This is a twin cylinder and one cylinder has a dead miss. It may run great today, for a week or a month then starts missing. I've replaced the coil/wire, plug and adjusted the valves. I even replaced the carburetor which it needed anyway. It acts like a collapsed lifter but it doesn't have...

Yesterday I picked up a Snapper Z mower with the Kubota D722 engine. From the injector pump, with the fuel lines removed, only one port discharges fuel. The other two do nothing. I removed the pump and all three "fingers" (they look like rollers lifters) move up/down, everything looks clean and...

My cousin has a Kohler twin cylinder CH22S that started running badly. A compression test showed 180psi in one cylinder, 30psi the other. Thinking a blown a head gasket, he pulled the 30psi valve cover and found a bent exh push rod and the intake push rod laying loose. Together he and I can't...

I just picked up an SST18 with a steering problem; it doesn't turn/steer at all. Not left, not right, neither going forward or backward. I've never worked on one of these and clueless as what activates when you turn the steering wheel. As a guess, something activates when you turn the steering...

This is an 18hp L head Briggs. It ran ok but not quiet smooth even after replacing point/condenser and plugs so next I went for the carb. I soaked it overnight, washed it thoroughly, sprayed carb cleaner in the passages, ran a FINE wire through the passages then blew it all with air. Put a kit...

Hey Berts. Yes, I'm still dealing with this junk when time allows. I can't find it but in one reply you said this ignition switch has one stand alone white wire. Mine doesn't. Hopefully the attachments get through and clear enough to see.

Well, I've been down for several days and just now got back on this project. I found the YTH-2648 is close but not exact. Reading further explains why not. To the drivers left side of the motor the wires in that section of harness are; red, white, orange, purple. I don't have the printed...

Does anyone have, or can direct me to where I can get a wiring schematic for a GT 5000 model #917.27636? The Sears site shows one in the owners manual doesn't list the wire colors. The Kohler engine gave up so I put a twin Briggs in it's place and have some wiring to figure out. It'll crank/run...
