Easy to follow and thorough step by step tutorials do it yourself (DIY) videos to help you with your broken lawn and garden equipment including snowblowers and zero turn mowers.
I do my best to teach you how to easily diagnose problems the fastest, quickest and most efficient way with real repairs beyond just replacing a spark plug. These tips are for both the homeowner and shop owner.
Whether it be a handheld, two stroke, two cycle engine like a chainsaw, weed eater, weed wacker, string trimmer, grass trimmer, line trimmer, hedge trimmer, strimmer, brush cutter, leaf blower, or four stroke, four cycle units like a lawnmower, wood splitter, lawn tractor, zero turn mower, snowblower, pressure washer, generator or a ride on mower that needs parts installed or replaced, I’m your go-to guy.
My favorite brands of spark plugs are NGK and Champion and are the ones I recommend.
I’ve been a small engine mechanic for many decades and also run my own repair shop so my videos are loaded with tips and tricks that I have learned and want to share with you. You will also find many tool and product reviews from top brands on my channel as well.
I have the largest Small Engine Repair Video Library on UA-cam and the entire internet with over 1200 videos, just GOOGLE "DONYBOY73"!
I want "DON THE SMALL ENGINE DOCTOR" on UA-cam to save you time, frustration and most importantly, MONEY with my HOW-TO videos!

As a 50 yr old woman that likes to fix things myself… you are my go to guy for small engines. Thanks for the lessons!
Great job Don, saving the world , one snowblower at a time....thanks
I have a yard pro that I’ve had for about 17 years, it’s the same exact design and had to change the belt earlier this year. This video would have been timely. Great job
If you engage the blower slowly with the engine at an idle it is easier on the belt. Great videos that help people understand and fix things.
I want to thank you so much for your videos. We had to completely redo our snowblower. It runs great thanks to you!
Clear, well explained..... And I just adopted a very similar Craftsman blower, so perfect for me! Thanks Dony.
Another amazing, informative, detailed and explained video Don! Priceless! Thank you!
Thanks for you're help.I was able to fix mine.
Awesome step-by-step guide. Thanks Don!!! As always, great job!
I like that your videos are to the point and everything is explained as if it were for the person doing it for the first time. You're a good teacher.
Thank you so much , you explain very well.Keep up the good work
Another great video. Ariens is the king of snow. Dony is the snowblower King. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Donyboy!
Great viewing you make it look so easy thanks
Another great video. Thank you for taking the time to record each segment between customers and calls.
yes absolutely, it gets very busy in my shop!
Best video I've seen on changing Craftsman belts ! Mine is model 944.529571, very close in construction to yours. I'll be saving this video, thanks.
Two MTDs and a Husqvarna have made it through 45 years of snowblowing for me without losing a belt. Because we're the low spot on the street it's usual that it's slushy at the driveway apron so, in all those long years I just never, ever let the impeller stop. Nice to know now how to do it though !
That was the best to the point video I have seen so far. Thank you so much for putting out a great video.
You make it look easy. Thanks
A very calming voice.
THANK YOU!!!! really appreciate it!
Well done. Stay warm up there.
Thanks too you i do all my repair myselfe, and it is good feeling when kts done
great info
Nicely done.
Me don thanks again for making your videos 👍🏽👍🏽.
Excellent content
Great video, wow good Compression Without the valves working properly. Nice trick with rope in the cylinder
@Whatsapp me+➀❾❶➃３５❼➄➃❺➀ go play catfish with some dumb ass.
Love your videos. I have a similar Craftsman I just bought used and belt is too long. Will try the one you mentioned. And just found out you also have a French channel. Cheers from Quebec City!!
Watch my video on how to replace the auger belts on your Ariens snowblower here;
ua-cam.com/video/EI2862xC-aA/v-deo.html
Yes, I used to test those. Not as good today
That's different from my JD 1032, seems harder but it sure is nice to have that easy split apart design.
I bought one of these new with the 9.5 Briggs years ago and the only problems they seem to have is snow melts and mixes with the oily engine film and gets past the belt cover onto the drive disk sometimes . I've since sealed the area between the cover and engine and the drive doesn't slip anymore . They also had a recall on them because over priming the carb was causing fires and lastly the plastic oil drain plugs can vibrate loose and you'll loose all of the oil . Easy fixes
I’d love for you to do a Honda snowblower belt replacement on your channel!
Thanks!!! I had no idea to separate the machine, could not figure out how those 'curse words' things came out :) Could not find another video that fit this model.
i changed all the belts and frickson disk like 5 yrs ago on my craftsman
thanks for great info and can you let us know the correct belt for the traction drive as well? stens or oem number?
Hey there just wondering do you believe that ariens Is the king of snow blowers.??. Pretty sure you have for yourself. Mine's all ready to go for the winter. Keep up the great videos thank you..
I also order my belts for those from Stens, the quality it same as OEM but half the price.
Great video Donny - as usual. Very complete and detailed.
A bit off topic: What do you know about the stool you have. My father left me one of those. I guess it's from the early 50's maybe earlier. Mine has remnants of red on the wood and silver on the legs Likely made in Canada too.
