Thank you for the shoutout! Great video as always - that has to be the biggest oil drain pan I have ever seen also, I still don’t understand how stale gas doesn’t smell horrific to you. Dealing with stale gas is the least enjoyable part of repairing engines to me!
I agree it smells rather awful, but not retching awful, LOL! Cheers Tom! ( That's actually a water heater drip pan, though with my frequent and epic BP moments, it does serve as a gigantic oil drain pan. Haha!)
As a youngster I was assigned the unenviable task of cutting our lawn with a 1950’s style reel push mower and catcher. Perhaps you can appreciate my elation at getting my hands on the most basic Lawnboy rotary 2 cycle mower. I started an unprofitable lawn mowing service by pricing my services too low just to get the job. I was very impressed with the durability and reliability of this mower. The only problem I had was the debris blocking of the wire mesh air filter. Never did disassemble it properly so only ran intermittently. Eventually the deck broke and that ended my career. I used to clean this reusable filter, sharpen the blade and lubricate the mower. It was so basic you had to rewind the rope manually after every unsuccessful pull. I was always amazed and delighted by the modern self propelled mowers with the auto rewind features!
I am amazed that the main jet actually came out. I have had my fair share of them that I just left in because it was just going to strip the jet. If you want one of those cable removal tools, let me know. I 3D print them, and in my tiredness of the purple filament I was almost done with, printed about 20 of them lol. More than happy to shoot one over to you if you like!
My compliments to you for your meticulous attention to detail that is completely understandable. Now I’ll see if I can return a self propelled Craftsman to life after being in storage for over 2 years.
@@haneyoakie14 Was never serviced since new. Engine would surge whilst not even cutting. Deep cleaned the carburetor and replaced gaskets. Now it runs smooth
There is a trend with your repair video. That trend being that you use OEM or quality parts. I have found that OEM parts just work. No poor quality control issues. Also, nice job on taking the time to clean the OEM carb. Some folks might replace it with cheap low quality no name parts. I have found that in general, the cleaned or rebuilt OEM carb with be of higher quality than a no name knock off. Nice job.
Oh wow! SUPER appreciation for you support of my channel. You ask great questions, and always have a unique perspective on so many of my topics. Cheers!
Do you mean the JIS screwdrivers I often mention? If so, I did a giveaway when I hit 1K subs and that was one of the giveaway prizes. More in depth info (ignore the giveaway parts): ruclips.net/video/3G1e3CrazgA/видео.html I appreciate you watching. Cheers!
Hey Stella. When i have those nuts that won't come off the recoil, i will try to tighten it first then try to loosen with impact gun. Doesn't work every time but probably 80% of the time. Might be worth a try. As always, great video with good commentary of exactly what you're doing.
I often do that, but the guy was chomping at the bit to pick up the mower, which as you can guess, he showed up 3 weeks later. Where is my ::rollingeyes:: emoji
Yep you gotta contact Brandon to get one of his cable removal tools works 100% in seconds. Don't you hate it when removing the recoil those studs come out instead of the nut loosening off? Seems like the previous person torqued the nuts down with an impact gun i think Nylock nuts with a washer work better never have this issue. 100% a super neglected mower and i think your right the guy picks them off the street gets you to fix them then resells them for a profit. What do you think? Nice job Stella you even got to use it to cut the lawn with it and with a little spit and polish and red spray paint on the faded recoil it would look like new.
I suspect the previous person didn't do sh** except leave it out in the rain. That cable was rusted solid at the bottom there. This came from the RotoHoe guy BTW. No telling what the real story is... I appreciate you watching. Cheers Mr Wayne!
If the carb bolts are installed in sequence with assembly then held up at slight angle it’s really easy to reinstall. The blower housing removed makes it even easier. Hondas are great mowers. Mine after many years of heavy use functions and appears as nearly new. It simply could not start easier or run better with just basic maintenance.
I agree, the older Hondas are well designed machines. The only complaint I see regularly (though not experienced myself) is the rocker arms on the valves tend to get bent out of shape, making adjust the valves on GCV 160-190 engines impossible without replacement. Thanks for watchin.
Excellent Stella, really good video, and it sounded really good ( you did say you liked using petrol to clean things down, but a bit expensive using new fuel 🤣🤣)
Great point! Though I'd feel guilty if a mower came back with fuel problems, even 1 year old ethanol-free. (The rest of that can went into my Pruis, LOL! Thanks for watching Nev!
Hi Stella, Love your videos and appreciate your vast knowledge of small engines. I really liked your yellow spark tester. Can you please let me know where I can get one? Thanks, John
Hi Stella, another great video. I just love your attention to detail. Where did you get your spark checker? It seems much easier to use than the standard kind. Can you provide a link? Keep up the good work.
It's a great tool, but don't have a good online distribution system. I wish I had a good link for you. It's best to Google "Trillium Spark Check'R" and find someone who actually has it in stock. Their website mentions AMZN, but it's not there. I appreciate you watching. Cheers!
Compressed air blowing on magnetic fly wheel and WD 40 all contacts and pickup coil they spark powerfully. New plug and air filter fresh quality oil and gas sharpened balanced blades clean fins and insure drive system ratcheting gear mechanical parts are correct and cables and belts in service order. Mine has seen so much use I replaced the four bald tires from trouble free service.
Those studs are a godsend. These carbs are such a pain to reassemble. Why not just leave them in and use nuts? I wanna give you a tip from my world of vintage Triumph motorcycles. I use this stuff called Hylomar M on almost all my gaskets. It usually allows the components to pull apart without damaging the gaskets. It also works good at having questionable gaskets reseal. Or often, no gasket at all.
Good call on the Hylomar. I use Hylomar Blue on my antique Lambretta rebuilds, and it comes in very handy if a bit of gasket material sticks or tears on this lawn/garden equip. Most of the commercial Hondas and some of the newer models do have studs. I think the airbox might need to be modified or swapped out to use studs to keep from warping the airbox. I appreciate you watching. Cheers!
hi at 5:03 you are using a bottle with brass connection to pour gas in intake. where did you bought that.. seems like it is available only in UK and Australia.. I see something in Amazon which is GEDORE 298-01 from amzon . like to see where u got it..
I had to get mine from ebay. The item I purchased was Pressol 06864 Graisseur avec Laiton Bac 125ml It shipped from UK. As of writing this, there seems to be two sellers that list this, one with crazy expensive shipping to US, and the other with more reasonable shipping. I did have a bit of trouble with one of the three I purchased (it was defective) and went in a few circles with the seller before they finally gave me a partial refund. Thanks for watching.

