By the way, Taryl could have edited out the part when the mower didn’t re-start after the repairs he made, but he didn’t. Just shows he’s an honest man with good character. 👍
Well that’s just the reality. Showing that keeps people from getting discouraged if they run into problems.
@@lawnmowerdude will admit that vertical pull starter is still a good one,I figured for sitting for so long it would have gotten a wd 40 bath and new rope, it would have broken on me after a few pulls
Well either it fires and you get to see it, or it don’t… You can kinda assume if the vid ends and there isn’t a show of success that it didn’t end the way it was planned. I’d be suspicious if they said it all worked but never showed it running or not
Quite the contrast when compared to those who cook on here or television, & NEVER make anything that tastes bad...
But are those his real teeth?
Back in the mid 70's when I was a kid, I was given a old 60's Montgomery Ward push mower by this little old lady down the street. It was a Powr Kraft 3 HP, painted gold with a wind up starter, I was fascinated with the wind up starter. With the help of my father, we flushed the tank and cleaned the carbanator, there was no TH-cam back then, so we used a puller to pop the flywheel off :D cleaned and set the points. Hot spark and compresieown...... a little dinosaur juice, wound her up and she popped right off! My father adjusted the carbanator and she ran like a champ :) I mowed many lawns with Goldie, the wind up starter fascinated people, "How do you start this thing?" Oh. you just wind her up, set the choke.... and twist this handle :D
Dad had one of those,,he would just crank on it till it started, some times half an hour and it would finally catch,and run, points always worked
I have that same mower 1965 Powr Kraft gold with crank wind starter. It’s cool. It reminds me of the mower my Dad had about 1970.
We had our first 4 stroke in 67. A wind up toro Whirlwind 19 inch 3 hp tecumseh. Half as good as the available Briggs. The wind up system was a Joke just a novelty that's all
I don’t remember what brand of mower it was but we had a wind up mower too back in the day.
I'm still kicking my ass for not saving the two wind up covers I had as a kid!
My dad had one of those 19" Toros. He bought it in 66 or 67. There was no scalp disc on the blade that I remember. Also the blade was S shaped. He used a side bagger. He mower with that mower until 1990 and sold it to another guy at a garage sale. Always easy to start and so light. The original Toro wheels were wider so they didn't leave marks on the lawn. He had the Tekumish engine with the exhaust through the deck. Thanks for the memories.
They did have S shaped blades, remember seeing one for the first time and thought Toro must have some good engineers
It's definitely worth polishing. Rebuild the engine, clean and paint everything, new blade, new decals. It's a classic.
This was the first machine I was ever trusted with. My dad's old toro mower. Fills me with joy to hear the sound of it running. Really takes me back. :) Thanks so much!
My earliest memories are fresh cut lawns by a rich running 2 stroke Jacobson
It just needed some T.L..C. Taryl loving care!
Been watching 2 weeks straight of taryl videos since discovering this channel. This dude is awesome. We had one of these mowers growing up and seeing this thing runs brings back fond childhood memories.
I like when a mechanic knows both older and new models
It's really unbelievable the depth and history of his expertise and professionalism to be able to repair a Mower that is more than 50 years old! How unique is that talent! Plus all the comedy and levity makes him truly a pleasure to watch this Hillbillie. Fantastic all the way around. 👍👍👍
That ending with the “camera man” was freak’n hilarious. Whoever made that camera head did a good job. That was also another good repair on a mower.
But by the way he was jumping around I knew it was slippers HaHa!
Once Taryl took the plastic cover off, the machine looked way more familiar. Never see those covers, nice save Taryl and you really got us with " Mr. 🎥 man " ! 👍🙂
Best entertaining small engine channel hands down! Keep em coming, Taryl!
Another entertaining video from the multi talented Dactyl family!!! I am not the longest tenured subscriber but i consider myself The Dactyl family's most enthusiastic fan!!! Thank you fellows for another great video. Y'all not only entertain & educate but you are creating a good source of information for the history of small engines & their uses. Most likely Taryl Dactyl will be referenced by future generations for years to come!!! Thank you for sharing your wisdom Mr. D.
Taryl you are self made man and a master Mechanic I have learn so much from you and I am 73 years old Thank You Sir I love your channel
Great mechanic and teacher for we DIYers who like the old equipment. I like the detailed instruction TD gives as he goes through the renovation steps. I never knew about wireless tachometers till I subscribed to this channel. I'm glad he saved this perfectly useful mower from the scrap. On another note, the people who designed and engineered these old gas engines were geniuses. The way they operate is so clever. Thanks.
