    We check out a John Deere Z335E zero turn mower with a Briggs and Stratton V twin 20HP engine that bogs down under a load and has no power.
    Once we pull it onto the table we start getting popping coming from the left side and do a dull diagnosis and repair on the pushrod/valve issue that it has.
    We go through some of the common troubleshooting and diagnostic methods to take you through an easy repair

      Yeah it wasn't nearly that bad here because we have been in a drought for over a month no humidity but we would have definitely went home! Finally starting to get back to where we don't have to put in 14 hours a day to stay caught up so we are not complaining but would love just a little bit of rain!! You can keep the heat!

    I’ve got the same unit. 46 hours on it, and it starts bogging/losing power after about 15-20 minutes. Fuel supply issue like you said at the beginning of this video?

    • @IndRepair
      @IndRepair  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Definitely where I would start, pretty easy to diagnose if you put a clear fuel filter in line between the pump and carburetor to see if it is running out of fuel

      Had 357 hours on it. Who knows what they did before! Didn't even bother to seal it back up or worry about leaking. Based on the lack of oil leaking in the area I think someone was just into it

    Z915e. 25hp kohler. Runs perfect at idle but when you push the arms forward it loses power. Any ideas?

    • @IndRepair
      @IndRepair  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Check each cylinder independently to make sure each is firing. Blown head gasket, carburetor gummed up, one cylinder not firing, bad fuel, etc. The list really goes on but you have to start somewhere and eliminate each one by one. If each cylinder is firing, the fuel is fresh and it does not run better with the choke applied slightly I would want to do a leakdown or compression test to find where the issue is. If it runs better with a little choke check carburetor, fuel supply and possible air leak

      Valve spacing you are speaking of correct? If so, the repair manual show .005" and separate spec charts say .004" to .006"

    @mtnpwr 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Why didn’t you just remove the rear panel to give yourself better access to the cylinder head/rocker arms? Seems harder to work around it than just simply removing the panel.

    • @IndRepair
      @IndRepair  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It wasn't in the way for me when I did this. I work in tight spaces like these and much tighter daily. If it helps you to see what it going on or makes it easier for you by all means take off the panel and get better access. Thanks for watching!
