Wow. Amazing how a $5 quart of oil could have kept a $900 engine from turning into that mess of metal. I was tickled to see you try out that 5-in-1 tool suggestion. I found putting the width of blade against a large length of the gasket seam spreads the force over a larger area. Kinda like a mason using kneeling boards/floats when troweling a concrete floor, or a hiker in Canada using snowshoes in the winter. Keeps you from sinking into the snow/concrete/aluminum. Happy Holidays to you Mr and Mrs T-Bone.
I am putting a 24 hp Briggs twin back together .I fixed the bent push rods and welded valve guide so it doesn't creep our again on number one cyl exhaust valve . I adjusted valves ,everything seems good . Turning motor over slowly by hand with a ratchet trying to get compression test on gauge .Nothing showing on guage but if you put your hand over exhaust manifold it will push your hand off with pressure ? Nothing looked damaged in bottom end at all .Cylinders seemed clean,pistons traveling good ,cam good .New push rods ,seals ,etc . I am going to remount it and try to start .Just thought I would check compression out. I had similar happen with my Harley once .No compression on gauge turning engine by hand ,but fired up ran good .
So, thank you for the video. Friends mower ran out of oil but the cams are still moving but pistons are not…haven’t removed it from the mower yet but likely a crank shaft or connecting rod I’m guessing. You did a great job showing yet another DIY guy at home how to diagnose. Thank you. Turns out the mower shop he took it to for a “tune up” didn’t put oil back in it. Broken connecting rods and parts laying in the oil pan. Your video was very informative and helpful.
Now that was chewed up T- Bone, sure pleased you shared this with us I've never seen a small engine as bad as that 👌👍, Merry Christmas to you and Mrs T-bone
Thank you. I just came across another engine, hopefully it will work for the John Deere , if it's now ruined like the other 3 engines. Thank you for watching, subscribing and commenting my friend.
Ouch! Now we know. 3 engine carnage piles. That mower is jinxed! It does not want to get repaired. Out with the junk to the scrap trailer. Done! Paul from S. Central Tx.
Yep, that one was messed up. I'm not giving up on the John Deere Zero Turn yet. Found another engine. Video coming soon. Will it work? I don't know yet.
It sure did a number on it, at least you have some parts now to help someone out with. From John and Lisa to you and Mrs T-Bone, have a Blessed and Merry Christmas. Ken's Small Engine Repair is having as Christmas Live Stream tomorrow at noon EST, come join us brother.
Yes, the bright side is some good parts. Thank you, Merry Christmas to you and your family. Sure wish I could join in but we have plans tomorrow. Please tell everyone we said hello and Merry Christmas.
Did it turn Over when installed before removed just curious , I have 24hp vtwin briggs that cranks over great and if I spray carb cleaner thru breather it will attempt and then stop cranking unless I release key and try again etc... just curious fuel is getting to carb, have spark etc...
I was hoping this engine would work. Not sure if a Courage would work. I was gifted another twin cylinder Briggs we are gonna try in the next video. Merry Christmas
You fix it!! 😆 I've been meaning to do a video on that very issue. Use a volt meter to test for 12 volts on the B terminal on the regulator with key on. If 12 volt good start engine and test for AC voltage coming from the 2 terminals from the alternator. I forget the exact voltage, it will be noticeable. If you have AC voltage, bad regulator. If no AC voltage bad alternator or magnets came loose from flywheel. Hope this helps you out my friend.
Get a real kick out of the included animal clips. My Intek 13hp died and I just checked...no compression. Guess I'll break it down and see what may have happened. Do you have a favorite engine about this size?
No compression on an intek, without watching I’m guessing either valve issues or a bad cam. Ok after watching, it was a cam issue from a grenaded rod. I have seen so many of these grenaded inteks - mostly single cylinder, they seem to be worse. As bad as they are, they are still better than a kohler courage, the infamous “bucket” engine.
Happy Holidays folks. Thanks for the education and entertainment in 2023.
Thanks for your support my friend.
Happy Holidays!
@@Mrs.T-bone Thank you. I really enjoy the content on both of your channels. Keep up the good work and try to keep your husband under control.
Thanks for another great video Mr. T-Bone. I enjoy your channel and learn so much. Say hello to your lovely bride for me. Be blessed.
Thank you Toby 😊. Will do my friend, yes she reads the comments and responds to as many as she can.
Hi Mr Toby, thanks for your support! Take care.

Exactly, just $5 bucks and tighten oil filter. Yes that tool worked great. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Happy Holidays!
Boy, what a mess! I love the vids. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Yep, it's a mess. Thanks so much. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.

