Okay as I said in my original post I don't normally work on riding mowers. This is only the 2nd Nikki carb I have encountered. That being said, I am an idiot. I was watching a YouTube video about Nikki carbs and found out I had the jet in upside down. So I turned it around and it runs great...

Bought the spark plug at O'Reilly auto parts. OEM plug. It still runs the same.

Ran the same before and after an oil change. Have tested spark in line and with a spark tester. I can run pet-4000 tester to about 8-9 mm before it dies. New spark plug resistance is good. New needle installed with oring kit. Can't adjust float as it is plastic.

Yes if you push throttle a the way up it activates the choke. However I have the engine cover off so I can see the throttle move and the choke is definitely not engaged. Even at 7/8 throttle and running fine if I engage the blades it instantly bogs down. I am going to check the flywheel key to...

Installed new plug and checked spark with pet-4000 tester. Nice blue/purple spark at 6mm gap although right at the tip of tester it was yellow. Re checked armature air gap at .010. Will run fine up to 7/8 throttle but at full it bogs down and exhaust is black like it is running rich. Choke is off

Yes new jet 796251 and o-ring kit. It is a Nikki carb and I have run it through my ultrasonic cleaner twice. I am in Oklahoma elevation about 675 feet

Ok attached red wire to battery side of solenoid, now it starts. But I have other problems. In my troubleshooting I found the intke valve Rocker arm bolt was backed out and Rocker was just hanging and the push rod guides were broken. Replaced the pushrod guides reinstalled Rockers and adjusted...

So the small broken wire attaches to the solenoid on the battery side?

I usually work on push mowers but a friend needed help with his Troy built Pony Model 13WM77KS011. With Briggs engine 331877 0142 B1. When I try to start it, it does nothing. I checked the ignition switch and it has continuity. No power at the starter. Found the start relay which was hard to get...

I love my Toro personal pace. As with any piece of equipment if you keep up on maintenance it will last a long time.

Worn drive gears from an older mower is to be expected. Metal on metal is going wear down over time. That is no reason to avoid a particular mower.

Replaced carburetor runs great. Thank you Rivets for your help.

Okay I took the muffler off and tried to run it. Same problem, there is little to no carbon build up in exhaust port.

Will try thanks.

I have a customers Echo trimmer SRM-225 S/N S89312743094. Problem is it only idles and only with choke on or partially on. Compression is right at 100 psi. Cylinder looks good, spark plug is ok, spark arrestor is clean. New fuel/oil mix, it has good spark and I put a carb kit in it. Fuel hoses...

I love my Mag 1000. It will balance to a nat's ***.
