    Hrc216 transmission repair guide?

    I have a bent driveshaft on my HRC216k3hxa, I plan to replace it with one from a parts donor machine, with leaking seals that need to be fixed, but it has 1000 hours on it, Sonia was planning to fix the new one later. How hard is it to replace just the main driveshaft?

    Why can't I find a HRC216k3HXA anywhere?

    I called all the dealers, and other than one place who told me 1150 on phone and tried charging me 1200, why can't I find one? Dealer keeps saying they are coming in but they don't know when...

    How do I replace the spark plug boot on a GXV160?

    I ordered a replacement boot since mine is cracked and have no idea how this goes on. It looks like it has a screw molded into the part where the wire goes in... How do I remove the old one and install this new one? Edit: I called a different dealer and he told me how to change it. Sorry, mods...

    Can you replace the choke lever on a Honda carb?

    Can you replace the choke lever on a Honda GCV160 carb? The one I got to replace old one is an autochoke, and this engine uses a manual choke. :frown: Can you swap the plastic choke lever?

    How do I adjust the valves on my HRC216? (GXV160 engine)

    I was wondering if someone, like Robert, can post pictures or part of the maintenance manual, on how to do this? I know clearance should be at 0.006" on intake and at 0.008" on the exhaust.

    How do you clean the wheel rachets and adjust the throttle cable on a HRC216?

    Can someone tell me how to do this? I am not in the mood to leave my Honda at the dealer to do something I feel I should be able to do myself.

    Spiders

    Since my Avatar is a spider, I figured I would start a thread about them. I seen him in my little wishing well in front yard and wished I could have had him as a pet! :laughing: His name was Bob the Spider. That was 2 years ago. Last year, I had a black and white one, on my birch tree but...
