I have 15 law boys. I live near a long, long time dealer who kept it going until he died in 2018 unfortunately. He didn’t sell new ones anymore of course but sort of hung out and maintained and repaired lawn boys for local folks who bought them there over the years. Mine are all commercial grade models except for a couple. My prize possession is my 1984 model 6262 commercial with blade brake clutch that was new in the box, never assembled. I’ve still never put it together. It was the best of the best. The dealer had many new old stock mowers that were sold at auction. And over 400 used ones in storage that needed some repairs, traded in, etc. I’ve used them since I was a kid in the 70’s. Family all had lawn boys. 32:1…all day long!!!
I've never used, owned or ever seen a Lawnboy in person. But I enjoy seeing Taryl working on different types of machines. Always well explained and shot to were you can understand how it works. Thumbs up from East Tennessee.
We have one for 40+ yrs. Because it is 2 stroke, you can use it to mow steep slopes without fear of starving the engine of oil. It is however difficult to start after sitting for any length of time but is relatively quiet once running. Excellent drive on it.
I just got one last week. All i had to do to get it running was put new crank seals in it. I've used it to mow a few yards and so far it cuts and runs great
There's some here in east TN, but I swear I've seen way more of them when living in PA.
@@Legalmachinist should not be difficult to start. My 1956 5000 and 1979 7268 fire in two pulls everytime. Once in awhile they'll turn over in one pull. Non oxygenated 91 octane is the secret. Amsoil Saber mixed 32:1 is my preferred oil
you dont want one!! more trouble than they are worth!! a cheap mower with a briggs is fine if it blows up get another
its no big deal
Great video Taryl, nothing beats the sound of a 2 stroke!
Yeah, they made a lawn girl... turned out to be too high maintenance to keep around.
LOL
Now known as non-binary Lawn Them
Don't argue with Lawn Girl--Dicker
I will NEVER need to know this but I ALWAYS love any Taryl video. That soldering iron fix for the striped out screw was a bonus! A man bun boy could make a whole video outta that tip.
I Have a Lawnboy Gold.series electric start. It cuts the Grass better than any other lawn mower ive ever owned. Nothing better than a 2 stroke. Thanks for the video
I love learning about these Lawn Boys. No better man to teach you than Mr. Dactyl. He and his family are responsible for hours and hours of education for me as well as entertainment. Thank you so very much Dactyl family for sharing your talents with us!!
With the gufna set right and a sharp blade there's virtually no sag in rpms when going into some heavier grass. I love my Lawn Boy!
Great job. Thanks for the lesson Boss. I almost want to cry when i hear this good old engine running like clockwork. Lawn Boy beast is back , grass should tremble with fear 😁😁love it! Thanks from France to Boss Taryl and the team. Fred
Hey Taryl, love the videos, your the man when it comes to anything with a small engine. Also can we see more of Mr. Slippers? Hes funny! 😆😅🤣😂
I'll never work on one of these, but I always learn something that I can apply to other jobs. Thank-you for my dinner!
I love my lawnboy 2 stroke, I have a duraforce though
Taryl for president
Good sound advice from a level thinking man with lots of experience and heaps of good looks
"My father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate broke his flywheel like that one time!"
Only seen this one time. Had to do it without that tool. Little slow the first time but I only had to pull the flywheel 2 times. Thanks for the video Taryl.
Another excellent video. The old LawnBoys are awesome.
I can't believe how close you got the rpm's 👍 Thanks for the lesson !
I like your fix for stripped plastic holes.i have always used the end of a small plastic Ty Rap. Black of course in thus case. Also works well. Thanks for the govenor tips.
Thanks for sharing Taryl
Every lawn boy i've had has had the air vane governor. I have a Duraforce now and it has a little click wheel to adjust the air vane spring tension.
Those didn't come around until the F engines which were the ones that replaced this model in the video. I believe the production engine models were: A, C, D400, D600, F, V, M(oil injected, no mixing fuel) and strangely E(Duraforce)
Just like the one we had when I was a kid it was great it was one of the first ones in the area with self propelle
sounds like that old ted williams outboard motor we had. it was 7.5 horse and the loudest thing on the lake. i have a lb 10328 with a 4 stroke engine. a tecumseh lv100. bought it new in 98. runs perfect. never even had the carb off it. every 6,7,8 years i have to clean the main jet.
Taryl is numero uno, lawn mower man.💯💯✅✅✅
Always good info 👌
There’s your dinner! Could of used that tip forty years ago. Lookin for a mini bike that needs restoring, goin to Indiana next year!!!!!!
My dad to use cut lawn with lawn boy they were the best at that time. The solid state ignition messed then up. EPA.
