I am trying this. Love doing yard work anf maintenance. Just mot as savy with diagnostics. Have subbbed to the channel. This video is really good. Have pulled the catb and nothing seems wrong, but then again I dont know what tocreslly look for..... Tho, my mower sounds yo be doing exactly what this one was. Cant complain. No issues with motor whatsoever othar than this..... Will complete what you suggested and report back. Just waiting for delivery. But much better than waiting a month in the shop. FL here so will be back to mowing twice a week soon...
Great instruction coupled with humour and quality video editing. Not too much off topic waffle like other How to videos. Pull starting the air gun 😂😂 Love it all, Edu-tainment at it's best!!! ❤
I’ve got that same engine/mower bought to Lowes, have had 3 returned & delivered, wish I’d left the thing at Lowes! Everybody i know that has this mower has the exact same problem!! Not over filled with oil either and uses non ethanol gas! Thanks for the video!
I have a huskavarna with a 22 Brigg. It was smoking and spitting oil out of the exhaust. The oil was overfull so I changed but I crossed threaded the oil filter. I cranked it up and it blew all the oil out and quit. I was kinda thrown into a daze by all the smoke and didn't check to see if filter was leaking. Something that I always do. I work on diesel tractor so a farm. Any way when I fixed the filter put more oil she turns over but will not crank. I think I ruined this engine. I already bought another lawn mower just wondering do all think it's done. I see now the carburator was the problem. But I think I burned it when all the oil leaked out.
Great video, I just retired from the small engine business and spend my time watching small engine videos, go figure. I started in 1980 and still learn from different fellow mechanics like you. keep up the good work
That is awesome! Yes I also watch a ton of repair videos on things I already know how to do because we never stop learning and picking up new tips and tricks that help. Thanks for watching and commenting my friend.
I just started my own small engine business it's always great to learn new things from others. Hey Clint feel free to drop off all your tools, parts and extra small Engines off here in Michigan I could really use anything I could get. Lol so expensive to start
@Gator that is great. Thanks for watching our channel my friend. Take your time, no need to spend a fortune getting started. Get set up with Rotary, the best parts source. We use quite a few others now after years in the business. Generally Rotary will have your parts there next day or 2. I've never sold any tools, it takes time, been collecting tools since the 1970s. We wish you all the best in your new venture my friend.
very informative, i been doing some small engines for 20 yrs. gotten more into it last 5 or so yrs. like watching shops teach others not just fly thru it . your remind me of tarrel fixs all, he same very informative. great video yall both have
I really like your channel because you don`t waste a lot of time with useless information and do very fast work and for me and quite a large number of others that is what it takes to hold some ones attention. Keep em coming.
YOU ARE PRETTY GREAT TO WATCH. MY DAD ALWAYS TOLD ME TO NEVER WASTE A MOVE WHEN WORKING. WE WERE HOUSE FRAMERS BUT THAT RULE GOES FOR ALL AND YOU HAVE IT DOWN.
T-bone strikes again this is the second time this summer you have taught me how to properly diagnosis and fix a problem on my mower! Amazing comprehensive videos but you don’t piss around and say the things that help teach me great content keep up the good work
Great video. I got tired of waiting for the oil to drain so I upgraded to the oil vac and just suck it out the dipstick hose...and then change the filter.
I have been watching a lot of your videos, they are , informative, educational, and entertaining. I have done a few of the same things you do as well, I like to watch how others will do the same job. Most times I find a few short cuts, and sometimes I think I might be able to help others. Overall, I enjoy watching others. T bone, you do very good work. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and abilities with others. Even if someone is afraid to jump in the middle of a job that looks difficult , they can still learn and listen to a repair shop, and can get sn idea if that shop knows what to do, or should go some place else. That Sir is a great help as well. 😊
Great job T-Bone, man I can't see how some people let their engine & fuel tanks get that filthy under the hood to the point where you can't even see where a leak is occurring. I have owned a Craftsman YT 3000 made by Husqvarna since 2013 with 800 hours on the B&S 21HP Intek single engine and it still purs like a kitten as I've been truly blessed that it's never blown the head gasket, broken the camshaft compression release, or had a rocker arm stud back out which all were common Intek issues. Everything is still as clean as day one as it only takes a little wiping things down occasionally, using a leaf blower, or an air compressor to blow it off once in awhile, and it can only help to keep all that dirt and grime from ruining everything.
You are correct my friend. A little cleaning and checking over every time it is used goes a long way to making them last. Also keeping the filters and oil changed. Thanks for watching and commenting my friend.
Thank you for the video. Watched it intently several times , because I have the same problem with my cub cadet. Followed every step you did. My cub is running beautiful now. Thank you Thank you Thank you
Great instructional video. I always learn something. You have no wasted motion in your repair. Every movement is toward accomplishing your goal. Thankyou Sir.
i have 2 of these engines and just looking at all the plastics, etc, it is itimidating taking the carb out. Your video and recommendation to take pictures along the way is excellent. Thanks!
Great video. I own a Honda HT-R 3009 thats about 36 years old, still starts and runs good, however it smokes a lot but once it warms up it the smoking stops. Around my area almost all the small engine repair masters have retired.
