    Thank you. How do you fix/repair a pull cord that won't retract?

    Great video! Thank you. The little fuel filter you stuck on your finger, mine does not have that. Where can I find one? I've tried looking.

    Great video. Very technical but you made the fix clear. Looking forward to a drive roller chain replacement video. Mine is popping off.

    My Mclane Gx160 7 blade 25" has been struggling when running. I just had it about year and 1.5 years. Would it need a spark plug and carburetor cleaning that early?

    • @TheLawnSauce
      @TheLawnSauce  Рік тому

      Hi Stanley. Hard to say. I would unscrew the spark plug and visually check it. If its black and wet looking, you could have a fouled plug. From there you can think about cleaning the carb. Troubleshoot one step at a time.

    I can't seem to find any instructions on my Briggs and Stratton engine... Very similar to yours but slightly different model...?

    Where does one connect the throttle control?

    • @TheLawnSauce
      @TheLawnSauce  Рік тому

      On my model, the throttle cable connects to the leaver above the choke. I’ve been running my mower without the throttle cable.

    I have an older Mclane Briggs & Stratton 3.5 Family YBSXS 1481HH 275076 engine. I can't find parts for this? Any ideas? My carburetor is leaking gas. Mahalo!

    my reel mower is bogging at high rpms when im cutting. it doesnt want to stay consistent and its affecting the speed of the mower, leaving uncut blades of grass. I hope i only need to clean the carb

      Chances are high that the fuel pump diaphragm is torn. It’s a cheap and easy fix.

    • @TheLawnSauce
      @TheLawnSauce  2 роки тому +1

      You can most likely fix with the carb still attached. You may need to just remove the muffler to access the diaphragm cover.
