    Here a spark plug, there a sparkplug...

    These were usually OEM Honda installed plugs. As I said I could not explain the why, I can only say what happened and after replaceing the plugs with Champion had no more problems. They only reason I can put on the problem was there was a problem with the resistor in the plugs. By the way the...

    Here a spark plug, there a sparkplug...

    I cannot explain the why. I can only say what was done and how it was fixed. The only explaination I can think of was the plug was partially fouled. Yes I don't understand why the timing was changed, only that it was. And that by changing the plug the issue was corrected. I replaced the plug...

    Here a spark plug, there a sparkplug...

    This was especially Honda push mowers Yes more than one, would be hard to start, pop back thru the carburetor, pop out the muffler, plus pull the cord back. Changed the plug mower would start easily and run good.

    Here a spark plug, there a sparkplug...

    After getting the starter cord ripped out of my hand by equipment with NGK plugs, I have decided NGK stands for No Good Kind. By the way replaced the NGK with any other plug and unit ran perfectly.

    Honda gx690 low power

    Honda just loves to play games with the small engines. Their old ignition modules needed to be grounded to kill the engine, new ignition modules need to be grounded to run. Yeah I found out the hard way.

    I just put those on

    Have seen many blades come in that way, "just sharpen please". Sorry you need new blades those are dangerous. "Why?". Well you tell me when a piece flys off and cuts your leg or worse. "But new blades are expensive". ??????? The best one I liked was the "mow & till". The customer hit something...

    Kawasaki FD731V AS09 ignition/coils testing question

    There may be an Igniter used on this engine according to the service manual. Best to check them before condeming the coils. If it is on a John Deere the also have a control box that will kill the spark. Ask me how I know that one gave me a fit. I attempted to attach the service manual -- but too...

    b&s 12.5hp flathead riding lawn mower engine smoking - looking for suggestions

    Most pistons used in small engines use at least three rings. Two compression and one oil. Athough the second ring is regarded as a compression ring it also does a little oil control. If the engine has been fed clean air the compression rings will show little wear and the engine will have good...

    1.25" crank

    Not a generator engine as they use a tapered crankshaft. Water pumps use a threaded shaft

    I was wrong. electric start still not working.

    Remove spark plug wire, turn mower on side -- with carburetor up -- very carefully watch the bolt in the center of the crankshaft, turn the blade, if it is not true and goes in a circle the crank is bent. Sometimes it is easier to have someone pull the startter rope while someone watches the...

    B&S seized 5.0 on push mower

    It sounds as if the mower was purchased and started without oil, after it stopped the owner then added the oil he was supposed to have put in before starting it. If that is what happened the connecting rod seized to the crankshaft, the connecting rod overheated and deformed causing the bolts to...

    B&S 10/12HP throttle repair

    See if this helps. In your pictures the spring appears at an angle, it should be limp and in a straight line when in the idle position and pull on the governor arm as the throttle is opened. It also appears the bracket is not properly attached to the block, the top bolt is missing, this may be...

    Convert GAS Briggs V-Twin to DIESEL?

    Don't think it is possible. Not enough compression, the block is not strong enough to handle the compression increase, the rods are too weak, no way to put injectors in the head. As for a turbo many farm tractors have not used a turbo the AC D19 was the first, then other manufacturers started...

    Safeties in cold weather - safety circuit

    Since the seat switch is normally closed this means it will ground the magneto when it is added to the circuit this is when the clutch is released or mower put in gear. I would believe the seat was frozen and could not open the switch. Have had that happen often. This often occurred when the...

    Toro Titan MyRide 60 inch no start

    Most manufacturers but not all put the seat switch in place to kill the ignition when you get out of the seat. This is so you can't get off while the engine is running unless the pto is disengaged and the control levers are out or start position. This is so you don't get run over or chopped up...

    Predator 9500 Generator backfires like a shotgun on shutdown

    The afterfire solenoid is used to prevent fuel from entering the muffler on shutdown. The reason it is used is the exact reason you are having. Don't forget as the unit ages deposits can build up in the muffler and as the engine slows is is still pulling fuel thru the engine, without the...

    Seized up??

    The clutch has two bearings. One is in the pulley so it can stop what every it is driving. The other is in the stationary housing This bearing centers the clutch and allows the crank to turn without turning the housing and tearing off the electric feed to the clutch coil. If the second bearing...

    It has been many years ago, but I had a similar issue with a pressure washer. The customer stated it just quit. After taking the base pan off found the crank gear had sheared the "key" off and did not drive the cam. Talked with Briggs and they stated the gears failed especially on pressure...

    NEW TO ME GRAVELY ZT60HD

    As already suggested check the top speed of the engine. Often the bowden wire will slip and not run the engine wide open. As for the vibration you state it appears without the mower clutch engaged. With that information check the transmission brive belt for a narrow spot or check the idler for...

    Forward Control Cable Routing - Gravely WAW 1034

    It has been years since I have worked at one of the WAW mowers. I believe you are right in that the cable goes on that pulley and pulls the arm to engage the belt. Then the spring you have removed "disengages" the belt. Be aware the adjustment for the belt tension is at the handle bars. Often...

    Constant flooding

    Be sure the bowl vent for the carburetor is not blocked or restricted. Sometimes the air cleaner gasket or even the air cleaner plate restrict or block the bowl vent and allow the carburetor to flood.

    Broke my mower, dang!

    Tip the mower on it's side and check to see if the blade shaft is bent. If the blade turns this will be easy to see as you watch the center of the blade or compare where the each end of blade passed a spot on the housing. If good review the manual for a fuse or circuit breaker.
