  • This video shows how to replace the carb on a Toro Recycler Push Mower. I did not change out the spark plug because it was new. The plug was cross threaded and all the threads were gone. At the end of the video the Spark Plug shoots out of the mower across the garage.

    This video may be 8 years old now, but it just helped us change out the carburetor on our same mower! THANK YOU! ❤️

    I cannot thank you enough for saving me a ton of money by me replacing the carburetor on my Toro recycler lawnmower. I am not mechanically inclined but after following your instructions from your video I was able to change the carburetor and now the lawnmower is running like a champ. I am actually kind of proud of myself because the lawnmower is working. Thank you very much once again for your spot on video where a layman could understand the video.

    I enjoyed the carb rebuild and like the fact you didn't edit out the flying spark plug scene. 🤣🤣 that's my luck too.

    Thank you very much for this video, I'm not too mechanically inclined but had trouble with my mower and couldn't afford to take it to a shop, and your video was clear enough that I was able to replace the carburetor and it started right up!

    Thanks, replaced the carb and first pull, BAM! It went to 3 service centres who could not fix BUT I did and it was free :) Good clear video, thanks ^5 At 62 and wounded front wheel drive helps much.

    Your video really helped me a lot. I had a hard time getting to where the gas line connected to the carburetor so I disconnected the carburetor first then disconnected the gas line afterwards. Other than that I followed the same steps as you did. But I replaced my spark plug correctly so my mower started right up with the new parts.

    Thanks for the video, have mine all torn down to replace the carburetor that I am currently waiting on to arrive. I seen a couple easier steps and thanks for telling all the sizes of tools you were using, will make install a lot easier (as well as the spring) :)

    Excellent video. The fact that the spark plug was not properly installed by the prior owner is inconsequential. The process of removing and installing a carb was well documented.

    I replaced my carb today because it wasn't starting at all. Now it runs, but it revs up and down, up and down, not steady at all. Any ideas? (Thanks for this video, made it very easy (sort of) to do.)

    I’m in the middle of this project. When I took the carburetor and intake pipe off it seemed like there was also a thin gasket between the pipe intake and the motor. Did you not need to put a new gasket there? There are remnants of the torn up old one. Thank you Mike!

  • @R.L.Thomas
    @R.L.Thomas 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This guy removed parts that weren't necessary to remove. The carburetor is bolted to the intake with only 2 bolts. Removing the muffler and intake isn't necessary. I can only guess that he doesn't have the right wrench for the nuts that hold the carburetor to the intake. I would advise everyone to look at more that one "instructional" video when trying to DIY, especially if you've never tried anything like this.

    You can tell the spark plug was loose in the video, they probably put in the wrong plug.

      Hosoi Archives take out the spark plug and spray starter fluid into the hole. If it starts it’s a fuel issue. If it doesn’t then it’s a spark issue or compression issue.
