Craftsman 917.376742 The wheels bend inwards at the top (oversized rear wheels). Is this normally caused by the arm brackets? I tried to push the bottom of the wheel to straighten it out, but it goes back. Is the arm bracket just weak? I'm debating if the new arm brackets will fix the issue.

I brought it in under warranty and the guy said it is considered a maintenance issue. He said dirt gets into the bushing and seizes it to the shaft. He has to remove the bushings and sand down the axle. I remember seeing a TSB on this. I called Honda customer service and opened a claim. I think...

Model No. Tnt 100-10079d Do I just set the gap when the piston is TDC?

I don't want to put too much into this old lawn mower. The threads stripped in one of the bolt holes for the intake. I don't have a tap and die set, but I can try to purchase one from Harbor Freight. I also read about Heli coil inserts. What is the least expensive way to repair this? Do you...

This is a Toro Personal Pace mower. Where does this linkage with the spring go?

This is for a Toro pace lawn mower. I wasn't getting any compression. The intake valve was stuck open. I freed it up and worked it back and forth. I noticed it looks like it is at an angle to the block. The odd thing is that if I rotate the valve, the higher side is always to the left. It is...

What is the first thing I should look at? I'm guessing it just needs to have its carb cleaned.

My battery isn't charging. I charged it with a battery charger and the mower started up and mowed the yard twice. I had to get off the seat to move some debris. When I tried to start it a second time, the battery was dead. I'm getting around 12v with the mower off and 13v with it running. The...

4.75 briggs engine on a mower The camshaft on the engine was damaged, so I replaced it. This mower hasn't ran in a year or two. It has a small pulsa carb. When I start the engine the engine surges. I can see the throttle/governor linkage moving back and forth while it is hunting. I cleaned the...

4.75 HP Briggs engine I am not getting any compression from the above referenced engine. It is used on a push lawn mower. I removed the head and manually turned the crankshaft. The valves did not open and close as they should. The weird thing is that the valves opened a closed when turning the...

This is one of those cheap push mowers with a Briggs engine (3.75 hp). I am getting spark, and I have sprayed starter fluid directly into the carb. It will not start. What else can I try? It has an over the gas tank carb. I tried starting it without the air filter assembly as well. I have not...

John Deere L110 My engine seems to hunt or search. The engine revs up and down over and over. This is only with the throttle in the high position or with the blade engaged. I have tried cleaning the carb numerous times. I even soaked it is carb cleaner the last time. I blew out the jets and...

This isn't a lawn mower, but I was hoping someone would have some general knowledge regarding small engine carbs. When I start the engine, the engine runs at high rpms and gas dumps out of the overflow. I'm thinking the float needle isn't seating properly. I tried to clean the assembly by...
