Just fixed my 1st ever mower following your video. Worked in first pull and carburator looked like new. Thumbs up.
Thank you for this video!! It was EXACTLY what I needed to get my Craftsman running again after sitting in a shed for 2 years. I learned a great deal from this video and left more knowledgeable and self-sufficient because of it. Huge reason I love TH-cam is because of content like yours. Outstanding!!!
TY for the video. Pulled me out of a jamb. Got her running like a top and I am no mechanic!
Awesome video. Got my mower back running at no cost. Happy wife = happy life!
Thank you for this video.. I took a shop for the warranty, they charge 90 for assessment plus whatever it needed to get done, probably a cleaning/tune up, for another 100, I saw this video and went to grab my deposit and lawn mower, cleaned carborator and it run better than it did before.. you saved me 200.. cheers to that!
Thank you! Your video helped me to finish the cleaning job in 20 minutes, it may not consider as "quick" but that was my first time working on this engine. Excellent tutorial. Keep it up!
i can only get my employee to finish 2-4 a day. your hired lol
Thank you! Great video. The close up of the carburetor showed the linkage and somehow my chock was passed the stop. Good trick removing the flapper. I was able to correct the problem.
Glad it helped
Thank you. Very helpful. You saved my mower! And your Bill Paxton's voice impersonation is totally bang on.
lol thats the second time someone has said that
I found a curb alert on this exact one
It ran fine but would stop running after 10 mins or so. Big tip. Gas cap wasn’t. Venting easy fix.
Thats actualy more common than you would think.
Thanks for the video. I have the exact same model. Now is running great!
Nice! Glad i could help!
This video is amazing and helped me save 60 bucks twice now
This is exactly the video I needed. Thanks so much!
glad it helped
My Neighbor was tossing her ex husbands one year old mower that sat and was leaking gas. I think he might of added oil to the tank based on the dried out green sludge in the fuel bowl. It would not run so he hired a lawn service. When I found your video it was like having it serviced at my house. I followed all your steps and it fired right off. Also Carb Cleaner and Sea Foam are great. Thanks very much. Hank Drabczak
Your welcome!
Thanks for the info about the choke linkage. Would have never guessed. Bought it at a garage sale: "Starts but won't run." The main jet was clogged from junk at the bowl end..
Glad to help
This was great, fixed my mower. thanks
Thanks for your video. Pretty helpful--and one of the only ones I could find out there on this mower engine for carb removal. Troubleshooting my Columbia 159 cc and starting with a good carb cleaning. Tried running it afterwards but still boggy. Going to double check all the levers and springs are on properly, run the mower, and go from there.
Update: fixed the spring on the front carb switch and the linkage placement on the shutoff component. Mower seems to be running well now. Thanks again!
Glad it helped
New update: mower still suffering from some kind of bogging down. Runs, bogs down, runs, and then cuts out eventually.
Cleaned the carb three times, dumped fuel (only rinsed gas tank with fuel; no air gun), changed spark plug, and burned/shook muffler empty. Fuel filter was changed early last year and the beginning of this season. I changed oil a couple months ago. The carburetor looked fairly clean; no rusting or discolouring. The ignition coil is rusty on the metal part beside the engine block.
I haven't really checked the gas cap but would it cause this symptom?
Not sure what to do now... Clean it again or check the ignition coil?
@@bounjamin if the vent in the gas cap is clogged it will cause these symptoms. When it starts acting up crack open gas cap. If it runs good again get new cap.
@@smallengineguys Thanks for reply. I tried running and cracking the gas cap but it still bogged down and cut out...
It's nice video. How to set airflow.
recorded and repair. good job. thanks.
Great video! This is an MTD branded engine called Powermore
Thank you amazing video I had my choke backwards now its straight thanks to you
glad it helped
@@smallengineguys I don't know if I have a s***** phone or what but I could not see what you were doing with the choke rods there on that little casing that attaches to the outside of the carburetor that is the most confusing choke mechanism I've seen in my life I don't know why they had to make it that difficult that's typical Craftsman crap for you
My Cub Cadet push mower has the same engine - 159cc
I have this mower and it runs for 10 minutes and stalls. Also the idle is weak. May be something to do when the engine warms up? Or a misplaced carb gasket?
2 possibilities. bad coil. when it gets warm it dies. or bad gas cap. there is a vent in it that gets clogged stopping the flow of gas. this is guessing that you've already done carb and replaced plug and oil.
@@smallengineguys I didn't even think to blow the gas cap out. I haven't had to change a coil in years. I usually just file off any rust. This thing looks like new. Just a lot going on as far as linkage.
@@tpc3416 filing off rust wont help. Just crack open gas cap let it run see what happens. Vent is hard to find sometimes.
Save me time and more effort. Thanks!
Thank you is really helping
you are welcome!
Thanks!
No problem! thank you so much!
@small engine guys
Thnx for the vid. I have a 159cc M215 craftsman. I followed your vid and got mine running again but it doesn't run smooth. Reviewing your vid, I forgot to take out the black screw and clean that one jet. Does the top black screw need to be set a certain number of turns? Or does it not matter?
doesn't matter. that's idle screw but this never idles
It would have been very helpful if you would have shown us how many turns in or out each adjustment needs to be set at. I’m at that stage and I cannot get the mower to run more than about 1 second at a time.
what adjustments there are none. you need to clean the carb like in this video
I bought same lawnmower, it had bad gas in it and sat for a year. It starts with quick start spray and dies in few seconds. What do you think is the problem? I drained all the bad gas out and drained bad gas from the carb.
