3-year-old craftsman push mower would not start. After following your instructions, I was blown away when mower started after first pull. Not bad for a 72-year-old woman who mows her own yard.
Love this video! Was able to show this to my dad, whom was stumped. 15 minutes later, our mower is purring like new.
You are a life saver, & are heaven sent! Again, thank you so so much, for taking the time out of your day to record this for us mower-challenged people!
great work!
Thank you! My lawn mower never ran better.
That worked out great! Identifying the sockets and the torx bit saved me at least 10 minutes. Thanks so much for this!!
No problem. Glad i could help.
Thank you for this video- great tutorial. I am determined to get my push mower working again.
Hi, I want to thank you for your video. Followed ever step even blowing as directed. It started up right away. Thanks for making amateur’s like me feel like a small engine mechanic.
You're welcome!
It took me 3 hours what you showed in 10 min, but my mower works now! Thank you so much!
Lol. It wont take so long the next time lol
@@smallengineguys I referred to this awesome video once again. It only took me 2 hours this time, lol. I'm getting better. Thanks again.
@@bslacker9 lol well practice makes perfect. I usually charged 80 bucks. Other shops were 120 either way you saved
Great video. Nice step by step by step description.
Thanks brother, you were very helpful and a friend in a time of need... be blessed 🙏🏽
Glad i could help.
Your welcome
This is just what I needed. I've never taken anything like this apart and this video was extremely clear and straight forward. Thank you for this
glad it helped!
Tank you
Hi Jacques, 75, from Laval, Quebec. Thanks to your video I have just fixed and cleaned the craburator on my Craftman lawnmower, same as in video. It would not start and now it runs fine. Many thanks
Very well explained did it while you were talking thanks for the know how and I'll see if my mower runs and stays running
Great video. My first time cleaning a mower carburetor; the instructions were great. After cleaning, started on the first pull. Will say, getting the fuel line off took the most time (there must be an easier way). And Yes, my float bowl and fuel has just as much water as your video. Thanks.
Great job! just twist the line back and forth dont worry if it breaks your local auto part store has it.
Loved the vidoe!! Got my mower started without having to buy a new carb!! Keep up the good work with the videos! Great explanation and easy to follow instructions!
Glad it helped!
Basically did exactly what you did in the video and went from a mower that didn't start to one that's running the best I can remember. This was a huge help to me and I really appreciate it. God bless.
Glad i could help
First time messing with a carb. Honestly I don’t know what the damn thing does but followed your vid and my mower started right up. THANK YOU!!
nice!
Followed the tutorial step by step and it worked great for me. Thanks for sharing!
Perfect
You are the best. What i did was took everything apart same as you, and use the air blew everything out, and put everything back together. Stared right up. Thank you very much
yep sometimes that works
Man wish I had come across the vid about two years ago would’ve saved me a ton of time... nice vid new subscriber for sure
Thanks! Glad to have you.
Hi! Thank You so much for the step by step tutorial. It worked like a charm! This was the first time I have ever fixed an engine myself 😁.
Glad it helped! feels good right!
Great video!! Your instructions saved me 100 bucks, thank you sir!
Nice!
Thank you!!! I know nothing about engines and this was a super easy fix! Thank you
Glad it helped!
Thanks so much-especially appreciated you calling out the screw head and Torx sizes.
yep
HUGE THANKS Great Video. Greatly helped me.
Glad it helped!
Great video you were very patient walking us through this.. A lot simpler now
Nice!
Bro thank you so so much!!! My lawnmower runs like a champ now!!!!
Glad I could help
Brilliantly worked and nothing else did…thanks
Saved me $300. Well done! 👍
THANK YOU! This is exactly what I needed to see. Thank you for explaining it clearly, walking through the steps, giving the size of the tools, and having the cam positioned so I can actually see everything. Awesome!
You are so welcome!
Thank you
yep
Thanks for the video. It gives me the confidence to dig into it by myself! Wonderful closeups and great details.
You got this!
Glad it was helpful!
Btw your video is clear and you show the linkage replacement which every other video I searched failed to show. Thank you so so much. I think I may have bent the linkage from the front the top one. Is that a problem?
it could be but you just bend it a bit back if it is
Thanks 👍🙏
No problem 👍
Thank you. This helped a lot this spring!
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the video and expertise, I have the same exactly Lawnmower and was able to get it running. Fixed in like a half hour.thanks again. Following you guys.
Awsome glad i could help!!
Hey man- thanks for the great video- awesome tips and explanation- I followed it today and worked like a charm! Thanks again!