Thanks
yes the stool is well over 50 years old, once saw one in a black and white movie! is it worth anything?
@@donyboy73 Yeah. It's good for propping up your snow blower :-)
Actually I have no idea. I'm keeping mine because it's been in my family for 66 years at least and it's the only sturdy stool I have.
I think my belt started slipping this winter. I smelt rubber until I laid off it a bit.
I'll be using a few of your tips on carb cleaning too. (free/picked Yardworks / MTD blower).
Thanks for the reply and the video.
My new Honda was touching right side first of the front auger housing than the left, it was pulling to the left as well. I adjusted the skids making sure all was adjusted to same height. Than checked tires for same psi. I figured out I had to loosen the bolts where it splits than retightened and now it touches evenly. Odd. Ever have this?
Hey dony i have the same model where do i find auger parts for this unit ? Like front bushings and rear impeller bearing thanks.
Hello Donyboy
I own a similar Craftsman 27 inches snowblower, I would like to know how to replace the other belt. The
drive belt that moves forward and backward the snowblower? Did you publish a video for this?
Not going to call out my current snow blower brand....but you're vids have helped me learn and save money to keep mine running....don't stop
Dony, it would be helpful to myself and others if you deciphered the Model/ Serial Number so we could learn the Date of Manufacture. Thanks. That Idler pulley seems a bit off centre and may be wearing the edge of the belt.
Thanks for the video, you saved me a lot of time and $$$. I'm wondering why you don't use the 408007 strap, as it is the right number in the owner's manual. Is it the Stens brand that is different?
I wish UA-camrs would make more of an attempt in answering questions like this. I want to know as well. I ordered the original belt part number. Hopefully when it arrives I won’t regret not buying the alternate.
Hey Don, been watching your channel for many years now lol. I know it's not the time of the year yet but I recently found someone tossing an old Toro s-200. 2 stroke snow blower. Just sprayed some fuel in the carb and it fires up but the carb is all clogged. Ever mess with these at all? Seems very simple in its design.
I have but it's a bit more labor
I noticed the bolt holes on the auger portion are slotted do you know why that is?
Do you see a lot of belts being made in India like that?
I have a question my craftsman 9 hp B&S moter wont start and stay running unless i leave the metal case off that has the key slot and is by the Carburetor. Any ideas ?? I keep that piece off and she runs all days
🙂👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
DONYBOYU what is your feelings about the 2 cycle oil that's in a packet and you mix one packet per one gallon of gas for all 2 cycle machines. Or would it be better to mix your own gas and oil so you know what the ratio is.
Waste of money in my opinion..just buy a good brand bottle of oil and a measuring cup with all the different ratios of oil on it and mix your own ..i always add just a bit more oil to the gas than recommended for 2 strokes..again im my opinion i think 50:1 is just a tad too lean so i mix it at 45:1 just for a bit more lube in the fuel ..ive not had any issues with fouling plugs doing it this way and in the long run your engine will love you long time 😁
Hey I just bought one but it's my drive belt jammed , does spliting the machine help for the drive belt ?
It makes it easier
@@donyboy73dony, I don’t understand why you are not recommending the original part number for the belt. Are you installing a shorter belt to achieve more adjustment. Please explain.
@@richardc6932 You can use whatever belt you want.
don't have to change any belts anymore, never snows in my area anymore! LOL
My advice is to replace both belts remembering the drive belt is bigger than the auger belt !😃
Symptoms I suffer myself. Dang.
Much easier and safer to buy a machine where you can change all belts by removing the bottom plate.
I cringed at the thought of splitting the machine, but it's simpler than a Honda. My craftsman blower stops blowing once it hits snow. Takes about 30 seconds for the impeller to spin. Won't take long, thanks
Hey you all there is a bot going around on here that name has a what’s app number on do more reply to them and stay safe
Don if you could pin this so everyone knows about it or make a comment yourself that would be great
My Craftsmans snowblower is barely 1 year old and so far all the Shear Pins have broken, the Auger engagement cable has broken, auger belt needs to be replaced, the snow chute direction components are loose and wont stay in place... I'm so pissed off; paid like 1500$ for it last year. I dont have a garage and all my repairs need to be done outside, in the deep ass Quebec snow... Ah man, despite being built in the USA, i feel they totally cheaped out on replaceable components, and everything aftermarket is 30$ per part +++ Are all snowblower manufactuers cheaping like this ? I am looking for a new Honda or Ariens model in the near future...
I was given the wrong sized belt for my Auger Nearly had a melt down . Some employee likes to play games.
Poolon? It's a Poulan Ed. A Poulan.
So I got a reply (and noticed.other have also) from Whatsapp saying I received a prize ?
When I Googled it links back to India.
Is this a scam ?
If so might want to warn your viewers.
Searched UA-cam and does seem to be a scam.
Be warned.
Hilarious, you got a scam reply to a post warning us about a scam reply! 😆
@@bobmcl2406 that's just how dumb they are.
