The Common Briggs Intek Problem: Your Riding Mower Won't Start. Broken Compression Release on Cam
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- So, why won't your riding mower turn over? I'll show you how to first diagnose this common Briggs & Stratton Intek camshaft decompression (also called compression release) issue, explain how the decompression cam works and the easy steps to repair it.
When this decompression / compression release part breaks, the symptom is pretty much identical to a weak battery or bad starter - the engine tries, but won't turn over.
What happens now is many people will replace the battery first, then the starter and perhaps even the starter solenoid; only to find out $200+ dollars later, their riding mower Intek engine still refuses to turn over. Welcome to the popular & growing club of Briggs Intek owners who have had a decompression camshaft failure.

T-Bone, I’ve watched a lot of videos showing how to replace a Briggs camshaft and adjust the valves. YOURS IS THE ONLY ONE I’M SAVING! Thank you.
My thoughts exactly.
This mechanic is so good and has so much experience that when he sets valve clearances, he knows how to adjust them without without using a whole series of different size feeler gages. A novice should never follow suit until he has at least ten years of experience doing it. T-bone
Probably has more like 30 years of experience. And that's why he makes it look so easy. So if you have only done this one or two times, My advice is using a couple of different size feeler gauges. Don't be fooled by T-bone's humility and expertise. He's making everything look easy, Believe me. And, the tricks he shows along the ways are invaluable. Thanks again for another great repair!!! 👍👍👍
exactly. I would've gone .005" on clearances. But I'm amateur guy. : l
T-Bone, I’ve been doing small engine repairs for over 25 years and actually teach students so the knowledge is passed on…. But let me tell you, your video is going into my classroom as it covers this procedure beautifully, with simplicity and with humor. Well done brother!
Awesome, thank you. Get them all to Subscribe 😆 and Subscribe to T-bone After Hours 😆
I love your demeanor and sense of humor! You've got yourself another subscriber, sir! Thank you for your expertise, experience and willingness to share it with the rest of us. The audio and photography qualities of your videos are top-notch as well. Very professional!
Thank you 😊

Love that hammer comment !!! I'm gonna run out to my tool box, snatch open the "Drawer of Thor", pick out a BFH, and have my bride paint or letter the handle to reflect, "TH-4000" !!! Love the videos !!!
🤣 🤣
I've had an intech 22 v twin since 13 ,best lawnmower engine I've ever had, I'm not commercial but I've never paid to have my yards cut
That’s the best Briggs camshaft video I’ve seen. Thanks
Thank you for showing what "rolling" actually is/does.
The Tonya Harding 4000 hammer cracked me up so much I couldn't watch the rest of the video because my eyes were watering from tears of laughter!! Now I have to replay the video! 😅
Wow! Not only do you get your mower fixed, you get T Bone's song also. Nice music. go T Bone!
The man with the magic touch has his own song!🎶. Pretty cool, dude!
Fantastic video! Time to round up my grandson and get him helping fix mowers and watch the glow emerge!😎😎
Thank you. Awesome my friend
@@RaleysSmallEngines TAKE A BOW!
An engine "heart surgeon". T-Bone, you know and love what you do.
Sir you are consistant I every video. Straight to the point, every motion towards accomplishment of repair. I enjoy very much
Thankyou Sir.
Yes sir, thank you. We try to be to be to the point because we understand the frustration of people trying to repair their mowers. Thank you for watching and commenting my friend.
The Tonya Harding 4000,lol! Definitely gotta be of a certain age to get that one. My easy repair would involve throwing that single Intek into the scrap bin and replacing it with a V-twin.
Keep them coming. Regards from the UK and yes, I prefer to watch your video rather than the Euro Cup Final!!!!
A stick magnet, lol. What a fantastic idea. That's genius. That's a really simple way to test.
An absolutely great and detailed video. Thank you sir!
Hi Mr and Mrs T-Bone, this has been a pleasure to watch really good information 👍
Great video and I love the closeups on the parts going in. I'm about to tear into a 19HP briggs, as it has that distinct "clank clank" sound of a broken connecting rod. Sub to your channel. See you in the next one. Cheers.
Nice song T-Bone! Another Briggs cam for the land fill. Atleast it didnt blow the engine up! 👍😎🇺🇸
Well done, neighbor. You make it look easy. I like that song.
