My name is Bre. I took two years of small engine repair at the local college. When I left school, I fell into a wonderful job at a local small engine shop where I worked the counter for a couple years. In 2010 my husband and I opened up our own small engine shop in central Arkansas where I am able to work alongside my family and best friends. We saw over 2,000 pieces of small engine equipment every year, and answer 1,000's of small engine questions. We specialize in brands such as Briggs and Stratton, Kohler, Echo and Shindaiwa, but work everyday on MANY other brands like Stihl, Husqvarna, Honda, Craftsman, Remington, Red Max, Troy Bilt, Scag, Bad Boy, Hustler, World Lawn, Poulan, Mantis, Etc.. Hopefully, my experience I share, will save you Time, Money and Frustration in the future!

I have an old Craftsman lawn tractor with a Kohler twin cylinder engine. I forgot to winterize it one year & the carburetor seized up. When I looked into a genuine Kohler replacement, I was shocked. I could buy a Holley double pumper 4 barrel cheaper. Bought a Chineseium off eBay. It still works. If it quits, I can buy 10 aftermarket carbs cheaper than 1 OEM

Bre, I have to admit, I bought an Amazon carburetor package for my cheapie Poulan chainsaw. Now, I believe I paid a whopping 119 bucks for it back when Hurricane Sandy wreaked havoc her in CT but I couldn't bring myself to pay 60 bucks for an OE carb alone so I gambled on 21 for the Amazon. To my amazement, it tried to start on the second pull and did on the fourth. I admit, I had to tweak the adjustments on the carb to get it singing but being a former racer who is used to carb adjustments, to me, it was no big deal. Your video on adjustments helped me on that, thank you. 20 minutes changing the carb, lines and fuel filter, 5 minutes adjusting and I had close to 2 cord of wood cut from a freshly down black walnut in about an hour, and this is the bottom of the barrel Poulan, a 3314 with the 14" bar. I get it, that import stuff can be crap a lot of the time. Heck I thought I'd be robbing parts from the import to fix the OE, but it's working for now. I know lot's of people, in fact most will have no idea about adjusting and even be a little scared of doing it so I am the anomaly. This is why I love your channel, I've learned a bunch about the small engine world. Thank you so very much.

Great work you do on your channel! Fixing stuff started with me when I was a baby!! Walking home from school back in 1965 when I was in 3rd grade, I found a lawn mower out for the trash truck to get. I pushed it home. I asked my father to help me fix it; he said: "That's impossible, I know nothing about lawnmowers." I tried to pull the rope, but it would not move. I took the entire thing apart and ended up at the piston; I had to knock it out of the cylinder with a hammer and piece of wood. I found a piston ring was broken and that is what locked up the engine. I removed all the rings and walked the 3 miles to Sears. They sold me the new ring for $1.50. I put the motor back together and when I started the thing, my dad ran out of the house to see what was going on. He had this horrible look on his face!!! He looked at the mower, then up at me; looked down at his feet and shook his head left and right. I knew what that means: He thought his entire life was a failure - his little 8 year old child was a mechanic! ... and he didn't have a clue when I asked him to help me fix it. I made a ton of money that year mowing yards during the summer. I sold that business, with the lawnmower and the list of my clients. A year later, I fixed a radio and started a TV and Radio bussiness. longer story.... me and my red wagon picking up broken TVs and Radios. Life just keeps getting easier and easier.

If i encounter ANY lawnmower with a plastic carburetor I trash the entire engine and install a good used one with a metal carburetor. I can find plenty of the old mowers at Habitat or other thrift stores. I bought a Troy bilt that apparently had around 20 hours on it (for $40 dollars) but would stop running after a few minutes due to the junk plastic carbs that Briggs and Stratton started using. The mounting was changed making installation of a real metal carb difficult, I pulled the entire engine, scrapped it for metal and installed an older Briggs I found on a mower in another thrift store. Now i have a RELIABLE Troy bilt for the sum of $65 dollars that has not failed to start for 3 years. I well remember the failure that was the Carter ThermoQuad carburetor with its phenolic plastic body/fuel bowl. Plastic does NOT belong in carburetors. My favorite is an old Craftsman mower with a sticker on it that says "not for sale in California" That told me I likely wouldnt have air/fuel mixture issues or carb problems because its going to run dirty and well indefinitely.

Bought on your advice a mantis tiller 2nd hand. Needed carb kit, new fuel lines and filter. Ordered the aftermarket chinese carb kit for the C1U K54 carb. But to save time ordered a complete kit with new carb, fuel lines, filters, sparkplug for around $15. Worked luckily properly after turning in the "H" and turning out the "L". The tank grommet was too big luckily old one was still usable. With these cheap parts you have to be lucky. For commercial users always go OEM. Especially critically dimensioned parts. Once bought aftermarket pump kit for an older outboard. Returned the aftermarket kit as the stainless waterpump cup fitted sloppy in the plastic OEM pump housing. So had to go OEM Yamaha for the complete pump.

I always use OEM parts unless I have no other choice. Just had too many problems with the Chinese knock offs. One caveat is Stens products. I've found them to be comparable to OEM, but Stens doesn't make everything I need. I will say that Stens belts seem to be better made than the OEM John Deere ones, which honestly don't seem to last long and are fairly expensive. So, I stock Stens belts for JD riders.

I learned my lesson regarding aftermarket carbs. I bought an aftermarket carb for my Honda powered pressure washer. Normally I would just clean those kind of carburetors, but for some reason I had trouble trying to remove the main jet on my original one. An aftermarket carb was only $15 or so, so I took a chance. My pressure washer started up and ran alright for the 5 or so minutes that I tested it. Went to use it about a week later, and it would not run under a load unless the choke was on. After doing some further research I found out that the main jet on the aftermarket unit was the wrong size. I decided to spend the $50 or so to buy an OEM carburetor, installed it and my pressure washer has been working just fine now for over 6 months.

I love your show, I watch all time. My wife is impressed with your knowledge of small and not so small engines. I've got a question that I've been trying to find out the answer. This show you talked about after-market parts. I have a John Deer D-125 Lawn tractor, 42" deck and I finally decided to change the blades. One problem that I ran into was trying to find the correct blades that are supposed to be used. I checked with John Deer site, and they never mentioned the part number. Amazon indicated they have after-market blades that supposedly fit my mower, but when I checked the ratings column, several mentioned the two blades hit each other when in use. A couple of customers said they had to grind the blades down 1/16", so they wouldn't hit each other. When I checked on the length the description page on Amazon listed the length as 23 3/8", the same length John Deer blades have at all most double the price. I did find a pair of blades that was suppose to be John Deer compatible and the blades were 23 1/4", hence I shouldn't have to grind them down. They look exactly like the John Deer blades, at half the price. I haven't received them yet, but I was wondering why John Deer doesn't make the blade model information public. I spent days this year and last year trying to find the correct blades. My blades still cut good and has never been changed or sharpened, but I know the day is coming that they will have to be changed.
