Thanks again YardBrah! My mower starts halfway through the first pull, runs better than before (hope it's not my imagination). Great help your video. I have the identical mower.
Love it 😊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Oh my gosh Robert thank you so much for the Super Thanks my friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Mine starts with starting fluid. Then it runs fine. Will NOT start unless I ETHER it. Just bought it used yesterday. Started with one pull. Got it home. Tryed starting it. Notice I said “ tried”. Wouldn’t start. Thought I may have flooded it. Nope still would not start!! Sprayed it. It started and ran. But without the filter on. Started it sounds good. But having to spray it before I start it will be crazy. The guy offered to give me another one just like it. Hopefully it doesn’t have the same problem. Grrr. I even listened to what the guy told me about the gas. He said use NON Ethanol gas. It shouldn’t have to be primed with ether every time i use it. Lol
I’m a 68 year old single woman . I just bought this mower from Amazon with a $70.00 coupon . Thank you for doing this . It helped me so much .
Aye thank you for tuning in! It’s a nice little mower for sure!!! 😊🤙🏾🔥🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I have a 30ish year old version of that mower, still use it.
I see it has many different labels and names and various colors but it’s the same mower 😂😂😂🤙🏾
@@YardBrah yea tons out there, just searching for my model number will bring up like 6 mowers LOL...
Dude, you just saved me money. Yours is the only video I've seen that says to pull that jet and unclog it.... which was exactly what my problem was. Cheers for that.
Aye Glad it worked!!! Thanks for tuning in! 😊👊🏾🔥🤙🏾🙏🏾
Thank you so much for posting this and even saying what you used for everything! I’m a single female homeowner in my 30s and my dad lives in another state. I only had to call him once about the clamps. Otherwise I figured everything out and my lawnmower is working again and my yard looks good again! This is the exact model I have which helped so much. Thank you for posting!
Thank you a million times!!! I have this mower and the last time I tried to use it it started perfect but died after 5-10 seconds. I followed your video, broke everything down and cleaned it. But it was the oil, it looked just like your video. Changing the oil never crossed my mind. But I drained it and put in new oil and it runs better now than new. THANK YOU so much!
I love it! Thank you so much for tuning in! Glad it worked out! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾👊🏾
This literally worked EXACTLY like shown in video. Props to you, my lawn mower is back alive after 2 years. Thank you kindly 🎉
Aye that’s awesome!!! Glad it fired up for you my friend! Thanks for watching! 😊🔥🤙🏾🙏🏾
Just wanted to thank you for sharing this knowledge!!! Because of this video, I not only got my lawnmower running beautifully, but I was also able to fix my power washer as well!!! Both are Briggs and Stratton brand and are built almost identically!!! Thank you a million times for sharing!!! 💪🏾💯
That makes me happy!!!! Thank you for tuning in! Have a great lawn season! 😊🔥🙏🏾🤙🏾
AHHHH! I just fixed a free lawnmower all by myself?! Thank you for this super helpful video. I am the alpha dad of my neighborhood now 😂
😂😂😂🤙🏾 doesn’t it feel good! I’m glad you tuned in! 😊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
Thanks, this was my problem. I had my mower running in less than 15 minutes. This is way better than shelling out for a new carb, someone online said these things weren't worth messing with. I'm glad you showed me otherwise.
Oh I am so happy! 😁 thanks for tuning in!!! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
my new hero, I fidfle with a mower I had in storage. Couldn't get it to run so I found you and 30 minutes later on the first pull just like you. Thank you and now off to work. Be safe Brah
Not only does he produce great videos and now he's a small engine repairman what else can he do I'm impressed it started on the first pull
Oh yeah!!! 😂 jack of all trades… master of ALL! 💪🏾🤣😂 yeah my face when it started on the first pull says it all 😂🙏🏾🤙🏾
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! My Craftsman self-propelled walk-behind mower crapped out in the middle of doing the yard. No warning, just died. Mower was barely a year old and the 2 year "warranty" would not cover what they said was a carburetor issue (normal "wear and tear" they said was not covered. On a less than 1 year old machine?!?!?!). Shop wanted minimum of $150 to fix (called multiple places and they all said the same). Long story even longer, I watched your video and thought "Hmmm, even I could try that. Got nothing to lose". About 1 hour later I am up and running and my mower is slicing through my (9 inch long and overgrown) lawn like a BEAST! I can't thank you enough for creating a THOROUGH and SIMPLE video for a mechanical moron like myself. I owe you several beers if our paths ever cross. Thank you again, you are a lifesaver! ~Adam~
Oh man this is an awesome story! I super excited it worked for you!!! Thanks for the support my friend enjoy the season!!! 😊🤙🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Dude. You seriously crack me up. I could just watch your videos all day. Great voice along with that sense of humor.
