- This ride on lawn mower is rusty and rotten. It has been left outside for years. The engine won't turn over and the whole thing looks like it's ready to be scrapped. Will it run?
Thank you to my Patrons

Lightweight is good and what did I use it for it’s a lawnmower ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTPN04aT-Qdjr_KS3ql7ng8wnU3wwsCqk also recommend Yes it is lightweight so hence not as robust as our old one. But if you take care it does the job really well.
I know all these videos take much time with work, buying parts editing and so forth. I always get excited when I see a new video. Great work!!
I don’t understand why people leave expensive equipment sitting outside like that. I always store my equipment under cover. My mowers have never been outside overnight or in the rain.
Types of people to buy a new car every year and while continuing to pay loans
just lazy
Don’t have room in Garage. I have 4 Tractors that all live outdoors. I have up off the ground on either a trailer or pallets. I also have covers for each of them. Also 2 of my Tractors get used during the winter. One for blowing snow and the other for plowing the snow. I have a Cab for the one with the Blower on it.
@@whammond511 I have 4 lawn tractors that all run, a Husqvarna, Craftsman and 2 John deeres. They sit protected under structures and are in excellent condition since I take care of my equipment.
@@wolfblitz6609 You’re the perfect example of what I was saying except you at least have a roof over your equipment. I only have waterproof covers over 4 of my now 5 tractors. I have 3 Wheel Horse 520Hs, one 314-8 WH and my latest is a Wheel Horse NoName w/16 HP.
Very impressive. When you gave us the first look at this machine my thought was it had been outside for months (read that to mean years) and everything was locked solid. Your willingness to give it a chance to live again is commendable, and your open-mindednesses paid off. You truly know your stuff!
Huh...I was just thinking earlier that a Machinery Restorer video would be nice. And whaddya know, you've posted one...now, if you'll excuse me - time to actually watch it!
YESS!! I love watching this kinda of mower get restored! please do more of these super basic riding mower restores ! Also please show more video of the restored machinery working xoxo
I like how meticulous you are when doing repairs. I feel like everything is being done top notch.
I love watching these videos! So relaxing and informative. Hope you consider a full resto now that you know it runs and drives well.
Great job bringing this mower back to life. You've brought it back this far, so how about a more thorough renovation? Good demonstration of knowledge and skill. Thank you.
I say he fully Mad Maxes it. Get it working, but make it look like a rust bucket about to fall apart
"Excuse you!" ROFLMFAO!
"Shade tree do it your-selfer" who doesn't want to spend any money on the right parts to fix something YEAH JUST PUT SILICONE ON EVERYTHING. You won't find any of that on anything I sell Out of my Shop. Fuel solinoid is gummed up it should pop right back out withoout any resistance
This channel just showed up on my recommended and I heard the voice... I was like "Wait.... Dagerwin.. Is that you?" Then I saw the state of the tractor. It must be Virtual Daggerwin. No way Daggerwin would ride something like that.
I owned a Simplicity/Agco riding mower here in the US with one of those B&S Intek V-Twin engines. It was dead-solid reliable and extremely easy to maintain. The only issue I ever had was the fuel pump. There is a vent on the back side that tends to get clogged with dust and debris. I would be mowing along just fine and then it would start to act like it was running out of fuel. It would stay running if I applied the choke but even then it would eventually expire. After leaving it to sit for a while it would restart and run like nothing had happened, until it soon repeated the issue. After pulling the pump off and cleaning the vent with carburetor cleaner, it never gave anymore trouble. Excellent video, as always. Keep up the great work, and cheers!
Lies
@@DansERVvids lies? How so, may I ask?
@@garfield89dude32 I’ve had buddy’s have inteks and they said they were shit
@@DansERVvids Hmm, that's news to me. I had mine for 15 years and put over 300 hours on it with only the dirty vent on the back of the fuel pump giving it an issue. I maintained it regularly, used synthetic oil and wix filters. I had a 38" deck I mowed 1.5 acres with and a 36" front mount snowblower I used during the winters. It was a great machine, maybe I was lucky? Or your buddies weren't? Who knows?
Vent on the fuel pump?!
You know what they say, Hayters gonna Hayte
My dad always used to say, "Pound Wise and Penny Foolish". The guys who buy these machines are quite happy to spend the money at sale. But, as soon as anything goes wrong (after sales), then they do not want to spend the money to have their equipment properly serviced.
Farmers suck.
🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨
Was wondering when this channel would bring out the Hayters.
