    Wheel Upgrade HRS216?

    Honda HRS216 with plastic wheel centers. Is it possible to replace these wheels with the 9" ball-bearing-equipped wheels that come on the HRX217? I've got wheels that look like this https://www.amazon.com/Honda-44710-VL0-L02ZB-Front-Wheel/dp/B00GXQSOD0 And would like wheels like this...

    More power for a GCV160?

    Hi there all. I've got a Honda 21" push mower with the GCV160 engine. I'm having a heck of a time mowing my yard as the engine bogs down with all my grass clippings and stalls out. I use the stacked twin mulching blade as an "upgrade" over the original single blade and leave the mulched...

    HRS216K5PKA Upgrades?

    Hi all, I've got a 2014 HRS216K5PKA, original single blade. I'd like to replace the blade with something better for mulching. I don't see a part number on Honda's website for their OEM mulching blade to fit this unit. Can I use blades for an HRR mower, instead of the HRS? Or is there an upgrade...

    HRS216 mods

    just bought a new HRS216K5PKA. Did a great job on the lawn today, but I like to tweak things. I'm a big fan of mulching. Would I be better served using the Honda dual blade kit, or getting a Gator blade? Also, does anyone make a more quiet muffler for this mower? I really liked the super lo-tone...

Grass is a mix of Bermuda and weeds. Here's what I consider important in a mower. CARB compliant, non-propelled, and good...

    Did I kill it?

    I took out the lawn mower (Craftsman push mower with B&S 550e motor) to mulch some leaves this afternoon. Got it started and after two feet of happy mowing, I struck a hidden stone. The stone was about one inch by two inches and the mower immediately shot out a cloud of black smoke and began...

    Better mower ideas

    I was gifted an older Craftsman push mower with a 20" deck and a 158cc B&S motor. It's a lot better than what I've used previously, but as I mow I can't help but think of ways to make it better. From my perspective, better means more fuel efficient and quieter operation while retaining...

    B&S 10T802 questions - muffler, etc

    Hello all, I was gifted a Craftsman 20" walk behind lawn mower today, a 247.385100 if that makes sense. The motor on it is a B&S 10T802-0776-B1, according to the stamp on the block. It has a small round muffler on it at the moment - perhaps 2"-2.5" in diameter. I would like to find a quieter...
