    That's an interesting unit. Never worked on a DR before. If I ever see one of those Intek engines on something I am grabbing it. That engine is a beast! Very interesting indeed. Seems that compression thing you are talking about is a problem in 2 of the IC engines I have here in the older black Murray Riding Mowers. Both need the cam shafts replaced for that compression release problem. Not looking forward to doing those repairs, but if I want to keep using those mowers I got to fix them. Great video Bernie! Thanks for showing that engine! Cheers! 🍻

    I like the old governor set up also. Agreed that all small engines should have that. If something ain't broke, don't fix it, but it's probably because it is cheaper in some way for them to do it different. I have a Craftsman that even with two different carburetor changes, it will still surge for about 20 seconds at start up-then it goes away. I just keep using it... LOL. The Huskee looks like a good quality mower to use. Great save on that one Bernie! Cheers! 🍻

    I've yet to have a frame that has made it to the third engine. I'm on my second one with my Troy-Bilt TB 210 I use in my business. I would certainly put engine 3 on that one if it makes it there again. Those older Craftsmans and MTD mowers do have some good deck stamps. These newer ones rust right out it seems.

    Runs great! Funny, I’m working on two of the identical machines right now. On one of them the blade split in half and flung apart while the guy was using it - he didn’t hit anything, it just had a hairline crack right in the middle and one half flew off.

    I like your flywheel removal trick there. Those Husqvarna mowers are great when you got them dialed in. I see one every now and then. They usually have some kind of carburetor or fuel issue. Last one I fixed had a completely packed air box. Once I cleaned the carburetor and changed the air filter, it started first pull like yours here.

    About two years ago I had that similar issue with my 2008 Craftsman 550 Series Silver Edition, but I never got rid of it anyhow. All I did is put an easy fix on it with a solid thick wood screw into the small hole next to the nut to tightly fasten with a truck body panel clip and locked them tightly with a zip tie and it worked nicely without any issue. The solid wood screw can also manage holding both the weight of the handle and the engine-mounted deck all together. All that do-it-yourself work I did on my mower really paid off.😊
