    Thank you!!!!!!!’ I have spent years trying to start our mower when cold by pulling it 50 bloody times and then giving it a sniff of aero start!!! Your video has solved this, followed your instructions and surprise ,started first pull!!! You are definitely worth more money!!!!!!!

    You Legend! I just picked up a mint HRU196 the guy was jack of as it took 5 mins to start, did this and BANG it started first pull. Best part is that he'd JUST had it serviced so it's ready for the year! 🤘

    Rang into this issue two days ago and worked out the choke wasn’t working. Been trying to find a video as to why the lever wasn’t activating and the solution. I’ll be trying this is a few days when it’s not 42 Deg C.
    Thank you for the video.

    Can the part which has CB303 ever bugger up. My machine won’t start at all. I’ve drained the old fuel, cleaned the carb including pull the jet out (it’s clear) spark plug is fine as it works in another machine. I’m a bit stuck!

    Hi, i have the same mower as yours and for some reasons i cant push the throttle controller into the joke position, the maximum i can push the controller to halfway of min and maximum, nowhere near the joke
    Position, just wondering if your know why? Thanks for helpings

    • @jasonbrowne7057

      Your throttle cable could be stretched, frayed or not adjusted correctly at the controller.

    I can manually reach in and flip the carb to choke, but then actually moving the lever to choke then actually releases it. Grrrr.

    • @rattlebob8984
      @rattlebob8984 Рік тому

      Did you fix this? Mine was doing the same and I noticed the little bar that attaches to the choke flap actuator on top of the carb had been fitted to the front hole. I moved it to the rear hole and it now works perfectly. Mine has a manual choke.

      @@rattlebob8984 I rebuilt this section with a new carb and using studs instead of the 6" screws so the "house of cards" is no more. And......you were exactly correct about the linkage. Moved it to the rear/inner hole and it works perfectly. BINGO! If you're interested in the stud fix, find the YT video with ID v=luCYRA-1jfY in the URL. Title is "the frustration is over".
