As a "computer guy" who never took the time when I was younger to learn from my uncles and cousins.... this is not only invaluable, but so cool. I see how you troubleshoot and go about it, but the real lessons are probably in what's not in the video. Lol this was so cool and I really wish I could do this... I keep paying people to fix my shit and it sucks.
Keep watching and if you find time learn by doing. Pull a mower off the curb that someone discarded. Best way to learn is through trial and error. Good luck, Cheers!
Seeing your lawn in back, unless ya'll put sod in ya'll won't be needing her. Good work on your project and will mow for someone for a while. Good job.
@Max AC It was so nice to see one of those running as dad had one and back when he bought it brand new it was his pride and joy to be able to cut the acres around the house. Hours and hours days and days he would keep the grass looking so good. We lost dad 4 yrs ago now and recently I looked to kind of restore his old tractor and found the deck beyond repair….yours was excellent by comparison. I’m so hoping to find one for it. Till then I want to get it running well so mom has something to pull her little trailer with all her flowers for planting and taking away the weeds and old plants that have expired. It’s something of dad’s to help keep those memories alive throughout those summer days. His was almost identical except for the 5 speed….his was hydromatic and that function still works. Thanks for this repair video that brings back so many memories. 🥺😌🙂
I know this video is a year old but that spring that broke when you removed the carb isn't the governor return spring. Its purpose is to maintain the slack in the throttle linkage in one direction. If it's allowed to have play in the linkage you get the surging. Just saying. Good video.
We’ll, it’s 315am and I’m finally sitting down with a cold beer beside the wood stove in the garage. I think I’ve watched your vid about 3x now. Have a 1999 John Deere Sabre 15.538 gear. Came with the house we bought this fall. Mower sat for about 4 years, last owner said they couldn’t get it running. It was going to be my winter project, so I drained the oil. It was all fuel. Put in about 2 gallons of oil flushing the gas out over the last week and a half. Bloody float was stuck and gravity did the rest. New fuel filter and installed an inline fuel shut off. As I was making my way to the carb I realized it was hydrolocked. Broke everything down. Cleaned the carb. New oil. New fuel. Once I broke it loose she fired up first try. I am mechanically illiterate, can’t tell you how much I appreciate the video. The motor and carb are near identical to yours. Made for easy going. Cheers.
Great job. The only thing that I owuld have done was paint the dash and the panel between your legs. That rust looked bad alongside all the nice work you did polishing everything else.
Good video on bringing that mower back to life:-) I am in the process of doing the same thing with a JD Sx85 rider that sat outside for at least 6yrs anyway. Paid $50 for it and having to put close to $350 into with a newish seat being $85 of that but it’s all in good fun and personal entertainment in bringing these neglected old machines back to life:-)
Just got a Craftsman LT2000 for $60 because the guy said when he would engage the blades the engine would quit. It has no rust and looks to be in very good shape so I bought it. My plan was to keep it around for parts as I already own 2 working craftsmans and they're newer. However, I started to tinker with this one and upon trying to start it the motor would crank but not start. I removed and cleaned the carburetor which solved the starting issue then I checked the safety switch connection under the seat....of course it was unplugged. I connected it and now I've got a mower that runs perfectly for $60 and about an hour of my time. Great vid!
That Corinthian leather deserves only the finest Saskatchewan Sealskin bindings! Thanks for the information, my neighbor just hauled an identical looking tractor out to the curb for scrap which I grabbed, only mine is a Craftsman Kohler Command 15hp but it seems to be the same B&S engine only a different top cover.
I'd try replacing the valve stem in that original left front riding lawn mower tire you took off of it for A spare. It's most likely the valve is broken.,or weather crack from setting up so long in the yard. They call that weather checked .,weathered checked. Secret to you wheel wet.& Aromor all tire spray.
Just A quick fee tip truck to ya on that part of it all. I'd try it out to see for yourself on that part of it all to. You half to get all of the ethanol &water out of the container though for it to work right for sure. That's we're alot of people mess up when trying to do that process of separation of the the ethanol &water from the gasoline fuels to.
If it's completely dead, the charger won't see it. Jump battery with a drill battery for a few seconds. It'll see it then. Good luck, I actually have that mower and a spare like it that i got from an old farmer nearby. Mines a beast, but that one's a pile of crap Motor runs now, but rear end is shredded and brakes safety switch is shot. Mine has a V twin in it. 20hp, the old one has a 21hp in it. Great vid! Have fun.....
That surging at the end of the video is probably the idle jet. You mentioned it as “stop” for the throttle earlier in the video while you were cleaning the carb. The idle jet if clogged or dirty will cause that surging at idle speeds.
Sometimes the Idle jet will cause surging and I have ran into that problem before but in this case I forgot to reattach the governor return spring. Thanks for the comment . Cheers!
two suggestions, get yourself a ultrasonic cleaner for cleaning the carbs and also a dremel tool with a brass wire brush for cleaning electronic contacts on the ignition switches.
A very good video with lots of content. I love your methodical approach of inspecting and testing before you tried to fire it up. That takes a lot of patience. Just to nit-pick a bit, I think you should have replaced the seat for the carb needle. That said, it sure ran well when you were finished. Good work!
Well you know how it goes. If you don't inspect and test beforehand you end up doing it afterwards. Takes the guessing out of it. Thanks for the comment. Cheers!
Your as obsessed with making everything back to original as I am (gas guage). Even though we can just look at the side of the tank or remove the cap to see the gas level we still like to see if we can fix the fuel guage.🤣😂
Need to adjust your carburetor a bit but it’s kinda choppy open up your air fuel mixture in a little bit there, so it smooth out back it out till it almost dies and then ride it again
Check the rim bead seal around the tire to it could've came loose from away from the the rim cause of bad Leaking weather checked valve stem is all. Over the years of usage. Then he couldn't get it to move due to that. So it just sat there instead.
If it's the top end and the piston is froze up try using Marvel mystery oil, read the directions, carefully!!it's loosened up heads on my Briggs and Stratton go cart engines and worked on my HONDA 110 ATC engine and other motors also,,mostly small engine repair!!
How are you can tell if he’s got the red metal shroud and there’s another one so I’m gonna blackmail shroud, but there really are the most durable into the rings are made their industrial commercial. That means they have a steel cylinder sleeve which means they’ll hold it for more hours by longshot. I’ve got one in in
Jocelyn, how you don’t really need if you’ve got one of those bolts from a push mower with the hole in it sometimes they sell them to you with the bullshit but that’s Illinois. You don’t have to use event that you can always cut the end off of it if it goes out
@@MaxAC that’s awesome i bet he was glade u got it working great job on restoring it I wanna do something like this but afraid I’ll lose those tiny pieces
@@juggalosquad5027 thanks. It was real fun. You ought to pick up a small mower or edger for free and practice working on it. And if you lose something it's not a big deal.
The ethanol free gasoline burns slower.& Cleaner witch lasts longer to than the regular ethanol gasoline does due to less consumption of need for massive amounts and times.
Gasoline octane rating determines the rate of burn. Ethanol burns cleaner than non ethanol gasoline. Ethanol is an alcohol and it absorbs water. Left to sit for extended periods the water and ethanol separate and causes gelling and varnish buildup which doesn’t occur with non ethanol gas.
Just a small suggestion for the next time possibly if it matters but when sharpening your blades make sure to keep quenching it with water to not ruin the heat treating of the blade potentially making it softer or more brittle. Also you might want to take a close look at your paste wax applicator before using it on your truck or just replace it at this point to prevent anything scratching your clear coat. Just something to think about otherwise great video on the process of restoring that lawnmower.

