    163cc OHV Briggs: Update

    I've had it running and actually mowed with it several times. Fuel supply is clean, tank clean, carb cleaned twice, choke NOT sticking open. This is one of the strangest running small engines I've ever experienced. I've been running it with the cover off so I can see what the carb linkages are...

    163cc OHV Briggs

    WOW ARE THESE CARBS CRAZY OR WHAT!!!!! I've been mowing quite a bit with this unit the past few days with the cover removed so I can watch what the carb/choke linkages are doing. It appears this engine requires some CRAZY marionette dance between the choke and throttle. My settings aren't...

    163cc OHV Briggs

    Fuel is clean, good flow from tank, no debris in tank. Yesterday I finally got a chance to pull the carb and no visible dirt, blew out with compressed air. I didn't take apart the jet assembly. It actually ran worse, still did the "can't get up to speed with intermittent backfire" so I took off...

    F250 5.4 Triton slight miss under load

    Got the truck back from mechanic. Number 3 coil had corrosion. New coil and plug, $167 later and good to go. It wasn’t quite like it was a decade ago, the miss was more subtle than before.

    163cc OHV Briggs

    Well I opened my mouth at a garage sale last week and brought home what appears to be a pretty nice Toro Personal Pace mower. The note on the mower said "Needs new engine Make Offer". When I asked about it the lady said someone put on a new carb and told her it will need the engine replaced. She...

    F250 5.4 Triton slight miss under load

    This isn't like past COP trouble. Previously when a COP was failing I could hear interference when the radio was on an AM station.

    F250 5.4 Triton slight miss under load

    Decent local mechanic can get me in on June 2nd, he thought cleaning injectors is common on these engines. I don't own a scanner.

    F250 5.4 Triton slight miss under load

    I have a 1999 F250 Super Duty 5-speed stick with a 5.4 Triton with 125K miles. Last year I replaced the fuel pump relay. I don't drive this truck very often so the gas may be a bit on the old side, today I managed to siphon most of the gas out of the tank (29 gal). The plan is to add about 10...

    How many check the air pressure in the spare tire?

    On the Accord and Camry I always check them before any longer trip (annually) they always seem to need 10/20 psi added. The old F250 never is probably been nearly 10 years.

    Gravely snow blower

    There is a safety clutch behind the PTO. The low speed auger might have Belleville washers to adjust if it is slipping. Is the high speed impeller spinning? The bronze gear wearing out is a common problem due to lack of lubrication.

    Remove the plug in the front of the gear box to see what the bronze gear looks like.

    Homemade wood boiler

    When I had an OWB I installed a Triplite charger/inverter for power supply. I kept my boat batteries there through the winter. Much safer when the power goes out, not to mention peace of mind.

    Ever buy tires off ebay?

    Several years ago I bought a reground crankshaft for a Saturn. Looking on eBay I found one that turned out to be at a local machine shop. I went to the shop in person and was quoted a higher price. When I asked how they could offer a lower price on eBay and pay them a commission they gave me the...

    Ever buy tires off ebay?

    I need some trailer tires 225 75 15 and see some on eBay for a pretty decent price. They are Summit brand and the seller is Simple Tire. I barely even use the trailer and never approach the weight limit on the trailer-----the old tires have simply aged out.

    post frame building (pole shed) - ceiling inside

    You might want to make sure the trusses will hold the load. When I put up my barn many years ago the builder asked if I planned to finish the interior. He used a different style truss to support the ceiling.

    Any knowledge regarding Wheel Horse D-180 welcome

    A D-180 Wheel Horse is coming up for auction locally with a 56” mower deck and 56” front blade. I might be moderately interested in purchasing. I believe it has a 2-cyl kohler engine (K series?). How good is this model? Parts difficult to find?

    Whenever I get the urge to look at a large battery powered appliance, I go look at the pile of Dewalt, Makita and Bosch batteries in the shop that are now junk.

    Self propelled lawn mower advice

    I have 3 Toro Personal Pace lawnmowers they all run (some of the time) I am glad I never spent $500 USD on one which is about the going price new, plastic parts under the deck break, cable issues, dropped a valve seat in one, lots of little issues over the years. They're a decent mower but...