Great video. Every movement you make is toward accomplishment of your desired goal. Your a true professional. I enjoy watching, increasing my knowledge. Great job. Thankyou.
brother thank you. I just fixed an auction mower by having to weld a darned deck bracket back on, remount the deck with the parts they left in a box, fired it up and went mowing and she started to smoke and really really smoked when I went into reverse. Figured a seal was bad or something. Stuff running out of the front of it. I even priced a motor just in case. The oil is down. But will go through this test first. The oil seems a little thin to me too, but we'll start here.
My '04 JD with 20hp Intek still runs great, but I did replace the carb about 5 yrs ago. Chinese copy was $30, BS was $90, thats a no-brainer for me. I've rebuilt the deck twice, put a fuel pump on it once, and otherwise just kept the oil and filters changed. It may last forever.
I really enjoy your down to earth explanation on how to repair lawn mower issues. If I could make a suggestion. Put more links to the equipment you use doing your repairs.
I have this same engine in my mower; about 10 years old now. It runs very well and is tough as nails! After seeing what it takes to clean the carburetor and make repairs, I won’t spending my time are monies making repairs! I will junk it and be done with it. I got my monies worth out of it. I will purchase a new one.
What errand can possibly be more important Mrs T! You can’t leave your man filming from more than 100yards away, 🤣🤣 He did an OK job but he ain’t no camera guy. Love the music in the video, always awesome. Baby came dancing in from the kitchen 🤣🤣. We are stealth camping tonight, you’re right brother. You did a great repair and a great video once again brother. WHAT A MESS! I commented too soon, who is cleaning that up, see what happens when you start doing stuff on your own!!! ☹️
I told Mrs T you would be having a fit because she wasn't filming, she cracked up when she read your comment. Glad we got Baby dancing Lol. Thanks as always my friend.
I've used tin foil to make a custom shaped drain channel under oil filters located in tight spots or to get around weird geometry. Easy to make in situ and dispose of when done.
Great upload and info as always T bone. Good thing this got caught before washing out the cylinder and causing serious damage. Hope all is well your way!
IF I had a shop like T-Bone's, I would never use Chinese Scamazon/Fleabay carbs. Either replace with OEM or rebuild with OEM parts. All the OEM carbs that customers said to junk, I would rebuild and toss on the next customer's engine. Saves a lot of time and effort. Hi sir your mower is fixed. Just as they drive back home and hit the easy chair. Keep a couple 2 barrels like this video and the 594593 Walbro for the single cylinder jobs on the shelf, ready to go.
That's great, yes they work very good. I made one and use it everyday. I also did a video of it which includes some failed attempts. Thanks for watching.
Sorry! Back again. I think I like the fact this was done at a time when it was warm and snow free! Also still get a kick that BCers are not the only oil tasters (well outside of us and thoughs weird Alberta oil people!).
Had same symptoms on a 16.5 opposed twin, however turn out to be bad diaphragm on fuel pump. 10 buck fix on a mower a fella gave me. Gonna change hydro fluid next.
Excellent ,I would replace the plastic oil drain with a 3/8NPT nipple 3"long and an elbow and a 3/8 " pipe plug.Oil changes so much easier then ,no spilled oil!
Now that was a great how to. If a man wasn't paying attention to his work? You would be getting a basket full of parts and a broken down machine. Nice one here.
I've got the same mower, but someone replaced the engine with a Briggs and Stratton 19.5 twin....apparently the factory engine is infamous for not working well, and the B&S is the go to replacement.
Thanks for that. It clearly wasn't smoking after the repair but I'm still not sure precisely what it was that fixed it. I presume it was oil burning because fuel could be smelled in the oil. However I don't know how this relates to working on the carburetor. I'd be grateful for an answer from anyone.
Excellent video... As a mechanic it's a tuff call to tear down a problematic machine .. diagnosis, suggest to a customer what is the best course to go about it...with a less than 50/50 chance of getting good quality parts, On Time.
Would have appreciated seeing how you cleaned up the mess. I have tried many methods but haven't found the best one yet. Good to watch someone who knows what he is doing!
Thank you very much. We use kitty litter for the concrete floor, works great and cheap. On the machine I use a spray bottle of purple power and rinse with garden hose sprayer. We thank you for watching and commenting my friend
Good info in this video. Why replace everything in the carb if the only problem is a bad needle? Just so you can charge the guy for it? I'd slap a new needle in it and send it on! Most mowers I get with this carb are leaking through.
Thank you.. Not so I can just charge the guy for it. I won't do them half way and risk a customer coming back with a different carburetor issue that I will have to do for free. Great comment my friend Thanks very much for watching and commenting.
Long story short I was given a "smoking" snapper riding mower with 500cc Briggs. The feet places aren't even scuffed. Guy had to much money and little time. Oil level, air filter, carb, Head gasket , any ideas , I haven't had a chance to look at it yet , but I feel it's got to be simple fix ✌️😎
I think it is more fun to rebuild the carb, and then have the needle not seat correctly, or a leaking o ring, and that will fill the crank case with gas again, so you can do a 2nd oil change. It is so much fun fixing small engines, that I want to maximize the time I get to spend goofing around. Well, I guess an aftermarket carb is quicker, and if you are working and trying to make money ... but who needs money anyway? Right?!!!

