PowerSmart Mower Cable Replacement (DB2194SH) Self-Propelled Lawn Mower - EASY
After fighting with my recently acquired PowerSmart lawn mower, I figured this quick video might help someone out.
Due to where the drive cable attaches, I thought I was going to have to remove the whole rear plastic that attaches to the mower deck, but I found an easier way.
Pop your spark plug wire off (hidden under the red top cover), remove your blade, remove the plastics underneath, and two screws that hold the rear axle in and you’ll have yourself just enough room to install the new cable.
Here’s a link to the replacement part for the DB2194SH, which is a two in one drive and engine cable:

$500 Neglected Yamaha Bear Tracker 250 ATV Resurrected - Way Too Much Work! Making Huge Trade Deal
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.4 месяца назад
While in some training, a few of my friends and I took it upon ourselves to cross state lines for this hunk of junk. I didn't quite realize just how bad it was! Was it worth the effort? After countless hours chasing down worn out front end parts, fighting with the fuel system, snapping off bolts, and restoring plastics and other components, it turns profitable! Any guesses what's next?

Do the heavier wheels and tires affect the braking?
@@allenw969 not substantially, in my opinion! And the wheels aren’t heavier because they’re the same as stock.
So helpful! Thank you ❤
Thanks for the video. This will help me for sure!
Is that a stock hood scoop or did you add it, asking since I'm considering it
@@mattfnonig6403 factory. They’re not functional hahaha
Thanks bro i like your style of video making and advice. I just got mine overfilled to the TOP by someone. I didn't know and tried starting it like 5 times. It would start then die out then oil started pouring out of the carburetor 😮 Gonna see if i can save it with your advice😂😅
@@ramirovillafrancajr4199 I appreciate that. Thanks for watching. Best of luck and tell me how it goes
Thanks!! I hope this fixes the problem. Idk why I figured it needed so much oil but I filled it up like a gas tank. Whoops!
@@Itscoltonmartin good luck. Thanks for watching
What if I have oil coming out the carburetor
so in order to run the stock rims, you had to use a 1/4" shim spacer and then a 1.5" spacer? Is that just to get the look you wanted?
@@bryanfontaine9627 negative, in order to run stock wheels with the Fabtech 6” lift, I had to use at a minimum, a 1/4 wheel shim. In order to get the look I wanted, I removed the 1/4” wheel shim and installed 1.5” hubcentric wheel spacers. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching.
@@backcountrybuilds it makes more sense now. Thank you!
@@backcountrybuilds one more question. Did you buy 4 spacers or 2. I really like this look. Never mind. They’re sold in sets and I’ll need 2 sets.
Can I wash my air filter? We tipped ours on its side yesterday and it’s got a ton of smoke and now filter has oil on it too.
@@maureenkosmicki5102 you might be able to wash it with soap and water, but let it dry out in the sun until it’s completely dry. Might be worth the $10 or whatever for a new air filter. Best of luck! Thanks for watching.
I'm restoring a K model teapot right now.
@@125southernnh2 hell yeah. Good luck
