@georgerenton965 Your Welcome

@ARTR2008 Yes, it is important. Otherwise, pressure pulse can be different in the rail, depending on which injector fires.

@willyck948 well I took your advice and rechecked mine and as I thought, mine was a 1/4 turn out....all fixed....cheers!

@MrMegajody200 I always buy combination top and side post battery incase I need to convert a car or if the threads strip, I can still repurpose the battery.

@brarautorepairs I made the manager laugh, changing oil on the new Mazda inline 6 cylinder. I said, whoever engineered this is a genius as I pointed out the oil cooler with the filter is next to the oil drain plug the next day.

@willyck948 GM has the worst oil filter placements in the industry. The oil filter is next to the exhaust so you burn your arm taking the filter off. Audi doesn't want anyone to work on their cars. Every time I see a tech working on an Audi, the entire front end is off the car 😂. I'm like wtf is going on buddy? They said, oh it is in "service mode". BMWs come with free oil proofing at exactly 100k. Your engine oil cooler will fail and leak. Mercedes will score the special coating on the cylinder liner at 150k just because the oil takes too long to get to the rear cylinders. A Nissan Altima will never get an oil change because you know that car attracts a specific crowd.

@brarautorepairs Most of the 2015 earlier gm v6 cars are disappearing as I live in the salt belt. I usually get the filters off from on top and let oil spill into a drain pan. I also use a rag to prevent getting burned. As for cars not built to last, it's hard to point fingers, but emmisions haven't helped longevity, and consumers will usually opt for cheaper alternatives when possible. The next worst oil change is the hemi rams with the sway bar next to the drain plug and oil filter over the power steering. Sway bar scatters the oil everywhere, and the oil filter is hard to reach, and oil drains all over the rack and pinion. Funny story, I had to change oil on an old Ford van, and the drain plug wasn't tight and wouldn't unthreated properly as it was binding, so I put it back to similar torque incase threads were screwed up and put silicone on it. Then, I proceeded to grab the vacuum extractor and sucked the oil out through the dipstick tube for the win. Custom was notified recommend new oil pan.

@@kevinganoe9809 I believe I mentioned the cam in later video. I did put a playlist together.

@djladd241 I don't have to work on one right now, but I will try to keep it in mind. I would recommend checking the connection at the carb as there's a plastic grommet that can wear out and cause slack in the linkage between the carb and governor arm, could try adding a damper soring like ones used on tecumseh carbs

@JOHNDANIEL1 I'll look into that👍

I have a question about my 23hp vanguard.

@AMH1102-y1w no contact info but can answer here. 23hp Vanguard is the same block size as the 18hp but has a bigger bore, different heads, different manifolds, and different carb

@@willyck948that’s fair! My engine is on a woodmizer. I replaced fuel shut off solenoid, the coil, both magnets/ignition, spark plugs, and harness/diodes. Also cleaned carb. Original issues were…not starting without fuel dump or starting fluid, slow crank, miss at high rpm, and not shutting off when ignition switch turned off. After cleaning and replacing my current issues are…miss at wot and not shutting down when switch turned off(like ignition shut down). It will shut off after about 3 seconds(fuel shut off solenoid shut down).

@AMH1102-y1w sounds like a bad kill switch and vibration at high speed may be causing ignition contact to ground and not make contact in the off piston. I would unhook the kill from the brower shroud terminal and see if the miss at wot goes away, then use a spare wire to ground out the post to verify the kill works or if a wire is loose inside the blower shroud.

@@eduardomalcom2228 Best to use model type and code to find the correct part. I like to go to PARTSTREE.COM

Some day, I'll fix my old 1970s 3hp tecumseh/generac generator as its light and easy to put into storage. I also have a 5000 watt generator for my simplicity garden tractors thats easy to store out of the way. My brother has a 100 amp military diesel generator hardwired to the house that works great. My brother mentioned if we had infillstructure for wind mills, or solar panels the diesel generator can be supplemental or even send power back to the grid and we could get a kick back from the power company. My brother makes whats known as black diesel. He runs it in his square body dodge with a cummins and cost is pennies on the dollar as black diesel is mix of junkyard used oil and stail gasoline. It would be cheaper to run the house full time off black diesel than pay for power, but it would be a full-time job maintaining and fueling the generator. That being said, if we just fired it up once a week and got paid for the power, it's probably worth the time. My brother is on tiktok anthonycooke27

@7.3PSDA2 I haven't had good luck with kohler engines. This one is the cheapest repair I have had in a V-twin. The only cheaper to fix kohler was the k301 on the 7112 I sold as it only needed a fuel pump, carb cleaning, and oil change.