Glad it helped!
So much help man thanks! I'm up and running again!
Glad to hear it!
I have this mower. And I cleaned the carb the magneto. What size is the nut on the flywheel so I can check the flywheel key.
Thanks for the video. Saved me over $100 bucks.
Awsome glad i could help.
Man I have a 2020 craftsman mower wouldn't start here in 2021 should of ran carb dry in the fall. Oh well lesson learned 😌. But your video was excellent cleaned carb with starter fluid 🤭 and bam its working. Thumbs up from me to you 👍
Nice! Thanks!
Thank you much on the diy video.very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
This video Helped me get mine done! Thank you
You are welcome!!
You saved the day! Super helpful. Liked and subscribed.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge very helpful 👍
yep!
Super helpful video, I cleaned it out and it started with barely a pull. Sub'd
Thanks for the sub!
I have the same mower that I just bought from a neighbor. I noticed it doesn't have a primer bulb or is it me?? If you can, please let me know thanks!!
Awesome video. Very simple to follow and straight to the point. I followed it step-by-step, including putting on a new air filter and putting in fresh gas. My mower started up on the first pull .... but it is running at really low revs. Is there an adjustment somewhere I can make that will make it run at full power? Thanks again for the excellent video!
under gas tank is metal flap with spring attached. bend it to tighten spring but dont go to far or you will blow up your motor lol. also make sure you actually attached the linkages to the carb first.
@@smallengineguys You guys nailed it again! I actually didn't have to bend the spring. I found that it fallen off one side when I was doing the carb stuff. I reattached the spring and it's running like new. Thanks again!
@@slowcow7 kinda figured that great job.
Great video my man
Glad you liked it!
I have the same mower. I cleaned all parts two different times. . It only runs when tilted back.
needle valve swollen. new carb time
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Great video. Any suggestions on how to clean out dried gunk from the bottom of the gas tank?
Diesel fuel breaks it up good. I use a wire coat hanger straitened out with a green scrub pad fastened on the end with a drill and diesel fuel.
Well im out of options so im going to try it lol hope it works
95 percent of the time its the carb. Spray gas in the carb. If it starts and shuts off its carb.
Very helpful video. Thank you. Question...how would water get into the fuel tank & float bowl?
Usually from your gas can. Ethanol is in all your common fuel. Water is attracted to the ethanol. Ethanol will pull the water out of the air. Best way to avoid this is non ethanol fuel. Usually referred to as rec 90. Ethanol fuel only lasts about 3 weeks in a gallon can. Rec 90 lasts 3 months.
Exactly what I need saved me some cash thanks!
Glad I could help!
How do you adjust the governor on this mower. Bought mine in 2017, would love it to spin about 100-200rpm faster.
Under the gas tank on the engine there is a thin metal plate with a spring on it. Its kinda behind the tank but you can get to it. You have to bend it just a little. Its either to the front or back not sure but i think bend it to the front.
It's amazing how you can do all of that with one hand tied behind your back! I was wondering where the fuel filter is on that model?
the fuel filter is a screen and its built into the tank
@@smallengineguys... So there is never a need to change/replace it?
@@robira1313 no just clean the tank out with fresh gas and an air hose
Awesome video. So this year I used a landscaper, my mower sat for like 5/6 months. Tried to start it but it won't start. I have the exact same model as in your video (mine is self-propelled but that's the only difference). Today I drained the old fuel, replaced with Stabil plus TruFuel, still won't start. I'll have to disassemble. What kind of carburetor cleaner did you use in video? Thank you!
i use whatever is cheapest realy. lately ive been using this amzn.to/33UaF7l but any carb or brake cleaner with a straw will do. its realy more of a pressured rinse agent
I’m having the same issue. I drained the fuel, and added TruFuel 4-cycle fuel. I followed every step but the use of carb cleaner. Did you determine the underlying issue?
Great info.
Glad it was helpful!
I have the same issue, started right up after following the video (my problem was not water in the fuel but debris from an incredibly dirty air filter) and then I noticed gas leaking from the air filter after about a minute. I removed and remounted the carb assembly three times without any difference. I was very careful to snap everything in place including then pin on the floater and the cover is tight. Any other ideas? I was so happy when the engine roared to life and then felt like I was kicked in the stomach when it started leaking fuel. Thanks
needle valve could be bad or float is bad. time for new carb. carb
amzn.to/319dPlc
Can you let me know what to search for to find those air filters? Thanks
Great video. Unfortunately, for me I'm having a helluva time getting the fuel line off. Any tricks for that? Even worse it looks like I've damaged it with all my squeezing and pulling and gas seems to be dripping out of it. So looks like I get to replace that too.
