    Coil testing

    I’m working on a Troy bilt weed eater tb575-ec four stroke with a no spark condition. The switch is good and not grounded. The coil from spark plug cap to ground on coil reads 2.2k ohms. I read it should be 2.5-5.0k ohms. Is mine bad or close enough? I cleaned the magnets on the flywheel and...

    Strange rocker arm observation

    I am working on a B&S 21HP single cylinder model 331877 1449g1 and noticed while checking valve lash that at TDC between the compression and power stroke the gap was good however after rotating the engine to TDC between exhaust and intake, both rockers are tight. Is this correct? Thanks.

    Briggs and Stratton valve push rod

    I'M working on my sons Ariens riding mower with a B and S engine 31C707-0603-G1 and suspected a bad head gasket. Ordered it and when removing the push rods I noticed one was bent.

    B & S valve adjustment

    I have a Briggs and Stratton 21 hp 331877 1449 g1 that i suspect the valves need adjustment. Does any one know what the gap should be? Also, is there a place to get a shop manual for this engine? The owners manual is worthless.

    B & S fuel pump question

    I have a Briggs and Stratton 21 hp engine model 331877 type 1449 G1 and removed the two hoses from the fuel pump to remove the engine shroud. One is from the fuel tank and the other is from the crankcase which I assume is to actuate a diaphragm in the pump. I didn't pay attention to which went...

    Ariens lawn tractor brakes

    I just acquired an Ariens lawn tractor, model 936047 but the brakes are kaput. I took the brake assembly off and found what I would consider the actuator pins are frozen and do not move. Notice under the model number 42 GRAR DRIVE. Well it is a 42 GEAR DRIVE. So much for proof reading! The...

    Hour meter for Craftsman tractors

    I have a 2010 Craftsman YTS 3000 that did not have an hour meter but the dash has a space for it and the wiring harness also.

    Craftsman YTS3000 Deck Belt

    My blades do not spin when engaged so I ordered a new deck belt assuming the old one had stretched. Received it today and no difference. The only other thing I can think of is the cable to engage the the tension pulley so I ordered it. Is there a place to find the length of this cable when new...
