    Interesting that it was the bulb as well. Mrs P. in your sliders LOL.

      She will have to order her own for Christmas lol

  • @gravelyman
    @gravelyman 2 роки тому +2

    It's most likely the repair shop wanted to put a new carb and recoiler on it and the customer didn't want to put the money in to it. The new spark plug may have been put in by the costumer. Good video!!!

  • @almclean4835
    @almclean4835 2 роки тому +2

    Didn’t realise the primer bulb could cause issues like that. Perhaps the shop that didn’t fix it didn’t know that either. Great recovery

  • @mr1pearl
    @mr1pearl 2 роки тому +2

    I bet that repair shop is working on some higher end stuff so took one look at this machine and said nope ! It fought you a little but you got it sorted 👍

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +1

      Yeah mate I think your right

  • @Chickanic

    @pattayperformance 2 роки тому +2

    When you pulled the carb bowl off it looked copper 🤣
    Honesty thought you were gonna strip the jet. When they are tough like that for me, into the ultrasonic it goes.
    Put it up for sale! I sold a $350 Honda on Sunday it was mind blowing bc we had snow in the morning! 🇺🇸🔧🦅🤙🏻

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +1

      Yo yo.. yeah I would normally put it in the cleaner but just goes to show it can be done the old school way.. ta for watching

  • @chrisnear931
    @chrisnear931 3 місяці тому +1

    I don't think it was unrepairable I reckon the shop gave them a massive quote and probably worked out cheaper to buy another mower. That's what I think Mick.
    Good job buy the way.👍👍

  • @terrymccorkle1674
    @terrymccorkle1674 2 роки тому +2

    Great job Mick. Thinking the other shop didn't want to mess with it because of problems getting parts

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +1

      Maybe but why was the carb so dirty.?

  • @northernninjarunner5506

    Hi Mick,this vid reminds me of a McCulloch mower I took into a well known Sheffield mower place because the drive was not working, after about 4 weeks waiting for it to be repaired ,I went to the shop and was told the drive was gone and was quoted £120..I told them not to bother I would use it as a push along....well to cut a long story short ,after looking round it myself found that the small bolt holding the belt pulley onto the shaft was missing...put a new bolt in started it up .hey presto drive worked..big saving on this well known company 👍

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому

      Wow a £120 bolt. Lol good one mate

  • @STTC

  • @GrampiesWorkshop
    @GrampiesWorkshop 2 роки тому +2

    How's she goin'? That was some dirty carb eh!! Lots of 'stuff' in there and everything was pretty gummy by the looks of it too. Finding the bad primer bulb was the answer too by the looks of things. Nice repair Mick. Take 'er easy!!!

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +2

      Thanks brother.. yeah it was a head scratcher but we got there in the end..

  • @mushthatzme
    @mushthatzme 2 роки тому +2

    Being a dealer myself it Could be just that the guy decided to upgrade, I won't ever throw a machine out if it has a dirty carb, if its got spark, got compression and fuel I'll give it the time of day. A running machine is profit at the end of the day eh. 😆 That's just myself though. They wolf machines are a royal pain for spares like you say.

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +2

      Well it has two of the three.. but the carb was soo bad.. not even looked at? May of been an upgrade like you say

  • @Herbybandit
    @Herbybandit 2 роки тому +1

    The wonderful Chonda engine! Chinese Honda clone, in essence the same engine used by Hyundai and Einhell.
    An Einhell gave me a real headache where the idle jet from the factory was too small and needed opening up just a hair! To stop it surging. Also the air box to carb join had to be totally air tight.
    I sold it on and the new owner put E10 fuel in it and it just wouldn't run on E10, as soon as he put ethanol free fuel in it all was fine.

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching and for the information mate

  • @johnobiro5202
    @johnobiro5202 2 роки тому +2

    That clip you discarded on the vacuum hose might have been there for a reason. I would put my hand over the fuel cap whilst priming it.

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +1

      Hi John.. no mate it just pushed on.. no clip needed.. ta for the tip and for watching bud

  • @peterreeve8663
    @peterreeve8663 2 роки тому +3

    Looks like my old mate Percy Vere helped you out there Mick. I thought given the state of that carby you would have bunged it in the ultrasonic while it was off. Well done Mate another one nearly ready to sell next season.

