Important!!. Follow the evaluation steps carefully. I skipped the check for the BUMP on the intake valve (as was explained very well in the video). The mower was doing exactly what is typical of the "broken compression release". Locking up on trying to start.... I ordered a new cam and disassembled the mower. To my surprise....cam was good. Spent the weekend with the project. Cleaned everything, put it back together, adjusted the valves and it runs great....I'm pretty sure that the intake valve was out of adjustment enough that the compression release wasn't opening the intake valve properly while trying to start. At least I now have a clean mower that is running great. The video was excellent, and helped with disassembly and reassembly. I hope this may someone like me that often jumps to conclusions during the diagnosis.
I had a mower that was very low on power, I checked the valve adjustment, was shocked it had over 50 thousand clearance on both valves. I adjusted the valves, it ran better than it had in years, unfortunately it started blowing oil out all over the place. Took the engine apart the top compression ring broke in 3 places. I replaced the engine, a Briggs 12.5 horsepower with a Kohler V twin 25 horsepower. Runs great now
So I just pulled mine apart because it didn’t have the bump but cam shaft compression release still looks in tack. Came shaft wasn’t lined up with the dot either. Well I got a new one on order so we shall see! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
I like the way you talk.. Also I appreciate your video. This is really really good info. You seem like the kinda person that would be cool as hell to just have a beer with and listen to some old stories.
I am helping out an elderly gentleman with a yt3000 craftsman with a 21hp platinum engine. The mower does not want to spin. Gets to compression stroke and stops. I took off the valve cover and removed spark plug. Turned mower by hand. Moves freely. Valves move up and down. I did not notice the little bump in the intake valve. Looks like a bad camshaft. Your video was excellent. Now I can tell the gentleman what the problem is and he can decide if he wants the engine fixed. Thanks for great video. If I need to tear into the engine, your video will be used as reference. I hope the internals are not to bad. Thanks a bunch!
1. I like the rain. 2. I have that same oil can, from my grandfather. Love it. 3. Thanks for helping me with the knowledge. You saved me hundreds while I was only working part time.
Outstanding job! 17.5 B&S is headed to the shop for this repair. Thank you. Update 01/10/2023 About 6 hrs from start to finish. New B&S parts. all went well thanks to your help. I just can't tell you how much I appreciate the time you spent making this video. Don't think this engine ever ran this well. You're the best Raley!!
BIG THANK YOU! With your great videos, I was able to replace my camshaft. Something I’ve never done before. Running like New!Appreciate you sharing your valuable knowledge.
I want to say thank you for the video you done an awesome job on it and you go to the head of the class so I have to do that very same thing that you just done for me just want to say thank you keep up the good work may god richly bless you Your friend up in Canada
Thank you friend for this awesome video...After replacing the battery and starter I came across this video and pulled my motor out..That decompression lever had sheared off.Ordered all the parts and waiting on them to reassemble my motor...You saved my ass!
Talk about designed to fail. Everything is cheap on these mowers except the price. Just bought a good looking used one. All the symptoms present. Broke all my rules of "Want to see it crank, Want to see it go forward and back." I can take care of everything else. I've watched a few vids on this subject. Thank you for being a real mechanic. You set valve clearance the same way I've done it for years. This video is a great help. Thanks
I would like to ask a question on something I'm not clear about. I have a twin cylinder. Checked it today and no blip on the intake valve. Set the lash to .004 and started seeing the valve blip open. Set the lash the same on the other head but no blip. My question is, Does it only decompress on 1 cylinder? Thanks again.
Thanks! I got my John Deere d110 back up and running thanks to this video and your other video that shows how to upgrade from the nikki carb to the walboro. Really appreciate the detailed explanations and my wife and I also found the videos entertaining. Only feedback I have is when reinstalling the throttle cable I didn’t put it all the way back and was running on the lowest throttle so it was really struggling when I turned the pto lever. Took me a bit to figure out but it’s running great now!
Thank you so much for the video. I knew my mower wouldn’t start because of too much compression. But I had no idea how to fix it. Thanks for saving me several thousand dollars on a new mower.
Awesome vid. Most vids are not as detailed. I for one don't mind the "real time", it shows everything and I'm more than happy to watch even if it takes an hour. Good work!
Thanks man, great video. I've never taken apart a mower engine so your video was my guide. I didn't see the "bump" so I decided to tear into it and sure enough, the compression release thingy had a broken stud and separated from the camshaft. It really is an easy job if you take your time, keep tools and parts clean and organized, and make sure you get OEM parts. Don't get the cheap stuff or you will be doing this job again. The motor is not that heavy and comes out pretty easy so don't be intimidated by this job. Thanks again!
Thank you for showing us that, it was very thorough and very fun to watch. I liked how you precaution dust in certain parts of it to take your time not to roll that seal and to take your time. Thank you for spending the time to show us this you're awesome dude
First visit I thoroughly enjoyed your video. Down-to-earth, although not required. The part that I enjoyed the most was how you went over what you were about to do ahead of time. You made it look easy with your years of experience. Definitely a good experience for the viewer. All my questions were answered. Thank you very much for sharing. 🙂
Excellent, thank you for the extreame detail. From the dots on the parts for alignment, to oil, everything.... I need videos like this, I am very dumb to this type of work. GREAT video. This is my first time taking a motor apart and needed your knowledge. Last thanks for the humor and being an everyday person. Thanks!
