    What size are the crank pan bolts? I have a lost one

  • @whonnockboy
    @whonnockboy 8 месяцев назад +2

    That was great. I'm wondering though, would it not be a good idea to use some thread locker on the pan bolts?

    • @wallysworkin823
      @wallysworkin823  8 месяцев назад +2

      I have used thread locker in the past but still had the pans come loose. When the heads of the bolts break off it makes them very difficult to get out of the engine block with locktite also.

      @@wallysworkin823 Ahhh... that makes sense. So, if you don't mind maybe you can help me out. I bought a br600 for $50 "for parts", hence the reason for watching your tutorial. Tore it down as it was making the same kind of noise that was shown by Taryl Fixes All in his video, and I don't see any issues with the wrist pin. After disassembling it looks great with no scoring or anything. The piston itself has minimal scoring that JUST catches a finger nail, and the cylinder has even less. The inside looks like it was getting lots of oil, and the bearings seem to be in just as good of shape. Prior to teardown I did a compression check and it was almost identical to my other working br600. You mentioned something about carbon may get caught in the valves but I assume there would be compression issues. Could this be the problem? Confused backyard mechanic. Cheers.

    How do you check forsure that bearings are bad without taking them off they’re spinning freely barely side to side play my blower lost power so I took block off and everything seemed fine cylinder was good piston was moving freely clips and pin were good & timing I’m not sure what happened I had another one given to me and nothing seemed wrong but same thing happened to it & yes valves were adjusted on both to spect so that wasn’t the power loss.

    FANTASTIC video! Just purchased a gently used 4 yr old BR600, residential use ONLY from original owner. Runs & starts great, no leaks. He used canned 50:1 gas mix from HD. Can you please recommend any preventative maintenance to avoid the leaking pan issue? Am going to switch over to Stihl Ultra Synthetic & mix it myself. Any advice? Thank you.

      It happens sometimes. Stihl makes a “anti static wire” for blowers. Contact your local dealer.

    A 4 stroke with 2 stroke lubrication...
    What could possibly go wrong?
    People are lazy, people are cheap. That engine demands expensive Stihl supplied oil, of course it will fail.
    For the price, it is an expensive turd.