It's got good compression and spark. Thanks in advance 🙏 subscribed
CARB FOLLOW THIS VIDEO
Clean your carburetor man that's what he just showed you wasn't it
@@smallengineguys I got the exact same lawn mower took it apart cleaned it twice did not work have no idea what's wrong with it like the one other guy said it will start with starter fluid and then just dies have no idea floats good all passages clear needles good beats me
@@gregschroer2314 still carb sorry. Jet still not clean enough.
I have the exact lawnmower and the hose that go from the top of fuel tank to a valve were rotted. The valve has 2 ports and one port is at a angle. One hose goes on top of the fuel tank and the other hose goes behind the air filter housing. Is there a certain way the valve has to be facing? On the valve under the shield it has 2 letters. T and P? I changed the hoses and now my lane mower won’t start
the fuel on off valve? if turned in line with fuel hose its on. crank case vent hose is not important
It's an MTD engine. I have the same engine in my Troy-bilt lawnmower.
no mtd didnt make engines they made the mower they go on. this is a chinese motor made for mtd craftsman etc. support.mtdproducts.com/s/article/1870-1#:~:text=Details&text=Where%20are%20MTD%20branded%20engines,overhead%20valve%20(OHV)%20engine.
Thanks for the video🙌
No problem!! Glad i could help!!
Can you show the connection of linkage connection. Thank you.
I wonder why these suck so bad compared to other models. These carburetors are always getting gummed up. Seems like the models with the manual primer bulb are a little more robust.
dear thanks for information, my teller is 159cc OHV MTD CRAFTSMAN , ITS NEW I USED IT VERY LITTLE I TRIED IT . 1ST I PRIME IT RUNS FOR THE AMOUNT OF PRIMING AND STOPS TILL I PRIMED AGAN AND AGAIN, CAN YOU HELP PLEASE. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE
its a dirty carb. it needs cleaning. i need to know what motor it is. briggs and stratton, tecumseh, kohler or honda. also is it set up like this where the crank shaft is coming out the bottom or is the crank shaft coming out the side.
Great video do you know where I can get this replacement carb I’ve searched for it but can’t find the exact one
its in the description. you will need to use your choke arm.
i cleaned the carb but now the engine runs at too high of rpm. Is there a way to adjust the running speed?
double check the throttle linkage make sure it connected. it happens. also make sure the throttle moves free.
Where is the location of the spark plugs on the craftersman m215 lawn mower
front of the engine
Looks like a kohler motor.
Kinda but even has some subaru traits
This is the carburator i was looking for a 159 cc craftsman and ordered it the one i recieved does not have huayi on the side but same part number. also came with a red gas attacment to prim with that my mower doesnt have. will this still work?
Doesn't sound right but it may work. Don't I have this carb listed in my description?
@@smallengineguys yes thats where i ordered it from linked to amazon. looks like it has the same holes.. just fustrated been trying to fix this mower for the last 4 weeks. So glad i found your video it helped.. guess ill try and see if it works.
@@reneesmith438 ok not sure what the primer is for but don't worry about that this doesn't use it. You will need to remove the choke arm from the new one and use old choke arm also I found taking off the recoil helps with attaching choke return mechanism
@@smallengineguys Ok will do ....Thank you so much for replying it is appreciated !
I couldn't figure out that Craftsman confusing choke mechanism so what I did is I just took the whole muffler with the choke on it off my Toro and put it on the Craftsman took theirs off put the Toro muffler on there with the choke mechanism on there and just ran my Toro choke rods that works fine I don't know why Craftsman had to get all intricate like that but it's crazy I guess that's why they're made in China now most of them
👍
These little clones from craftsman suck. I knew the m260 was a briggs and stratton so I stupidly assumed the m270 would be as well.
Yeah im not a big fan. Its almost a subaru clone but not enough to find parts.
You didn't show how to pull the pin
it just pulls out.
Didn't hear it run?
it ran. its how i get paid.
No prime lawn mower are so stupid. You leave gas in there for 2 weeks and your cleaning carb. Rather push a button a few times but maybe I'm crazy idk lol
Dude most of videos excellent but the hardest part of the whole thing you keep the camera too low I couldn't even see what you were doing with the choke rods at the very end of it there that's the hardest part man I could not see what you were doing because you can't fricking with the camera too much
Watch me taking them off at 2:36 then reverse it. This video was when i first started this. Ive gotten much better at recording since and will continue to improve.
Can you please help me out to find this carburetor 247377300 or 12AGA2MP793. I tried to watch you several times. I'm not a mechanic, I'm just a DIY guy.Thank you.
i need to know what year but here is the parts diagram for all three years www.partstree.com/search/?type=model&term=+12aga2mp793+
Can get a whole new one on ebay or amazon for less than $15
I know. Thats why i put the link in the description.
@@smallengineguys my bad my dude, just saw the start where you said you didnt know where to find stuff for it. No worries. Good detailed explanation.
@@smallengineguys www.ebay.com/itm/143900460176
That's what I'm going to do I'm just going to buy me another carburetor..
I'm waiting for mine to come to the house I read a lot of reviews in the meantime on that certain Honda knock off cheap China engine lots of starting problems I'm not the only guy lot of them have not figured it out
None so far
not sure what that means
