Just fixed my hunting mower with this video, class. Thanks very much.
Your welcome mate
Thank you for your great tutorial.
Scored myself a free SP414 that wouldn’t keep running after the initial primer start and needed constant primer pumps to keep it going. Followed this video and yes the carb was full of crud. Now runs a dream. 👍
Fantastic... Well done
I've had one of them mowers for 5years and I love it , so easy to sort when it starts hunting. Great vid mick cheers
Yeah mate I have to say that are one of my favourite mowers to have in.. quick to fix and sell very well.. hope all is good
That carburetor received "a bit of a happy birthday". I was thinking it was going to be another plastic carb but it's still the same process to drill out any jet. Nice video Mick.
Hi mate.. I love these little mowers.. they respond so well to a carburettor clean..
Brother and I cleaned carb on our mountfield today by watching your vid.
Thx mick.
Your welcome mate
Very helpful tutorial with the carb cleaning
Thanks 👍
Your welcome mate
Great stuff. My ride-on with the same carb was hunting. Thanks to your video cleaned it all out now driving perfectly. Thanks very much.
Fantastic news.. so glad I was able to help.. happy Mowing
Great work again my mate. Brilliant content. Very impressive. 👍🏻
Ta mate
Another great running mower
Ta mate
Great job mick the free ones are the best sometimes like number 115 here bud you killing the game
Top man mick, saved me a fortune instead buying a new mower 👍🏻
Fantastic.. happy Mowing.. that's what the channel is for
Great vid. Cheers 👍
Your welcome
Mick, I can’t thank you enough. I have two of these mowers and both started hunting. Ive had the carbs apart several times but could not get to the bottom of the problem.
I have just followed what you did in this video and BOOM, no more hunting. Before, I didn’t spot the slow jet or the tube into which the main jet flows.
Top job, keep up the good work.
Your welcome my friend.. happy mowing
Nice couple of fixes there Mick.
Yeah mate just how I like them..
Great job mate them drill bits look very handy
Yes they are
Just wanted to come and say thanks big man. I was a mouse click away from heading to screwfix for a new mower. Watched your vid and cleaned out the carb on my mountfield, no more hunting!
Fantastic
Hey mate. Great job on the carburetor and drive repair. Keep up with the vids mate you do a awesome job and I enjoy watching your vids after I get through in the shop and come in for the evening and relaxing.
Ta for the comment mate glad you like the videos.. stay safe
A great video Mick, I like the way you talk us through what you are doing. I’m a teacher in construction and I’d give you a grade 1. Good find by the way and a successful outcome. I love watching your channel, I have a lot of catching up to do 👍🏼
Wow a grade 1 it's my first pass lol ta for watching and glad you enjoy the channel
I didn’t realize my wife has quite a few “seasoned” Bruce Pender Carb Trays. And in various flavors ranging from chocolate chip cookie to Salmon! Yum!
Lol 😆
@@themowerman Well you had better permanently borrow one.
Great job buddy
Thanks mate
Brilliant vid and thank you for all the info, done all cleaning of carb strip-down, air filter, new fuel hose but still no start up, yes I do have that GGP K7RTC plug, but cant find equivalent of a better make !! 👍👍👍👍

@@themowerman Top Man, thank you Mick👍👍
@@kevinhendon no worries
How's she goin'? Cleaning a carb is so simple and it solves 90% of the problems. Nice fix on the gearbox too!!! Take care!!
Yo hi mate.. yeah carb cleaning and fuel it's an on going battle
Hey up mick I had one of them come in this week. Customer said it would not start. Had a little look in the petrol tank and it was bone dry. Put some petrol in it and away it went. 🤣 Hope every one is OK keep up the great work.
Yeah I have had that before.. sometimes I have had their old Mowers running before they have loaded the new mower in the car lol
Nice one Mick, Ive used those micro drills as well, and managed to break a couple of them!
We'll send me the good ones lol
Great fix mick i got two free mowers last week but they were both terminal so i have striped them and selling the parts and the engines I have done a snobby and scraped them for the cast ali 👍👍👍👍
That's the way.. good one
Hi Mick good repair, I have in the past bent the spring that attaches to the drive so it can’t come off, but your repair fixed it👍 as for Torch spark plugs I’ve never ever had a problem with them, my work mowers rarely get a service and most have been running Torch plugs for 2/3 years now. I like them. Good video🙂👍
Yeah some seem to be ok but with the low end stuff that comes in I see that the plugs are bad and all seem to be the same. Saying that I had a brand new NGK out a box was bad too.. it's a pop luck thing I suppose.. that mower is selling today so for a free mower I'm as happy as larry.. hope you are all good mate and keeping safe
Hi mick yeah all good this end, my shed is nearly sorted now (massive declutter) ready to get back on the mowers, I did get rid of a lot but kept the best. So video from the shed should resume soon, hope you are all well🙂👍
Don’t know what you were like at pulling the birds in your day big fella,but you can certainly pull a mower. Mountfield certainly take some stick in some quarters, but are amazing for the price point. The more expensive ones rock in general, and looked after are good quality machines. That is another great job Sir , and think you are wrong as regards people getting bored , because your videos are concise and very helpful knowledge builders 👍 Tam.
Well thanks for the comment.. as long as your enjoying the videos I will keep doing them.. it's just the odd person airing there views..
15:50-16:10 was my favourite part....
Helpful video though note that there's an adjuster to shorten the drive cable part way down - no need to cut and re-crimp.
We used to use those mini drills years ago in CNC
They do a good job
Hi do you know what size are the drill bit you used on both jets slow running and main jet?
Another very informative video well done Mick. Is it possible you can show us how you sharpen & balance a lawnmower blade? Mine desperately needs doing. Thanks.
