    I have a Mountfield RS100 stopped working flooding fuel everywhere. I was about to go and buy a new mower and came across a couple of your videos... decided to have a look at the mower before binning it and found the float in the carb was full of fuel.😲 New float cleaned everything put back together and now have a great working mower...👍 Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Brilliantly.

  • @paul_herts
    @paul_herts 3 роки тому +1

    I’ve replaced the diaphragm on my 500 series twice in two weeks with cheapie imports off eBay and it still surges - if anything it’s running worse. First one I could definitely see petrol coming out between the carb and tank, the second replacement I’m not 100% (I have real poor close up vision) but I think it’s the same. Thing is, one minute it’s running fine, the next it’s revving up and down. I tried the link for the genuine B&S diaphragm and it isn’t working. Could you post it again? And thanks for the videos, not looking to buy and sell just want to get my own mower running well but I am enjoying tinkering, even unsuccessfully - wouldn’t have the confidence to even try before 🤷🏻👍

    Very useful video. I inherited the same engine as the one you're servicing here. Have replaced the gasket and diaphragm, but still not having luck with running it. Any ideas what to check?
    When I prime the engine with petrol, it starts for 1-2 seconds, smokes like mad, and then it shuts off. As if it's not pulling in any fuel. Mower sat for a long time and oil seems to be everywhere, including leaking some where on the exhaust side. Wondering if oil got somewhere it shouldn't have and is now not allowing the fuel to travel into the engine?