Thank you for your advice I did what you suggested and it worked. You just saved me from spending a couple hundred dollars on a new machine.
@@ramongarcia4352 awesome! Thanks for watching. Appreciate the feedback.
I'm currently lifting my 2019 Ram classic 6 inches . I can't wait to see her when she's done.
@@johnbaker2060 is it the yellow one in your profile pic? That’s gonna be sweet. My first vehicle was a lifted yellow wrangler TJ, so that color has a special place in my heart. Best of luck! Send me some photos on instagram when it’s done.
I just found a lawnmower in the trash a few days ago with a backwards blade and they thought the crankshaft was bent lol 😂
@@scottdunn4506 I love that. Good snag! Thanks for watching.
Watched a lot of videos the last two days but I kept coming back to yours. I love the look, the reliability and low maintenance aspect. I love my factory wheels. You just hit all the important aspects. Thanks man
@@TheManInTheRing thanks, means a lot. I appreciate the comment.
This was very helpful! Thank you . I'll be trying this tomorrow. I'll come back and leave another review. Hopefully, I didn't do too much damage when I overfilled my mower with oil.
@@katrenahunter1750 best of luck. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
@backcountrybuilds will do! Thank You!
I used to have mine straight piped but the tickets weren’t worth it😂 it’s a cool first car but I’m going to sell mine when I find a good deal on a newer Mustang hopefully
I buy parts from Partzilla.
I've got a 2002 I bought new an I figured out over the years it pays to use genuine Yamaha parts. They cost more but there worth it in the long run.
@@jamescannon4917 that’s for sure. I learned that lesson with Hondas early on!
Yup ..I agree….because you know you going to have to wrench it sooner than later…😳
@@barry8458 oh yeah… check out my other video of it - carb clean, belt exploded, cracked exhaust, blown tire, etc Hahahha. Still a blast. Thanks for watching!
@@backcountrybuilds …it’s all gud when u can wrench it yourself 👍🏼…BTW..I’ve bought a used Honda….all I can say is ..” lucky I can weld “….lol
Buds, get a bench, I hate seeing people work off the floor. My back hurts just watching this. Lol
@@nickcentrone1679 hahaha yes sir… I’ve got a big bench now! Thanks for watching.
Nice machine but can am far superior
@@feltdoctor gotta pay to play though. Do have to say I’ve never disliked a Can Am I’ve ridden hahaha. Thanks for watching!
I've ridden a b force for the day , fun machine
@@mikefrommaine8638 I rode one in Alaska a few years back and swore I’d own one. Definitely not disappointed!
My brother has that four wheeler vin matching and even the redneck hitch
What exhaust set up is that bro?
Stock headers, no cats, true dual straight pipes to MBRP tips! Thanks for watching.
My mustang came straight piped, and my neighbors don’t seem to mind but I constantly feel it’s just too loud for the people around me and that actively stops me from enjoying it. My wife absolutely loves it straight piped and is resisting me putting mufflers back on it but some times I really want to.
@@Gkitchens1 I feel that. When I got my truck, I put a nasty Flowmaster muffler on it. After about 50k miles I ended up putting the stock exhaust back on for reasons you identified. Thanks for watching!
And get a MSD distributor with spark plugs MSD
Opted to go with Holley Terminator setup

