If this video helped you, please consider clicking on the THANKS button above 🙌 Here's the complete tune-up on this mower: ruclips.net/video/x4J5t_RBboM/видео.html
I have an almost Identical engine on my mower and I recently just bought A new carb but as a technician I like to fix parts before replace them. I see all the parts you found from the mfg but do you search on their website or is there a place you download the complete parts and assembly documents?
@@Echo3_ I do have access to B&S documentation, but generally I go to some major parts house (partstree, jackssmallengines, repairclinic, etc.) to get diagrams for all manufacturers. From there I look for who has it in stock at the best price point/delivery option. I'm partial to partstree as they have live stock qty on their website. They've never steered my wrong before. Thanks for watching.
@@TheLawnmowerLady awesome thank you so much. I have a mower with this same carb system but it has the primer bubble I replaced the carb and it wouldn`t start, then it started once and died and I noticed that governor choke spring has no tension but when I put something on to create tension still nothing so i`m kinda lost lol. back at it again tonight 😂😂
I have watched dozens of these carb rebuild videos and have been repairing my own equipment and vehicles for some 47 years now and this video gets an A+ for completeness. They may exist but I have yet to see a video that shows the removal of the throttle plate and choke plate AND the replacement of the small foam throttle plate and choke plate gaskets AS PART OF THE MAIN VIDEO. I have subscribed and gave a thumbs up!
Older video. But still not cost effective. A rebuild kit is just as expensive as an entirely new carburetor. Add in the cost to the "mechanic" to do it, and you could buy and entire new engine, lol. If doing it yourself, these older metal carbs can be rebuilt up to a certain point, but still easier and less expensive just to purchase a new carb. I will try to disassemble and clean etc, but if it looks too bad, I just buy a $10 carburetor.
@@outdoorwonderlust , just be aware that the $10 carbs are known by other video presenters to NOT work much of the time; it's a crap-shoot. In my case, I have an OEM Walbro carb that I bought a kit to rebuild off the Web for ~$3 and I'll do the job myself; it's easy.
Not only are your videos informative but your camera angles, lighting and clarity are AWESOME!! Thanks for taking all the time to set it up to grab the best angle to view the job. Had to subscribe because I could actually see what the heck you are doing and learn much. Thank You for a job, well many jobs well done. Your awesome and an excellent teacher.
I just want to thank you so much! u probably just saved me $150. SWF and I try and fix everything I can within reason. My troybilt wouldn't start and after I did everything on the video it started. Your the best! Kim
One of the best videos on this subject. I will review it when I rebuild my Quantum carburetor. I note that none of the videos show an ADJUSTABLE carb, like I have (1990 vintage from California). I assume this is the later UNadjustable unit fitted to save money and avoid user adjustments because of stupid emission laws.
I followed your steps, and replaced my 6.75 Briggs stratton Troy-bilt carburetor with a new one-- the mower started right up, and is almost like new! Wow! Thanks for the video! It really gave me the confidence to go through with this by myself! Great video! I will take the old carburetor, and try to refurbish it too .
Dear Lawnmower Lady, What a great instructional video. You certainly are a great instructor. No need for questions, your easy to follow and understand instructions answers every one. Thanks. Keith DK
VERY GOOD! Im a lifelong shade tree wrench, so I've been thru the process, but some of your tips and explanations were definitely helpful. George in NC
Very nice repair job and explanations along the way. The only recommendation is that you really should have cleaned everything up once you had it disassembled and the shroud off. Thanks again for an informative video.
I’ve watched quite a few video and I love the simplicity and no fluff content of these vids. Everyone should take note on how to do videos the right way. Many thanks.
I'm just happy you watch and enjoy my videos. I hope everyone can learn something. All this can be intimidating to some folks. But even today, I helped a nice lady in HD trying to decide which air filter for her mower. I'm happy to help. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this video! I have this mower and I was struggling with it running boggy and dying if I bumped anything when using the forward assist. Tried cleaning the carb with carb cleaner and still had the same issues. Ordered a carb rebuild kit for it and did the steps in your video and it has been running great since then!