Could you imagine someone driving down the street seeing you mowing snow at your house you wouldn't have to worry about coming over to say hi lol
The mower us not a "turd," it's a "classic!" Thanks for another great video. In particular, your detailed explanations during each stage of work as you returned this machine to operating condition were superb. Mr Cameraman's work was also high quality. Thanks once more.
I have a really old whirlwind 2 that still starts, runs, and functions properly. I found it when I was helping my neighbor move. It was buried under a bunch of junk for 10 to 15 years from what they said
Any equipment you touch (repair), you make it into gold! Great job Sir!
I flat wore out one like that bought in 1970. I was the family lawn care expert and was volunteered by Dad at the age of 12. It was bought by Dad at our local family run hardware. It had a different beauty cover, but everything else looks the same. I had flashbacks from the thumbnail!
Those old Toro decks are the best i have ever used. Mine had a 3 hp Tecumseh.
Wow, this brought back a lot of memories. I worked on these engines for many years when I first started working. Its amazing that there are some left out there and still running. Thanks.
My Dad was a Toro dealer for years... The wash out plug is a sign of just how good a piece of equipment Toro was turning out back then . My Dad sold a LOT of side discharge 19's and 21's . We actually had 2 or 3 customers cut off fingers using the wash out plug. Another sign of quality and I'm surprised Taryl did not mention it is the "Anti-Scalp disc" . That 50 cent piece of metal was a huge selling point that would usually ace the sale.. . The good old days
Toro, wanted to have a riding tractor in their division and successfully purchased the Wheel Horse tractor which became a part of their division of lawn mower products.
Oh good GOD! We HAD that very Toro! It lasted 17 years. VERY good machine!! Ours had the front wheel drive..
I called it the 'VEGA" because it puffed blue smoke out of the muffler like the Vegas did......
Taryl is the MAN!!!! Nice job bringing ol girl back👍
Thank you Taryldactayl for all the humor and excellent teaching skills. These instructional videos are a great help. Bless your heart.
Everytime I see these old Briggs style lawnmower engines, I’m
instantly taken back to the 1970’s and I’m 10 years old dragging home an old lawnmower that someone threw away at spring cleanup and I worked on that mower till I made it run. I even had one that had a crank up style start, 2 hp Briggs. Those were the days!
yes the crank up style had a couple of them that were given to me around that time everyone knew I like working on small engines . myself I wish I could go back to 86 when I was 10
Me to I remember pushing our mover through the neighborhood knocking on doors trying to get $5 but i usually had to take whatever you could get usually $3 lol but u could geta gallon of good fuel not this crap u get today 35 cents
that mower deck design works very well--and obviously lasts forever
I love these antique stuff, quality was on anoher level. Cheers from Sweden 🇸🇪
Definitely an interesting episode I tell ya. It’s nice to see this old mowers come to life. Such nostalgia! Well done.
Good job! Always love to see old mowers come to life again.
Taryl your so down to earth and your knowledge is more than any internet could compare, you are thee ultranet in engine experience, thank you sir for sharing your gifts, your a great gift and are appreciated much, thank you and your whole family
Hey Taryl! We had that exact mower when I was a kid. I put in a lot of steps behind the ol' Whirlwind. I had a good little business cutting neighborhood lawns. Thanks for being back good memories 👍
On these older models, I just go ahead and convert theme to electronic ignition. Do away with the old points. Always keep plenty of used coils on hand.
Me too. Easy fix.
You took the words right out of my mouth! Electronic ignition and the module is very inexpensive.
the ending🤣 pretty good
I watch most all your videos, but I really love the ones that you get old stuff going. Thanks
GREAT WORK with the beginning and camera filming. LOVE IT.
The 1967 crank start version was the first lawn mower mower I ever used back in the good old days . 😁
My Dad thought they were great cuz he didn't have to use it. The crank system Not So Good
24:31 ah, the good old Briggs 381681 diaphragm kit. I ordered those by the 2 dozen every month back in the 80s
For trimming, you can't beat a 19" mower. Light and maneuverable. My favorite was a Jacobsen, but Snapper made a good one, too. Great video - thanks!