@ i normally pull kohlers off and scrap them. and no im not kidding. i have a rz5424 that now has a fr691v that had over 1200 hours. runs and mows like a top. next i have a mtd pro 60 older model had a i cant remeber the model but its a 23hp command. i pulled it off put a 28 hp briggs on it. runs like a champ. this is the same mower.... the transmissions were bad i ripped all of the drive stuff out forcefully, i welded a little 4 bolt axle under the rear used hustler 10 inch rims with 22 10 by 10 it think are size. i know there 22s and have a 10 inch rim. there factory on like a 2014 hustler raptor. anyways put them on. them took a 4 foot piece of inch and half square tubing and made me a 60 inch side pull mower. i also... have a a 2018 troybuilt 42 inch had the 547cc single cylinder.... now it has a 1993 mongumery ward opposed twin 18 hp engine. i pull the side mower with it for a grand total of 101 inch cut mower. now you may be thinking lots of thoughts but i have 5 acre back yard. and i like it nice and even and well manicured. last year with the rz5424 and the troy bilt 42 took me and wife about 4-5 hours usually sunday after church until supper time. now with my setup this last year took me 2 hours and she played with the zero turn around the pond and the few trees we have.

@7.3PSDA2 I've done a lot of work to my gt18 over the years to make it more reliable and convenient to use. Had a dip lube opposed twin briggs and swapped for a Vanguard, then added bypass oil filter for longer oil life, then converted it to propane. It's a turn key and go machine with a lot of added accessories, one a working progress rear mower I've been working on with electric start and pto set up thar can be controlled from the tractor via a plug.

@@JohnWilliams-hm5te I get my parts from partstree using model type and code.

I've bought 10 of these pieces of Chinese garbage they may last for 2 seasons if your lucky.tired of wasting money on junk

@@JohnWilliams-hm5te I usually replace the whole bindics assembly, oem briggs. I've seen the center part ware and cause the gear to sit at an agle instead of paralegal with the ring gear.

It's not as bad as other kohler engines I've worked on😉

@@christaldaughtery2849 your welcome.

@johngilmer-k2e not sure what you mean by all. Exhaust ports are usually closer to the pto shaft side of the engine.

@@cyberburnzy can call a dealer or a local parts store.

@GoKartsorGoneFishin gray bricks are tough tractors.

@VinnyStout-j4o I got the gaskets from gm dealership.

@@jamesm699 earlier style engines were 23 series about 9hp

@@willyck948 the new one I bought today is a 1990 it don't even have the option for point it's got electronic ignition

No idea as I didn't have to touch it. May be slotted for removal without removing the bolt from the colum, possibly holding a bushing in place.

@jaccourt9531 opposed twin briggs engines don't have a decompression, so they need about 300 cca lawn and garden battery. I like to buy agm batteries from tractor supply.

I'll share a video showing how to test signal inputs. The cam signal is once every 2 revolutions and I believe it's the wire to the right of the crank signal wires. You can test the cam sensor with a magnet if you remove it. You can also use a mirror to look threw the sensor port to see the magnet or if its missing. I covered the wiring repairs in a later video.

@KensSmallEngineRepair Tractor has a rebuilt k321 just needs cam shims to fix a knock. It gets used alot.

@@willyck948 I always err on the tight side with cam and crank endplay shims. I've also had flywheels/crank tapers with a slight amount of dirt/oil on them compress out the dirt/oil over time resulting in a noticeable "knock".

I will do a video on it someday, but there's a lot to go over especially with safety switches and relief valves.

If brake adjustment is too tight, the belt won't fully disengage. If belt is to small the pedal will bottom out against the runner board

@@willyck948 That makes sense. I will check that thanks 😊
