I'm wondering how much thinner the cheap china made Briggs and Stratton piston rings are going to get. I measured the top ring at .048. The older rings are .090. What's next.

Several years ago I sold a mower to a guy that was attending college. I started the mower to show him it runs. The next day he brings it back and tells me I sold him a piece of junk, he used it for 30 minutes and it quit running and it wouldn't start. I reach over and take the gas tank cap...

Take a chainsaw and cut the trees down then you won't need any mulching blades and you also won't have to clean the leaves out of your gutters.

STARTECH. I had the same problem a couple times with the fuel line from the tank collapsing and stopping the fuel flow. It's a heck of a lot cheaper than putting a electric fuel pump on just to find out it's the fuel line.

Take the spark plug out and connect a plastic coated wire to the end of the plug wire and hold the end and pull the starter cord to check if your coil is good.

The best way to avoid mulching is called A CHAIN SAW. Cut the trees down and you wont have to worry about mulching.

There sure is a kit that will solve you whole leaf problem, it's called a chain saw. Cut the trees down and you get rid of the leaf problem permanently. You also wont have to clean your gutters out either.

Get rid of the mower and save yourself money.

Check the flywheel key.

Shorten the governor spring.

It could be the armature needs cleaned, maybe new brushes or the solenoid is going bad.

The quickest way to find out if you have spark is take the sparkplug out, hold the plug wire and crank the engine over.

Put an inner tube in it.

Try a different coil.

Cheap is cheap. You get what you pay for.

I used to own a 69 roadrunner 383 4 speed. The 509 purple shaft cam is a sweet cam for any big block mopar. I also had a 73 dart sport. I built a 500 inch stroker, 14.5 diamond pistons, edelbrock victor heads with max wedge ports, erson special grind cam, 1050 alky dominator, 391 gears, 727...

Check the fuel shutoff solenoid on the bottom of the carb. It might be going bad and it will shut off the fuel.

There is a sucker born every minute. The dealership is the last place I would ever stop for anything.

Go to napa for the filter.

This is just my opinion but just hearing the name worldmower sounds cheap. I hope you don't regret buying it when it needs repairs. It's like buying a foreign car, you can buy them cheap but you will pay up for the parts. Good luck.

Parts availability for some of these cheap made mowers is and can be a problem. Word to the ignorant, when they buy cheap, they think they are saving money but in the long run they will wind up spending more on it than it's worth.

Until reading this post, I have never heard of worldmower. Just hearing the word sounds cheap. I used to work on alot of riders and zero turn mowers. I have a JD 1435 diesel 72 inch deck, 4 wheel drive. It's almost like driving a car. It Appears to be very well made. People get what they pay...

Check the fuel line from the tank.

Back in 78 I was looking for a car. A guy at work had a 70 dodge challenge RT plum crazy 383 magnum. He purchased it new in 70. One night I tried to pass him and he was gone, he embarrassed me bad. I didn't buy it. He told me he sold it to a young kid and the kid hit a power pole sideways and...

So much for intelligence. Guy comes to work, tells me his mower wouldn't start so he beats it with a sledgehammer. I said, Matt, what the hell did you do that for, you know I work on mowers. Now you have to buy another one. He says it made him feel good. I didn't even advertise and I had...

I agree with Rivets, a good cleaning and replace pump diaphragm

If it is rare , what are you going to do if you just happen to need parts and cannot find any. Dont waste money on fixing it. Get an engine that has parts availability.

Get a different mower.

That grayish tint on the dipstick, when you ran it low on oil, the rings scarred the cylinder walls. The motor is screwed.

To avoid your neighbor from accusing you of shotty work, tell him to junk the mower and buy one that's ready to go. When you finally get the mower running, he will find something wrong with it. To avoid disappointment , don't do anything for anyone.

I'm wondering if he made it to work ok.

Fram FRAM filters are nothing but a painted piece of junk. I have had trouble with the internal oil seal coming out.

Go to NAPA and buy the same oil filter that it has now. NAPA has them so stop being picky. There, problem solved.

According to him he was the brains of the operation or he needed a brain operation.

Alot of people i have met especially in the military, the smarts waved bye bye to them. He must have been hit with the STUPID STICK.

I served in the army as a mechanic. The military accepts all kinds of stupid people. I witnessed this. One black guy refused a lieutenants order the get back to his work area. He recieved 90 days in a military prison, reduction to pay grade E-1 and a dishonorable discharge. He wanted half of his...

With the recent stock decline of Anheuser Busch Inbev and target, how will you celebrate FDQCC day June 1st. Would you hire them to cut your lawn.

Like anything that people buy, the manufacturer wants it to wear out so you have to spend more MONEY. What would you rather do, spend money to fix the hydro or spend money on new oil.

Apparently the manufacturer must have ran out of operator instruction booklets.

That reminds me of a coworker years ago, he tells me his pushmower wouldn't start yesterday so he beats it with a hammer. I said, matt, what the hell did you do that for, you know i work on mowers, all you had to do is bring it to me. Now you have to go buy another mower. He says he didn't...

Kind of like pussy cats.

I had a couple 69 roadrunners i raced and a 73 dart sport with a 500 inch stroker on alcohol. The 1050 dominator was built by Ken Jones from walnut hill Illinois. I think this guy sleeps with a copy of national dragster under his pillow.

Thanks.

Back in the early 90's i had an old 3 horse briggs on a push mower. I took the head off and shaved it on concrete. It had so much compression, i had to stand on it with both feet and pull it with both hands to start it. I was dragracing and i put methanol in the tank and it ran great. I called...

Priceless.

Several years ago i used to work on (alot) of mowers and people wouldn't stop coming to me for help with their mower problems. One day this guy stops and buys a used push mower. He was shown how to start it. The next day he brings it back and tells me i sold him a piece of junk. He says he used...
