Jesus Christ been doing this wrong the whole time. I never knew about the fuel level stop. What I have been doing is pulling the rubber plug off the cap and drilling a small hole OFF center. I reinstall the rubber plug and SEND IT! I haven't had any issues, from now own I will pass this info on to existing Honda Owner's and New One's when I sell a honda powered machine!
One of my favorite quotes of all time is "When you learn something new everyday, you get to teach something new everyday"
Inspector Mower Medic has solved yet another mystery for me, I've had several Honda motors over the years and never knew what that little red adapter was for. Thanks buddy!! :)
I learn something every time I watch your channel.
Guilty as charged. I have over filled once in a while and didn't realize the ramifications. Thanks for the tutoring... Knew why the red ring was there but did go past and now see the errors of my ways.
Good tip!
If my kid said that, my first sentence would have been "What did you do to it?" lol
Got'ta love it when you can turn an everyday situation into a teaching moment
Good to know. I am partial to Briggs, but see Hondas more and more, so I learned something today. Thank you.
Thanks for this! I overfilled the gas tank and had engine issues. While troubleshooting, was so fortunate to find this video. You saved me from doing unnecessary carburetor work. Cheers!
Thanks for confirming this. I always mean to see what that red insert was, but always forgot after I am done mowing. I have to take it out when using my funnel with a float insert so I don't overfill, but always put it back. I never have an issue with overfilling due to the funnel with the float. Only problem I had with this engine was (when brand new) that it would surge. I found a honda bulletin that pointed out that there was a newer (smaller) governor spring but it is what mine had. The one tidbit in the bulletin that fixed it was the mention of twisting the governor spring tab to adjust the rpm. Working great ever since.
That is certainly something I did not know
Once again I learned something!
I love the No-Spill push button gas canisters. I got quite a few of them. Great cans.
Great info Mower Medic. I learn something new every time I see your videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Have a honda mower know what you are talking about we also have 5 of the same gas can and we love them!
Wish I had found your channel earlier. Worked like a charm
I'm glad I am a subscriber to your channel. I have Troybilt TB 240 mower with a Honda GCV 160 engine and only noticed the four holes in the fuel cap this afternoon after watching your video. I didn't know about the fuel level stop either.
I Have the old 20 year old model Honda , mine doesn't have this gas cap setup - but it's good to know this for I've worked on the newer models . 👍
Always wondered what that was for thank you.
Great knowledge!
Thanks for the info never had a problem on the honda push mower but my 4 stroke honda trimmer can't tighten the fuel cap to tight or it will boge down tryed new cap same issues
good tip!
That was very instresting
Dang it, broke my screen again. I need to stop taking that ‘smash the like button’ literally. 😆
Thanks for the awesome tip.
Good info. Thanks.
This was helpful thank you
Great tip didn't know that
I have that same Honda engine on a Troy Bilt mower. The last time I used it I over flowed the gas tank, fortunately no clogged gas cap. Good to know information though.
Thanks for telling me that, my fuel dip on mine is missing. I never knew that.
It depends on the model. Yours may not have one
@@THEMOWERMEDIC1 - thanks I will look closely to make certain.
Both my mower and power washer both have the Honda GCV 160 motor and never knew it
I like the banjo music...who is it?
It’s an old bluegrass tune … Reuben by Flatt and Scruggs.
Awesome tip. New subscriber :-)
Nice. How many hours you think you got on the HRX?
Great videos. I watch all of them. Curious. I have a Homelite Pressure washer UT80993E With a Honda Engine GCV160.(GJARA-39786447 N N5R). Is it normal for the engine to surge and when you hit the trigger to power wash the engine smooths out? Is there a fuel filter on this model? Thanks.
Can the cap be taken apart?
I suspect this is why my Honda Mower motor stopped running yesterday.
If the holes are plugged with debri THIS WILL CAUSE SURGING!!!!! Gas doesn’t flow to bowl, starving it causing like your running out of gas. You look in tank & say I have gas. Took weeks 2 realize these holes were plugged causing SURGING! Thanks.
Always buy a Honda! lol
When I was working on my mower the other day the dog chewed my red filler ring up. Will the motor run ok without it?
Little tiny black beads was falling out of the holes of the cap and then I noticed it was around the spout that you pour the gas into....So Does that mean I need new gas cap? On a Honda pressure washer.
Yes new cap time
That's the GCV
Fixed. Thanks. I had the hrc216 on the brain
I need to buy a new mower, is Honda what you would recommend. I've been real happy with my Honda generator. Thanks
I like the cut quality of the Honda. Rear wheel drive is a must also. I’ve had mine for
14 cutting season now with zero
Issues
Just replaced a 20 year old Honda, still started first pull, deck was rusted. I bought a toro powered by Honda for the side discharge option.
I truly got mine for free, someone was throwing it away because the rip cord would not retract. It was like new condition, oil was very clear, all I did was remove the old fuel, changed the oil and of course the old starter cord assembly. The only thing I don’t like about the starter cord is even the new replacement, after several uses hangs up and I have to tap it or jiggle the cord back in. I’m not sure if dust or grass particles are causing that or I got a cheap aftermarket on Amazon or what. I’m afraid to lube it, does anybody have any suggestions? It always starts right up, just have to play with the cord.
Yes, definitely
@@ThePerfectSeason1972 spray wd40 in the round spring in the pull cord housing. Take off the pull cord “cover” and there is a big metal strip coiled into a circle, spray wd40 or all purpose oil on it and put the “cover” back on and pull it over a few times to work the oil into it. The pull cord should go all the way in now.
Not no Bueno!!!!

Do hawks attack your chickens like they do in my open yard?. Nothing legal to do about it .
The HONDA GC engine are there really cheap engine , buy the mower with the GX engine
Angry rooster 😆
I think he’s gay