What a great video! Very complete, makes me want to take a second shot at rebuilding that carburetor. Thanks to your video, I think I need to replace that needle seat. That float was sitting funny. Thanks again! You rock! 🤟
I made a post about that here a few weeks ago: ruclips.net/user/postUgkxOuYTVShaUZmzWo_luhVM_Hfy1rgTbxpG Without that Tecumseh tool, you can get the old seat out with a drywall screw. Don't go too deep and damage the sealing surface. And use the back side of a drill bit (I forget the exact size, just find one that fits in the recess with little wiggle room) to re-install the new seat. I appreciate you watching. Cheers!
Oh this is perfect cause I know nothing about Carburetor's and having problems with one of my Toro's with a Briggs and Stratton. Oh thank you finally a close up of what your doing cause I have watched so many videos and yours is the best. So very helpful Stella.
Thank you for your kind words Mr Bruce! I think of moving my camera around is like just picking up another tool. Not too much extra time involved, but it does create more time editing after the fact.
Thanks so much for putting this together; I did a rebuild before on our old mower and it didn't go well, the mower went from starving for fuel to leaking gas like a sieve. I eventually got rid of it, then my stepdaughter bought a house - in the shed was yet another Quantum-powered mower with a junked-up carbuerator. Watching your video helped me figure out several places where I had gone wrong the first time that I had no clue about; certainly the instructions that come with the B&S kit are not nearly as helpful as what you have provided. This time I was successful, aside from zinging the choke return spring into the engine.
Starting this process tomorrow with the same motor. It's a 6.75 190cc on a Yard Machine 20" and about 10 years old. Has started first pull every Spring after sitting for the winter. Yesterday it just lost compression. It'll will start but then dies out after about 3-4 secs. Cleaned the spark plug and air filter and now it will run but just loping along at about 25% power. Going to take the carb apart and see what it looks like. Thanks for posting!
Maybe just cleaning out the passages of the bowl screw will do the trick? Most of the other passages are large enough to not clog up so badly. Thanks for watching.
Hello Stella love you and your videos I will try to get on your livestream but your time difference is big to me in the 🇬🇧 hopefully see you on micksmowers Saturday
Cheers Mr Vince! I had to work last weekend so hopefully I can watch Sir Mick's this coming Sat. I'm still not decided about regular livestreams for me, but I definitely would try them at an hour that viewers from both sides of the pond could participate. Thanks for watching!
I love those quantum engines Stella. One of the best engines built by Briggs. Great video and camera work as always. Leo would be proud of you! Lol. ✌🇺🇸📽🎬Roger
Great video Stella, you have stepped up you're game on presentation and editing on this one. Great video to watch while drinking my coffee this morning. ☕Informative and well done! 😁👍
@@TheLawnmowerLady EVEN BETTER NOW. Thank you very very much, I have NEVER worked on a petrol engine before but have followed your excellent teachings to fix my mower that hasn't run for over 8 years. I was brave enough to remove the carby, clean it and refit it correctly, The joy when it started on the first pull.
Well done. very informative, and if there is anything to learn, it is, if yoy don't have everything you need, take it to someone who does. I was going to do mine, but my nephew, who has a small shop, has all the stuff needed. A suggestion: Don't be so hard on your brushes. If you look at your metal brush, you can see that the tines are all bent. It takes practice (and I still do it wrong) but work with only the tips of the bristles. Once you force it, you are actually working with most of the sides of the tines. Its like running your fingers through your hair with your knuckles.
I have a 2010 Toro Recycler(identical mower)with the same engine that is referred to as Ready Start. It has an auto choke that is activated by air movement of the fins on the flywheel. When motor won’t start on the 1st or 2nd pull, the main jet in the bottom of the bowl is likely to be stopped up or the governor vane is not moving freely.
@@philliphall5198 It's not the best on Briggs engines, but it can help getting the needle seat started. I use the back side of a drill bit to drive it home. I show that in my most recent video: ruclips.net/video/9l9RCreSkPs/видео.html
Excellent…I usually can get my mower to start but it takes a lot of pulls to do it. That’s hard on this older guys post surgical back..I buy the canned fuel so there’s no ethanol..I had to return the mower not long after purchase because of starting problems. The mower is 11 years old…Great video..
