Really enjoyed watching that. I can't do much work on my stuff now because the Georgia Association of Shade Tree Mechanics has pulled my operating license.
I know I’m repetitive but I love your videos. Sorry I binge watched all your videos. Should’ve broken them up 2 a day and spread it out longer. I’ve been watching you for awhile now and you never fail me. I would love to work with you. Love your videos brother. Keep up the great work
Ive been doing Lawn mower repair for over 40 years . ive replaced Maybe 4 ignition coils in that time . they just don't go bad . 9 times outta 10 its a carb problem an the crap azz ethanol fuel is the culprit .
Here he is, T-Bone!!! Pull it to pop it is a good catch phrase 🤣🤣. That ain’t Mrs T on the camera, waving it around like a drunk man. She would be rock steady! Me and baby are demanding a welfare check! where is she? 🤣🤣. Great videoSir, love your content
Hey T-bone...G'day from Rodney in Melbourne Australia. I hope you see my comment on this older video... I need your advice on a Honda Buffalo HRU216D three speed (non speed brake) self propelled mower that has the GXV160 engine...I think you call it a Honda Commercial in the USA. I've had it from new (since about year 2001) and was struggling with a lack of power and puffing a bit of black smoke. I checked compression and it was sitting low at about 38-40 psi dry reading and about 50 psi wet reading. So I bit the bullet and I have completed the following works.. *New Carburetor *Complete New Cylinder Head and gasket *New coil *Light hone of the bore to re-establish cross hatch *New rings Complete wash out of dirty black oil and light sludge in the crankcase... It's just had it's first half hour of mowing and it is blowing a serious amount of blue smoke....I checked my oil level and it is at the half way mark on the dip stick cross hatches... so definitely not overfilled ... I think the smoke is starting to subside as the rings bed in...but my question is how long should "running in smoke" be an issue? I'm thinking of changing the oil after another hour of working the engine....and then either running genuine Honda 10W30...or if I'm still suffering (ring blow by smoke) going heavier to 10W40...your thoughts on bedding in time would be appreciated and your view on heavier oil grade. The rings, head and carb are ebay aftermarket as genuine Honda lead times and prices are hefty here in Australia... Cheers Rodney in Melbourne
I'd love to see a livestream of yours someday! Just, "A day in the life of T-Bone at work" maybe just a couple hours even, Watch you troubleshoot live, hear and see your thought process live would be so cool. (Even if it wasn't live, but an uncut 2 hour film or something, would be so cool)
This is the video of yours that I’ve watched, and you really give the best basic info on how to get these started. Thanks, great vid, and I just subscribed and liked it also!

Will you please make a video on how to replace the blade on a table saw properly and safely?
Sorry, I don't do woodworking tool videos. Thanks for watching and commenting my friend
I found the problem! …but how do you shorten the cable going to the switch? It’s stretched out.
What do I check if I sprayed fuel in it, it didnt fire, and the kill wire is good, but plug gets spark even with kill wire unplugged?
When checking for spark after removing the engine and disconnecting the magneto kill wire, I spin the flywheel nut clockwise with an impact.
Heck yeah great tip. Thanks for watching my friend.
I have a 450E motor put new carb and primer new plug I got it running but ies nit run smoothly has a up and down ideal?? What could it be mower is only 3 years old 🤔
Woops...That should've read "Non Blade brake model"
Who is doing the music on the end of video? Anybody?
