Great video. I'm a mechanic with a good engineering background but was unaware how the drive worked. Now it all makes sense!! Feel happy now to strip and assemble without any scary moments. Many thanks for taking the time to film.
You are welcome
I found this as I am going to get the carb off my HRX 537 tomorrow and give it a clean. After 9 years and about 1,000 miles behind the the thing it’s now running a bit rich so I thought it about time to do a carb strip down and clean- I do oil, filter etc regularly but this will be my first go at the carb and this video is really useful. I’ll probably have it on call as I’m working!
Thank you.
That's what the video is for mate.. good luck
If I wasn't a mower mechanic and I lived in the UK I'd bring my mowers to you for repairs and maintenance and I hope people there realize just how awesome you are and bring you business. Honda in America is always a good gamble because they sell. Nice shot of the top of your head when you mounted the carburetor. Keep up the good work Mick.
Well I like people to see the top of my head lol ta for the comment.. hope all is good your end
Micks Mowers Happy thanks giving my friend Riley Boy loves it when packages come i bet
Oh he loves a package
Another one saved! Bravo Mate! I hope all is well over the pond! Cheers! Zip~
Yooo hi mate.. ta for popping over.. hope all is good your end.. I just fighting with a vintage engine at the moment
Nice work It is nice to watch a master clean that carb.
Well I watch the best
Looks like when he said "serviced the air filter" that he tried to wash it. Many old timers wash paper filters in soap and water!! One of my customers washed a quantum filter for 20 years! it ran so rich it always belched black smoke! He thought I rebuilt the engine when I first changed the air filter and there was no smoke or smell. He said his wife was happy as he didn't smell like fumes anymore when he cut the grass! Cheers mate!
Yeah you might be right.. I can't believe he sold it and all it needed was a new plug.. hope all is ok mate ..
A great video Mick, featuring a cracking fix. I love watching your channel fella, you’re a TH-cam legend 👍🏼
Thanks my friend
Hi Mick, looks like you’ve more or less sorted that one out, I’ve worked on these a lot as we always run one for work. The drive does sound a bit dry, I find a spot of grease on the cog usually solves that. Good video🙂👍
Yeah I did take it apart and grease it up.. it was super dry..
Mick, get two short pieces of wood dowels and put them in the bolt holes. Stack all the gasket and parts, then pull out dowels one at at time while applying pressure, and insert the carb bolts. Works great. Trust me.
I’ve had a couple of Honda carbs, I just had to replace, but over here, they are less than $25.00.
Jim
Right Jim I will give it a go
Hi Mick, great video! You saved my weekend!
Glad I helped.. ta for watching
Great job again mick as usual that was one fiddly job nice mower great to see riley boy again 👍👍👍👍
Yeah mate was fiddly.
Fabulous job of taking a hunter and making it like new again. That carb installation was a bummer. I had much difficulty not fixing my eyes on that silver roll of I think insulation at the side of the mower. It looked like a truck muffler but I think it was insulation. I am easily distrac - did you see those birds fly over? Great job. Love that Riley Boy. Stay safe.
Yeah it's Installation.. nearly finished it
hi mick great to see riley boy and a good honda video
Ta mark
Nice work bud 👍
Brilliant video mick. Nice machine 👍
Ahhh, the Bruce Pender patented carb cleaning pan!!! Brilliant! You might want to dirty it up a bit more though for effect!
@@tommyhanlon8012 Our Thanks giving was more than a month ago. But no i didn't us it for the turkey. Hi Mick and Ken
Yep I got me one of those too!
Awesome job on a cracking machine 👍 Tam.
Ta brother
Good work mick mate 👍
Ta mate
The most technical intake configuration hands down. Hate working on these personally.
Gasket, spacer, gasket, carb, gasket, cover, gasket, filter... oh, did I mention gasket?
But, the easiest recoils to pull 👍
Here in the states that looks identical to the HRX217 Versamow! Wonder why across the pond it’s numbered differently? Got some googling to do!