😂
Daggerwin, it is very impressive that you know how to do all this work! I love all of your videos, keep up the great work!!
I like the 'will it run' videos as much as your restorations. It must be quite a feeling of accomplishment to get that old musty engine working again.
I laughed when you apologized to the intake manifolds for saying they’re less important😂 awesome video as always dude
Oh, my. I thought the whining sound the engine made was you struggling to turn the flywheel… Ha! Fantastic job as usual.
Too funny haha
The engine looks so much simpler after working on a 4.5l john deere commonrail engine!
Whats the 4.5 john deere in
Pop cylinder head vacuum clean all the garbage off it pull the cylinder head vacuum clean it but the cylinder head back on Marvel Mystery Oil good old American oil at Briggs & Stratton will run vacuum whatever you can suck-up
is there a story behind the "good thing theres no mice" because i would love to know that story.
Excellent work! Love these restoration/ restore videos and your commentary really completes it 👍
It's called a whole compression but the oils going to go right past the valve guide again dummy because the valve itself is wore out. Not the valve guide it's going to blow oil again should have changed the $2.50 valve
I'm sorry that's pipe sealer Permatex for sale pipe joint compound dealer do not use white Teflon on fuel fittings does not resist Teflon pipe joint compound from Permatex or you can use form a gasket will work till on the threads it looks like babyshit
This is daggerwin from his farming simulator channel.
i smell a new project : building a racing mower : that engine is perfect for that 😂
They don't know what they're doing they're assuming that's why they're using it not cuz they can't afford it adjust like everybody using white Teflon on fuel fittings repeat do not use white Teflon on fuel fittings I see that all the time it does not resist fuel white Teflon you got to use form a gasket or fight sealer come on guys wake up
Great to see a new video. Always wonder what do you do with your restored and rebuilt engines? Do you sell them or keep for projects that have a better condition mower of the same make/model? Nice work Daggerwin
Val C valve guide a totally different from each other the Bell guide let's that oil by when it's wore out but it's not the valve guide the valve stem itself is wore out the length of it and receded the valve for the compression is one thing but it's going to blow oil again this couldn't be right back where it started
American-made Briggs & Stratton it will run forever they can look really bad and rundown you just do a little cleaning at some clean oil and some clean gas it will run
Excellent job; enjoyable to watch. Although I'm writing this in May 2022, there doesn't seem to be a production date for the video--did I miss it? Can these parts still be available? Thanks for a good presentation, everything was well-covered. Cheers.
why are you bringing it inside instead of at least power washing or using a hose on it first. getting rid of all the grime and dirt on it. so you dont get everything else dirty. plus cleaning it first would make things easier to see what might be broken.
Nice rescue! I really enjoyed this one. I'd like to see this refitted with a few replacement parts (seat, gas tank, etc) to really get it "back on the road."
Come on now I'm taking Aragon blow all that crap off that engine for you pop that valve cover off come on little common sense
Ok this just wrong. Mi wife say she could listen to you speak all day. Not me. You.
If you go to use a sealer against gasoline Forma gasket is the best repeat form a gasket Permatex company makes it silicone does not resist transmission fluid gasoline or diesel
Wirewheel everything receipt the valves and the compression up it'll be good to go for a couple years
Thanks for sharing your videos with all of us. I ENJOY EVERY ONE!!!!
I thoroughly enjoy these rebuild / restore videos. It gets me motivated to get outside and fix something. Fix it whether it needs it or not.
If it ain't broke, fix it till it is!
Fix it to death!
@@rpavlik1 Sometimes I'll take something apart just to see what makes it work.
Replace them you got a couple more thousands thicker and valves are only like $2 a piece come on
That's the same engine that was on my dad's old Huskee lawnmower from the early 2000s. That engine will not die, no matter what you throw at it. Sadly, he retired the lawnmower sometime in 2013-2014 because of a snapped rear axle. He didn't want to fool with replacing it. The lawnmower had a good run for over 10 years. He now has a Toro zero turn mower with a 753 cc Kawasaki twin.
That's a heck of a powerplant for a lawn mower!
I sometimes wonder if the money spent on gaskets etc is justified by the value of the machine but this a great example of a very usable machine given a second life.
A most enjoyable experience with a very knowledgeable guide taking us through the process … and in the quiet periods we could even enjoy the sounds of the sparrows nearby!
Soo...hear me out...
...Lawn Mower Racing...
I’ll never have the need for a ride on mower but I find your videos absolutely fascinating and it always a good day when a new video pops up!