Turning it on the nipple before trying to pull breaks it free. If its damaged cut it off and get new.
@@smallengineguys Tried several gyrations and eventually got it. Also looks like its still in tact and best part is first mow was successful after cleaning. Found a lot of gas in the bowl as well. Thanks again.
@@jamieweigold5234 no problem!!
Gas is coming out of the carb/air filter. It sounds like the float is still moving could it just be the float needle?
Yes
@@smallengineguys thanks ill take it apart again tomorrow.
My engine (7.25 163cc) has a hole on the body, the deck and rest of machine is on great condition. Can I mount a 6.5 engine from my old craftsman E-Z walk mower on this machine (Craftman 7.5 platinum) wonder if bolt pattern are same?
bolt pattern is the same. its the same for Honda or kohler even. i swap motors all the time. the big issue is self propelled mowers. honda has a bigger pully. makes it impossible to keep up with. like a racing mower lol.
you will use the other mowers blade and hub assembly on your deck fyi
@@smallengineguys thank you so much for providing us the valuable information.
Do any of the small Craftsman lawnmowers have fuel filters. I just changed the carburetor and spark plug on my neighbor's lawnmower and it still won't start. What am I missing?
Fuel filter is built into the tank. Did you clean the tank? New bought today gas? Does the mower have compression or spark?
No, I didn't but I should have because the tank was pretty much empty. I replaced both the carb and spark plug with new. My next step will be removing the gas tank and cleaning it out. It felt like it had pretty good compression but it wouldn't fire even after spraying it with started fluid. My other neighbor had a brand new Craftsman mower that she put out on the tree lawn for the garbage man to pick up. I asked her if I could have it and she said sure, but it don't work. I replaced the carburetor and it works fine. %
$500.00 mower for 1
$16.00! @@smallengineguys
Just pulled the tank and washed it out, now all I have to do is wait for it to dry and reassemble. Thank you for to info. This is why I love TH-cam.@@smallengineguys
@@daleantolik3956 you will need to clean your carb as well. Water may have gotten into it.
I did, it's also a brand new carb. I washed the carb out now all I have to do is wait for it dry out.@@smallengineguys
So I have the same mower…will a messy carburetor cause the engine to stall out only when the wheel drive is engaged? Just wondering what I might be dealing with.
Yep. Sometimes if its to lean. Do the wheels move at all when you engage it?
@@smallengineguys yes the wheels do move. But after traveling a few feet, it starts to die, then comes alive again for a few seconds, then dies down. It goes up and down until it just shuts off. Can’t figure it out. Is it the carb or something else?
@@tkedmt20 carb.
@@smallengineguys Working on it this week. Thanks.
Why didn't you start it?

I have weak spark on this mower and I can not find a model number to get the correct coil

best i can find hope it works.
@@smallengineguys thank you
@@bikelife_gus319 you are welcome.
Why does it seem like these carbs are built poorly? The old design seemed so much easier to work with.
these are much easier than the old ones. i can clean in 10 min old ones take 15. being a plastic carb the ethanol doesn't pit the inside like it does on the old carbs.
@@smallengineguys I don't remember having to deal with the choke linkage and all that other stuff on the old ones just to take the bowl off, but I could be wrong.
to just rinse bowl back in the day was sufficient. now we have ethanol in our fuel that eats the aluminum.
@@smallengineguys Thank you
I have same model of lawn mover I buy used one I notice I do as little higher than usual lawnmowers is this normal
Its the gas more than likely. Use non ethanol fuel they last longer.
I am sorry it was a typo error I mean my lawn mover idle seems to me way too high It’s like engine screaming is that normal to this particular model my other lawnmower doesn’t scream like that
@@asifsabri8669 no if you look under the carburetor youll see a metal bar with a spring on it. Its a little to the right of the carb. Bend it towards the carb slightly
Ill do a video for you.
small engine guys thank you so much
@@asifsabri8669 i did a video on a 20 inch bolens carburetor adjustment. Its the same type of motor.
What kind of gas does it need
best is non ethanol. lasts longer. other than that cheap stuff is fine you just need to buy fresh every time you do your lawn and start it once a week even if you arent mowing.
Air filter link?
amzn.to/3xuGVxc
I loved your tutorial. But it still won’t start. It’s only a year old used twice!!
So spray carb cleaner directly in the carburetor. Try to start it. If it fires and shuts back off you need to do the carb again. If not you need to check spark and compression.