I have a hose that fits on the oil drain, it helps to make less of a mess. The bottle trick will help a lot on the filter. Great tips in this video!
Fixing to do this on a mower i aquired just like this one, thank you especially the gasket explaination!
Outstanding detailed presentation of disassembly - including bolt sizes !?!

thanks sir,i adjusted the air gap on magnetos too,so far havnt done the needle, but you taught me how to check it,for future

The ole taste the dipstick for 87 octane trick.... nicely done.
brother thank you. I just fixed an auction mower by having to weld a darned deck bracket back on, remount the deck with the parts they left in a box, fired it up and went mowing and she started to smoke and really really smoked when I went into reverse. Figured a seal was bad or something. Stuff running out of the front of it. I even priced a motor just in case. The oil is down. But will go through this test first. The oil seems a little thin to me too, but we'll start here.
its got to be fuel leaking. A buddy of mine says there is an overflow back behind there and the oil level is stable.

The carburetor was leaking fuel into crankcase making it over full. Over full crankcase = smoking. Leaking carburetor was what caused it.

Be sure to reconnect the tube from the crankcase breather and check it for splits. Straight shot for dirt into cylinders.

what is the name of the tool you use to check the carb. for leaking
It's a Mity Vac MV8500
Great job I learned a lot thinks
Long story short I was given a "smoking" snapper riding mower with 500cc Briggs. The feet places aren't even scuffed. Guy had to much money and little time. Oil level, air filter, carb, Head gasket , any ideas , I haven't had a chance to look at it yet , but I feel it's got to be simple fix ✌️😎
I think it is more fun to rebuild the carb, and then have the needle not seat correctly, or a leaking o ring, and that will fill the crank case with gas again, so you can do a 2nd oil change. It is so much fun fixing small engines, that I want to maximize the time I get to spend goofing around. Well, I guess an aftermarket carb is quicker, and if you are working and trying to make money ... but who needs money anyway? Right?!!!