Taryl great channel can’t believe you do not have more subscribers, i watched 6 hrs of the content on Saturday. I have a lawn boy riding mower with a Kohler and peerless transmission I was wondering does it really need that bentonite grease? Thank you much plan on picking up taryl apparel soon.
wish you had this lawn boy
The reason that plastic collar turns like it does is because the engine can run backwards. Only an issue with the D 600 engine. The D 400 does not have the issue as it has points. If you were to shut the mower off with the switch and just before it stopped completely you were to turn the switch back to on as the engine kicked back before stopping completely it could run backwards. The collar turns counter clockwise and shuts the fuel off by closing the throttle. Just a FYI.
Bending the "Wind Vane" upward increases the speed of the engine? I didn't know that. Thanks Mr. Taryl.
I can't explain why but I love the Lawnboy videos. Seems like a drunk cousin of the lawnmowers of today.
We had shit loads of those in New Zealand in the early 50s, they were marketed as iron horse engines in Morrison mowers.
Thank you.
Back in high school I took a small engine class and all we worked was lawn boys. Easy mowers and sort of tough
Thanks buddy
Never need the info love the entertainment thanks and more please
Hello Taryl, I love your videos. Do you ever work on outboard boat motors?
Good video 👍🤝
Still the Lawn Boy King.
The manual clearly shows a right-handed hammer and you sir used a left-handed hammer.
yes
Have 2 models alike, 1 only used few times .
I remember hearing a lot of those old lawnboys running a little bit erratically as far as speed was concerned kind of like this one just did to begin with. I wonder if that governor/weight set up is sticky and needs some sort of lubrication?
Curiosity question on other engines, what is the difference between adjusting the throttle vs the governor?
Like a surgeon👌
I LIKE the BACKGROUND MUSIC !!!!!!!!!!!
I still can't believe you got my old mower..I forgot all about that thing
Anybody remember the baggers that stuck out about 3 feet? Took a little planning to cut the local old ladies yard!
When I was a kid in the 70’s, it was always the weird neighbors that had these. We never had any trouble out of ours……….
Hello to Elkskins!
Taryl if I bring the governor of Minnesota by ur shop could u fix him. He is out of whack.
Love lawn boy related
What deck will fix a 50 inch white outdoor riding mower other than the original one?
Taryl : i'm showing you how i fix engines but you can do whatever the hell you want and there's your dinner , lmao 🤣🤣👍
Thanks for my Dinner
Who makes the gas motor for lawnboy?
if its to fast you can also take the Governor rod out and grind the tip .. it faster then pulling the fly wheel ..
Wall-E and Slimer had a baby.
Western Auto used to sell a 18 inch push mower with a Tecumseh two stroke. That would be just the thing to mow my roadside ditch.
wizard they where good light mowers
We had a LawnBoy in the 80's. Simple, reliable Mower. Loaned it to s neighbor and supplied the Pre-mix gasoline. He decided to use his own Gasoline which wasn't Pre-mix. Seized the engine. Was too expensive to fix at the time and neighbor didn't give a crap. So another OMC LawnBoy went to the dump.
This is why you shouldn’t last people borrow your stuff most people don’t care about it and will abuse or use it improperly
@@hunter7476 I would have kicked him in the nuts for that
@@tylerfranx4286 yeah your right. you slagged my mower! That’s what I would tel him
@@tylerfranx4286 we always say you slagged my mower in the mower shop because people come in and think we ripped them off lol
I have that tool.
" Now There's Your Dinner ... " LOL " lawn Girl "
I still haven't fixed my damn Duerr wood chipper! More interested in getting/helping country to think right.
Well good luck with that!
I have a two and a half gallon Lawn-Boy gas can, I also have a two and a half gallon gas can that says Craftsman on it. They are identical
U gotta use a flywheel putter to get it back on taryl..
Close enough!
😂great video and very informative 👍 👏 funny also 😄
Elk Skins tried to flex on Taryl. He told the man to shut up in his own shop….Taryl should’ve run over his feet with that Lawnboy.
it was character-swap time......
Hey Taryl 👋
You'd thought that they would have made the rod adjustable, so you wouldn't have to pull the flywheel off to adjust the rpm. Or it could be that they didn't want it to be easy to adjust.
Yes but that flywheel comes off pretty easy
Lawn-Boys of this vintage were to be serviced annually by your dealer's service department. Somewhere on YT is an old LB video for dealers that instructs them on up selling new blades and spark plugs every year, selling an extra spark plug, extra LB oil, a LB fuel can etc. It was cheesy and mostly unnecessary, but it worked and the mowers would last for decades and decades if maintained. Do keep in mind that LBs were easily 2x the price of the average mower. Our local LB dealer would pick up the mower, "tune it up" for the season with a new plug and blade, clean under the deck, inspect and clean the exhaust ports, clean the muffler, spot paint scuffs, lube the wheels and height adjusters, flush the fuel tank, clean the carb bowl, replace the fuel line, replace the starter rope at the least sign of wear, give it a good wash, test run it, and drop it back off with a full tank of fresh fuel. EVERY YEAR FOR DECADES. I have no idea what all this cost, but everyone on my mothers side of the family had Lawn-Boy mowers. The ones with real money had the self propelled variety. haha! That little dealer would service hundreds of mowers each year. All preventive maintenance. I remember the guy dropping it off in a jump suit uniform with his name embroidered on one side and Lawn-Boy logo on the other. It was a different time, and a different world really.