Super exciting video, very detailed item by item, step by step instructions on how to get this done. Truly amazing my friend, have a great weekend!
SIEMPRE SE APRENDE ALGO DE LAS PERSONAS CON MAS EXPERIENCIA....MUY BUENO ESTE VIDEO....MUCHAS GRACIAS POR LA IMFORMACION.....APRECIO SU TRABAJO RALLYS SMALL ENGINES
Thanks T-bone! for your channel and the info on it!!!!
Your t bone song really rocks
no job is complete until someone is bleeding... and this time it wasn't me! hahahaha
The Tonya Harding 2500..... 🤣🤣
I picked up some plastic razor blades the other day to try on the sump and head gasket cleanup, we'll see if they work or fail.
Nice job on the ACR repair brother.
Hey Mrs T-Bone 👋
And thanks so much again for the assistance the other evening T-Bone, it really helped. 👊
You can tell you have experience with engines, great instructional and catchy song. You've got a new subscriber.
I gotta replace mine on my 20 hp intek plus.... thanks for the video. Just perfect.
Love the song. Is that you singing on it. Great video brother
Great video thank you for sharing. Very important to always use OEM parts ask me how I know. I replaced two aftermarket camshafts in back-to-back mowers both failed.
Love the T-bone song!!
👍👍👍 You make it seem so easy. Thanks
He’s a big fan of Vicegrip Garage cause he’s using nearly all Derick’s names of everything that’s really Humorous. I can’t blame him Derick’s very funny an great mechanic.
Awesome video! Great narrative and detail around important do not miss facts. You are a true professional Mr. T-Bone! BTW.. Great music and lyrics!
Thanks for the video. Like the song 🤠
Glad you put this one on your video!! I suspect I’ll net it soon as I got one of these engines.
I bought a 2005 Arians 17.5 rider off the original owner, he only used it a dozen times.... Looked brand new....but crank just like this one, but I got lucky...hydro locked😎👍
Great videos you're a Great teacher to learn about small engines.
An absolute pleasure to watch this work from T-Bone,,,,,, awesome
Love the song towards the end 🎶
I just found your channel. My tractor does that all the time. She's gonna get the Tonya Harding 3000 real soon!
One of mine has the same issue. It was given to me as a parts machine because the owner said the engine was locked up. I quickly figured out that it was a compression issue by the way it was acting. I did a valve adjustment on it, and it fired up and ran great. I used it for a couple of months with no issue, then it was parked for about 2 months. When I came back to start it, it was doing the same thing again. This mower has a bad deck, so I haven't torn into it yet. I recently found a donor mower, so I am going to start tearing it down when my two current projects are finished. I'm thinking the camshaft is probably the issue. It has a Failtek.
Love your. Song,that's awesome,great video
Mr. T-bone I must say I do get a kick out of your videos. I love learning, but I laugh a lot at the way you present the information. So here's a trivia question for you if a motor doesn't have your typical spirograph oil pump. How does oil get slung on the inside to all the critical parts? Is it just momentum? Thanks for the education and the entertainment.😅
Love the camshaft song ❤️
T-Bone to the rescue again! 😊
Ditto love the song. Another good one T - Bone
where i can find the song? :D very educative videos! hello from Romania
I like your presentation style. Your theme song is neat. I'm now subscribed.
Another good video!!!!
Excellent video very informative and the song rules
You a funny guy,love your videos
Mine does this same crap! Now I know. Great video.
Woooooooo got another camshaft job done t bone you the man wooooooo😂
Great video good to know thanks again😊
AWESOME VIDEO THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO
...awesome video T-Bone....I learn something new every time I watch....simple question - I noticed the two gaskets, the sump cover and the valve cover,
you put on dry. Do they come from the factory totally dry or do they have any kind of oil/sealer on them?....would it be a good idea to pre-lube the gaskets?
TIA.... 🙂
Love the song …… thanks
Awesome job.
The bolt wouldn’t come out time to pull the big guns out 😂
Always entertaining my friend
Loved it thanks for the video and the good info.
You're welcome
SUBCRIBED, LIKED and Hats Off to this great "Mow"canic. thank you, THANK YOU!