😊 thank you so much! You’re the best 😊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
Shout out to you! Your tutorial was great! I know absolutely nothing about engines and now my “no starting cause I left gas in all winter”mower is running smoother than ever! Thank you!
oh man that makes me so happy!!!! Glad to hear ☺🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾🙌🏾
Worked great! That mower is $250 at Wal-Mart. Thanks! You rule!
Aye! Glad it worked!!! 😊🔥👊🏾🤙🏾
Literally just fixed my mower after watching your video! Thank you so much!!!!
Yes!!! That makes me so happy good job! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Just fixed my very similar low-end Bolens mower with a Briggs and Stratton.
Almost the same setup.
Everything worked right down to the little pop when I pushed a guitar string through the carburetor jet, with a little blob of orange goo coming out. (Only difference is it wasn’t the top hole where I got the pop, it was the center tube.)
I wasn’t even really that organized about it, and it took me about an hour.
Just mowed my lawn.
Only thing different is I didn’t take the float out. (Didn’t see a need to.)
And I didn’t pull out the oil because it’s not that old and I haven’t used the mower that much, just let it sit too long with gas in it.
Thanks for the video.
Aye nice!!!! Guitar string brilliant!!!! Love when that pop happens 😂😂😂👊🏾 thanks for tuning in my friend really appreciate you! 😊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
Its a great feeling when you fix something yourself . 🤙👍
Oh man it's the best! Before and Afters are an obsession of mine lol 😂🤙🏾
Just followed your instructions and now working . Thank you.
Oh that makes me happy! I’m glad it works! Thank you for supporting the channel! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great video on the 300e Carb! Hey, took canned air and blew those little puppies right out, now it's a one pull start. Thanks!
Aye!!! Def gonna grab some compressed air for next round thank you for the tip! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wow YardBrah, gratitude! Your video enabled me to fix my lawnmower following every step you described. Your instructional style is awesome, patient with your student (we the viewer), nice flow to the fix, and with a sense of humor! I will follow your channel!
Aye I’m happy it worked!!! Thank you so much for the compliments!!! And thank you for the support 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🙌🏾
I have a 2014 MTD 300e. The cheapest one at Home Depot. It is left outside all year around. This Spring is the first year it didn't start due to the carb jet assy. Easy fix and will probably go another several years before it happens again. Just be sure and not use low octane fuel at the pump. Actually the rubber o-ring on the carb will go out and suck in air before the carb will actually fail completely.
Nice! Yes it is a fun little mower I’m enjoying it a ton actually! It’s my backyard mower I switch from the mtd and the Troy bilt tb110 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🙌🏾
Thanks YardBrah! My mower is now like new! My oil was like yours, pure sludge! The carb was totally clogged too. Great instructions and video!!!!!!!
Aye nice! Yeah it’s so rewarding after you maintain an older mower! 😊🤙🏾🔥🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Terrific video I love your casual close-up approach !! God bless the Internet I had the same problem you had hopefully this will fix it. Thank you very kindly for the demonstration. Local repair shop wants 80 bucks to do this
oh yeah my friend you can do it yourself and have it back to normal in a couple hours 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥 thanks for tuning in! 😊🤙🏾
@@YardBrah you’re laughing is very confidence inspiring it makes you seem like one of us😉
@@allans7281 😂 we all put our pants on the same way brotha. we jump into both legs at the same time 😂😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
@@YardBrah haha mechanical things can intimidate some.
I was ready to throw mine out but thanks so much I got it up and running again
Aye nice!!!! Glad you got it fixed!!! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🙌🏾
Dude's humor is a great plus.
😂 thank you!!! Thanks for the support! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
Gonna try this tomorrow. Took it apart mine today but watched a video that did not at all look like my mower. This looks almost exactly like mine. Great video!!!L
Update: did this step by step. Didn't think it would work as everything seemed clean and OK. Lo and behold its working again!! Thank you man.
Just finished mowing my overgrown backyard. Thanks again!
