Thanks so much! I followed your detailed instructions, put fresh gas and she ran like a dream yesterday! Saved me $60 that I usually spend taking it to the small engine repair guy in town!
I've seen many videos on this carb, but you are the first one that explained the drain plug on bottom of it. Thank you , not draining the gas out of it has made every spring a pain. Lesson learned , hopefully next year I won't have to go through taking it all apart...again.
Thank you man! Had problems with a new Toro Recycler 22", switched the air filter, spark plug, cleaned the gas tank, still wouldn't start. Found your video, cleaned the carburetor like you said and it runs like I bought it yesterday!
Certainly a simple carb and simple to work on, I haven't come across one before so it was interesting to see. Thanks for sharing - keep them coming Frank.
Lol, you mentioned that you had one that would not start after 3 or 4 days when it sat. I had the same issue and it drove me nuts to figure it out. but i did, it was the float needle was not sealing and it flooded the engine cylinder. So i cleaned the seat with steel wool and it worked, problem solved.
Yeah, I understand that, I'm not a fan of these at all. I really miss the old carb on tank engines, much easier to work on, or even the metal bowl type carbs. Thanks for Watching!!!
Very good video. I knew I had a fuel problem and you showed me how to remove the carburetor and clean it. The job was reasonably easy and the mower works well. I like my mower with a Briggs & Stratton engine better than the previous Honda powered mowers that I had - they both developed surging issues. After doing the work the mower started and ran well on the first pull of the rope. Now, I wonder how I can get it to run with a quieter exhaust.
Had to replace carb on one for customer...his neighbor worked on it...stripped the plastic on the 7 mm screws. Carb still good can just use a little bigger .longer screw....worked a friends Bolens....you get air leaks if that red gasket can't seal
By chance do you think if i get the plug out of the bottom of the float bowl,do you think i can spray carb cleaner up to that check ball and get it cleaned that way. Just saying the lazy way out first.
Well instead of trying the lazy way out, I did it your way, since there isn't anything to that carb, I shot carb cleaner in that little hole under that check ball and nothing, took a little wire like you said and sprayed it again and you wouldn't believe the crap that came our of it. Long story short, put it back together and the first pull she fired up😅. Thanks for the detailed video.
Bought a Chinese carb "kit" with carb, gaskets, etc. Installed it but the primer bulb isn't working - quite hard to start. Once started it runs fine. Question - there is a red o-ring in the kit maybe 2/3 inch in diameter; do you know where it goes?
where does the throttle wire go? it doesnt look like its hooked to anything can you do a quick video showing where that wire (cable) goes. It doesnt hook up to the brake handle on my mower...is this normal

Great help, got me back running.
Hello ! Thanks for your video, and sharing your experience.
I love those carbs.
Had to replace carb on one for customer...his neighbor worked on it...stripped the plastic on the 7 mm screws. Carb still good can just use a little bigger .longer screw....worked a friends Bolens....you get air leaks if that red gasket can't seal

Is it possible to put a different carb? Like the type of carb they use on dirtbikes, im trying to use this engine to make a gokart

Excellent. Thank you
What is the yellow nipple port for what hose gos on it or does non do?
where does the throttle wire go? it doesnt look like its hooked to anything can you do a quick video showing where that wire (cable) goes. It doesnt hook up to the brake handle on my mower...is this normal
How come when I press my primer bulb I get fuel that sprays out of that little yellow piece?
Is there a fuel filter on this model
What is the name & use of the yellow part that is sticking out from the carburetor?
Exactly what I am trying to find out.. when I press my primer bulb I get fuel that sprays out of it
Tried to clean took it apart and fired for a sec then died out and wouldnt start again?? Any ideas??
True Bro, why 2x 7mm Bolt and 2x 8mm Bolt?? Why Briggs & Stratton 😅
Yeah.....I work on em. But I use Quantum for my 2 mowers
Yeah, I got a question. How do I clean the carburetor?
If either one of the 7mm bowl screws strip the carb is toast.
The old Briggs plastic carbs much easier and simpler
Sorry air filter and high dallor
Piece of Crap Carb.
Yeah, i'm not a fan of them at all. Thanks for Watching!!!
I agree 110 %
Is t possible to put a different carb? Like the type of carb they use on dirtbikes, im trying to use this engine to make a gokart
It didn't work
I give up
I'll never buy that brand again
Excellent video.
What's the white barbed fitting for ?
I think it is just a guide to help slide it in the metal bracket
@@dsenebrechtno, it will spray fuel out when u prime it. I still haven't found a good explanation of its purpose
I'm curios also.
