nope not hydro locked i took sparkplug out and it was still hard

well, a few weeks later the engine is pulsing, no matter what the adjustment on the needles :l

my snapper sr1028 with a B&S 28A707 engine just won't idle smooth! it pulses no matter what the needle is set to (there is only one needle). and when it is a little bit below half throttle it the engine bogs down. any help would be appreciated asap, thanks.

the model-type-code is 28A707-0118 01-9401134D thanks

I have a snapper SR1028 and I think it is getting too much gas. i just need the proper adjustments for the needles. any help is appreciated, thanks

I got a Snapper SR1028 a few days ago and yesterday I cleaned the carburetor because it had some crud in the bowl. I reassembled it and there was a lot of gas going to the carburetor now, which was a good sign because there was no gas going to the carb yesterday. I pull-started it a few times...

sorry to say it, but you probably have a transmission issue 😱😭

lol

yup

and now when I crank it over with the key it will turn a bit, but then stop, and the solenoid makes a squealing noise

I didn't take the video

haha, no, that was just a video I found on what it sounded like, it IS a riding lawn mower

yeah, I put a gasket on THIS time, it took me hours to get the OHV valve cover off

essentials list: 1. get a weed whacker, Stihl, OR CRAFTSMAN 2. get an edger (optional) any brand is good 3. grass fertilizer and a fertilizer spreader SCOTTS 4. new lawnmower blades (if the mower is old, used, or you want a really clean cut) 5. Bluetooth work headphones or AirPods (if you don't...

well, depending on the property size, you might need more or less tools. how big is the property? how much of the property do you have to mow? is your lawn mower new or used and old?

you can trust Kawasaki, you're better off not even touching a Kohler engine, they really arent that good

this is what it sounds like

are there weights on the tires?

do you think the banging noise is a problem? I'm guessing it's just cuz I'm used to it running on valves gapped at 0.09

I found the leak, and I DID have to take the exhaust off, but honestly, the hardest part of this WHOLE repair was getting the OHV COVER OFF?, the head bolts weren't hard to get off and the exhaust bolts were a piece of cake. I started it late at night and I noticed it does have a slight more...

so, yesterday I replaced the head gasket and at first, I couldn't see where the leak was, but then I found this...

all right

nice! gotta love those craftsman riding lawn mowers!

so, when I get the head gasket sometime tomorrow, is there anything I should look out for or do or be careful about?

Yes i do

yep, we ordered a head gasket

our house was 5 mins away, we drove slow on a road

I use this one on my older craftsman mower: https://www.gccpd.com/product.asp?itemid=65572&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIm6PXovmR9wIVuRmtBh0ykAmqEAQYASABEgIc3fD_BwE I love it!

I will never in my life buy a Kohler engine ;)

I got a craftsman T1600 yesterday and coming home, I noticed that it was smoking whitish/bluish smoke after it runs for 2 minutes, I'm not really sure what the problem is the seller said he had just replaced the spark plug, and changed the oil, not including the filter. any help appreciated! -...

bruh, those engines suck

it doesnt work better bruh

exactly my experience ;)

there was wear on the inside when I took it apart, and it definitely was harder to start when I didn't have seafoam, much easier to start and fires right up on the first pull

amen to that ;)

well, none of the above were the problem if you can believe it! before I was working on this, I put seafoam in the oil as directed, and looked up a few videos of what happens when you put seafoam in your oil, the white smoke was just carbon buildup burning off in the engine! after 5 minutes of...

Murray Briggs and Stratton 5HP Quantum Power Push-Mower blows white smoke and barely dies down after startup, I think the carburetor setup is messed up but I can't find any sources showing the carburetor diagram. Any help is appreciated. MODEL TYPE. CODE. 124702-3106-01 92042759 Lanerdude9

just look at how many people have the knocking problems: https://lawnmowerforum.com/threads/kohler-courage-v-twin-knocking-sound-when-cranking.67170/#post-415881 https://lawnmowerforum.com/threadloom/search?query=kohler%20courage&tab=3963 and many more to come :(

the new Kohler aren't like the old shaking ones, one life lesson: NEVER BUY A KOHLER COURAGE ON ANYTHING, but the command is a much better engine, courage engines make an unending knocking sound and have lots of problems to be addressed ;)

champions also seem to have a higher heat range, but get hot quicker on my engine, probably because we are go-kart tuning it so it will be at full throttle a lot of the time when we accelerate :)

different socket sizes to turn, and bkr insulator is thicker and heavier duty.

ok, for me the most common sparkplug is champion H10C, I have quite a few JDs with those shakin' kohlers hahaha

bro, you smashed him, great job defeating this scammer

what brand of sparkplug do you prefer to buy? i have decided to do an outer rebuild of the engine.

hahahahahahaha

ok, thanks