Noice!!! My backyard is getting overgrown I haven’t cut it in 5 days 😂
I’m not to mechanical to say the least. Until… I found out my small engine mechanic went on vacation. You Tube never fails!
Thanks for this video ! Super well done with a great sense of humor 😀
Watched it twice. After an hour she started right up ! # big WIN !
Dude this worked. THANK YOU. You're a real one.
Aye I’m glad it helped!!! Thanks for tuning in! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾👊🏾
I have the exact mower with the same issue.old gas & oil.failure on my part.this helped a lot.never worked on a plastic carb before.
Thanks🤙🏻💯
Aye glad it worked!!! Def a fun little diy project that saves $140 ish dollars now a days! It used to be like $35-50 to get a mower carb cleaned 😩😂😂😂😊🤙🏾🔥🙏🏾
The syringe with tube is brilliant!
😂😂😂 we make due 😂🤙🏾
I got the same lawnmower and I also got it for free with the same issue and I used your video and did the same thing and it works now! Thank you!
this is exactly the one that I WAS SEARCHING FOR
My neighbor just went through this same issue. I told her not to leave gas with enthonal in it over the winter. Run it dry or use non enthonal gas to keep this from happening.
Yes good advise... not a lot of people actually store their mowers properly for winter causes a lot of frustration in spring 😂🤙🏾
Agreed!
Awesome video. I just picked up one exactly like it last night.
Thanks for the detailed solution.. my mower started but oil started spilling from smwhr near carburetor
Oh no you might have a worn gasket for sure check those! 😊🙏🏾🔥🤙🏾
Amazing video, im about to do this to mine that just wont start, this is the best video out there, wwill let you know how it goes, uk
Really good video. I cannot get my cover off took the two screws out of the back but it won't pull off thus is a good comprehensive video I think I can do this.
Thank you so much! Might have a couple more hidden screws on that cover. Thanks for watching! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥
Good video, love the attitude! Drian plug on ALL small mowers is under the deck fyi... usually a socket wrench extension fits right in. 3/8" square... Happy tinkering!
I’ll have to look next time but I don’t see any holes to drain… I would think that would be a hazard oil dripping into your lawn 😂😂😂😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
Awesome dude! I have that same mower and quit on me today. It's been one pull reliable for years until a tree fell on it and sat out in the weather under limbs all winter. Looks like an easy fix, thanks man!
Oh yeah it’s gonna start for sure after you fix it!!! Let me know how it goes! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
Thank you for the video 🎉🎉🎉
Followed the video and fixed the mower! Thanks Bud!
Aye yes! Glad it worked!!! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥
What a great video, thanks pal, you kept it entertaining , smashed it 👊
Thank you so much for tuning in and the support! 😊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
"listen to that neighbors! You've been watching me all evening 🤣🤣🤣"
Bruhhhh. Hahahah you're the man! Good job as always
😂😂😂 thank you my dude 🙏🏾🤙🏾😊
You saved me and my mower! Did the trick! Thanks!!
Thank you very much! you're best to teach me and now, I understand got it. I have YardMachines 20" 300e 125cc and I will clean it up clogged etc. Thumb up!
Amazing job. Very inspiring video. i was looking for a video like this for quite some time on how to diy service my lawn mower. thanks alot. I want to try it out as soon as i get home!
Aye it’s gonna work great! Good luck and have fun 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾👊🏾
I’m so glad I went EGO. Dealing with all that kinda sucked I’m happy to be electric with everything yard related
Oh man... not a fan of owning Gas but fun to tinker every once in a while! 😊
@@YardBrah gas runs longer then a electric lawn mower and no charge time to wait for
Right on bro... I bought a new carburetor , I haven't Installed it so I'm going to clean the old one first.
Doesn't turn on after doing both "clean the old one" and "put a new one".
Best video for this repair/fix! Didn’t know if I liked you though until I saw the sun and stars near your elbow! 🇵🇭 immediate like and sub for my fellow Filipino brudda lets goooo!
Aye!!! 🇵🇭 thank you so much my dude! Maraming Maraming Salamat Pare! 😊🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Driving the neighborhood looking at ugly yards! 🤣 Those Yeezy 500 👀
I mean am I wrong? 😂 it’s yeezy season!!! I can’t believe they are bringing back the OG 350 turtle doves this year 😩 can’t wait!!! 🙏🏾🤙🏾
Yes! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for tuning in! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾👊🏾
Great fix! Working on mine now. Wish me luck!