Sir. Professor "T-Bone". You are impressive. Complete detailed instructions. No wasted time. Clear and concise presentation. Capturing attention from the start. I am building my knowledge off of your years of experience. Thankyou Sir.
I love the way you edited this video just leaving the critical informational details so that viewers can learn the process. Now I'm going to view your other videos as I see you are a "master" small engine mechanic.
Great Video! Made me laugh a few times. You know your stuff. You’ve been at it a while, I can tell and I appreciate you making this. Keep up the good work brother. You’re a good man.
Thank you sir! Great video instructions, it helped me do this same job on my B&S 33R877-0009-G1 engine. Being my first time digging into an engine for a job like this, the video helped a ton. A few general notes to help others: -torque spec for the 10 crankcase screws was 18 ft-lbs for my particular model -take note (or mark) of the position of your throttle cable before you disconnect it from the clamp, it will help you when re-assembling when the job is done -the spring that was mentioned in the video when popping out the oil seal is integral with the oil seal, not a separate component. That confused me at first but made sense when I popped the old one out. Your new oil seal will have a spring assembled into it so you don’t need to re-use that piece. -all-in, job cost $130 in parts (new camshaft, crankcase gasket, and oil seal) and about 6 hrs (close to 2 hrs spent cleaning off the old gasket and cleaning/washing down the engine with brake cleaner)
I'm thinking my camshaft is bad my motor kick's back , your video is a great help on my repairs. Got to get my grandsons to fix it lm to old to do it myself thanks.....
Thank you for your compression release mechanism video. Just what I needed. Mine wasn't broken, but the valves were adjusted to about 8 thousands. Enough to keep the compression release from working. I set the valves to lose 4 exhausts and snug 4 intake, and the engine starts up perfectly. I bought the tractor from the scrap yard, so I didn't know it's history except it was in very good condition. The stuff people throw away nowadays. Thanks again!
This is a great video which made replacing the cam easy and stress free. The best part for me was having my youngest son helping so he can learn how to do things like this when he is on his own.
You are literally a god send for making this video i dont know much about small engines and you just so happened to make a video about my exact engine and the issue its having tha k so much for going into detail and showing the process and fine details you are amazing 😊😊
I’ve learned my lesson about Briggs & Stratton engines and their compression relief cam. My Husqvarna riding mower has not been seen for two months. It has been in the shop(s) for that long due to living on DelMarVa using small engine repair folks
On point.... I just got me a set of inverted torx socket need to change rear wheel bearing assembly on my car....Got part need to get the nerve,, I have take small steps these days been on the mend....
Your very welcome mr. Raley. That was a great video on the cam replacement and how to diag that problem. Nice that Stella stopped by to do a little welding for you! Lol.👍🇺🇸😎Roger
Thank you so much for an outstanding video. I replaced the starter and battery on my 14.5 intek, only to find out it's doing the same exact thing...no crank. Almost like it's hydro locked. I had no idea these engines have a compression release on the camshaft or how to fix it. Your video shows me how to fix the problem hands down. Thank you sir!
Coming from a small engine mechanic , this is one of the most detailed , & informative videos I've ever seen !! You work exactly like I do ... slow , precise , & clean to do it RIGHT !! Huge Thumbs-Up !! 😉👍🏻
That looks like the one I just did for my 92 year mother-in-law . Her compression release was in 6 pieces. That is the only thing that goes wrong with these engine. (If you keep them serviced) great video. I used assembly lube.
I already replaced one starter before I saw this video & began to read about cam decompression do-hickeys. So my problem now is getting the doggone engine cowling back on correctly along with the heat shield that goes underneath it. ANYBODY GOT ANY IDEAS OR RECOMMENDATIONS ( OR VIDEOS EVEN) ON GETTING ALL THOSE COVERS & SUCH BACK IN PLACE ??
Love the 13:38 "installation tool" holder.....sliced sock😂..way to be resourceful....great video...I'm undertaking the project, and I do have one of those "installation tools"....Thanks for the excellent video to help me with my first attempt at a small engine...
Good job man !!! It’s my first time with small engines !! I be learned a lot with you style!!! I like it !!! Simple but to the point !! Thanks for your time!!!
Awesome video, from the video angles to the easy to understand instructions. I kind of knew what I was doing, but now I'm sure. Thank you Sir, this was very useful video and I like it best of all the one that showed how to replace a camshaft.
I have a generator that takes about 35 pulls for it to start. I've noticed it gets easy to pull just before it starts. I'm guessing it's the compression release's spring has broken and after 30 pulls it swings back in place and lifts the exhaust valve to release the pressure and then the generator starts. It runs great once started. So that means the compression release is still there unlike the engine you're showing. Thanks for posting this!
Thank you for this video. I am now in the process of replacing the cam due to a compression release failure, I found that the main drive pulley bolt was so tight it would not even loosen with an air impact wrench so I heated the bolt using a torch (with wife close by with a fire extinguisher), and the bolt came loose immediately . Pass this along if you like.
One of the best tutorial videos, thank you... for those not as sharp as you, what's the torque settings for putting the lower case back on please? Thanks again
Thank you. Dang if I know what the correct torque is. Lol Sorry been doing this kind of work over 40 years and have a feel for it. You can probably look up the correct spec on Manuals Lib. They have a great website.
Thank you. You need to go to Parts Tree and look up the correct camshaft and seal for your engine. Use the Model and Type imprinted on your valve cover to get the correct one
Great video. Informative and entertaining. Will be tackling a cam replacement on a 17.5 hp B & S Intek in the near future. Now I'm more than confident I can do it. Thanks a million.

