And bent crankshaft are so common,, i managed to straighten it on a free Honda Hrx537 today. . it was vibrating so much that it ran away but runs nice now ..
Another grand tutorial, Some times the crank may be slightly bent from the previous owners hitting something they should not have, and just wear and tear of the crank `where the piston rod bolted on to, these can cause vibration, but unlikely, The best blade balancers are the ones you use on the wall ,they are more accurate, not got one me self but will be soon.
Lot to take in there. I've just been hanging the blades on a nail but you're the second person to recommend that balancing gadget but it's sometHong like £8 plus £6 delivery. Hmmm. Removing blades of a riding mower I was one of the bottom keyways (not the key) had a small (1/4" ) chunk fall out. Anyone know what the part is I have to replace? Vertical axis ? Something like that? (Murray mower.) No vibration but want to change it. Thanks.
Hello again mower man, sorry to bother you but I need help to find and order the correct gasket and diaphragm for my briggs and stratton 32 classic, I tried to email you but it never went through I have the model number etc, but I've tried to search on briggs website and no joy, could you please help me out when you have time, thanks for your help and video's. 👍
I've got an identical one I've got ready to sell. Any idea what make it is? Can't see any branding on it other than the engine. Interesting your comments re the throttle control. Mine's the same as yours ie doesn't do much. I assumed it was down to adjustment but glad to see they're all like that. Glad to see you back makings vids!
Could be a bent crank.. get a small length of string.. attach it from one end of the deck to the other.. with a marker make mark where the centre of the blade bolt it's.. take out the HT lead. With the mower on its side bend down and turn the blade gently. And your looking to see if the did on the string stays in the centre of the bolt.. of not then it's bent..
Just wondering if you can help with which spark plug I need please. Bought a 20 year old mount field Jupiter 46pd as a side project to see if I could get it running. Code: mpr10082. The spark plug it came with is an ngk bkr6e but I’ve got a feeling that’s the wrong one. Any ideas? Cheers.
at 28:26 you blew the filter off the table and didnt realise ;) also, I'm guessing bent crank was the vibration?, I've had one before, everything seemed fine until I REALLY got into it :)
I've been watching a lot of your vids. I've recently bought a used Mountfield self propelled with b&s classic type engine. Just like the ones in a lot of your vids. I've serviced it... put fresh fuel, new gasket and diaphragm, new air filter.. oiled the foam a touch , topped up oil, changed governor spring and also the larger spring. New spark plug... but the engine revving quiet high and low... surging more than it was before the service!!!!! Am I Missing something?
@@themowerman hi thanks for your prompt reply. How do I check the fuel intake? The O ring and clip are installed properly and the gasket and diaphragm I got from an Amazon seller and seemed absolutely fine. I'll check everything again tomorrow but as the revs are higher than before what do I adjust in order to reduce them? I saw it on one of your video but I can't remember what it was you either pulled out or pushed in.
@@biggur5 Where the little spring goes on to the carb the other end goes onto a little tab. Bend the tab towards the back of the mower. That should slow it down. Regarding the intake you will need to remove the pull cord recoil. Remove the coil. And the intake is under It. Two bold 1/4 size will undo them. Then clean the intake and check it
@@themowerman thanks and clearly explained. I'll have a look tomorrow sometime . I'll let you know how I get on. If the new bigger spring appears to have more tension than the old one will it create more or less revving? If all fails I might put the old spring back in (I can't put the old smaller one back in as it broke, hence the reason I replaced them ) anyway I'll let you know how I got on. (Providing the weathers nice ) 👍
Hi Paul do you have a email address I can contact you on please am after a part for a honda but can't see one on your Website . Wanted to send you a pic of it to see if you had one Many thanks Paul
Blade is spot on Paul it creates extra suction to pull the grass through, nice to see you back love the vids.. N
Great video I noticed you forgot to put the filter gauge back on the carburettor but a pleasure to watch 👍
You are right Norms I did! I noticed when I was editing the video!
And bent crankshaft are so common,, i managed to straighten it on a free Honda Hrx537 today. . it was vibrating so much that it ran away but runs nice now ..
Great content Paul cheers for that , that was some gap between blade and deck, good to see you bought yourself some treats 🙂👍
Good video, you should clean the filler cap before removing and clean up any spillages
Hi buddy I have a John deere mower it as a crank protector on it but the blade slips when it s running so motor runs uneven , any idea's , thanks Paul
Nice job. Turned out well..
Im currently in the process of fixing a Mountfield hp454 engine and that cable and leaver is one thing i need to get for it to run right
Cracking find Paul 🍻🍻🍻

Glad you enjoyed it

Mower man with all your experience on lawnmowers would you say low or no oil would stop a mower from starting

Not sure tbh Adrian.

That's a great way to check Mick! Cheers for that

I'm not sure tbh I use NGK B2 LM in most though
@@MowerMan thanks for the reply mate, ill give it ago, your videos inspired me to start tinkering ive learnt alot so thanks!

I had to rewind as I spotted that too haha
My old Briggs mower you could feel the fuel in the bulb but with my new Briggs 450 e I can't feel fuel in the bulb,is that normal?
I think so yes. It works differently
Good one...Could be the crank is slightly out of line..🤔
Hey do you want this funnel back 😂👍👏👏

Could be a poor quality diaphragm and gasket set
Check the fuel intake.. it may have a hole in it also make sure the o ring and clip is fitted in the carb where it slides into the fuel intake..
@@themowerman hi thanks for your prompt reply.

U don't really show the process of setting the revs on this mower as stated on the discription
do you put any warranty's on them when selling? thx
no sold as seen
Engine bolts perhaps Paul.
they looked ok but thanks Pete
Hi Paul do you have a email address I can contact you on please am after a part for a honda but can't see one on your Website .
Wanted to send you a pic of it to see if you had one
Many thanks
Paul
try garden hire spares
@@MowerMan thank you
Its a tension arm for a honda HRB425C SQE
It’s not necessary to disconnect the spark plug wire and nobody’s on the other end
no cutting corners..
Sounds like a bent blade on
vibrating mower? I always check for a bent crank first. People are wracking rocks and stumps all the time.
next check......bent blade.
