    Thanks for all the information. Lots of us seem to have similar problems with this engine. I do think that modern fuels don’t help as we don’t know exactly what gets added to them, and they are biased towards fuel injection and not humble carburettors. You’ve saved me a lot of work, thanks.

    I've got the same RS100 that I've had from new for about 7 years - it started hunting quite badly yesterday, so found this vid on servicing the carb. Did it today as per this video and it's like a brand new mower! I think it might even sound louder than it ever has done! Dead easy job to do, too.

    Thanks Mower Man, just watched this video and managed to HP414 back up and running. The stainless bush on air filter housing even fell out exactly as it did during the video. My issues were mouse related, little darling had chewed the hose from the primer bulb. Managed to replace it with a pipe I had left over from a strimmer repair. Your video gave me the confidence to remove the carb and clean all that down at the same time. Buying an equivalent SP Mower in B&Q today would be £250, so you have saved me a fortune. Much appreciated.

    Hi ya mate. I appreciated your tutorial video so much that the least I can do is give yourself and any future viewers an update..?
    I take my hat off to ya mate...🙌👏. I got straight home from work today and followed each step of this video again to strip, clean and rebuild the carburetor. I wouldn't have achieved this without your help. The job was a complete success in just one attempt. Everything you said and did in this video is absolutely spot on. There was lots of gunk in the carb and even some rusty water in the bowl. Cleaned and scrubbed everything,...removed the jets and unblocked the clogged holes etc. Bolted everything back onto the mower,......kept pumping the primer bulb until I saw petrol squirt out in the carb,......and on the 2nd pull it fired up and purred like a kitten again...!! Unbelievable. I'm really chuffed mate. I mowed the back lawn as a tester to make sure I'd got everything right. It hasn't run this smooth since the day I bought it from new. And that's no exaggeration!
    *FOR ANYONE WITH A MOUNTFIELD CARBURETOR PROBLEM WHO IS SCROLLING THROUGH THESE COMMENTS WONDERING IF THIS VIDEO IS WORTH WATCHING..? THE ANSWER IS A BIG 'YES'. WATCH AND FOLLOW THE EASY TO UNDERSTAND INSTRUCTIONS ON THIS VIDEO, AND I GUARANTEE YOU ALL 100% THAT YOUR MOWER WILL BE UP AND RUNNING LIKE NEW IN NO TIME AT ALL* 🤝👌💪👍😊

Did the carb cleanup as shown and still hunting found out I had replaced in line filter with home brew motor Bike filter which I had pinched too tight with hose clamp and flow rate was real low . turned out it just ran for the full bowl then cut out , then of course bowl would fill again and run for another 5 minutes. Drove me nuts but your tips lead me to the fuel issue. Martin

    Also, when I tipped it on its side to quickly check the blade, some fuel seemed to run out from where the carb is, will check that out also.

    what in fact is holding the carb on is the fuel pipe from the tank, squeeze the clip on the carb end and ease it off. You can then ease the carb off the studs and flick the thin spring off and then the rod. Top tip, be careful with the pipe as they do go hard and will break ease it off with a flat bladed screwdriver.

    • @Voice-Actor
      @Voice-Actor 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Precisely. I serviced my Sp414 this weekend. Just disconnecting the pipe on the right of the carb. will ease removal of it. The collar that fell off is to locate the inlet gasket properly. The collar floats and goes on the carb first, not in the plastic cover.

    👏👏👏.....cheers for this mate. Nice one. I've had my mountfield RS 100 for about 3 yrs now. I bought it from new. But for the first time in 3yrs it wouldn't start. Eventually I managed to fire it up but it wouldn't tick over and kept conking out..? I re fueled it with fresh premium petrol,...cleaned the spark plug and tested for a spark. All good. But it didn't fix the problem. I checked the fuel was reaching the carb, and I checked the primer bulb was working. All good. But it still didn't fix the problem. My mate said it sounded like it was something to do with the carb..? I got as far as removing the air filter box and the top cowling etc, but I couldn't work out how to remove the carb cos of that long thin spring and the linkage. I've never taken a carb apart in my life before, but after watching your superb tutorial video this evening I can't wait until I get home from work tomorrow and go out into the garden with my tools and my tablet to watch this video again as I follow you each step of the way. I was not confident at all about attempting to strip and clean the carb cos I've never done anything like this in my life. But I'm really happy and confident after searching TH-cam for ...
    "Mountfield RS 100 won't start" ....
    And seeing your video at the top of the league. You certainly know your stuff mate, and the way you have presented this tutorial is so easy to take everything onboard and understand exactly what to do cos you haven't gone into any confusing technical rubbish that I don't need to know. Short ,...sweet,...and straight to the point. Excellent stuff. I've now subscribed to your channel mate. Well done, and thankyou very much. 👌👏👏👏🤝🤝🤝😊👍

    Hi great video. I had the hunting problem last year, cleaned carb and put back three times but still bad. Eventually I found another black plastic jet, i think, on the top by the plastic throttle control, cleaned it and cured it. Might have been coincidence but just started it today and still ok.

    I have that model, you can get the sparkplug cap off without removing the top, it's probably easier while not holding a camera. its the fuel line stopping you get the carb off the studs.

    Great Video. i have same Mower got it for £15.00 from car boot sale in Feb. Came with a spare carb as well the only problem i have it runs uneven, hunts and surges. I suspect carb needs a good clean the jet screw in the spare carb will not budge either, obviously previous owner just swapped carbs then left it full of old fuel over the winter again also looks like the air filter has seen better days.

    Great video Mower Man. I have a Mountfield 414, stripped it and cleaned it with carb spray, put it all back together again, and it is still surging and hunting. Am I missing something? Checked the spark plug with multimeter, all fine, plus checked the ignition coil with multimeter, all fine there too. Bulb was pressing fine, no leaks and whilst stripping the carb down I could see the petrol seeping out when bulb was pressed. Any other suggestions?

    Hi. I followed your video and cleaned the carb out along with checking fuel line. spark plug and fully emptying petrol tank. I'd got some oil mixed in with the petrol previously and it wouldn't start. Now it is starting but only runs very briefly before cutting out again. Could there be another blockage elsewhere?

I serviced mine new spark plug new fuel new oil serviced the carburettor starts perfectly runs for 30 secs or so and then cuts out unless you keep pressing the primer. Bought a replacement carburettor same problem. still cuts out after the fuel from the primer runs out. fuel definitely running from fuel tank to carb. have taken the in line fuel filter out and cleaned it seems to be ok .any suggestions @Mower man?

    Great video as always mate. I’m having real trouble with my mountfield mower and it’s starting to drive me mad - I’ve got no spark. I’ve replaced the plug, the coil and adjusted the gap between the coil and the flywheel. Could it be the the little electronic kill switch The is engaged by the leaver on the handle?
    Before I realised there was no spark, I cleaned the carburettor and fuel lines 😫

    The emulsion tube in carb throat pushes out with screwdriver once main jet removed if stubborn. Up top the plastic bit is idle jet , remove idle screw , n pry out , it has a tiny o-ring which carb spray can damage in same way as bowl seal. Heating them with hair dryer will shrink them

I went to try to start it today and it caught fire at the hole where you can see the primer pumping fuel. What could be the cause of this? Some kind of seal or too much fuel in that hole?
