Is .004 clearance the general rule for setting valves on most small OHV engines??? And the same for both valves? Other vids are always giving a range for clearance and its different for intake and exhaust. Thanks for your help!
Those access holes are genius. These customers are lucky to have you. Most places wouldnt even consider repairing that, they would just say you need a new head.
It's hard to warranty a head "fix", but if done right, you can accomplish a solid repair. I use Loctite 620, which is specifically formulated for applications such as this. Zip~
@@riceburner32 of course it does. The point is there are always options. If it works and it saves money why not fix it. Like Taryl says its just a lawnmower engine.
Locktite offers a high temp locker. It's 620 and it holds up to 382 degrees Fahrenheit. It's specifically designed to work with cylindrical press fit applications and I always use this in conjunction with a set screw and peening the surrounding aluminum. I've got engines out there that have over 600 hours on them after this repair. Thanks for showing another method. Zip~
I HAVE BEEN A SMALL ENGINE MECHANIC OVER 40 YEARS!!! WORKED AT DEALERS AS A MECHANIC OVER 25 YEARS AS A SMALL ENGINE MECHANIC. I OWN MY OWN LANDSCAPE COMPANY AND REPAIR ALL MY OWN MACHINES. THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS!!! I LEARN NEW STUFF FROM YOU DARYL ALL THE TIME. THANKS AGAIN!!!!
It’s great to see someone who fixes the existing part (I.e. the set screw method) instead of just dumping the customer’s money into a whole new head, or even a new valve guide. I like those access covers too.
I had one of those come in my shop last week but it wasn't for overheating. The bolt that holds the rocker mount to the head came loose and the mount turned. The pushrod fell out and bent. Got a used pushrod from a scrap kamasakee and he was back to mowin' in no time. Thanks for the great idea to fix a valve guide. WooHoo!!!!!!!!!!!!
Taryl thanks for your super-entertaining videos as well as super-educating. You've helped me immeasurably. Sometimes I just watch one of your videos for something I would never attempt (like this one) but I watch for the enjoyment and for learning how engines work. Gotta say I don't know how you put the thing back together with all them little pieces. When you disassemble anything all I see is a piece laid on the edge of the engine, another on a workbench behind some parts from another job, still others on the floor, and the heck knows where other parts are. But you git 'er all back together and running like new every damn time! Truly amazing!
I've read the comments, but I have to say it is very good to know about these methods since someday you may not be able to get the parts. Innovative fix, as a DYI guy there was no downside to fixing it this way, if it fails again you can always buy a new head.
Tim, Taryl, Mr.Dactal, etc. is both very entertaining and very informative. His repair solution for these small engines with backed out valve guides was great. Y'all (Dactal family) keep up the good work....have a great day. Roll Tide. God bless.
Another FREE informative and funny video. How can anyone dislike it? Watch some of the other guys videos on Sunday morning and there are 8-10 commercials to get through.
A couple of tricks we used to use to hold in valve guides in aluminum heads like that were to knurl the valve guide on the lathe, (knurling increases the OD of the guide slightly), then we would press it in place with green locktite. Rather than a set screw, on some engines we would drill an offset hold that just touched on the side of the valve guide and drive a roll pin in place. This was common on engines with valve guide bosses under the spring. On some race engines and aftermarket heads they would use a circlip or snap ring to back up the press fit on some valve guides. The circlip would retain a larger steel washer that protruded beneath the valve spring, and thus the valve spring pressure would help hold the valve guide in place. The steel washer or shim also prevented the valve spring from wearing into the aluminum head as well.
When I was in the RV business, I would save old but perfectly good and useful awning parts from jobs where customers bought a new awning. I can't tell you how many other customers I made happy by using those old parts to fix their old awnings. They had money for repairs but not to buy new. This was one of the ways I always had more work than I could handle.