Great video for all the DIYers, sent you an email for sticker swap and congrats on being monetised within a short number more subscribers. The OLD MAN at EP over and out!
I commend you for clarification of the Carb rebuild kit for the Craftsman Briggs and Stratton 6.75hp self-propelled lawn mower. That can be surely confusing as heck when you think. What did I lose when I pulled this appart??? Actually not anything upon your disassembly.
Yes you did, I havent ever had one with that issue but at least the shoulder bolt was still there and the vane intact. That saved you a little trouble. :)
Thanks that was very interesting to me because I have a 6.75 Quantum on a Snapper purchased in 2004 that was fitted with a different version of this carb that doesn't have the choke, but has some sort of a purge bulb primer system. Has a history of being difficult to start and restart since it was new and I used to think about trying to revert to the choke carb but wouldn't know if it was feasible but it was nice to see what it looks like. I guess they made this change for emissions reasons....who knows.
Indeed, there are multiple versions of engines, carb, body combinations. Some due to manufacturing turnover. Once they develop a new/better product, they insert it into production without any fanfare. I appreciate you watching.
@@TheLawnmowerLady I just checked my Briggs & Stratton Flat Head service manual, which is very generalized, but I have the "LMS Flo-Jet" with fixed main jet, no adjustment needle for idle mixture, and no choke but what they call a "dry bulb primer system". They say it is non adjustable for low emissions. I guess when they stop working and can't be fixed they put out lower emissions in the landfill too lol. As an aside, when I brought this mower home from the store, it wouldn't start worth a damn and I eventually took off the flywheel and found the armature gap was super open on one end so it was not installed/adjusted properly at the factory.
Great video , The thicker bowl gasket in the Box kits usually go on the carbs from the E-Z start engines like yours there ......Only twice I had to use the thinner ones.....
Thanks for watching M. Cajun! That's good info to know. I just put the thicker ones on the carbs with the taller lip around the bowl. That said, I use far more of the thinner ones. Cheers!
I love your videos, they are presented very well. Today I will be working on that style carb so thanks a lot. From a safety point, you might want to reconsider wearing rings when working this type of equipment.
@@TheLawnmowerLady U R up and at it early this morning. I just went out and put my carb in the cleaner. One I got from harbor freight so I will run it through three or four full cycles.
Hi great video very helpful question did exactly what you did in your video along with cleaning gas tank and fuel line mower will run for a while and then cuts out as if not getting gas I'm getting spark gas is flowing I cannot figure it out any suggestions thank you
Spend all day today working on this exact same more found it in front of a trash can empty the fuel cleaned up the car cleaned out the air filter hold up the police system rusted solid no replacement parts soaked in vinegar put it all back together again spring week from age no part of a laboo used coat hanger to make brace for spring so not so mow the yard saved myself 495 bucks cheapest lawn mower with same equipment
I'm not quite sure where you live but our police system is rusted Solid and don't think soaking an officer in vinegar would help because of all the metal they carry?
Hi Thanks for the detailed info on this video. My lawnmower is craftsman 6.75 21” mulcher from sears.. i changed oil, gas and soark plug.. the engine wont start.. but i one thing i noticed is if you keep priming it would nick start for just few seconds and die.. would you be able to help please!
Great channel, awesome video. Would you mind reviewing which (diameter, length, thread count) bolt goes where? I'd removed the plastic shroud held in with screws, then the fuel tank assembly. Then unbolted the metal top covering. After that I'd also removed the air filter and bolts holding the breather box to the carb. So yeah, I have this model in a few pieces and am missing a few bolts. Or have some in the wrong spot.😅
I would go to any major parts house (partstree, jackssmallengines, repairclinic, etc.) to look at the specific diagram for your engine model #. Should be stamped on a flat metal plate peeking out from under the plastic shroud, covering the muffler.
Thank you for your tutorial. I was having an issue with my mower where it would start but then not idle and die. After removing the bolt on the bottom of the carburetor found that there was nothing passing through the holes in the bolt. Complete clog. Thanks again.
