I had a problem with the engine surging, and thanks to your video, I have repaired my B&S 185cc/5.00 lawn mower...What an excellent video...Nobody could have made a better video, I swear...Nobody. Great narration, Excellent video quality, And perfect step-by-step instructions. You have found your calling. I Subscribed. Thanks...Joe
This video is a model of how these "how to" videos should be made. It gave me the information I needed without subjecting me to self indulgent showmanship. I just needed to know what I would find as I delved into the mechanism. I fixed my motor without any expense at all because dismantling and cleaning were all that were needed. Many thanks.
I have been "frettin'", fussing, almost cussing and almost having a running fit ! I am so glad and appreciative that I found your you tube video on this lawn mower. I have the same engine. I listened to the video twice. Excellent Video ! Easy to Understand ! Thank you so very much !
Very concise and clear. Steps taken were very practical and sensible. Thanks.
Dude this is a outstanding video, honest and to the point,no loud music and lots of knowledge in a short video, thank you!!
THIS is the way a video should be done! Great job. No questions necessary.
Thank you so much for posting this video! I am a 52 yr old single mom and my mower would not stay running. Followed your video and it now starts first pull every time and stays running! You are awesome!
Brilliant video- thank you. Genuine diaphram for less than £3 off ebay, 25 minutes fettling later and mower is transformed. Changed my spark plug too ( NGK off ebay for £2.50!) and oil too. Now intend to take better care of my mower from now on.
Excellent instruction video, Josh. Very clear on the verbal instruction and excellent camera work to help us see exactly what you were doing as you described it. Great job! Thanks!
Just spent £80 on a service for mine. With your help I can definitely do this myself in future. Clear and simple instructions. Thank you so much.
I have a Bolens push mower with a 3.5 hp Briggs and Stratton with this exact carberator. Have done this service several times. My symptoms have been engine surge but this service fixes it. I noticed water as well as grass clippings/ debris makes in inside the tank. I can see how water can get in there but can't figure out how the other trash is making it in there. These carbs are very easy to work in though as is the whole mover. Nice vid and thank you for sharing.
This is one of the best DIY videos and explanations I have viewed regardless of the device or kind of repair. Videos on how to perform surgery should be so well done. Thank you!
Perfectly done video showing the process step-by-step and little hints along the way of what to watch out for to make sure the repair goes without a hitch. Just repaired my 5 year old Craftsman edger in less than 30 minutes. It is up and running like new. I couldn't find a local shop to work on this small engine, and even if I could they would have charged at least 10X what it cost me for a new gasket/diaphragm!!!
Ken Ishida is exactly right. This IS one of the very best DIY videos and explanations that I have seen - and I've looked at plenty of them. Thank you Metal in Motion.
I saved myself at least £60 by following this video demonstration Thank you
Best video I found for the disassembly of the carb
A great help ! Had it off , cleaned and reassembled in an hour thanks!!
Mower was running rough, watched your video and after cleaning carb ended up replacing the gasket and diaphram for $8 and works like a champ. Thanks! Used the B&S p/n 5083 combo includes spring and screen.
Spot on!! Clear & precise, 24 mins start to finish & running sweet as a nut again, all for £3.60.
Thank you. And I mean that from someone who doesn't know anything about small engines. You made this so specific and easy to follow. Thanks again!!
Excellent video. Real easy to understand. Thank you!
A clear and concise video which has proved to be most useful in the repair of my lawn mower. Many thanks for all of your help , very much appreciated !
Josh - The Best DIY video I've seen on You Tube. Great video. Clear explanation! Very good job and thanks. You saved me $150!
Many thanks this is almost identical to my model which I have to prime with a spoonful of petrol as the button is perished, but which recently started firing up then cutting out when the primer was burned. Stripped down, new gaskets cut by hand, cleaned out, reassembled and now runs better than ever.
Thanks so much for this excellent video.Transformed a sputtering, hard to start push mower into a smooth running machine. Could not have done it without your detailed instructional video.
Absolutely first class, I've followed the step by step instructions & my mower works like new. Excellent video, clear & concise.
I checked out my mower this am, you are the best it is now purring like a kitten....great video.....i also changed my oil, spark plug, blade and cleaned the machine.....thanks again.....I found I was missing a screw in the front so thanks for that info..