So proud to have you in the left handed brotherhood 😊
We enjoy your videos! Thanks.
52:53 was the first time I could laugh from up the war did start. Many thanks for that you Taryl team.
I love seeing old machine's come back to life
It would be interesting to see how you drill out the broken screw.
Just a small left hand drill bit or a dreamil tool, really easy
I like that Taryl works on the old stuff and the new stuff .
"Adhesive Glue". I hate it when glue isn't adhesive.
Always loved that style of recoil on those mowers, something about how it looked just appealed to me, and the sound when you pulled it, reminded me of starting my mom's lawn boy 2 stroke mowers she used in her lawn care business
These were one of the engines I liked to work on. Great engines.
Love the vids, good job boys!
Nice mower - my dad had a 21 inch Whirlwind push mower of the same vintage with a side bagger. Our 21 inch model had a Briggs like the one in the video and was equipped with a dipstick also. We moved into a home with a half acre lawn and the mower sure got some hours on it cutting the grass. It was the first lawn mower I mowed with. I took it to small engine class in high school when it was roughly 14 years old. It was the first small engine I overhauled. The mower was used for another 5 - 6 years until my father replaced it. The mower lasted 20 plus years - the deck was still good when the engine was wore out.
I haven't seen one of those Whirlwinds in nearly 30 years. The sight of that thing sure brought back some memories.
Love from England taryl great video thanks.
Those 3and half horse power lawn mowers were pretty hardy. I mowed a bunch of fields with my 3.5 hp mowers and they came back for more!
Well done Taryl saved another from the scrap pile,started fine and sounded great well done to you all
love the black and white video insert!!!
Great Job Taryl.
Love the skits! Lol. So meta.
Brilliant video thank you 😍😀😀😀😀😀😀😁😁😁😁😄😄😄😄😄👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nice to have new video from Taryl very honest show when things goes south he just sorts it out cheers from a Brit who does not have the accent cheers all
Your video will ensure that a whole new generation will be opening repair shops for the future!! Great video!! Thank you !!✌️😊
Awesome video Taryl 👍👍🍿👀
I used one as a kid that I inherited from my grandfather. I hated that mower. Lol. Got rid of it years ago. Now I kinda wish I had it back. Had some unusual features. Oil bath carburator air cleaner. The exhaust went under the deck. Wind up starter that never worked right. A oil reservoir. That was supposed to keep you from measuring the oil with a dipstick. Had a push button. And for the 1960s had a wash out port for a hose to clean out the grass.
Hi, love you guys please keep up the good work, love your videos. Thank you
You know, I am not personally a big fan of the "theatrics" in these videos (although in this one it was minimal), but your level of knowledge and the video production is amazing! I can tell just how well you really know your stuff, so this is what keeps me coming back for more! Great job! Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Sir!
Thank you for the video.
Yep, this exact mower also came with a Tecumseh LAV30 engine with an under deck muffler, I had one for many years. Mine was from 1969 and had a vertical pull starter but the ones from 1967 and earlier had crank-up impulse starters. Once it was all cranked up you would release the starter by setting the throttle control to the choke position. That mower you have was also available with a green deck and a blue shroud, they called it a Toro Fiesta mower.
Yeah ! As a kid, we had one of those wind-up starter crank thing. It quite scared me when the release knob wasn't turned all the way out.
Yikes that sounds dangerous. Those magnesium decks seem to add a lot of years to the mower. I have an old mower in my garage that I'm about to get started on fixing. It has a 2-stroke Suzuki engine and a magnesium deck. Pretty cool!
@@thedillestpickle Hang on to that Suzuki engine, they are hard to come by. I am working on finding an aftermarket carburetor or needle/seat valve for one of those as they are obsolete.
@@campbellpaul No luck so far? I just spend an hour poking around and the carb bowl is completely missing along with the rubber seal for the bowl, and the nut. Big ding on the blade, so I'm thinking something a rock was struck, and its quite stiff to turn the engine over. This might be quite an overhaul.
@@thedillestpickle If you remove the three machine screws securing the starter cup you can see if the tiny key on the crank was sheared. I own one with a working carburetor and another with a leaking carburetor. I'm squeamish to remove the carburetor studs (by locking two nuts together) as they are torqued really tight.
Man taryl has all kinds of new old stock wow ......pure gold
I love the new turd polishing series
Enjoyed Taryl threatening the camera man. Another Great Video Thankyou
Good job Taryl.