Yeah I will do one for you
Micks Mowers cheers Mick appreciate that mate.
Neat fix mate . Do like the micro drills perhaps to install a piston and
rings on a saw lol.
Lol all I hear is excuses lol
Oh yes lol.
I understand you are trying to make shorter video's but I prefer to see how everything is done. I have never made a video for youtube so I have no idea what goes into making one. It may take a long time so I just don't know. Do what is best for you. Love the micro drills and the tip cleaners. Both work great. Great fix on both the carb and cable. Thanks for the video and stay safe.
Think I will just stuck to how I do it.. if someone thinks they are too long then so be it. Thanks for the comment and support mate
That was good! I don't understand why the levers on European mowers are curved, and the self-propel lever has such massive travel compared to American mowers. Looks like a safety design maybe.
Most handles over here have a bend in the handle.. over your end they are straight..
@@themowerman Yep, one can really one-hand it when mowing.
i have a mountfield wb140 petrol drive belt has snapped cant seem to find the right belt for it
eBay mate
How about putting a video together on how you sell your mowers once you have fixed them? Great repair.
Yeah I could do that..
The jets are not big enough, due to restrict emissions, always need reaming, most small engines have the same problem,all the best to you all
Yeah. It's a common problem.. still she's running now..
My RS100 has an issue where it starts and then engine stops after a few seconds. I’ve cleaned the carb as described in the video (less the micro drills), and have even stripped and cleaned in an ultrasonic tank with carb cleaner. The carb and jets look spotless, yet the engine issue persists.
The only problem I can potentially see is the slow speed jet, which is not blocked but the hole seems very small. So small not even a sewing needle will enter it. Is this normal?
If not the slow speed jet, I’m lost for ideas and welcome any suggestions of what to look at next.
Thanks
Yeah.. get a set of micro drills 0.3 to 1.2. and use the smallest one.. 0.3 then drill it out.. 50 Pcs Micro Drill Bit Set Micro Drill Bits Tungsten Steel PCB Print Circuit Board Flute CNC Router Bits Shank for Rough Stone Jewelry Punching Engraving (0.3-1.2 mm) amzn.eu/d/iem6QwX
Excellent video Mick. I want to get a set of the micro round files that you use in the video but cannot find them anywhere. Do you have a link to them please? I can find the micro drill bits but not the other items.
Carb Cleaning Files amzn.to/3lH8ESx
@@themowerman Thanks for the info. I will order some.
The Quacast in the video were can you get spares parts if it
What the cylinder one?
Please tell me what diameter drill bit you used to drill out the main jet.
I can't remember off the top of my head..
@@themowerman Shame. The hole on mine looks to be about 0.5mm diameter. Any advice on how wide to make it? The mower was hunting quite badly. Or would it be better just to clean up the carburettor and try it without opening the hole up?
@@martinsastrophotography just use some file has tip cleaners to open it up a tad
What's the tool called you using after drilling out the jet roughly 18 minutes in
Gas top
files..
Great video as usual Mick. Do you have an amazon or ebay link to those mini files please?
Just look them up on eBay as micro drill bits
Micks Mowers nice one! I was searching under mini drill bits without luck. Thanks again
Mrs P. Likes your protective footwear. I have to tease you. WD40 hmmm It must work (I guess) Those crimps are sure great eh!!!
Bruce
What size are you I will send you a pair lol
@@themowerman I have a pair. LOL
@@BrucesShop not Mick's Mowers ones you don't lol
If you approached WD40 Company you could get channel sponsorship and a few free cans!
That would be lovely.. put a good word in for me
Is the filter in these movers coated in oil. Thanks
No mate ..
@@themowerman Thanks for that. Was told that foam filters should have oil on them.
@@stuarthenderson1348 yes I have seen this too. I have never done it
Having problems with one hunting, will give micro drill a go. Cheers
@@stuarthenderson1348 yeah and rim out they main jet.. don't be afraid of opening it up..
Hi Mick, Do you have any links on on which micro drill bits and the file sets you also use please? Can't seem to find any of the file sets

Brilliant cheers Mick blimey your not still working on them mowers at this time of the morning 😂
@@Griffter1966 always working mate
@@themowerman fair play to you.. I'm on the vampire shift as well 4 more nights to go then I'm off for 2 weeks and I'll try and get my mountfield hp414 to stop bloody surging.
Well......still being a mare to start. New Plug ( thanks for the info), New Fuel Hose (and flowing), New Prime Bulb, Carb Stripped and cleaned (inc all jets), New RS100 Ignition Coil fitted, New filter. Full Compression but still no bl**dy spark AAAAARGH 😡
Check the switch
@@themowerman Thank Mick, do you mean Micro-Switch ? as no other switch on machine only long pull in handle at the top.
@@kevinhendon yes mate .. you will need to take the recoil off.. and when you operate the dead man's handle follow the cable down to the engine.. as you open and close the handle you will see the micro switch.. it needs to be pressed against it..
what the heck is a torch plug? that's Air style prime bulb, they are the worse have to prime that bulb 10-12 times to pull air into carb to force gas.
Cheap plugs available on e-bay, Amazon etc. Like Mick says, only good for breaking windows!
@@topconker2909 Ahhh so real ultra fake not the brand name fake. THX
Top Conker I’ve been using Torch plugs for around 10 years now, I’m a gardener and use them in most of my tools and never had a problem with them. I read up and apparently Torch spark plugs started up in 1961, so they aren’t one of these new Chinese companies, I personally rate the 10 out of 10, I’ve had more issues with NGK and champion plugs over the years.
Your light is good can see your blue eyes lol
You making eyes at me Edward
@@themowerman o yeah , i be making eyes with u tonight when your live lol😆😁
So, you're not a fan of torch plugs bruv? Haha
Nope.. not on my watch lol