Taryl you are the man! I always reference to your videos on any small engine repair job that I do I've done it since I was six years old my dad taught me everything I needed to know. However I still reference your videos to make sure that I'm still being guided the right way on doing things. I just got a riding mower Husqvarna for dirt cheap and pulled the valve covers off and discovered that one pushed rod was bent wasn't a bad bend however it was still on the rocker arm but I have valve guides that moved. Keep on what you doing y'all always meet me laugh you're my kind of people but I definitely can hang out with. Thank you for all you do.
Dear Tarryl, I have been fixing cars and small engines all my life and I thought I knew it all but I don`t know as much as you. Thanks Tarryl for all of your informative and entertaining vids. Kind regards, Paul from UK.
You could even hit a junkyard and find em for the low buck guys. I just stripped a 2003 vw golf and there is tons of em all over , lift the carpets and trunk carpets and have a peek.
Taryl you and your team are the greatest UA-cam channel out there, woke up early, made some coffee, turned on the TV, checked out UA-cam and low and behold another great video from you:) I was laughing so hard I blew coffee out my nose:) Thanks for the great videos, heck I’m even thinking of adopting one of those poor parts:) You made this Sunday morning great!
I have to say thank you Taryl you have saved me a ton of money with your how to videos. I've been watching now for over year and I have to say you sure know how to make them. Keep it up and thank you again.
I got so choked up about the used parts I almost could not watch, Keep up the great videos. You have helped me more than you know, fixed my son's engine with confidence after watching your videos. Replaced his cam shaft because his compression release was broken, Thank you so much, as my son and I agreed , : It's NOT THE SPACE SHUTTLE : Thanks again !!!!!
I did this same exact repair to nearly identical engone in a JD lawn tractor. I used the green loctite(bearing mount) as well as the set screw... turned out great. Thanks Taryl!
at 42:58 The harmonious Taryl yells match perfectly with the pitch of the engine. I suspect if we all did that it would add +70% horsepower to our engines. Great vid again. Stay gold.
Lol, loved the adopt a part. A few weeks ago, a friend of mine who works at Napa was cleaning out his dad's old mower shop. His dad had been in business since the late 60s and closed his shop in 1990 and he then unfortunately died of cancer in 1991. Steve gave me a big box of new old stock parts he found in his dad's shop. There were condensors for the old Briggs 8n series and points for 3.5 and 5 horse tecumsehs and even a new .010 piston and ring set for a late 70s lawnboy 2 stroke, I think a D series. I doubt I'll ever use them, as the engines they fit are long gone and I haven't seen any or worked on any for years, but I'm thinking of making a display showing pictures of the engines the parts fit and a description of what they were for, and put it up as a display. Kinda have it as a antique display.
Yes for sure guys are looking for those parts , Ebay would be your best place to sell them or join some old mower sites where these fellows discuss all things about mowers and the like , I'm sure you will find some interest there.
Fascinating, innovative repair from some guy running his own biz in some nondescript town. Reminding me of the American ingenuity that once made our country great; and sadly, an ingenuity, like the greatness, that has all but disappeared.
I started watching 1 of your video's... 3+ hrs later, I'm watching this one. You're some great entertainment and do some very great and informative video's !!! Taryl for President !!!
To retain the valve guide, consider using 2 set screws. This was done on old Cub Cadet mechanical PTOs, and I adopted it for commercial machinery I used to work on, which had a lot of flat belt pulleys affixed with set screws.
Great fix and idea, brilliant , thank you... Had loose valve guide problem, gave it to a shop and paid well... He told he made a new guide cause the hole was too big for original guide etc so i said ok... But 2 months later the same...engine and egsaust full with smoke .D so i watched your video, pulled out the guide and it was %100 not a new guide as the shop told me... And there was blue glue :) so... Today i bought green locktide, opened a hole behind, and the operation is over... Tomorrow i will bring the bike together, and i hope everything is perfect :) Thanks again for that brilliant idea
Taryl I have held the guide with arc welder ground and scratch the side with hacksaw blade for a rod very very quick like strikes . 3-4 times then press it in works on valve seats also . done it on a head with out pullig it . once very very tricky . to get in ther . . nice job Taryl as always Thank You.