I have a Toro 21 (1975 model) My dad bought it new. Still runs and I used it to trim after mowing tonight. My Toro internally is just like the one in the video. Now I know a little more about points and condensers! Thanks Taryl
These may have been underpowered, but they are light as a feather 🪶. Great trim mowers.
"Underpowered" is a relative term. I had a 3 horse that would eat through anything. It was only an 18 inch blade. Didn't need a big engine to do the job. Sure the swath was smaller, but because you could move faster, it took less time to cut the grass. The smaller mower was also lighter and less work to push.
I worked on tons of this style Toro Briggs as “Ditchmasters” , when you wanted to mow an area that had a sloping drop this was a nice light mower to use as a ruff cut. Took me a while to figure out the “preload” on the diaphragm but it was a pretty good engine/work horse for a non manicured yard.
Great video!!FINALY GET TO SEE MR CAMERA MAN.😂
Love the cameraman he has steady hands and tell him I said keep up the good work.
I want that Toro Taryl! Great video. Thank you
Watching you mow snow brought an old memory. I was at a rummage sale a lo-ong time ago and saw a blade for a lawn mower for sale. It was in the box with instructions etc. It was promoted as a blade that you could mount on your push mower to throw snow. I don't think it would work here in northern Wisconsin :-).
I was 7 years old in 1973 and with my Dad when he bought one of these at the Toro dealer. It was light but underpowered, especially in tall grass. Ran great tho up until about 1988 when I accidentally hit a steel pipe, property marker with it. Broke the crank. Cool to see these still up and running today. Gotta love it!
Probably just sheared the flywheel key
Great video thanks Taryl. I found out from another youtuber how to bring that old chrome back around to use WD-40 and aluminum foil. Spray it down and scrub it with aluminum foil.
The toro 'claim to fame' was their mowdecks. The cast aluminum vacuuming was FAR superior to contemporary stamped steel decks. (I still think OMC had them beat with their Lawnboy engines)
The "windtunnel" aluminum deck was great.... Had Snapper beat 2 to 1 back in the day
I was just thinking how good the deck looked. Was just working on mower with deck all rusted out. Most mowers now are just disposable.
This is the best way to learn something, you can learn procedures from service manuals but it’s those little tricks or tips someone with experience can give you
Man I can hear that spark!
I like what you guys do keep sending me notifications
I got some of those vintage cable clamps from you for my 81 White Outdoor products track drive snow blower I recently restored....works great and looks great....thank you.
You know Taryl you just ruined that motor hitting that shaft with that hammer!!!!!!!!!! Lol
Yea,I cringe too seeing that done
Needs to use a brass hammer for that. Won't risk damaging the crank that way.
@@oncewaslost1982 Taryl complains about the people that make the statement that he ruins motors by hammering on the shaft. I just have to say something. Lol
Them cast metal decks were awesome.
Had one almost like that when I was a kid. Best lawn mower I ever had.
That recoil sounds exactly like a lawn chief push mower i estimate was purchased in 71 and never stopped mowing until 2005 when a riding mower replaced it.
Very nice repair! I remember when those were the current model Briggs engine. Still have one! I laughed a lot at your mowing snow!
That hv350 is some great stuff,thanks !
yeah that hv-350 is the stuff! It looks expensive to begin with but I've more than made the money back by what I've fixed with it.
I like that little red rig in the background
Great show I love all the tips Palomino time
Great video. Entertaining and a wealth of knowledge. How about a vid with Taryl and his other brother Taryl ha.
It’s a keeper!
Yes he is very much honest i have been a mechanic and shop owner and i can tell he is a down to earth nice guy but make no mistake he's not going to let anyone run over him and he will help u out as much as possible
Love it I have and use a 1993 Toro 22040 pro line with a 2cycle Suzuki 5 horse (underrated) runs perfect I have had to take the carb a traitor apart it’s my favorite
What a scream! And edumacation. Thanks for the look.
In my 5 years of being a grass rat I have not the privilege of messing with any small engines with points. Thanks to you Taryl I'll know haw to fix em when I do. I remember back in the day when I had cars with points. I hated chevy's because they were on the backside of the motor. Thanks Taryl
Most people just deleat them with the electronic magneto , magnetron on the old Briggs flatheads.
Awesome, video
I love tbe shout of success 😀😄
