I hear you about the heat here, if i work in my shop i have to do it early , i cannot wait until this heat stops. I really enjoy your channel, i live in texas as well and enjoy working on engines of all kinds.👍👍👍

[@philliphall5198]

I agree on early, I start at 4 or 5 am tell around 11/12 and that’s it, I’m north of him on i20 and dam it’s the hottest and driest I ever remember

The heat this year has been hell on every thing and every one
It’s been slow since nothing growing and it’s fine with me
Chainsaws are coming in now and I’m only working till noon until it cools off

[@Jim-ie6uf]

Where’s the oil or STP or assembly lube on the parts???

[@SmallEngineDIY]

Look in the video. You will see a black oil can...

[@philliphall5198]

One o five lube is what I still use for 63 years 😊

[@robertmailhos8159]

It's either rebuild it or put on another engine on the John Deere mower you did what you thought was best for this mower

[@joeydepalmer4457]

Is there anything that can be done with the engine to give it better performance? Not racing performance, just improve it. have a riding mower, with out the mower parts so it is strictly a little work horse and basic around town transport

You need to clean up the fly wheel, it's rusty. Also new coil packs would help.

[@marcnissen578]

Did you inspect the crank did you check it for nicks or scratches cause if it’s fit any of that your wasting your money and time putting it back together cause it won’t run long and the amount of debris that was in the crankcase I wouldn’t put nothing together until I checked out the crank for any issues it might possibly have

[@SmallEngineDIY]

I checked it out. No problems.

[@philliphall5198]

Now I remember why I don’t make videos for the public
Just for friends and family

[@mikeross8486]

I would clean up the flywheel and coils..... will have a better spark !!!

[@SmallEngineDIY]

I might do that👍👍

[@halesmallengine855]

Torque specs and assembly lube must be optional now.

[@SmallEngineDIY]

Look in the video. You will see a black oil can...

[@philliphall5198]

Don’t need fancy lube, just motor oil
It’s a new fad for kids to buy the crap

[@gadasavideos8564]

It does crank over, just doesn't start. Aren't you concerned about burning up starter with those long crank overs.

[@coryheckler2354]

You could use break clean and fix your hone with epoxie and continue. Don't waste you time and money. This has happen to me. Be smart my friends.

[@kevinkline3491]

Not a good video for others to follow. There’s many flaws for one thing you used no oil or assembly lube. The Rings are going to score that cylinder wall as soon as the engine starts! The piston pin should’ve been lubed and the connecting rod bores should’ve been lubed. All of that does not lube quick when the engine first starts! You’re gonna do quite a bit of damage when that motor runs for the very first time! Torque specs should’ve been adhered to. It’s kind of sad to spend money on new parts and end up doing damage to them on the first start up! The ring gaps should also be equally spaced. Next time read and follow the instructions!