Aye good luck let me know how it went! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great video, cleaned the carb too
I use old guitar strings to clean out those jets. Work like a charm.
I have this exact mower. Currently cleaning the carb in hopes she runs again to flip for some $.
It worked! Thank you so much brother!
Aye that’s awesome I’m happy!!! Thanks for tuning in my friend! 😊👊🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥
Aloha Friday brother 🤙🌞👍😎✌️🌈☀️
good going with the content that you have been posting
Thank you! This fixed my issue, great video!!!
Yes I’m happy! Thanks for tuning in! 😊🤙🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾
Top notch step by step! New sub👍
Thank you very much for tuning in! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
Thanks for the advice. It worked like a charm!
Aye! That’s awesome makes me happy it worked for you! 😊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾🙌🏾
Worked like a charm!
Oh that is good to hear I am so happy!!! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🔥
Bro! THANK YOU! Gonna get new life out of my mower!!!
Aye!!! That makes me so happy 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@YardBrahThought you were kidding about the numb lips…turns out that was 💯.😂. I started using compressed air (like the stuff for keyboards) after a minute or two! Thanks again, dude!
I got my mower working after following your advice, thanks
I'm glad it worked! Thank you so much for watching and the support 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
Thanks man I think this video is the key for start my I buy it for 15 box 😂😂😂
😂😂😂 hope it starts!!! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🙌🏾
dude you are awesome.great vid. ty
Thank you! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
Informative video - but most of the time your hands were in the way which also created focusing issues. Just some constructive criticism, don’t lose sleep over it. A thumbs up and appreciate the help! 👍🏻
Yeah I stopped using the autofocus feature in the new videos 😂 I was told it was revolutionary but it’s like every other focusing system whatever is closer to the camera will focus 😂 I manually focus now 😊 thanks for tuning in!!! 😊🤙🏾🔥🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
GREAT video! My wife's mower suffers from the same malady. Hopefully, I have cleaned that carb for the last time. I would advise all viewers to save yourselves ongoing misery by buying non-ethanol fuel. Yeah, I know, it's a bit pricey. I'll happily pay the extra to not have to tear down the crappily designed carb several times each mowing season...At the end of the mowing season, run those fuel tanks DRY!
Based on the fact you have a 60cc syringe and what appears to be a specimen cup, I'm going to venture a guess that you work in the medical field?..
nonetheless, great vid! Thank you
Thank you so much! Yes def the non-ethanol will help thanks for the tip and no go on the medical field 😂😂😂😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
Hey bro...my neighbor in DC the area is moving this month...come on and move in please!! We need u!!Need a lumpia bro on my street...lol
Nice job Brah ! I think there's going to be lots of mowers on the side of the road this year, might do a fix and flip for some extra cash $$$
Yeah I have a feeling there’s gonna be a ton of people switching to electric! I’m gonna have to start flipping these guys I don’t have any more room for new mowers 😅😂🤙🏾🙏🏾
I really hate cleaning Briggs & Stratton carburetors on the newer models you have to take everything apart. Rather than simply unscrewing the bowl from the bottom. I usually use the wire rapper that comes on light bread. Burn the plastic off leaving just enough at the end to handle the wire. I also have pipe cleaners that you use to clean a settling torch with those are also good when you have to enlarge a jet because of motor is surging good video
Oh nice thanks for the tips... I havn't dove into a Briggs and Strat yet! I'm sure it's more complex than these smaller mowers! Thanks for tuning in! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥
@@YardBrah the engine you are working on is the newest Style Briggs & Stratton. Real pain in the butt having to remove so much stuff to clean the Jets in carburetor. The older Briggs engines you only had to remove the bowl without removing the entire carburetor. But still it was a great video
@@ORTEZW OH I see what your saying! I thought you meant the new briggs and stratton like the one on my california trimmer 😂 Yeah you know how it is... newer things are built to fail so parts department can make money 😂 😊🤙🏾
Loved your video. Where can I get parts like gaskets, etc. to fix my lawnmower. Also is fixing a weed wacker just as easy? My weed wacker is a Craftsman also and uses gasoline mixed with some oil. Doesn’t work now and it think it’s clogged. I’m afraid of attempting to fix it.