Personally, I love craftsman products. Not a fan of those Brigs motors. Don't know why they moved from those nice tecumseh motors. Those were work horse quality running engines.
Craftsman never built mowers, they were rebranded mowers built by MTD and AYP. AYP bought out the Husqvarna mower line in the 90’s and the mower Max repaired was the same as a Husqvarna LTH130. The Husqvarna was a bit more upscale with a hydrostatic transaxle, electric PTO and a Kohler Command CV15 engine. I had one inherited from my late father. Ran for 28 years before it finally quit. They don’t build the new ones like the old beasts from years ago.
Those deck blade pulleys have grease sert for them.,or should have that is anyways. If not. I'd put some on the the top by predrilling .& Tapping threads for grease sert then.
Many of those have grease fittings, but use sealed bearings. I take the spindles apart and replace the bearings. Much cheaper than a whole new spindle. If they have a grease fitting can take one seal off the bearings, but it takes a lot of grease to fill the spindle housing
Have you a French about having to wait on the mowers? Doing all is steering but by someone who can't start the. Gears can still do it you still put the gear in backup and forge that's all
Little info for you ppl, if a small engine is locked up (not like this one that was not locked) take out spark plug,squirt some engine flush in the hole, let it sat 5 mins then try to start with spark plug out, keep turning it till it blows all the motor flush out the plug hole, put plug back in and fire it up, yr good to go, works everytime,enjoy.
I'll tell you how you can DIY your own ethanol free gasoline at home to o really cheap for your lawn equipment.&boat motors to if you have A boat to. Id buy one of those 10 gallon kerosene containers put in Bottom bleeder valve from the hardware store sealed up good with thread sealer the yellow.,or blue type. Then buy your fuel as gasoline from the store.& Octane booster to put back in to the fuel afterwards you'll need it to. Fill that kerosene container up with gasoline fuel. Next add A 1/2 of cup of water tighten the cap back on it good. Shake it up really good.& Rock it then let set for at 45 minutes. The ethanol will separate from the gas to the bottom of the container. I recommend overnight.,or 2 days for full time process best results outcome. Drain out the water& ethanol out until you see fuel only from the top off of the water ethanol mixtures that has separated itself. Then all you do is add the octane booster shake it up we'll.& Can add in sea foam for more added protection.& Longer shelve life time span to.
The Stihl 2 cycle oil/2 stroke oil is not A very good brand to use. Although people have to their own opinions. On that part of it all to. Each to their own on that aswell to. Hopefully & maybe this can help you out with saving fuel.& Money 💰 to possibly aswell.
whatever happened to the lawnmowers that just had mow and go for high speed? simple belt design, engine that didn't have a compression relieve inside the engine that was designed to fail? wish i never got rid of my DynoMax

