    Thanks for the video. I just removed the carb. from a Troy-Built with a BS 17.5HP 5002VV family engine. As I was sitting there in the pole barn think I should be video taping what I am doing so I could put it back with out a cup of screws left over! So Thank You very much for the insurance video.

    Good video for those still using gasoline for fuel. I had my 17.5 hp Briggs Intek engine professionally converted over to propane. Best thing I ever did for my mower which is an eleven year old Yard Machine 42 inch cut. I have about 68 hours on the engine running on propane and the engine looks like new because propane leaves no residue of any kind on the motor or any other place. Starts and runs very well. No more gas for me!!

      I used an outfit called Carb-Turbo in Minnesota and with the propane regulator, hoses and the adapterfor the inlet for the propane it was around $150.00. Then I had to mount the 20 lb propane tank on the back of mower. So they just happened to have a heavy duty bracket that fits the 20 or 30 lb tanks and is awesome and cost an additional $80.00 and worth every penny. Easy to adapt to the mower using a couple of angle iron sections. My mower had the holes already stamped in the frame between the rear wheels. If you google Carb-Turbo you will find it easily. These guys really know their stuff about conversions of all types and sizes of engines. Propane regulators for engines are rated by horse power. I used a Garretson T-60 rated for up to 40 horse power and seems to be a good choice.If you decide to convert to propane you will ask yourself, like I did, what took me so long. It is a no brainer as far as I am concerned.I had a mobile mower repair man come out to the house to replace all three belts that were 10 years old and starting to slip a lot. So after he got the belts on he had to test drive the mower. When I heard the mower running I went out to look. When he shut the mower off he said that was the coolest thing ever; his first propane powered mower he had worked on. He gave it a thumbs up.

    I have that same B&S tool, but it's not very strong; I've bent it on the first use trying to remove an emulsification tube. Best find or make a special screwdriver that barely fits this bore, but will be stronger. I also have a #2 flat blade screwdriver bit, a long one, that i use with a 1/4" nutdriver, that works well. You just don't want to scrape away at the sides of the bore if you can avoid it.
    Keep the B&S tool for lighter work or reassembly torque.

I'm guessing if you've decided to change a float, then you've nothing to lose by trying...

That piece on the solenoid that you were pushing on does not move a freely on mines. Would that cause my rider to act like that or the carburetor.

    @Jeff's Little Engine Service - would like to start by re juvenate of old vid with a bump up. Next, I focus on this vid because of engine. Which you know and is exact engine I have on a rider. Although my issue differs alot. I have spent years on my issue in looking and got no place. I have posted to YT and many groups and oddly I get nothing. I am here to ask for input and thoughts on all please. This is a bit long and that is due to respect to all that see. Vs saying my mower is this issue and nothing else to go by. Mower info is- Yard Machines 2008. # 13RN772GO29. Not PTO electric. Engine- Briggs I/C 17.5hp. Issue- stalls and attempts to die with blades ON *AFTER* clutch/brake pressed. That is ONLY when I touch or press pedal down. Keep pedal down and it will kill in few sec. Attempts to kill and at time in doing it backfires etc and bog power down till kill unless release pedal. History of mower- Brought used few years ago. New carb from Briggs direct. New gas line, spark plug, filters and tires. New blades, bearings and so on deck wise. All new MTD orig belts. 91 oct- no eth gas is all I use. Mower looks new enough and taken care of now. Haul done by me on parts etc. All wires look new and not hacked up in black tube etc. Motor pretty much shines and not beat to hell. Connects cleaned with DeoxIT and prongs look new. Mods done- I removed the wire to switch for reverse when blades on. I did this at day one when got mower. No issue there on that subject. Here is what took place when I brought after my haul. I ran mower for two years and not one issue. Ran smooth and great while mowing. Other summer I was mowing and the issue started. Now is a new year and mowed twice with same issue. Looking like ass to everyone as my mower stalls in forward or rev when mowing. So last week I thought maybe the brake/clutch switch under pedal. I ordered a Rotary and replaced. Same issue after and not solved. Any input where to look? Also would a coil cause any of the stuff I said? Even when mower runs smooth cutting long as pedal is not touched... Thanks for the look as I cont to mow looking like ass lol. ISSUE- mower wants to stall and kill when brake/clutch is touched or pressed. ONLY with blades on. Blades OFF and runs great when use of pedal. Switch replaced with new Rotary under pedal. Issue still same. Side note- Oddly I inspected and see no wires or the like to ground anything out. Least to my view. I have not been under engine hood though since day one to clean wheel and coil.

    I have always wondered about heating the whole to expand the metal.
    Doesn't that technically make the hole smaller. You're expanding the metal smaller hole. Seems to work but I've always wondered about the physics of it. I don't think we're making the hole larger with heat. I think softening the metal is what's happening. Because physically cheat would make the hole smaller

    • @steel5791
      @steel5791 4 роки тому

      The hole expands because heating it makes the walls 'longer' as the atoms 'move against' each other and 'push'. Same principle as a wagon wheel rim, or heating the ring gear on an auto. As it cools it 'shrinks' and forms a tight mechanical bond.

      it sounds like the carburetor is flooding. It is a good idea to clean the gas tank to make sure no sediment can get into the carburetor.

    Ethanol eats BRASS and Cast metal. Rots plastics. New fuel is crap.
    The best tip I ever got with using new fuels is to Run 2 Stroke fuel/oil before you store it away.
    In the old days you just ran the engine out of fuel and you were good to go. Not anymore. Fumes will eat brass.

    My float valve is stuck tight closed and I can't remove the FLOAT. How can I get the float valve needle to come off it's seat without destroying the float. Ran great last year. Yes I did remove the float axle.

      It's stuck so the needle valve is most likely ruined. A new float is fairly inexpensive, maybe spray some carb. cleaner in there to try and loosen it.

      sounds like and obstruction inside the carburetor. Check that the main jet and all tiny nozzle holes are clear

    Hi, could someone please tell me what the adjustment would be on the jet on this exact kind of carburetor ? how many turns counterclockwise would I have to set it at ? only difference is my engine is a 15.5 HP ohv instead of a 16.5 like in the video. Any help much appreciated !

    It Seems since methanol was added to gasoline the White residue attacks every type of Carburetor On lawn and garden equipment and it keeps me busy cleaning Main jets, fuel bowls, floats and the fuel needle and seats. On 2 cycle Engines like Weedeaters And blowers the diaphragms are always crystalizing Because of methanol drying out the rubber o-ring and other parts... Now I find it much less aggravating to buy a complete Carburetor off Ebay or Amazon and put them on whatever lawn and garden equipment that's having Carburetor Issues Because they are so many different sellers having endless Amounts of them available and with free shipping makes it easier to deal with and get back to working with the Machines

      @JeffsLittleEngineService  5 років тому +1

      yes replacing the brass seat is necessary sometimes. It is a non adjustable float. Thank you for the passing grade. :)
