- When I got this mower it wouldn't start, it had the most common problem you see on a small 4 stroke. Easy, free fix

Now that carburetor made it look easy. I wish they all would cooperate like that. Sorry about Sunday family stuff.
Once you do a couple, they are pretty easy. No worries about Sunday, Family always comes first.
I put 2 stud bolts in motor, put carb stuff in order, hold carb, pull bolt 1 at a time, & slide in other bolt. easy peasy. Love ya Bill. old retired Guy.
I thought about changing over this one but the base gasket was good, and it stayed in place this time. That's the one that wears me out 🙂
She's running pretty good now that you fixed it
She was running great, sold it yesterday. Didn't make anything but it was an easy project
@@GuysPlayingWithTools yeah it definitely was easy that's for sure
Of course way too much practice fixing carbs makes it look easier than it really is. 🙃
@@GuysPlayingWithTools yeah it definitely does
Love them big wheel mowers pretty clean also👍🏽
It was a good one. It was clean when I sold it, had to put a little shine on at the end.
Look at that, bill never fail got another one up to par. Cheers bill
I get a lemon every now and then, but they usually(sometimes the do) don't make good videos, too much of me banging my head on the bench. 🤣
@@GuysPlayingWithTools Lol that makes for good videos too
@@DIYVariety That's true, I do one every once in a while where I get into it and it's a mess. Seems like people like those(I don't LOL )
Nice job. It runs good. I want to thank you for helping me out getting me to the 1k 🔧👍
Thanks! We are all in this together. People help me, I help people, that's how the system works best. Come up on our live Sunday. I will give you time to talk about your channel. 🙂
Nice work Bill. These honda carbs can be tricky.
Thanks 🙂 They can get... interesting, lol
Nice job Bill and good looking mower. I used to fight with the Honda carb gaskets when putting it back together.
LawnMower Lady has a good video on using 2 all-thread rods to hold everything together when putting the carb back on a Honda engine.
Here's the size M6x150mm Stainless Steel Threaded Rod.
Thanks. I only had to fumble with the easiest one this time. Lol
Bill I love those Honda engines. They are a very easy sell. I never get a Honda mower as they are way over priced here but i do get some craftsmans with Honda power. I have a RWD Lawnboy with the Honda that i will flip ,if it ever quits snowing and the grass starts to grow.❄🌪👍🇺🇸🎥
I am a Quantum fan. The Hondas are good, but... the Quantums are better. 🙂
When you are selling, the Honda is the best.
@@GuysPlayingWithTools I agree Bill, i love the quantums also. They are the best engine Briggs built in my opinion.👍
I see a lot of 20 year old Quantum motors that only need a bit of love to be back in fighting shape. Gotta love it when you can easily save 95% of them. 😁
Nice looking machine. Good job Bill
Thanks Al, that was a nice one for sure
Didn't realize you had a channel till now so I subscribed so's I can antagonise you as well as House/Home garage. Your fix is typical of most stuff today. I put a pressure washer together out of one of those plastic cam Briggs motor, a Troy-bilt cart and a dud pump and Ebay. I used the motor and cart and Ebayed the rest but it'd just brun when the choke was closed. Main jet clogged. Have a 'T' and a gas valve to put a drain in the line going to the carb and I won't worry about that deal anymore. Just drain the tank totally and loosen the carb bowl nut and that's that. The wife loves the Stihl mower and as long as she does all the trimming I will too. My old 85 Snapper is my own deal till I work on it more. Governor is goofy. So Happy Texas Summer. I was in the Army with several from there and they were 1st rate! One could knock old Bob Wills fiddle tunes OUT of the park. Radio man in an Engineer outfit. I was on a guitar. BLESSINGS!
Of course I have a channel, I am not just a pretty face ya know. 🤣
I am pretty big on my JD130 for personal use. My wife doesn't know we have a yard 🙄
Good video Bill, as always.
Thanks Barry 🙂
Honda. The older HR models had studs , all of them , they are the same as the studs on the exhaust side but longer.
They did. Some people liked the studs because it allows you to hang the back plate and gaskets, I am not a fan because it adds a step to taking the linkage apart. You can't please everybody LOL
The gas plus the carb are the first one's to be looked at then the spark plug fuel line is another one plus the fuel filter or the pump if it has one of those
Yup. Plug problems are rare though, they may make them run badly, but most mowers will at least start with a bad plug.
@@GuysPlayingWithTools okay I forgot about that matter of the engine might be a o.h.v which is the other thing that can cause it not to start up
@Robert Mailhos True, going in, you never know where you will end up. Could have been nothing more than a sticky choke or bad gas. Nothing surprises me anymore.
Good work. Back to the carbs!
It's always the carb. 🙂
@@GuysPlayingWithTools Not always....
Well, almost always. 🤣
Nice looking mower and good runner in the end well done. We get many of these at Eliminator Performance and these are other fuel related items that could cause this problem: 1. internal inline fuel filter at fuel tank outlet that is plugged (mainly because many add their fuel outdoors when it is windy and grass and dust enter the fuel tank) 2: plugged up fuel shutoff valve (rare but we have seen a few over the years mainly because someone has removed the inline fuel filter) 3. plugged pilot jet which is on the top end of the carb if this one had the plastic inserted pilot assembly. Just wondering if this one had the wax insert auto choke system? We have not seen one of these at our shop yet!
It had the plain old choke. I tell people all the time not to fill the tanks in the yard... it wrecks the grass and sometimes the mower.
On this one, I was "feeling" the jets right off the bat, but didn't want to rule anything out.
@@GuysPlayingWithTools You got it first pull well done
@Wayne Stefinashen With good gas and everything working right, an auto- choke mower should start on the first pull just about every time.
Our Time change doesn’t end till first Sunday in April in Australia.😊
I wish they would make a decision about what time it is and stick with it. 🤣
@@GuysPlayingWithTools I don’t mind it as it gives you extra time in the afternoon/evening to do things as the days are longer.
I also prefer getting up earlier, more day to play with, plus, if you can do your running around before sunrise, it's like having the world to yourself.
Cool
Everybody loves Hondas. 👍
@2:57 yah Honda's are Royal pain in the butt to work on . eg) HRR216 ( video of mine coming out in a few weeks of carb replacement)
They are, but they sell quick when they run well. Looking forward to it 🙂
7:11 did you do anything with the pilot jet?
Sure, I had both the pilot and the slow jet on the counter, both got cleared with wire and had a nice warm bath in the ultrasonic 🙂
@@GuysPlayingWithToolsthe outcome was certainly sweet.
@haneyoakie14 I was pretty happy with it, and the first guy that saw it, bought it. Life is good 👍
Like the fact that you made a mistake but you kept trying till you got it bright that. More like how it really is that's how it is but you gotjit fixed instead of OK were going to fix this and then just skip right to the OK we're done its fixed
Thanks, I don't make videos for mechanics. They are for the guy at home trying to get his running, so when I miss something, I don't edit it out. In real life, we are all going to make mistakes, so I leave 99% of them in.
Hey Carl, can you check this mower to see what's wrong with it ? Aight then..... Ain't got no gas in it......🥴🤔🤔
I have had that happen, someone brings me a mower with an empty tank and says "it won't start"
🤣
@@GuysPlayingWithTools #1 rule, check the obvious!......👍🤫
Every time. I run through the same checklist every time before I buy anything. That way, I have a good idea what's wrong with each one before they are unloaded into the shop.