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +1

      Yeah I was going to bit thought it would be ok

  • @fixitorstripitGardenmachines
    @fixitorstripitGardenmachines 2 роки тому +2

    Old mowers and repair shops don't go together. I had one in where he was quoted £60 just to look at it, keeps me busy lol. Great vid sir Mick

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +1

      Yeah mate .. always somewhere for people like us..

  • @HobbyMotorDK

  • @Big_Johns
    @Big_Johns 2 роки тому +2

    Good save and nice video Mick. Yeah those safety sliders looked like swim flippers on Mrs P.
    Now she should go disinfect her little feetsies. :)

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +2

      Lol she has stinky feet.. I had to wash my sliders lol

  • @freedommowers420
    @freedommowers420 2 роки тому +2

    Great find there in the end. Probably the fuel wasn’t able to draw up the jet due to the primer leak. Maybe the owners decided for the money to fix it, they could just go purchase a new machine. Thanks for the upload!!

    • @themowerman

  • @KensSmallEngineRepair

    Primer bulb, that's a new one. Probably sucking too much air through it causing it to stall. Good catch Mick!

    • @themowerman

  • @andrewcollins824
    @andrewcollins824 2 роки тому +1

    Another great vid Mick, since watching your vids i now have the confidence to clean all the carbs on my mowers for the first time and i'm surprised they were all running. Have 4 mowers as i'm a gardener and they all run very smooth now. Thanks for the introduction of pocket rocket to this stuff is great.

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому

      Hi Andrew.. that's fantastic mate.. and will save you some money in the long run.. that's what my videos are for.. ta for the support mate

  • @northernninjarunner5506
    @northernninjarunner5506 2 роки тому +1

    The shop said it would cost too much so the customer scrapped it

  • @bradleyhatchen
    @bradleyhatchen 2 роки тому +1

    Carby clot it can be fix very simple to do maybe the lawn mower repair miss the Carby cleaning

  • @bradleyhatchen

  • @DicksSmallEngines
    @DicksSmallEngines 2 роки тому +2

    Ear defenders & safety glasses ! What on earths going on ! Good to see you’re keeping it real donning the old safety sliders though my mate ! I’d suggest that repair wasn’t financially viable for the shop hence why it was destined for the scrap heap….. either way you’re quids in ey….. thoroughly enjoyed. Good work brother 👏🏻👍🏻🔧

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +2

      Just a bit too cold for the sliders and I keep getting wet socks lol

  • @MissouriOldTimer
    @MissouriOldTimer 2 роки тому +2

    I would say that the time needed to repair the mower was more than the customer wanted to pay so they scuttled it. that's how I got a lot of the mowers I repaired and sold,, I didn't really count my time so it was worth it to me to get them going and sell them.

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  2 роки тому +1

      Yeah free labour.. so still room for profit..

  • @garyclifton2180
    @garyclifton2180 2 роки тому +1

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  Рік тому

      Yeah .. if it has a choke it doesn't need a primer

  • @dougied4827
    @dougied4827 2 роки тому +1

    Well done sir Mick. I bet the mower shop couldn’t be bothered to spend the time on it fault finding so told the poor fella it’s a scrapper or maybe he didn’t want to spend the money on it either way it’s a result for you my friend. Great channel 👊🏻

  • @rogermcdonald1607
    @rogermcdonald1607 2 роки тому +2

      It will sell for around£100 here

    @Mark-xx8go 7 місяців тому +1

    Greart video. My 'self drive' mower, rear wheel drive, is now stuck in drive whichever position the handle is in. All the repair videos `I see are to fix when it doesnt drive. Mines the opposite; so cannot stop unless I remove turn it off. Any ideas for where to start a potential fix would be gratefully received. Many thanks

    • @themowerman
      @themowerman  7 місяців тому +1

      Sounds like the cable is stuck or the lever that is on the gearbox.. tip it on its side carb side up and having a look at the gearbox and cable.. make sure it's all moving