Oh yeah same type of deal for the weed wacker best to video it so you remember what parts go where just in case! Also I just went to eBay to get parts $15 for the whole carb kit including gaskets air filter new carb and spark plug here’s the other video 😊th-cam.com/video/AZU82EXFRA0/w-d-xo.html 🙏🏾🤙🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾
I got mine on sale for $99 about 3 years ago. It was a door buster at Home Depot
Oh my I would buy a new one right now for $99!!! Thanks awesome!!! 😊🙌🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
269 now due to inflation. Few years back it was 163 at Walmart.
Voice over was entertaining
Haha thanks for tuning in!!! Wow yeah that’s a major inflation increase 😂😅😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
Worked and entertained 👍
You’re the best thanks for tuning in!!! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥👊🏾
Bruh... Instant sub. Learned so easily. I'm going to have to get some tools now... but man I wish you taught other things as well....like math hahaha
💀💀💀 oh I’m pretty genius I’m with math algebra 4 the theory of Lie algebra was a crazy class 😂😂😂 thanks for the support my friend 😊👊🏾🤙🏾🙏🏾
Nice bmw love your 😊😊😊love your videos man😊😊😊
Thank you for the support my friend! 😊🔥🤙🏾👊🏾🙏🏾
That's awesome thanks man that helps a lot
Thanks for tuning in my dude! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾👊🏾
I found the exact same mower. It looks new, blade is sharp with no nicks but it won.t start.
Oh yeah do this and it’s game over!!! 😊🙌🏾🤙🏾🙏🏾
😂 I'm that neighbor
😂😂😂👊🏾🤙🏾
Bro you are funny! Thanks for the video!
Thank you for tuning in!!! 😊🙌🏾🤙🏾🙏🏾
Oil drain must be at the bottom of the machine, where the blades are! My grandma's old 51cm MTD has it.
No way! Actual car like oil drain? 😂😂😂😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
Good video. The focus drives me nuts but very informative
Yeah that was an old video auto focus was killing me 😂😂😂 🤙🏾
Some of your neighbors’ yards be looking crusty as hell man😂😂💀
you're telling me bro lol CRUSTYYYYYYYYYYY!
My dude 😂 ya jnow what im saying! Word good vid. My dude
😂😂😂🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 thanks brotha! 😊👊🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥
i have a mastercraft lawn mower and from the start it was hard to start and it was new ok, would you know what can be the issue Brah ?
I mean before you dive deep into the carb spark plug / spark plug gap / … if not then def needs carb adjustment and or clean 😊👊🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
@@YardBrah ok Thank You, Brah :0
You are a fucking king for this vid. Thanks dude!
I have the same mower. However mines starts for a few seconds then dies. Do I still follow the same procedure to fix my problem?
100% I guarantee you the jet is clogged... also check if sparkplug is good gapped correctly 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
do you have a link to those blades you used for fixing the mower, Brah ?
I’m not sure which blades you’re talking about my dude 😊🤙🏾
Honestly I’ve only changed the oil in mine once in 5 years and never replaced the plug or filter plus it sits outside uncovered through all the Illinois seasons😂. Today she wouldn’t turn on and I’m assuming this is the issue with mine too lol
I think I lost the needle valve while removing it. Either that or it wasn’t there. So it turned on but now it spills gas? Is that why?
You’re def missing something or your gas line is leaking? Hard to diagnose without seeing it in person. 😊🤙🏾
awesome...
Thank you!
Thank you 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾👊🏾
Definitely love it when you get good results from putting in the work but this is why I chose battery powered. Not as powerful as gas but still good enough for me. I do a lot of handy stuff but working on a gas mower isn't one of them. Definite benefit when you're done for the season but you may want to get that mow in on a nice day in November. Maybe I missed it but isn't there an oil plug to pull that'll drain the oil rather than using a syringe?
just an FYI, you have to screw in that dipstick to get the correct reading.
Great pace to this video.
Not a lot of closeup shots...but, your descriptions are pretty detailed verbally.
Now to see if I can fix it.
Thank you! Good luck and make sure you update me on the results I'm rooting for you! 😊🤙🏾🔥🙏🏾
Do these lawn mowers require gas and engine oil mixed together?
I tried a soap dispenser for the oil.
Noice! LOL 😂 ... goes to auto parts store with 8 oz "do you guys take oil" 😂🤙🏾
All that is Man!!!! 😂🤙🏼