Great rescue...maybe a future full restoration 🙂! Thanks for your indepth breakdown of the repair. Love your videos, and looking forward to your future projects. Thanks!
You really should if you have not already done so reach out to Briggs & Stratton as they would probably hook you up with parts. You do an amazing job with their equipment.
Great job bringing the dead back to life!
@1:02:09 lol headless horseman
Great and informative diagnosis for all to learn from...very nicely videoed too. Well done Sir!
Fantastic video, these mowers were brilliant back in the day and still are now. Looking forward for the next video.
Awesome as always Dag, now you have a solid engine and drive train to transplant. I have a v-twin engine similar to that one, and it’s been going 14+ years with no issues. And will be starting another mowing season soon.
Foot hydro is nice for plowing snow and stuff if you get any.
Valve guide not valve stem a lot of play in the valve guide not valve stem
IT was Great to see it all done so slowly and carefully so we can comprehend what you were doing. 100% BEST VIDEO I EVER SAW. ON SMALL ENGINE REPAIR !!! 😁 🇺🇸
Another great video! Never doubted you would get it running again👍👍👍
Hang on you said a leaking inlet valve? Yet the seats on both looked perfect to me. Had you overlooked the tappet adjustment? I've seen where it's a common ocurrance on some of the OHV engines. Looking at the honing marks on those cylinders it's not done many hours , but poor maintainance could point to valve gaps . Finally just an observation, normally you strip an engine in minutes due to fast forwarding, but yet you have us sitting there watching you hoover cobwebs from an engine, very poorly in real time. We all know how to use a vacuum cleaner. In my eyes you don't tackle the most important things to check first. Are you a mechanic, or hobbyist? To me you talk too posh to be a mechanic 😂😂😂😂😂 , more a white collar worker? If I'm wrong I apologise. I do like the channel, because its what I used to do in my spare time, being a retired ex engineer .
Fantastic!! I love your videos. I have a couple projects I need to start on as well.
Just as good practice - when you're putting an oring on something like at 48:35, take a pick or a small screwdriver and get the shaft between the oring and the part it's on, then go around a few times to make sure the oring isn't rolled in on itself.
Great Briggs engine,very reliable. Should be a fine mesh screen beneath the pleated air filter.
You mean the foam cleaner that has a mesh screen on the back ? Yeah people usually never put the prefilters in anything wich essentially clogged and ruins the cartridge filter
@@hunter7476
Not foam, under the paper filter in the front, it looks like a piece of window screen.
@@jeffvickers9390 yeah I got it now
Would love to see a full restoration on this one Daggs, Hayter make some great kit, its a shame to see it so neglected!
The reason the exhaust valve has no seal is because it is not exposed to vacuum like the intake.
What a result - Another machine saved from the scrap heap! 👏
I would not call this a waste of time! I had fun watching and you had fun doing it and if we're not careful, we might learn something too.
Brilliant job! I like that you diagnosed and only fixed what needed to be fixed in order to make it run. That little motor sounds great! I for one do like the narration. For me it would be like going to school with earplugs in. 😄 Looking forward to your next endeavor and thank you for sharing! 🙂
I like narration too, but things are over explained imo. I guess it's better than no explanation at all.
New to this channel, and I love the videos. Ty for explains things to us non mechanically inclined people. Lol
That's good that you're doing it by the book pull the cylinder head wire wheel everything turn the engine around get the valves open and wire wheel very carefully behind the valve seats without pulling the valves out get all the carbon off the Piston clean the cylinder head put it back together it will run and a compressional pop up to I mean the proper thing to do is to reseat the valves but it don't have a lot of hours on it you'll get away with just wire wheel in it Briggs & Stratton all the way USA
All videos take time even the editing, but if you need parts for certain bits then your stuck, plus you have a life and are not nor should beholden to your viewers, some think they are due videos every X amount of time.
Over here we do have some great B&S stockists but not as where they are made, many videos you've had to order from America and is getting more expensive and more time to do so.
I prefer your style of restoration/Will it run as a complete, not 10 minutes here 15 there when parts, external works are waiting on. Please keep up the great work and post when you can, when there is a big gap between it means a bigger treat! Take care and stay safe, kind regards,Mike.
I follow you from Brazil, congratulations for the content!
Thank you very much!
Many years ago I use to work on aircraft radial engines both Pratt & Whitney and Wright. The little carburetor looks very much like the very large Stromberg Carlson units on some of those engines using the same basic design.
Looks like a double barrel Nikki carburetor. Always buy or make your own gaskets and o-rings vs using stupid amounts of silicone.
