- Can we Rescue this Cub Cadet with Briggs and Stratton that is blowing oil out of the fuel pump, has a bad head gasket and other issues. We show how to check the compression release on the cam shaft by only removing the valve cover. Also we show how easy it is to adjust the valves. You will also learn a couple basics on using a Leak Down Tester.
We show how easy it is for you, the DIY gal or guy, to diagnose and repair a blown head gasket on most any engine. They are all basically the same. Briggs and Stratton, Kawasaki, Kohler etc.
This video shows step by step everything you need to know to repair your small engine.
We hope this will save you money and make the job easier for you.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and watch our video.

Thank you for taking the time to make a very informative video. You make the best videos on RUclips.
Ordering a steel one is exactly what I did for my Craftsman lawn tractor. Works fine.
Your accent and humor is great, love watching.
Thank you! 😃
I had a good friend. His name was Jerry Mooreman. We called him Fig. He would pass for your identical twin. No lie. I enjoy your videos. Just need to make more of them. Hahaha 😆
Excellent video 👍, you are the man T-bone 🤩
I love it when you bring them back to life.
You da man! Enjoy all your knowledge!
Time to make some good money off that gift. Thanks for the video

Muchas Gracias mi amigo
I guessed right T-Bone, classic. Between you, martin butler and Micks Mowers my knowledge of these engines is awesome, I pay my neighbour to cut my lawn but if their mower fails I will definitely have a go, hell I will even video it brother. Great to see your subscribers flying up, you deserve it brother. Very clever diagnostic method T-Bone. Hey Mrs T ❤️. Wow! I didn’t know the head gasket could be identified via that number. A very entertaining video T-Bone, that is sweet now.
Learn something with each video

Thank you for watching and commenting my friend
Good to see you again. Great video.
Hey, thanks!
Highly informative vids. Very well explained and filmed, no steps missed! Thanks!
Ats a good un there ol-buddy an instant RUclips classic 👌
Thanks Rooster.
Good thorough video as always :-) The only thing I can think of that would add those little piston indentations is a carb butterfly screw that came loose and bounced around until it passed through to the exhaust muffler and got trapped in there. My piston looked the same way when I did my head gasket. With my muffler off, I picked it up a shook it around and you could hear that little screw in there. I also hear the screw rattle around in muffler when I throttle down.
Very nice job T-Bone, she's running good now for sure. 👍
Tell Mrs T-Bone we said hey please sir. 👋
Will do. Thanks for watching my friend.
Anytime brother
I like the Cub Cadets a lot better with the white hood on yellow instead of being all yellow. My 2000ish MTD Garden Tractor when I purchase any parts usually always has MTD/Cub Cadet within the parts description. I just wish that it had the cast front steering axle assembly instead of the sheet metal looking front steering axle assembly.
Top Tip: Simple Green isn't alum safe but they make HD PRO which is. Their Aircraft cleaners are incredible.
I had a toro timemaster 8.75 series briggs engine come in for a no start condition. I have never had this problem before, so I wanted to share the problem.
OK here is what I found, and what had happend. Tried to start it, no good, did a spark test, now here is where it gets interesting, the spark plug wouldn't spark in the head or resting on the head, but it would on the block, weird, ok long testing short, turned out the head gasket was so blown, and used with a blown head gasket so long, the head had so much oil between it and the block it had become oil soaked so bad it lost ground around the head bolts, and between both sides of the head gasket, it lost total spark, so cleaned it, cleaned the bolts, new head gasket, adjusted, and it started right up, I had never had that issue in 40 years + of doing small engines, just goes to show you can teach an old dog new tricks..... Great video BTW.
Awesome, good diagnosis. I haven't ran into one doing that. I will surly keep that in mind. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Nice job of troubleshooting! Thanks for sharing!
Glad I ran across your content! Thank you!

