ROPER PUSH MOWER - Revival & Restoration
Переглядів 1,1 тис.2 роки тому
This old push mower is made by Roper and sold by Rickel. It has a Tecumseh TVS90 3.5 horsepower vertical shaft engine. It does not run and has not run since I have owned it. I got it about three years ago free on the side of the road. I want to get this engine running so that I can use it to repurpose this vintage push mower in to something more useful.
Can I Create 1 SUPER UNIT from 2 BROKEN SNOWBLOWERS?
Переглядів 8322 роки тому
I got my hands on two non-operational Craftsman 926 snowblowers. The one unit has a running 9hp Tecumseh engine, but the body of the blower, transmission, auger assembly, and wheel bearings are all shot. The other unit has a seized engine, but the remaining rolling chassis of the blower is solid. Lets do a hot swap and answer the question... CAN WE CREATE ONE RUNNING UNIT?

I took a risk and tried a bottle of Mechanic in a Bottle off the shelf from Lowes to solve the bad gas/carburetor issues on this 1986 Toro 824 XL Snowblower. There is a video of that process here: Since the Mechanic in a bottle did not work to fix my non-running/poor running engine IO now need to fix this snowblower the old fashion way. Take the carburetor apart, put it in an ultrasonic cleaner...
Can this $10 Bottle Fix Small Engine Ethanol Gas Issues?
Переглядів 16 тис.2 роки тому
I found this funny little bottle of porange liquid in the small engine repair section of Lowes power equipment isle. Fer $10 it claims - among other things - to fix ethanol gas issues! Obviously I am not going to accept a claim like that at face value, so lets test it! I have a non running 1986 Toro 824 XL Snow Blower. It runs, but not very well. Will Mechanic in a Bottle do the trick?

This carburetor belongs on a Yamaha Raptor 660 which belongs to a friend of mine. This bike will crank all day, but will not fire. If you put a bit of good fuel down the carburetor throat it will bark to life and then die. Clearly a case of bad fuel/dirty carburetor. In this video I want to show you the quick, easy, complete way to clean a carburetor perfectly every time.

    It's also important to grease the shaft so the shifter can slide easier on it. That one looks way too dry. And clean off the metal plate will help it work much better. You never want to get any lube on the metal drive plate or rubber wheel, ever.

    That fuel line is not long enough and the diameter is too large to squeeze through the slot it has to fit for a Tecumseh HM series. good luck that the valve does not leak or jam in position. The filters are not needed as the gas tank has a screen.

    I have been using them Amazon carbs on all my small engines for years. Not a single one has been bad. Mind you this covers back pack 2 stroke blowers, line trimmers, outboards and lawnmowers. For the price its a no brainer. And in almost every case it leaves me with an extra carb for parts if im in a pinch and need to help someone out rite away.
