  • In "The Phone Call", Taryl goes over the proper ways to make an aftermarket Walbro carb he bought off the interscreen, work on this 17.5 HP Briggs & Stratton engine. Taryl will go over what you'll need to do in order to make this carb work. Prior to and after the repair, local customer, Michael, has a hard time mustering up the courage to call in his Toro mower for repair. Watch how it all unfolds in another funny, yet informative how-to video from your pals at Grass Rats Garage! And as always, There's Your Dinner!!
    After a lengthy search, Taryl fan Jim found a direct Walbro replacement carb that requires no modification. Here's a link to it on eBay:

    OMG Thank you! I have been struggling with my Nikki carb for months. Rebuilt, generic replacement, put a manual choke on it, and I couldn't get it to stop surging. Bought a $15 set of jet drill bits on amazon and now it runs perfect! Thanks Teryl!

  • @TarylFixesAll
    @TarylFixesAll  4 года назад +62

    For those of you that didn't pay close attention to the video, you can clearly see the shafts are completely different. The choke and throttle shaft linkages hook up differently on the aftermarket carb (which you can clearly see in the video). That is because the aftermarket carbatrator is for a different engine.
    After a lengthy search a direct Walbro replacement carb was found. There’s a link to it in the description. You can still use this video as a way to troubleshoot how to make a carb work that isn’t the right one. Now There’s Yur Dinner!!

      @fair2middlin 4 года назад

      After slowing the video down, I can see that the shaft top plates, at least the throttles, point different directions. I am very glad you did the video because my Cub has the Nikki carbatrator.

      I was wondering if you have experienced the problems with the new ariens carburetor s. They constantly surge, mine has since day one. I think it is the side jet that has tiny port in it for EPA bs. If you have any fixes or info I would greatly appreciate it .

      @@PabloDiablo682 Now That Is Funny. Taryl seems to have alot of years of exp behind him. He also seems to have some research tools the average guy doesn't have. The fact is alot of these jobs a person could handle for oneself but most choose not to which clogs up shops at certain times of the year. I am actually afraid to advertise it brings all the wrong folks kinda like the keyboard cowboys only worse i gotta deal with their feeble brains and wallets in person.

    I had to fix a 1980's Craftsman edger with a Tecumseh 3hp engine with a diaphragm pump type carb that is unavailable in most places or to expensive to buy. I replaced it with a bowl type carb with the same choke and throttle plate set up as the old one. It was for a newer Tecumseh 3hp to 5hp engine and it worked great. Matching it up with the pictures on the innerscreen was the hard part. Thanks Taryl, good video.

  • @obfuscated3090
    @obfuscated3090 3 года назад +2

    Trick to accurately sizing bits is to use the smooth shank as a gauge. I drill jets by gripping the shank in visegrips then spinning the jet between thumb and forefinger, then after the bit breaks through slide the jet up and down a couple of times to deburr the hole. I've done this with motorcycle carb low speed jets since the 1980s and just now got into Briggs because I want more power from my mower. If you mix up your jet drills use a micrometer or the very handy Harbor Freight digital calipers. (They're accurate too, and let me leave my expensive Tesa and Mitutoyo in the machine shop.) Excellent video!

    I bought one of those POS , said it was for a 14-17 hp I was working on a Briggs 15.5. it ran almost as good as the first time you put the carb. back on. I kind of thought that it would have to be drilled out. But I do not have bits that small. Now I see you had to drill out for the butterflies. Kind of glad now I rebuilt the old one. I got 13.5 I will try this on. One mower I had came with the Nikki carb. it gave me Nothing but trouble. Had it cleaned and rebuilt. But it never ran right. As luck would have it I got an old blown engine with a Walbro carb. on it. So I rebuilt it and put it on and it worked.

Trouble is, stuff would almost be out of date by the time you got it in from supply so you would be lucky to use it for a couple of months. Just like tools that need calibrating. It's good today but at one second after midnight, forget about it or get wrote up. hehe.

The engine is a Kohler SV600 Courage 20HP. It ran terrible just like the mower in this video. The jet isn't removable so I just drilled it and it is running great now!

    Bought a cheap Amazon replacement carb to salvage a Sears/Briggs generator that had been submerged in flood water and sat for a year. Original carb was toast, but engine still rotated. Replacement carb ran too rich, but let me test engine for an hour to make sure it wasn't going to blow up before I spent more money on it. Bought correct OEM carb for $100 and it ran perfect. Generic carbs are okay, but aren't an exact match. I had a time constraint, Harvey was coming, so I shelled out for the OEM part. Otherwise, I would have experimented with drilling out air passages to bleed in more air. It's a generator, not the space shuttle, and only needs to run good at one RPM.

  • @robertoruiz7069
    @robertoruiz7069 4 года назад

    Hi taryl,you could try to buy a metric REAMER for 10.00 buck at mcmaster and ream the holes .measure your shaft with your dial calipers to get the exact size of the shaft.reamer come in straight cut and spiral {that's for holes that arn't solid all the way through.reamers come in sizes by .001. example 1/4 in = .250 ...so you can get .248 or 249 or oversize at 251 or 252 ect.
    you'll have less air leaking with the right fit. great vids.

    Hey Taryl, I always crack up watching your videos, I was hoping that maybe you had a video about another aftermarket carbatrator. This is on a 21 hp B&S that is surging and I really hate that it pops all the time. As with you the main jet on this one is too large for the drill bit set that I had purchased after watching this video. Can the low idle jet be this issue with this one that needs to be drilled out?? I am able to slightly increase the choke and it runs fine but then actually increases speed????