I’ll do you one better… ripped the junky 80s small block out and a 6.0L LQ4 is going in this place. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the information! I just ordered the part and will be watching this video again when replacing!

You got the tick yet ?
@@victorortega2718 oh yeah. She joined the party around 80k miles… hahahaha. Thanks for watching.
@backcountrybuilds damn man hate to hear it I had exhaust leak fix it ... but now I keep hearing a tick I think maybe lifters now you ever fix it ?
@@victorortega2718 this is the second 5.7 Hemi I’ve owned and the last one had the same issue. Exhaust headers bolts prone to snapping off inside the block. Same thing happened to this truck! Not urgent but definitely annoying hahaha
@backcountrybuilds yeah man I love the truck but dammit 😫 lol
Very nice, my brother in Law had one, was alot of fun
Picked up one of them myself. Got an 09 m8 hcr. Glad to see they rip good
@@akgamer8466 oh hell yeah. Have fun and ride safe
Such a BEAUTIFUL car!!!🫡
Thanks for watching!
Nice s197👍
Thanks man. She’s a 50 footer for sure, but definitely fun haha
Got a 2017 Ram 1500 3.6 V6 with 33k miles (was trying to get out of a car with a lot of problems) what kind of lift do you recommend to fit on 35s? (I’m new to this)
A lot of guys are running Rough Country. Word on the street is they’re increasing quality recently but are still on the cheaper side if I’m not mistaken. Obviously I went with the Fabtech kit which is kinda bougee up there with BDS and all that. Depends on what you’re looking to do with it, but I’ve had really good luck quality wise with mine… but I sure paid for it hahaha. Best of luck, man!
@@backcountrybuilds ya. I want to put 35s on it but I’m not sure what the right tires are for my truck just yet and how to know what I should choose
@@taylorsampson5434 what a lot of guys do, including me, is when you’re first starting out instead of going for the big lift kit right of the hit, try out a leveling kit. Rough country sells a pretty inexpensive 2.5” or 2.0” leveling kit, which will allow you to fit 33s and have them look right. I know you said you’re looking for 35s, which I’d be the first guy to tell you to go for it, but maybe especially with the V6 it wouldn’t be a bad idea to get some additional clearance for 33s with the leveling kit, try out some nice 33x12.5xR20s and you won’t hate yourself trying to move some heavy 35s with the V6. Then down the road if you want to go bigger, you can upgrade from there. A lot of people sell their used 33s on marketplace and Craigslist too. I think it’d be worth it because it’s safest to buy new tires, but here’s some good brands: Nitto, BFGoodrich, Toyo, Goodyear. Also check out customoffsets website, you should be able to put your truck into their website and see what it would look like with different wheel/tire combos. Hope this helps!
I got a 2013 Premium 5.0 for 18,000$ with 100,000 miles one of my dream cars 😍
What an absolute steal. The 4.6L kept me out of trouble… what color did you end up with?
Nice dude.. I got my 2011 gt/cs I think i was 16,600 with 86k miles love the car to death but man I miss the hell out my 07 gt I had that got totaled 2 years ago

Mustangs are the noise makers of the car world. Nice little car though
Thanks! Definitely trouble…
I got a 2013 5.0 noise and I’ll take you to grapple bees
Sounds and looks so good
Thanks man
@@backcountrybuilds hang on you only paid $12,500 for this? WHAT?!
Clean bro!! I’m trying to pick up a c6 this year just looking for that perfect one to pull the trigger
Be patient! Love me a C6… my mom actually has a C5 since I was a kid hahaa. I usually buy cars/Jeeps in stock form and put a ton of money into making them my own… turned out this GT CS was a turnkey version of the setup I was looking for. Best of luck!
@@backcountrybuilds oh snap a diamond in the ruff good find brother🤙🏻
How is maintenance and reliability?
Maintenance is not bad. Annoying to get the jack under a lowered car… gotta drive it up on blocks. Other than that, it’s like working on a loud Crown Vic.

Sound is AMAZING 😮😮😮
I agree. Thanks for watching!
Lmao that's the exact amount i spent on my supercharged 2007 mustang gt-cs!
Daaaaang. How many miles?
Clean set up, sounds nice
Thanks!
Great video! I recently picked up a 2000 RM125 and I am definitely running rich. Lots of spooge. I am trying to lean it out and was wondering if loosening my air screw would help? Loosening it more would bring more air to my knowledge but was trying to see how much to loosen it? I'm in the midwest and it's been quite hot this summer. Any recommendations on number of turns?
Hi, thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed! I’d first try doing some research on injection oil ratios. I’ve always run 32:1, which is pretty rich, but I’d rather have some spooge than a smoked engine! Best of luck.
@@backcountrybuilds I run Amsoil Dominator at 32:1! Bottle recommendation is 50:1 while Suzuki recommends 32:1. Maybe less oil would help spooge?
@@Shooobe it’s a 2smoker, let her spooge!
@@backcountrybuilds you’re right lol. I’ll stop worrying about it. Thanks for the help!
Love it when you cover the speed
No speeding on this channel. That would be illegal. Thanks for watching!
Hej, what kind of exhaust muffler is this, it's sounds great 😮
Vance & Hines 1 into 2. Thanks for watching!
It would be worth more to go back stock
Not shopping for resale value! This project isn’t a flip by any means. Thanks for watching!
@@backcountrybuilds being a 138 car if you go back stock even without the original engine you would be able to recoup and money you spent and a fair amount of the labor. If it was a 69 year car then that would be a different story. Anyway have fun