Did the exact same thing and replaced everything anyway

Very good video explaining the process Tell that customer he needs to care for his equipment better. There's no excuse for a mower to be that abused!
And insulting to a great mechanic to not have the courtesy to clean the machine...how about charging a $500 cleaning fee?
Very good video good information you've done this extra a few times it tells.Thanks .

Great demonstration really like your videos
Bottom seal rolling is prevented by installing it after the sump pan is installed. Nice video.

Thank you so much, I really appreciate you sending those tools. We had fun with her here.
Great Explanation, Thanks buddy.
Good job
Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for an outstanding video. I replaced the starter and battery on my 14.5 intek, only to find out it's doing the same exact thing...no crank. Almost like it's hydro locked. I had no idea these engines have a compression release on the camshaft or how to fix it. Your video shows me how to fix the problem hands down. Thank you sir!

Haha!! I was gonna say exactly the same thing about how he and I do things the same way😀
Your a good instructor Raley.
Excellent video!! Thanks😊
That looks like the one I just did for my 92 year mother-in-law . Her compression release was in 6 pieces. That is the only thing that goes wrong with these engine. (If you keep them serviced) great video. I used assembly lube.
Awesome thanks for watching my friend
I have a question, what would cause the exhaust rocker arm to break? I do enjoy your very informative videos.
Possible valve guide moved or stuck valve.
Thanks for the feedback the value guide had moved up and rocker couldn't go down
Awesome video!! Thank you so much !!
Right to the point and accurate. Wish I would have found this before putting a new starter in thinking that was the problem.
I already replaced one starter before I saw this video & began to read about cam decompression do-hickeys.
So my problem now is getting the doggone engine cowling back on correctly along with the heat shield that goes underneath it.

Wonder if you could make a little tapered thingamajig to help persuade that seal to behave. 😮😅 21:10
Great job 👏

The seal at 13:45 that goes into the bottom. Do you happen to remember the part number.

Amazing how clean you got it. Do you have any videos showing your cleaning process?
Thank you. No video, bit very simple. Yes, we have a vat,although not necessary. We just use Kerosene in our vat and a brush. That's it. Too Easy
I Admire the pride you take and appreciate your time and willingness to share your knowledge with others.
Extremely informative. Is it the same exact process on a B&S power built 17.5 that’s on my Troy built pony?
Thank you. Yes they are all pretty much the same. Do what I did and you should be fine.
Thank you for this video. I am now in the process of replacing the cam due to a compression release failure, I found that the main drive pulley bolt was so tight it would not even loosen with an air impact wrench so I heated the bolt using a torch (with wife close by with a fire extinguisher), and the bolt came loose immediately . Pass this along if you like.

Cool. I would have jet washed that thing before working on it.
T-Bone, Do you have part #s for the camshaft and crankcase seal?
Great video btw!
Thank you. You need to go to Parts Tree and look up the correct camshaft and seal for your engine. Use the Model and Type imprinted on your valve cover to get the correct one
Great video. Informative and entertaining. Will be tackling a cam replacement on a 17.5 hp B & S Intek in the near future. Now I'm more than confident I can do it. Thanks a million.

Sorry I don't, but it's basically the same procedure.
