I got a yth2348 husqvarna mower and the valves were way out of spec. so I readjusted them to .005". It ran for about 30 seconds just fine and went to the same old popping and hard to start. So i went back to adjust them and they were off again. Its on a Intek 23 hp Briggs. Im stumped on why it keeps moving. So if anybody could help me?

I just joined today. I bought this mower and I hope to get the heads, rods, gaskets and an aftermarket carb back on this 23 V-twin Intech OHV engine. I posted today and ordered an intake rod, thanks to Star tea giving me some help today. I bought this yth2348 and mowed a little and decided to take it apart after it blew a cloud of smoke. I need a manual. If you can stand the Grass Rats' Garage, you can see some how to at youtube by Tayrl. I had a 2448 I didn't take care and so overworked it. Good luck.