One suggestion on the valve guide.....lay it in your vise jaws and use a very sharp chisel and lightly make splines around the guide. As you would say, "Don't get carried away". Rather than remove material with the grinder on the outside of the guide that helps hold it in, all is still there. You could use still use setscrew. Good job on the fix. I've been working on small (and large) engines most all my life and most times know what you're going to say before you say it. Lots of good advise on here. And lots of fun!!!
When using valve compressor as you say you can bend it due to collets jamming. Take initial tension and the tap valve end of compressor with soft hammer aluminium or bronze and it will pop the collets loose then wind in rest of the way as normal.. Love the show Tarly
Genius. This repair seems like it was dreamt up by an 8 year old. If only we could all be so bold with our repairs that we listen to our inner 8 year old.
Great channel. I just bought a zero turn with Kawasaki in my Snapper. I like to learn the weak sides to an engine to make it last longer. My John Deere 185 has a Kawasaki 17 hp and has never given me a bit of trouble, except normal wear and tear. Thanks
Ah HA! Great idea Taryl !! Inspection covers!!!!!! Great idea about the captured valve guide!!!!! I've been saving old parts too! You never know when they might be useful again! Great video!
Hi Taryl, you`re such a great guy !!! It`s really big fun for me watching your videos and I can learn a lot from you. The way you are fixing the engines is fantastic and you have so many good ideas, indeed. I also like your videos with Blademan and Throttle (in German: Blödmann und Trottel).
I really LIKE the idea of those inspection caps. I bought a used ZTR, and found the cooling fins completely clogged, but it wasn't fluffy. It was oil & dirt from leaky valve covers. Whatever the cause, I like the idea of being able to inspect those fins before every use.
This is a very interesting way to fix this. I had the same exact issue with my Briggs Intek engine. The guides within the cylinder head would move and break/bend rods. You can find this issue online, many people complaining. The only way to fix this seems that you have to replace the cylinder head. The other way is to use a punch and peen the aluminum around the guide.
Hey Taryl ... gunsmith supply houses (Brownell's & Midway) sell a super heat resistant version of LOCTITE known as ROCKSET. It is used to secure muzzle devices on guns, so you know it will withstand lots of heat. It's worth having on hand for repairs such as this.
I bet that guide would hold with 680 forever as the aluminum pulls so much heat out of it but it would be nice to have some extreme temperature compound
Taryl, I watch ur vidoze by the hour! a BIG thanks for you and camera crew and sound guys who make all the funny sounds to make an entertaining LEARNING video. U'l always get a thumbs up from me.
Great Video, I wish I found this a year ago. I tried a different fix where you peen the guide. That lasted about a year, and then I ended up getting a new head. Keep up the good work.
Rebuilt too many VW air cooled cyl heads in my time. Always drilled out old guides to remove and heated the head/cooled the new guide with a quick press in. Never came out. In this case, I would have the guide knurled along with heat head/cool guide press in. That guide pretty well fell in, wouldn't feel comfortable with the repair personally. Otherwise, great video as always, you are full of great information and instruction.
27:50 THANK YOU !!!!! this is the first UA-cam video ive ever seen where the valves were lapped correctly. Talk to the hand if you've ever used a drill to lap valves. 👎
Short story , when I was working for the Stihl Canada head office/ warehouse they had a total parts scrapping of all the Stihl saws and trimmers in the 90's that were classified as obsolete . We threw out all the parts for many models , 045 , 042 , 031 etc . Thousands of parts of every kind went in a dumpster and I recall thinking at the time that someday those parts will be missed. Here we are 25 years later and guys are restoring those old saws and would love to have those parts . Yeah , sad I know :(
Taryl, great video! I plan to sign up for your save a part program. I am working on an old McLane edger with a Briggs and Stratton L engine. Hope your cats and family are doing well. A 30 year old L- engine is almost broke in. Take care.
