I have a manual on the motor, it covers ECV630, ECV 749 and a couple more. The manual says there is a compression release. I frequently have trouble starting, the starter engages, turns a little, and stops. Usually if I try a few times it works. If not, boosting the battery gets it running...

I may need a brake pad/pads for this mower, and can't find it listed anywhere. The rear axle parts diagrams don't include the brakes. I'm not sure I need it yet, but was looking it up just in case. There is one disc, on the left side of the axle. have 2 of these, one at my house, the other...

I found what some have said is the model # sticker, and it has 17101226. I can't find anything that says that's a model number. The sticker is on the frame by the right front wheel. It's a Kohler 25hp powered mower made in 2016. I can't find anything that says it's a model number. Any...

engine model 091412 E type 0130 code 060110 Y Fuel flows, kill switch set to run. No fire, even with starting fluid. Can't detect spark with gap tester or bulb. Wire from magneto to kill switch measures dead ground, even unhooked from switch. Lots of covers to remove, but I got to the coil...

I've had this generator for a few years, it's worked ok, but the carb leaks. I used a pressure tester, and from 5 lbs, you can see it slowly drop. I cleaned the carb, needle, seat, no change. It was also hunting some, not settling to a steady RPM. At some point in the past, I used a cable...

Of course you know it's back, or you couldn't see this! I was getting worried about this site. Glad to see it back up.

Ok, I removed the carb and bowl. I cleaned the needle and seat. I reassembled needle and float, inverted, hooked up pressure tester, and gave it 5lbs. I can see the needle slowly moving down. The needle has a spring between it and the float. If I press on the float, compressing the spring...

I saw this on Amazon and bought it, after seeing many here recommending pressure testing carbs. It came with no instructions. I searched online but haven't found it yet. I can see how to use it to test for leaking float valve. Easy enough, hook up to fuel inlet on carb, apply pressure(turn on...

I have a Ryobi 18" electric chain saw. It was free. I feel like the chain dulls quickly. I put a new chain on, Oregon brand from Home Depot. I spent a day cutting up oak from a tree I had cut down, and the chain seemed dull. I was dealing with the stump, and tried sharpening, and had some...

I think that's the model #. The 7 is almost gone. It takes me a bunch of pulls to get this started. The label says full choke, prime, pull with throttle open. I get better results no throttle, 1/2 choke, but it still takes a bunch of pulls to start. Once started, and with a minute to warm...

I have a Craftsman R1000. The model sticker says 247.290001, ser 1e135b20658. It's a rear engine rider, not a zero turn. I've been trying to find out how to adjust tension in the blade belt. The mower seems to throw the belt. I have replaced the belt several times and the guide rod on the...

I've been working on a snapper scrambler 33" zero turn. We mowed with it today for over an hour, then the blade disengaged, and won't engage. I am told the switch has been replaced a couple times in the last year. I'm headed there tomorrow to pull and test the switch, and test the clutch. I...

Got a Generac 0066720. Runs nice and smooth, but the governor is off. It was surging/hunting, and I adjusted the governor per directions I found on youtube. Loosen nut on governor arm, open throttle to full, gov arm fully in that direction, rotate gov shaft cw. It didn't move much, but now...

I picked up a toro recycler 22 with Briggs 128m02-3425-b1 engine. Compression was very weak, I lapped the valve seats and it started up and ran great. I did a 10 minute or so test cut, changed the drive belt and cut my front yard. Ran great. I changed the oil, and it hasn't started since...