Ok, Im missing your videos!
Sorry, thank you. Working on it. Health issues, we are considering a video to explain what is going on. Stay tuned, thanks for your support.

Yes, it was a mess. Thank you. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Merry Christmas!
Great video
Thank you 😊
I cut a hole in my engine bench for the haft on the vertical engine to go through. It makes it nice I believe, I can even start it on my bench.
Awesome. Thanks for watching and commenting. Great idea
Hope all's well, needing my fixed for another video!👍
Thank you, we are hoping to get one out soon. We've been delayed due to some health issues.
Best wishes to getting well soon!
Thank you for the tip and thank you for the video
Merry Christmas brother
Merry Christmas to you and your family my friend
I currently have an 18.5 intek that runs great sitting around.
Thank you. I just came across another engine, hopefully it will work for the John Deere , if it's now ruined like the other 3 engines. Thank you for watching, subscribing and commenting my friend.

Great video thank you ….. that was an implosion
T-Bone, order you some Taryl putty and fix that engine case....😉
Merry Christmas to you and the wife!
Taryl pudy can fix it 😆. Merry Christmas to you and your family my friend
Merry Christmas!
Now that is what you call chewed up, what a mess! Maintenance, maintenance, maintenance and she will keep going.
Been there a few times. Same carnage.

Yep, that one was messed up. I'm not giving up on the John Deere Zero Turn yet. Found another engine. Video coming soon. Will it work? I don't know yet.
@@RaleysSmallEngines only one way to find out if it will work. I have faith in you. If the PTO shaft is the same, it should work.
Mikel
It sure did a number on it, at least you have some parts now to help someone out with.
From John and Lisa to you and Mrs T-Bone, have a Blessed and Merry Christmas.
Ken's Small Engine Repair is having as Christmas Live Stream tomorrow at noon EST, come join us brother.
Do we know someone who would try and weld that 🤔
Yes, the bright side is some good parts. Thank you, Merry Christmas to you and your family. Sure wish I could join in but we have plans tomorrow. Please tell everyone we said hello and Merry Christmas.
@@RaleysSmallEngines thanks and I sure will.
@@tinkeringtaylor3053 Nev I'm sure it'd look just like brand new......NOT!!! 🤣
Merry Christmas John and Lisa! 🎄
Okay👍

Thank you, same to you and your family my friend
Happy Holidays Mr Willie and Family!
Thanks T-Bone
You're welcome my friend
Merry christmas
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Ohh darn.I hoping you had good motor.does kohler courage motor fit on z225 0turn? It's 20 hp.
I was hoping this engine would work. Not sure if a Courage would work. I was gifted another twin cylinder Briggs we are gonna try in the next video. Merry Christmas
@@RaleysSmallEngines great can't wait for next video.merry Christmas to you and happy new year 😊
Kaboom that motor went.
Good morning T-bone,,what happens when your battery doesn't charge on your sit down lawn mower..🍺🍺🍺🍺😜

yeah thats done man
That 5 in 1 came out of my work trailer…2009. Hahaha.
😂😄😂
That engine reminds me of my Kohler Discourage 19
Get a real kick out of the included animal clips. My Intek 13hp died and I just checked...no compression. Guess I'll break it down and see what may have happened. Do you have a favorite engine about this size?
Great, thank you. My favorite is a Kawasaki.
At 6:05 I thought - yup, that's done.
Wow! Never seen one that bad Tbone..
Way worse than I expected.
Mary chrismiss for Canada 🇨🇦
Merry Christmas to you and your family my friend
Merry Christmas!
The cam shaft
No compression on an intek, without watching I’m guessing either valve issues or a bad cam.
Ok after watching, it was a cam issue from a grenaded rod. I have seen so many of these grenaded inteks - mostly single cylinder, they seem to be worse. As bad as they are, they are still better than a kohler courage, the infamous “bucket” engine.
Exactly
It's toast. 😮
Yes it is.
It's so easy to check the oil and they never do 😮
Got that right. They see a leak and ignore it. I don't understand why. Thanks for watching and commenting my friend.
I've never seen one that bad ever
I think you gave up on that tooooooooo easy T-Bone 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Well, another one bites the dust. Ya right, not worth fixing.
Thanks brother, we have more options on the way.
Nobody ever checks the oil
Got that right my friend
Loose oil filter And loose oil change drain 😮😮
Yep
@@RaleysSmallEngines thing is how that could have happened with this engine 😡🤬🤬😡❓❓
*WOW* what an f'd up motor.
Yes it is
yes I belive it was junk.
Whelp that motors trash