Great job as always! 🤙🏻🇺🇸🦅🔧
Hi mate.. yeah looks the same.. oh nice job on the blower and good to see the lift table in use ..
537 =53 cm and 7 hp. 217 = 21 inches and 7 hp. 21 inc = 53 cm. That might be the reason?
@@NilsKall perfect🤙🏻🔧🇺🇸🦅
@@pattayperformance buying a hrx tomorrow! 50$, probably worth it.
@@NilsKall if it’s the HRX217 that’s a $500 machine with bag, fully serviced and ready to mow! We love those mowers on our channel!
Good job once again mick!! I noticed the rear end of a hayter bag on a mower, will that be an upcoming vid? Looks like an interesting mower😁
Yeah hayter coming up soon mate. You miss nothing do ya
@@themowerman ohh I can’t wait😁 no mate I don’t miss nothing haha
@@jordanfranklin5563 lol
Hey Mick , my sp555v has the same engine on it , I’m sure they long bolts are m4-6 , I took 2 similar bolts out my bolt organiser box cut the heads off ( added slots for plain screwdriver and used them for alignment for the block head heat shield carb etc 👍 hope this helps bud
Yeah ta mate someone else mentioned that
Ah lol o well worth a try bud
Great video as always mate
Thanks big boy
Good work. Hopefully it will make a good profit.
Oh it did.. very nice indeed.. welder has just showed up waiting for the mask.
@@themowerman Cool.Enjoy!
Hi great video! Which is the better mower, stilh RM 756 or the Honda hrx537 for reliability?
It's a wide question.. I would go to the Honda side
@@themowerman
Thanks for replying, I think I might just do that, as the weight is a factor also.
Nice, again Mick👍
Ta mate
Heck ya great work bud
Ta mate
Riley has a calendar with Santa hat coming from Warwickshire. Hope that will suit, it's not exactly what was on the wish list....
Oh your too kind.. really.. he will love it..
@@themowerman Actually I'm ashamed to admit the little nipper has been lacking his due lately in my thoughts. After all, he's the reason we're all here on your channel....
Hi mick, can you do a video on comparing the 35 classic Briggs and the quantum power Briggs
Keep up the good work mate
Yeah that should be ok.. I will try and get it done..
Strangely I've just purchased the same bib and brace trousers on Amazon.
Your turning in to Mick's mowers over night lol
Just glew all the gaskets together it work well
LOL! I use drift pins or dowels to align all the carb parts and gaskets for assembly and still it takes me 2-3 tries before I’m satisfied. You aced it - or was that through video edit? ;-). I’m sure this will go for quite a few quid.
Oh no editing.. that can be tricky.. yeah a prity penny mate
Nice one good video 👍
Ta mate
50 subs to go pal 👌👌
Yeah mate it's picked up well this week
@@themowerman that'll be my funky dancing scaring people your way 🤣🤣🤣
@@TheCountryCottageGardener lol
Where do you advertise your mowers
eBay
Can you use WD40 to clean the carburettor please?
Yes...
sounds great, top job.
Ta mate how's the shed
@@themowerman still on the pallet lol, tomorrow is d day.
Dont suppose you have a spare bag for one of these do you mick
Hmmm I will have a look
@@themowerman thanks buddy
Need to tighten the end of the governor arm spring. Slightly too slow.
No it's just a carb adjustment
@@themowerman I have yet to see a Honda carb that is adjustable. Maybe it's a Europe/Asia thing.
@@999thenewman just needed the ideal adjusting
@@themowerman Awesome job, Mick. I understand there's a lot of off-camera work.
Good job mate . They can be a swine .
Yeah mate
Honda lawnmower engines are reliable. However, I've never been impressed with any lawnmower that is 100% Honda design - too many plastic components, difficult maintenance access, self propelled drive problems, etc.
In my view, Honda has failed to impress with a reputation for quality in its lawnmower range and other power garden equipment, which is a pity from a great company like Honda.
Yes I agree.. especially the drive problem on the bigger units..
🙋♂️ Did you say the old pants 🤔
Yeah.. it smells so bad lol