I love your video. I removed my carb and did all the cleaning. I really really really need a new red needle seat for my carb. My mower is just like this one. I sure don;t want to buy a whole kit. Got any ideas? My mower still cuts out after running for about 5 minutes. Maybe I need a new magneto.
Glad it was helpful! Next time the mower stops after 5 min, pop off the fuel cap. If you hear a whooshing sound, you might have a bad fuel cap (the vent is blocked) It should start right back up. Buy a new cap. If not check for spark. Hard starting when hot is a sign of a failing ignition coil. I've seen replacement needle seats in large quantities (likely from overseas) both on ebay and AMZN. I can't vouch for the quality, but worth a try. I appreciate you watching!
Thank you for the video. Last week I did everything you did, even put in a new spark plug, it didn’t start. Put back the old plug and it started and mowed my lawn. Today it didn’t want to start. Any suggestions??
Hard to diagnose online. Obviously go over what you did or changed, maybe a disconnected spring, then start with the basics. Make sure you have good spark, good fuel flow. I appreciate you watching.
Lawnmower Lady - Love your videos, straight and to the point. I noticed its cheaper to buy a brand-new aftermarket Carburetor than buying the rebuild kit. In fact, they package an air filter, spark plug all the gaskets fuel filters etc for less than the rebuild kit. Curious what your thoughts are on the aftermarket Carburetors. Thanks!
I think those aftermarket kits have their place. I personally steer clear, I've seen too many reports of hit/miss quality. I can confirm the spark plugs are usually fit for the bin. I'm also of the mind to try and keep as much out of the landfill as possible. That often means clean and work with what I have, rather than replace. I appreciate you watching. Cheers!

I guess they made this change for emissions reasons....who knows.
Indeed, there are multiple versions of engines, carb, body combinations. Some due to manufacturing turnover. Once they develop a new/better product, they insert it into production without any fanfare. I appreciate you watching.
@@TheLawnmowerLady I just checked my Briggs & Stratton Flat Head service manual, which is very generalized, but I have the "LMS Flo-Jet" with fixed main jet, no adjustment needle for idle mixture, and no choke but what they call a "dry bulb primer system". They say it is non adjustable for low emissions. I guess when they stop working and can't be fixed they put out lower emissions in the landfill too lol. As an aside, when I brought this mower home from the store, it wouldn't start worth a damn and I eventually took off the flywheel and found the armature gap was super open on one end so it was not installed/adjusted properly at the factory.
👏 wow what a wonderful job you have done on this video. Impressive
Thank you so much Mr Rooster! 😀

Great video! Very knowledgeable ! thank you
My pleasure! I appreciate you watching. Cheers!
Great video , The thicker bowl gasket in the Box kits usually go on the carbs from the E-Z start engines like yours there ......Only twice I had to use the thinner ones.....
Thanks for watching M. Cajun! That's good info to know. I just put the thicker ones on the carbs with the taller lip around the bowl. That said, I use far more of the thinner ones. Cheers!
This is a great video, thanks!
I appreciate you watching. Cheers!
I love your videos, they are presented very well. Today I will be working on that style carb so thanks a lot.
From a safety point, you might want to reconsider wearing rings when working this type of equipment.
Ha! You're probably right. Thanks for watching. Cheers!
@@TheLawnmowerLady U R up and at it early this morning.
I just went out and put my carb in the cleaner. One I got from harbor freight so I will run it through three or four full cycles.

Hi great video very helpful question did exactly what you did in your video along with cleaning gas tank and fuel line mower will run for a while and then cuts out as if not getting gas I'm getting spark gas is flowing I cannot figure it out any suggestions thank you
Great video Stella - and congratulation on reaching 1000 subscribers.
Thank you Mr Claus. I really appreciate that. Cheers!
Nice job, runs nicely. 🛠👍
Thanks 👍
Great video Stella. I oil the sponges on the plates just old school i think.
That's a good idea Mr Pete! I'm pretty old school too. My hands are usually covered in greasy oil, so I guess they get a little anyways. LOL
Very helpful video, thank you 👍
Glad it was helpful!