Tbone I love your videos thank you
Thank you Kenneth for watching and commenting my friend
I love your detail 😅
and if you really don’t want to fix it, mine has been doing this for at least 5 years and all i do is hit the starter a few times until it releases pressure and it spins as normal and then starts…
I'm having the same problem with my 2004 Murray that has a 17 and a half horse Briggs It acts like it don't want to turn over I've tried replacing the battery and starter re-adjusted valves it's got a new head gasket on it but it just won't turn over
Perfect video
Great video! Just one problem. In this video, and all the others I've seen on this type of repair, that old pully either falls right off or the video skips over that part. So, I have a question.
What do you do when that pully won't come off. The hole in the frame is too small to remove the engine with the pully still attached and there's not enough room for a wheel puller. I've cut them off with a grinder but replacement pulls aren't exactly free.
So, how do you get those stubborn pullies to come off?
How about show us how to make the oil siphon tank.
I have a video on how I made it. Check it out when ya get a chance.
Quick way to diagnose
This issue also is remove aiur cleaner and cover the carb aur horn
Crank it over
If does turn over then the compression release is brokedead
No air in to compress..
Well you get
It
Great video! Just subscribed as well!!!
Thank you
Good ol thunder gun 😂
Wow! He good!
Great video now I’m going to do this job! How much should I charge for labor to do this? I literally have a husqvarna on my lift now with this exact same engine and issue. Thanks
Thanks for watching and commenting. That's a great question, but I depends on many factors. Location, competition, experience and more. Just charge what you think is fair, and what would you pay a shop for the same job. Every area and shop is different. Just treat you and your customer right.
Ok how many hours would you say this job takes to complete? Thanks
Do you have a video on repairing a broken connecting rod
Without a lift it's much more difficult. Did mine last year. Lasted about 14 months. Did aftermarket cam.? Got yo donut again
Thank you for this great video to learn from.
Do you happen to have one in your collection for the head gasket?
Same thing, sears rider with 18 hp Briggs.
Thank you. Yes we have a couple, can't remember the titles. Look for a smoking video on our channel.
@@RaleysSmallEngines smoke signals. Perfect
hahaha 😆
@mnbsay9548 🤣
Good job
Briggs & Stratton technician told me the aluminum rod went to the exhaust because it would hold heat better than the metal rod metal rod would bend
Please let him know he is confused. Sorry. Aluminum is on intake and steel on exhaust, or you can run both with steel push rods
Briggs & Stratton when I ordered a rebuild kit I had to replace pushrods and all for the camshaft and lifters the technician told me to make sure I put the aluminum rod on the exhaust because aluminum will hold heat where the metal will bend
@Tommy-K4BWN sorry, he is confused
I was at Briggs & Stratton dealer for a long time they wanted me to do their warranty work till I found out how much the price was and had to keep old motors in stock and parts and go to believe it was Georgia at the time 4 weeks schooling and I said no I don't want to do it and I just become a dealer and I ordered parts for my mowers I had one that a guy had worked on couldn't get it running twin cylinder horizontal engine and come to find out it was a wart camshaft I have never seen a camshaft more than the rods and he replaced everything but the camshaft you can twist the camshaft for like a s curves way it bent don't know why he did not see that Kim in that shape replacing the camshaft and everything motor runs fine I miss working on stuff because of my health I'm no longer able to do that or drive an 18-wheeler anymore
I believe there is one model of briggs with aluminum push rod on exhaust. Possibly the release is on the exhaust in that case? I thought it had to do with metsl expansion affecting the release.
What causes those cams in the briggs to go bad so often?
Design failure and material
T bone appears to be a VGG fan as well
inspection sticker scraper??!!?? lawd... did you drive in the 1980's?
🤣 in the 70s I was driving
T Bone , Any Videos on removing Electric PTO Kohler Command Cud Cadet Gt2544 Any tips please!!!
Do you have a garage door video?
I have a 25 hp twin cylinder. Is this engine prone to this issue.
Great video, but I’d just do an engine swap.
What cleaner did you use to clean out the case?
This time I just used brake cleaner
Number one thing is have a 300 cca battery that’s been load tested
From there value lash and then camshaft 😢😢😢
Did 3 in one day goog job.
How many hours did it take you.
What's the cost of a job like this?
What type of oil
And this contributes to little to no oil changes!
There is no point for loctite on that pulley/crankshaft bolt. I've never had one come loose and never used loctite on one in my life.
What kind of work light were you useing.
An expensive one lol