@@mikemorgan5015 Sounds like it was very upper class. Today a crew of three-four comes out & brings their own equipment. Times change. Long Live LB, Long Live Snapper ! (never owned a Lawn Boy) : l
@@timewa851 Lawn-Boy's fate was sealed when Toro bought them. While they are still around, they are now just another consumer mower brand IMO. In the days I recounted above, nearly all of the professional landscapers(there weren't many and they mostly did commercial work like banks and businesses) in my area used Lawn-Boy mowers. Operators couldn't forget to check or change the oil, they were light and nimble to use, and they didn't rust out.
@@mikemorgan5015 A better time and a better world if you ask me. I don’t think times will ever be that great again.
Yo Elkskin watt up buddy !!!!
Why is the right front wheel offset to the back.
3400 is what I set all my Lawn-Boys to run at.
✝️🇺🇸👍 hope everyone is having a blessed day
👍Another good 1 T!
And as we all know….it’s a lawn mower, NOT the space shuttle! 😂👍
Lawn Boy Yard Man
Were you get that tachometer at.
No idea he’s had this stuff for a while I’m sure you can find something on Amazon or eBay or even a local mower shop
Ended up at a nice rpm... Ideally, this mower gov should be set at 3200 rpm. while under LOAD cutting grass, not spinning free. You want the rpm high up in that max HP power curve while under operating conditions on that high throttle setting. Just don't set the gov so high it over revs and you are all good. No one on mowing channels ever mentions that. I have a mud motor channel, that's how I figured it out.

I used to have a Lawnboy. I fired him and the Poolboy when I caught them in with the wife!
near yawn
The Lawn Girl® was only made for 1 year. They only ran on premium fuel and wouldn't work for 1 week out of every month.
WELL TARYL,I already have a shirt LIKE THAT ,but mines in WHITE and has 3 fancy STRAPS that allow whom-ever is in charge of me that day to WRAP MY ARMS around to my back,and it keeps me nice and warm.SNUG in a rug as they say.OHH yah mines the JACKET style not the tee-shirt,But i did ask then if i could have a black MAGIC MARKER to write "THERE'S YOUR DINNER"on the sleeves,they said they would have to contact you to get perm-miss-eeeone.
👍👍
Hey Terrell you ever heard your boy is a Yard Man
Love dems Lawnboys
Just don't use butt end of socket wrench between fins, or be very careful. Clamp wrench.
I love your videos and will always watch but only about 3 people left in American still have a working Lawnboy Lawnmower .
I guess I know two of them, then. I have two customers with two stroke Lawn Boys.
Lawn girl would make lawn boy do all the mowing and she'd just sit in the garage.
mmmm... more like watch him & ridicule his lack of edging abilities loud enough for all to hear....
They still make lawn boys?
I haven't seen any in 25 years ?
Toro who bought the lawnboy brand back in 1989 stopped making lawnboys with two cycle engines in the early 2000s. Toro still uses the lawnboy label on what is considered their budget brand of lawn mowers, but they’re 4cycle engines of different brands. Not true lawnboy mowers.
Your boy go faster than that I have one half and I thought a cable on it they go faster
How about a "Lawnman"?
Isn't fixing that old lawnboy kinda like working on an old AMC Hornet? Ya know what I mean Taryl?
i had an amc hornet straight six. good car. didnt have the 258 but the 232 i think it was. still good car
Woohoo
Sorry, Taryl, I am too dumb to own a Lawn Boy! Do they build the space shuttle now?
Tattoo made for Chester throttle only people has that tool doing work in the factory has that tool people like Us to work on those lawn mowers can't find that tool
They are boy not running right now keep permanent and keep it running
Weeeeooow
NO!!! lmfao
Had 3 lawn boy's and one was a snow blower, just saying.
Where is your men hair BUN ? HAHAHA
I have several cans of lawn-boy oil 32:1 in case you want to mow and kill mosquitoes at the same time. Because that thing does not smoke like it should…
We never had one personally but a friend up the street could be seen mowing in a cloud of blue smoke every week. The sound and the smoke bring back memories.
I still remember the fog of 2-cycle smoke left behind in my next-door neighbor's Zoysia when he cut his lawn every Saturday.