Spend all day today working on this exact same more found it in front of a trash can empty the fuel cleaned up the car cleaned out the air filter hold up the police system rusted solid no replacement parts soaked in vinegar put it all back together again spring week from age no part of a laboo used coat hanger to make brace for spring so not so mow the yard saved myself 495 bucks cheapest lawn mower with same equipment
Glad to help! Cheers!
Spell check
I'm not quite sure where you live but our police system is rusted Solid and don't think soaking an officer in vinegar would help because of all the metal they carry?
First pull , your good !👍
Thanks 😁 Mr Bill! I appreciate your support. Cheers!
Hi
Thanks for the detailed info on this video.
My lawnmower is craftsman 6.75 21” mulcher
from sears..
i changed oil, gas and soark plug..
the engine wont start.. but i one thing i noticed is if you keep priming it would nick start for just few seconds and die.. would you be able to help please!
Definitely a fuel delivery issue. Clean the carb like in this video, you'll probably be good to go. Thanks for watching.
Awesome video… I learned a lot! Thanks and keep ‘em coming!
Thanks Ms Brenda! Will do!
Thank you Very impressed & learned a lot
Glad it was helpful!
Great channel, awesome video. Would you mind reviewing which (diameter, length, thread count) bolt goes where?
I'd removed the plastic shroud held in with screws, then the fuel tank assembly. Then unbolted the metal top covering. After that I'd also removed the air filter and bolts holding the breather box to the carb.
So yeah, I have this model in a few pieces and am missing a few bolts. Or have some in the wrong spot.😅
I would go to any major parts house (partstree, jackssmallengines, repairclinic, etc.) to look at the specific diagram for your engine model #. Should be stamped on a flat metal plate peeking out from under the plastic shroud, covering the muffler.
good info i enjoyed the video
Thanks for watching Mr Edward. Cheers!
Thank you for your tutorial. I was having an issue with my mower where it would start but then not idle and die. After removing the bolt on the bottom of the carburetor found that there was nothing passing through the holes in the bolt. Complete clog. Thanks again.
I appreciate you watching. Glad you got it sorted out. Cheers!
very good jab thank you very much
Most welcome.
Pleasure watching Stella
Thank you Mr Gary for watching!
@@TheLawnmowerLady a pleasure very informative x
Berry good job love watching the video
Thanks for watching. Cheers!
I love your video. I removed my carb and did all the cleaning. I really really really need a new red needle seat for my carb. My mower is just like this one. I sure don;t want to buy a whole kit. Got any ideas? My mower still cuts out after running for about 5 minutes. Maybe I need a new magneto.
Glad it was helpful! Next time the mower stops after 5 min, pop off the fuel cap. If you hear a whooshing sound, you might have a bad fuel cap (the vent is blocked) It should start right back up. Buy a new cap. If not check for spark. Hard starting when hot is a sign of a failing ignition coil. I've seen replacement needle seats in large quantities (likely from overseas) both on ebay and AMZN. I can't vouch for the quality, but worth a try. I appreciate you watching!
Thank you for the video. Last week I did everything you did, even put in a new spark plug, it didn’t start. Put back the old plug and it started and mowed my lawn. Today it didn’t want to start. Any suggestions??
Hard to diagnose online. Obviously go over what you did or changed, maybe a disconnected spring, then start with the basics. Make sure you have good spark, good fuel flow. I appreciate you watching.
Nice video.
Many many thanks
Wow so detailed
Thanks for watching. Cheers!
Nice video 😊😊😊😊😊
Thanks for the visit
Lawnmower Lady - Love your videos, straight and to the point. I noticed its cheaper to buy a brand-new aftermarket Carburetor than buying the rebuild kit. In fact, they package an air filter, spark plug all the gaskets fuel filters etc for less than the rebuild kit. Curious what your thoughts are on the aftermarket Carburetors. Thanks!
I think those aftermarket kits have their place. I personally steer clear, I've seen too many reports of hit/miss quality. I can confirm the spark plugs are usually fit for the bin. I'm also of the mind to try and keep as much out of the landfill as possible. That often means clean and work with what I have, rather than replace. I appreciate you watching. Cheers!
Cracking repair and very helpful content stella
Many thanks Mr Ronnie. I appreciate you watching. Cheers!