Brilliant video wished I had viewed it earlier as made mistake removing tank,& had to replace a spring but now I know how
Great easy to follow video. my mower is now running like new!!!!!!.
Thanks Josh, keep up the great work.
Thanks for your time and talents!
Fantastic Info - Lawn mower now runs like new, Thank you.
Excellent description and photography of what's involved. Thanks
great video, covers it 100% thanks
Thanks a lot mower running well now saved me a big repair bill
you saved my lawn mower today. I forgot to install the O ring you show at 4:01 so not enough gas inside of the motor because of not enough succion for the membrane pump. Many thanks.
Same fuel restriction problem on my B&S 3.75 power washer. It would run for 3 seconds after priming. Diaphragm looked OK so I soaked the plastic gas pick up tube and screen in paint thinner (didn't have anything stronger) for 24 hours. Blew out the thinner with a compressor, reassembled. Starts and runs great.
Great stuff. Clear, concise. My Nana could do the repair following your instructions!
Great video ... While you've got the air filter off you need to check the cleanliness of the sponge filter. If the sponge is dirty, wash it out and when completely dry add a few drops of clean oil to the sponge.
Thanks for this useful video. The explanations are concise and the approach very methodical. Well done!
Very nicely presented.
What a clear an awesome video thanks for the tips now I have to go and do this to mine 👍👍
Great video - so easy to follow and my lawnmower works like new (at least as new as when I got it!) Thanks very much.

What a brilliant video. to the point and full of information. Thanks
Hey Josh, You did a terrific job of explaining this procedure. Now I'm going to try and fix my mower. the mower starts with primer spray but stops as soon as the primer spray has been burnt. Probably a plug gas line ....so hear goes. Thanks

Good video...worked for me I did not tighten the Philips screws tight enough leaking a little bit gas. Thanks.
Excellent video. Thank you.
Outstanding video! Thank you very much!
Excelente...! u r a master.. Thank you so much from Buenos Aires., Argenitna.
thanks from the uk. i've got a working lawnmower again. nice one.
well i thought i had. it only seems to run on the petrol that the primer puts into the carb when you prime it. any ideas. the primer is supple enought when its out of the tank.
Great video!
Very detailed information. Great job thank you.
Thanks a lot very useful vid....can get on and fit the 795083 diaphragm now (£4.50) and cut the grass in the morning :-)
Get 2 air cleaner screws and cut off the tops. Use it as a guide to install the diaphragm. Open the governor vane and see if the throttle screw touches the engine. If not, replace the springs. It's stretched. There is a special oil change tool to change the oil on 4 h.p. Briggs. Amazon has it. Replace the carburetor if replacing the diaphragm don't work. If the engine kicks back, the flywheel key could be sheared. Disconnect the plug wire and crank it around and see if it still kicks back. If not, it's not the key.
Great Video, Thanks!
Nice video , swell job thank you.
Good Morning.. The pull assembly not broke.. The string came off the spoil. Tried to put it back on and a coily like spring came from under it?
thanks, straight forward and to the point.....
Thanks very nice video easy to understand
Excellent video...thanks.
Just watched the video going to attempt to do mine tomorrow........wish me luck
Thanks for the help!
Excellent instructions, problem solved for £3 not £70!!
You are real good MAN,your ORIENTATION PERFECT 👍👍👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😻😻😻
The wind vane is such an elegant method to maintain constant rpms. I wonder who invented it back in the day.
Some time after the “hit-n-miss” ignition system was abandoned. Flyball governor systems kept those old engines from over rev, and work much the same way. A force is either applied to a rod or it isn’t.
A great help. Thanks.
Very useful vid. Thanks very much
I like the information about the small engine
Thanks for posting this. I have the same mower. For the past couple lawn cuts the mower has been running rough. Like surging up and down. Lastnight I was cutting and mulchin. I ran over a thick bunch of leaves. The mower died. I went to restart and it wouldn't. There is nothing stuck under near the blades. Today the mower almost started for 2 seconds and then cut out. Could this be the gasket? Its got fresh oil,gas,and good plug. Just can't figure it out. Thanks
great vid, now maybe i can get mine goin
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INFORMATION VERY GOOD.
