is a push fit with...

I recently bought a cheap used Bolens 11A-020W765 mower with the 125cc Briggs 08P502-0165 engine, which has the plastic carb and foam air filter. I got it for trim work, but before I needed to use it for that, I needed to use it to mow a small yard. The first time I tried to mow with it, it ran...

I put a new battery into the mower and it worked fine. But the red plastic cover over the positive terminal was shot - so I ordered some covers. Today I installed them on both terminals - r/b. The starter gets juice but it doesn't turn over. Sounds like a stuck solenoid on a 1966 Ford I used...

Engine wont start on 130G32 0125 F1. I think its the oil sensor wire but cant find other end. This end runs under the gas tank but not sure where i need to look for the other end and what replacement part if any I will need.

I have a Briggs and Stratton engine on a log splitter that needs to be replaced. I got it for free but the engine is locked up due to the old owner running it without oil. Its on a Huskee 22 ton log splitter. Honestly it looks like a push mower engine but I wasn't sure if one would work. I did...

I hope this is the place to ask this question. It's a bit open ended. While mowing his lawn, my father in law heard a clunk and noticed that what appeared to oil was coming from the bottom/back of his mower. It's a Husqvarna MZT-61 with a 27hp Briggs engine. My question is two part. 1. With...

The engine started surging after running and cutting for about 10 minutes. RPMs up and down and then had to engage choke to keep it running but RPMs would still hunt and then it would die. I installed: New carburetor New air filter New fuel lines New fuel pump New fuel filter New gas Removed and...

I retired about 3 years ago after 48 years as a Ford/Lincoln Mercury tech. Now I spend my time fixing other things. I have a neighbor with a 1999 Exmark Lazer Z, model LZ22LKA604 and serial #204513 and engine #FD661D003939. It is a Kawasaki V twin, water cooled. Over the years I have...

Mower: Cub Cadet Pro Z 100S Engine: Kohler EZT750. ~385 hrs. I noticed on my last mow, that when I shut off the engine, it stops more quickly than it did last season. Or even two weeks ago (when I previously mowed). Should I be concerned? Oil is fresh, and level is good. One change from last...

Greetings to all... Perfect operation for all these years of my well maintained 1991 JD 332 diesel. Past summer the engine was stopping with the fuel solenoid turning it off. After 2-3 hours or after overnight, I could restart the engine but after 10-15 minutes the fuel solenoid would stop the...

Can anyone tell me what these are for? (circled) This is my exact engine and application - 128M02-0423-F1 I bought a NOS Briggs and Stratton short block engine that included a gasket set. PS Since originally posting this I was able to figure out some of it. One is the intake manifold to...

I have a Ferris IS4500z (Model IS4500ZC28061) - 61" with the 28 HP Cat diesel. Had a catastrophic failure and it looks like a rod broke a playing card size hole through the block. Our local CAT dealer quoted me something just shy of $7000 to replace that engine which is prohibitive but the rest...

I have a 356447-0415-G1 horizontal V twin Briggs&Stratton engine on a Walker S18 mower. Sometimes the main pulley driving the mower from the engine does not spin. If I stop the mower and manually spin the main drive a little back/forth, and then restart the engine, it will spin. It appears like...

My 2022 Troy Bilt Pony lawn tractor starts and runs fine. I can engage the mower deck with no problem. But whenever I release the parking brake and engage the clutch, the engine bogs down and eventually dies. Doesn't matter what speed is selected, where the throttle is set, or what gear is...

After getting this unit running, I go to test the mower part of the tractor and when I engage the PTO switch (pull out and flip up), the mower goes to shut down. It's as if the key is being turned off. I do have the wiring diagram. And side note, see that the seat connector has a piece of wire...

I have a Briggs and Stratton model 17AC2ACG055, 21 hp intex engine that I’m suspecting needs a camshaft. It was cranking and running great then suddenly it was hard to start. The engine would barely turn over, sometimes it would act as though the engine was locked up. I’m guessing this is due...

I have a 19hp Briggs and Stratton engine on a Husqvarna 2042 YTH. I have changed the plug, cleaned fuel tank, cleaned carburetor, and checked the seat switch. The issue is that after about an hour of mower the engine will stutter/bog down. I can release the blade switch the engine will...

I have at last found a mower that seems to suit my requirements. Al-ko 520. Key start. Side chute. But it has a choice of engines. Honda, B&S, Longcin. What is best? Thanks.

I looked at a John Deere 425 this morning. It has the FD620D engine. The serial number tag is gone from the mower so I can't date the mower. I'm reluctant to buy it until I'm sure the engine has steel cams, which I believe are post-1998. The mower has 1435 hours on it. I didn't know where...

My Honda HRN 21 inch mower had some debris & caked up oil on the block of the engine and I was wondering if it’s safe to spray on a degreaser ( heat the engine first?) on the engine and then spray the entire engine with water from a pump sprayed.Is this the best way to clean the mower?

Just curious if a Kawasaki engine out of a JD 175 which is a 14hp will fit/work in a JD 240. These two lawn tractors are about the same age relative to years produced. I know the 240 had a pressurized oil lubrication system and oil filter but not sure if the 175 has the oil filter. Looks like...