You need to drive belt
Also I see you pull the pedal back with your foot A new spring on that would help to
55 seconds in and i'm going to say it's the exhaust valve out of adjustment.
You can take the blades off and the bearings out and fill the housings all the grease
They have a ROD between the back wheels at the back that shifts it to neutral.....

Tubes in the back tires as much cheaper than new tire and it’ll hold longer than a new
New brgings and paint deck will look good and sale better 😊😊😊
Why don't you just remove the carb, then twist it to remove the connecting rods - so much easier!

Bet the cable is frozen up to, because leaving them in weather will do it
I don't know about that brand but on my John deer there is a lever on the back you can pull out to put it in free wheel mode so you can just push it
I tried that on this one but it turned out to be the belt was rusted to the crank pulley.

It was so nice to see one of those running as dad had one and back when he bought it brand new it was his pride and joy to be able to cut the acres around the house.

Thanks for this repair video that brings back so many memories. 🥺😌🙂
Personally, I love craftsman products. Not a fan of those Brigs motors. Don't know why they moved from those nice tecumseh motors. Those were work horse quality running engines.
Craftsman never built mowers, they were rebranded mowers built by MTD and AYP. AYP bought out the Husqvarna mower line in the 90’s and the mower Max repaired was the same as a Husqvarna LTH130. The Husqvarna was a bit more upscale with a hydrostatic transaxle, electric PTO and a Kohler Command CV15 engine. I had one inherited from my late father. Ran for 28 years before it finally quit. They don’t build the new ones like the old beasts from years ago.
Tractors got the best in Briggs ever made a single cylinder a lot better than his new ones in the end tag motors they’re called
Also see if the transmission brake is locked up
Nicely done! How much did you end up selling it for?
250 if I remember correctly
Those deck blade pulleys have grease sert for them.,or should have that is anyways. If not. I'd put some on the the top by predrilling .& Tapping threads for grease sert then.

Spark plug's almost never a problem. No need to waste time looking at at.
Its that "almost never" thing that will get ya. Besides its easier to lube up the cylinder and rings through the spark plug hole.
You are so lucky to have lichens, they won’t grow where there is air pollution.
Have you a French about having to wait on the mowers? Doing all is steering but by someone who can't start the. Gears can still do it you still put the gear in backup and forge that's all
It's the seat switch.
Cause it's burning up the ethanol.& Watery moisture out of the fuel witch makes fuel consumption increase to.
I like your shoes, what kind are they?
Something from the sale rack at Ross.
You know how to do it
U need to clean the rust off the magneto and flywheel if u want it to run to properly.
old wives tale. Rust on the magneto has no effect on anything.
It’s
Hunting you need to adjust the carburetor and the gas
Little info for you ppl, if a small engine is locked up (not like this one that was not locked) take out spark plug,squirt some engine flush in the hole, let it sat 5 mins then try to start with spark plug out, keep turning it till it blows all the motor flush out the plug hole, put plug back in and fire it up, yr good to go, works everytime,enjoy.
Thats great advise. Cheers!
you may want to clean that carb again.
motor seems to have some corrosion are you near salt water?
I wouldn't say Near... its about 4 blocks away. Lol Yes corrosion is a big problem here.
I have LT2000 with hydrastatic trans (automatic). wont roll or start. Is it because in gear possibly
Like this one it could be your belts are stuck in the pulleys. But it could be in gear.
Hydrostatic drive has a release mechanism on the back that must be released(pull out) to allow it to roll ‘free’
Or they don't premix their 2 cycle/2stroke oil& gasoline fuels right either due to not using A measuring container for that purpose.
I'll tell you how you can DIY your own ethanol free gasoline at home to o really cheap for your lawn equipment.&boat motors to if you have A boat to.