great video showing your expertise in small engines. thanks for sharing. lawnmower lady, what mower do you suggest as a replacement to these hondas as honda stops making them this sept. ?
That is a tough question. Lately my advice is to look for an older HRX (5-6 y.o. mower) Far superior machine. Parts will be available for a good while. I appreciate you watching.
Have you heard the news Honda has stopped sales for now because of the cam shaft problems with compression release plastic parts breaking Dealers can’t sale any now
@@TheLawnmowerLady I use the Dollar Twenty Five Tree equivalent, PineGlo and don’t really measure except by eyeball and color. My original HF ultrasonic died, I bought a Vevor one that I like. Then my daughters bought me another HF one for Father’s Day. I might just keep the new HF as a backup, I hate to take it back because it was from the kids.
Sub'd from Canada, great channel. I started with a couple Honda mower videos and I appreciate the break down and information. I have this similar mower but self propelled model/bagger.

Awesome, thank you! I don't have a specific video on that, but I have enough dead engines laying about, that would make a good video. There's some complicated math based on blade length to determine maximum safe blade velocity, but math is hard, LOL. I suspect 3200 is just fine. I appreciate you watching. Cheers!
Now, here’s a mystery….with such a poorly maintained mower, you wouldn’t assume that the owner took the time to clean it when putting it away, or taking it for repair. But there is not a blade of grass under the deck…..????? I definitively think he picked this up off the side of the road…..

Great video Stella!! I use 6m rod as well so much easier to assemble all the Honda paraphernalia!!.