Good information
Free is great 😊
You hit the nail on the head by troubleshooting the issue, great video and thanks for sharing! As always very detailed and informative!
Thanks for watching!
Good video I am looking at doing this job soon
Enjoyed the video!!
Thank you
Good Info Video!
Hello young lady.
Interesting damage to the piston. I know some of the twins had issues with screws coming loose in the carb and getting sucked into the combustion chamber but didn't think the singles had that issue.
Correct. I'm going to remove the carburetor to check that. Thanks for watching my friend.
@petertoth Yes, that is exactly what happened. I replaced the throttle shaft and butterfly with a good used one due to wear from missing screw. Yep I also put some never come off juice (locktite) on the screws
Best to use 222 lock tight on those screws in carb
Yes, they did
I was just thinking of The sump gasket was the cause of the oil blow by oh well I guess wrong 🤣😂
Head gasket
Very common with theses engines
Paused video at1.23 . mower was overturned or too much engine oil flowing over into thefuel line.
That is a Great comment my friend. What you just said is something I should have mentioned in the video. Fuel line, actually I think you meant pulse line to fuel pump. You are correct, the things you mentioned can definitely cause this same issue. Now you can continue watching the video and see what I found wrong with it. BTW, you are the only one, so far, who has commented without "cheating" LOL. Email us and we will gladly send you a Free sticker for your toolbox, mower etc., if you would like one. Thank you so much for watching and commenting. Our email can be found on our Channel page in the About section.
Ugh.. on my 3rd one love my hustler mower but become way to good at tearing them down for this reason..
The fuel pump was clogged up with oil. Did you clean it or replace it?
I just cleaned it. I've done a ton of these and never had a problem.
Good stuff you got here. Looks like heat issues so why don't folks make a rig that'll funnel cool air through the louvers in the hood right into the cooling air intake screen on the motor and stop letting the motor recirculate all that hot air it's making under the hood and shove it out the bottom where it belongs? We had an 85 model Craftsman with an 11 horse flathead that had one. I've got an opposed piston Vanguard in an LT-1000 that I had to make better with one. I'm fixing to get another LT-1000 for a spare with a 16 horse Briggs overhead valve that IF it don't have one, it WILL! I make them out of foam pipe insulation and camper top adhesive backed foam strips. Anything to seal off a path from the cool outside air to the motor. What do you thing, T? I feel a subscribing coming on and I'm a hillbilly tried and true so expect anything!
He's working on a 2003 cub
I been working on small engines 30 years there always room to no different things keep up the good work
Blown head gasket,all the way around
Hey Mrs. T. How you doing?
Hey girl
11:07 👋
Love the help and video. I have the EXACT model and engine#. with almost the same issue. Except my intake was bent. I did replace it with a steel rod. So, I put a head gasket in it and did a carb clean out and now it starts and runs great. Thanks for the guidance.
1 issue. The throttle cable does nothing, It moves and the little white square moves back and forth and it will surge but will not stay at a high or medium idle other than if I manually do it on the carb. The throttle linkage makes the the carb butterfly valve hard or easy depending on fast or slow but it does not move.
What doe you think. Bad spring or replace it?
Do I use this same procedure for a v-twin motor? I have an exmark that’s severely smoking from oil and then it shuts down.
Raley. I have the LT1050. Oil leaking. Seems to be coming drom behind the oil filter housing. Could that also be a head gasket OR is there a gasket behind the filter housing? Thank you for the video!
Blown head hasket
T bone, I have an L head briggs and stratton engine I've been having problems with, I've rebuilt it twice now trying to sort this problem. Problem is, the starter won't turn it over, I've tried other starters and batteries with the same result, take out the plug and it will swing over no problem. It has no compression release feature. The valve settings call for 6 and 8. To turn it by hand it gets really tight just before the exhaust valve opens, and this is where it stops everytime I try to turn it with the starter. I've even used 2 head gaskets and still won't turn it. If I set the exhaust valve to 4 do you think this will fix my problem. I could put a spot of weld on the stem to build it up enough to redo it.
how much would this cost taking it to a shop?
What brand of hoist it that and how is it attached
It's just a cheap Badland winch from Harbor Freight. I mounted it to the rafters.
Hey young lady. How are you doing today?
My t1200 will jus die after 20 minutes of mowing. I dont get it
Seems people just hate to change oil and filter
No way will they grease it for sure
Put a Kohler 7000 series engine in and problem solved 👍🏻
Hi good video Thanks Ed Loretto Ontario Canada ...PS . i would have flipped the push rods
Hi you all
Hey hey there
Hey girl