The idea of cutting some holes in the shroud was good. I didn't know you could just go out a buy some caps like that. They snap right in? That's great. I gotta work on my lawnmower. I been goofin' off.
They are some dainty push rods. As a owner of a FX730V I didnt know Kawasaki pushrods were so small 🤣. The FX has clean ports on them but great idea Taryl!!!

This is the difference from a real "mechanic" and a parts changer.
Most shops just would try and sell you a new mower...
@@Wayoutthere yup
Do they make new guides to press in
Old school
@@russlumley4974 No, Kawasaki doesn't sell the valve guides separately. You have to buy the entire head.

@@jz422 That looks like some good stuff, thanks for posting.
Rockset. Thanks.

I bet that guide would hold with 680 forever as the aluminum pulls so much heat out of it but it would be nice to have some extreme temperature compound
Thanks for sharing your EXPERIENCE, reminds me of the unorthodox things I've done years ago, (out of shear budget necessity)
You are a genius of the small engine.
Just the fix I need for my Murray Breaks and Scrappem’ valve guide. Thanks Taryl. BTW My old man use to say “Listen to what I mean, not what I say!”

It LOOKS LIKE YOU HAVE DID THAT BEFORE I FIND YOUR CHANNEL HILARIOUS BUT VERY INFORMATIVE KEEP UP THE COOL WORK
I am going to see if I can adapt this principal to a B&S 22 HP Intek engine. Great information and comical presentation. Love it!
Short story , when I was working for the Stihl Canada head office/ warehouse they had a total parts scrapping of all the Stihl saws and trimmers in the 90's that were classified as obsolete . We threw out all the parts for many models , 045 , 042 , 031 etc . Thousands of parts of every kind went in a dumpster and I recall thinking at the time that someday those parts will be missed. Here we are 25 years later and guys are restoring those old saws and would love to have those parts . Yeah , sad I know :(
Same here , but with the ssr chevy sport truck ...
Do these at times at the shop. Scratch them up.. loctite... send it. Never had any issues after.
that's really smart putting the caps there for visual inspection
Taryl is a genius!!
Use 2 set screws to lock it in the threaded hole. If there is room.
Taryl, great video! I plan to sign up for your save a part program. I am working on an old McLane edger with a Briggs and Stratton L engine. Hope your cats and family are doing well. A 30 year old L- engine is almost broke in. Take care.
Access holes are a very nice touch well done
It a goo d when taryl uploads
Best channel on youtube
The idea of cutting some holes in the shroud was good. I didn't know you could just go out a buy some caps like that. They snap right in? That's great. I gotta work on my lawnmower. I been goofin' off.
lol, you made my rainy day bright here Ontario Canada! Old school rules! RIP fluffy 2 :) Keep up the good work! Cheers from the great white north!
phenomenal video Taryl.
Woooooo! Woooooo! Wooooo! After the test fire it up. Holy crap.
After watching this. I’m taking my cover off and cleaning the cooling fins.
22:32 Groove is in the heart. and Taryl delivered.
I save everything it’s hard for me to throw anything out!
I do also but I can never find it when I need it.
JMC5 you’re in the same boat brotha
@@jmc5341 That's why I'm building a 12'x12' shed. It will be my own part store.
@@rverro8478 You'll fill that up quickly. 12 x12 meters would be a better starting point.
Considering how much you get for a freaking lawn mower down there, I'd keep everything too!
600-800 for a green lt1000 Craftsman?
Loco in the cabeza.
Man your the best in the game I really appreciate the help!
They are some dainty push rods. As a owner of a FX730V I didnt know Kawasaki pushrods were so small 🤣. The FX has clean ports on them but great idea Taryl!!!
