    Great video! I was looking for a video that addressed this issue.
    I bought a used Simplicity Regent riding mower with a 16 HP Kohler motor. It is an older mower, but very clean and in good shape. When I was mowing, it would cough a couple of times, but it kept running. Finally, after I used it for about six 1 hour mowing sessions, it kept coughing to the point where I had to put it away and use my big tractor to finish the mowing. I looked at the engine and the arrow on the fuel filter was pointing back toward the gas tank which didn't seem right. I ordered a new Kohler fuel filter, took the old one off, installed the new one with the arrow pointed toward the carburetor. I started it and did all of my mowing (1 hour) with no coughing or sputtering.
    Your video confirmed my suspicions that the filter was on backwards. Thank you !

    If you don't have the zip tie tool you can hand tighten them and use toe nail clippers to flush cut them. Toe nail clippers don't leave sharp edges to cut yourself on.

    Very good Jeremy!! That's the filter we use except we buy them from Rotary, part number 10352. We put them on every riding mower that we do a fuel related repair on. BTW now I'm gonna have to buy a zip tie tool because my wife is the zip tie master Lol. Now she is gonna want that tool. Thanks a lot Lol

    I am impressed. Somebody else besides me uses a ziptie gun. I don't use zip ties on fuel lines but i do on lots of bn other things. Another benefit of the gun is that it doesn't leave razor sharp points on the cut ends. If you have ever reached ito a wiring rack where the installer used side cutters you will know what i mean. I have the scars and the T shirt.

    I was reluctant to get one of those tools, thinking it was a waste of money for a gimmick. But no, it's been most useful especially in tight spaces where you can't get to with two hands and pliers, and then have to snip the end. What I didn't know that you taught me was that it applies a given, correct torque! Yabbadabba! I have a zip-tie torque tool!

    Just changed the fuel filter with the same clear filter as this video. Is it "normal" for the filter to be half full of fuel and the other half air? The zero turn mower has a fuel pump and the tank is full. The mower runs perfectly well.
    I forgot to check if the old filter was full.

    Ever seen this issue and what may cause it- MTD older rider. Gas tank sits in front of steering wheel. Hose comes down and around to filter then carb. I had put new lines and carb on rider last year. Flushed tank etc when I brought it used. Changed the filter which had a round red one on it. Got a Briggs clear see through gas filter. Hooked it up right. I also installed a shut off before filter. Each time I am done mowing I shut off the valve and run gas out carb till dies. Now for a good while the filter had gas filled in it when mower ran. I see my past 3 mowings when mower is running no gas in filter. None-0. Shut off valve is fully open. Oddly mower runs fine? How is it mower is running 1+ hrs and not a drop of gas is in filter? Side note- I now have a new ( same type ) filter on. I get same issue.

    • @THEMOWERMEDIC1

      It is a gravity flow system the filter will never fill with fuel unless the filter is vertically mounted

  • @wsbill14224
    @wsbill14224 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    It should be noted that pleated paper fuel filters are better but screens are used for snowblowers and generators because they're less likely to ice up. The reason paper filters have an arrow is so you can see the dirt in the filter not so it will last longer. It will trap the same amount of dirt in either direction you just won't see it if you put it in backwards.

    Do the red and white briggs type of filters have a flow direction. I believe I took one apart before to see the difference inside and one side of the filter had a little bit more space for debris to collect.