Solid engine. Ideally want 20% or less on leak down test.
I like the will it run videos just as much as your restorations. I had someone give me a servistar riding mower yesterday that hasn't run in 7 years that has a 18hp briggs and stratton opposed twin on it. I had it running in less than an hour after i got home from the hardware store where i buy my parts from
I gotta tell ya, I really enjoy your videos. The indepth explanation on how to rebuild these mowers is absolutely amazing. Keep up the great work!!
Great watching.
Enjoy watching these restorations. Love to get into it myself one day
I like the quality of work you do.
Whoever abused the rtv silicone in the past to fix it should have someone else to do the job the right way like you did.
Nice job and saved a good engine.
That looks like a North American, Murray.
I find it interesting how Europe, has their own brand names of machines, but still use Briggs & Stratton and Kohler engines.
I find it's always cylinder number two or the right hand cylinder that has issues with these engines.
the lesson to take away from this is that it's hard to kill a briggs. years of neglect? check. water in the cylinder? check. feeling unwanted and unloved? check. but show it a little love and it purrs like a kitten in your lap.
I found your channel a week or so back, and I have watched most of your videos. I’m curious about the fact Briggs & Stratton engines appear to be pretty much all you work on…..Is that the common make in the U.K., or?? I live in the U.S., in Iowa. I enjoy your mechanical videos. I’m currently rebuilding a Kohler K241 engine for my Cub Cadet 100 garden tractor.
A Very enjoyable episode.. well done, and thank you for sharing
It's good to see that you got the broken screws out of the flywheel fan. Those looked iffy. I had a similar engine on a rider mower, and had to replace the ring gear as the original was plastic. The new one was metal.
Result! Nice one, little tip if your not already aware, it's a good practice to give the valves a couple of light taps with a hammer on the tappet end when re assembling it helps seat the keepers, its a pain in the rear if one inadvertently drops out.
Can't believe I have only just come across this channel, been subbed to your other one for yonks! Cracking job all the best to you
I love this more than anything because of what is really important and that this mower has been given a second life because of the love time and energy put into it, and what is very important to me is that we all should be doing the same in respect of recycling. Awesome video thanks very much 🍻🍻
24:16 stomach growling
I have a hate er mower same brand
That engine is not bad at all. I saw some smoke when you first started it, but that may have been assembly lube burning off. Anyway, I think that little tractor would make a decent candidate for restoration too. I mean, it's filthy underneath, but other than that, it's in pretty good shape.
This is the first time I've seen an overhead valve small engine taken apart & repaired. Very interesting. It seems like a lot of engine for such a small mower, but who ever complained about too much horsepower?
Nice! I got my lawn mower fixed also last day i think. or 2 days ago yea 2 days ago. Got the motor running aigan so thats nice. The trans seems to be working so all im gotta do is pump up all wheels and lets go for a spin! So excited. And im only 13 Hold that in mind. I checked the engine i cleaned the carb. And got it back running even tho it was actually sezed. "Not from the spark coil or so" It was actually stuck and got it free aigan. it only took me about 5 days getting the engine done! And it was standing 5 years not used. So yea Lets hope imma go for a spin with it sometime soon
If you look closely at some of the screwheads, you can see a dimple in one of the corners of the plus. This means they are not Phillips heads, but JIS heads. Japan industrial standards, because of course they have to be different
This is a fascinating reminder that even the simplest of gasoline powered tools are breathtakingly complicated compare to battery electric. I wonder if electric landscaping equipment will last longer, because people are not willing to simply leave electrical things outside for a decade.
Thanks for the vid, great diagnostics and rebuilding. Said it on another vid but your really talented. Definitely prefer hearing you rather than the text captions.
I'm very interested to see you work on that tiny tractor you had in a previous video again 😊
and another great job done, sounded really good well done
Hayters gonna hayte 😂😂
WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE IT OUTSIDE AND PRESSURE WASH IT BEFORE YOU STARTED, SO YOUR WORKING WITH A CLEAN MACHINE.
that silicon seal that got inside the carburator and around the float is probably the last repair they did on this engine i can't imagine the engine would of run like that and it probably leaked a lot because you know silicon isn't fuel resistant
The blue spike shaped object @55:58 makes the entire setup look not unlike a scale model as it looks not unlike a pen. Perspective is a fun thing.
What did you expect from the test ride that you installed the rear wing to keep it on the track?
:-D
Great job, thx a lot for showing!
:-D
U should think abot a cheap or desent 3/8 battery nut gun it would save some time and effort compared to the ratchet
