I have easy to follow and thorough step by step tutorials "do it yourself" (DIY) videos to help you with your broken lawn and garden equipment including snowblowers and zero turn mowers.
I do my best to teach you how to easily diagnose problems the fastest, quickest and most efficient way with real repairs beyond just replacing a spark plug. These tips are for both the homeowner and shop owner.
Whether it be a handheld, two stroke, two cycle engine like a chainsaw, weed eater, weed whacker, string trimmer, grass trimmer, line trimmer, hedge trimmer, strimmer, brush cutter, leaf blower, or four stroke, four cycle units like a lawnmower, wood splitter, lawn tractor, zero turn mower, snowblower, pressure washer, generator or a ride on mower that needs parts installed or replaced, I’m your go-to guy.
My favorite brands of spark plugs are NGK and Champion and are the ones I recommend.
I’ve been a small engine mechanic for many decades and also run my own repair shop so my videos are loaded with tips and tricks that I have learned and want to share with you. You will also find many tool and product reviews from top brands on my channel as well.
I have the largest Small Engine Repair Video Library on KZfaq and the entire internet with over 1200 videos, just GOOGLE "DONYBOY73"!
I want "DON THE SMALL ENGINE DOCTOR" on KZfaq to save you time, frustration and most importantly, MONEY with my HOW-TO videos!

I think that a mower with no drain plug is more likely to not be serviced regularly. There are probably a few people who don’t want to deal with the dumb process for draining the oil. I also think the owner got their moneys worth out of this mower. I got ridden hard and put away wet.

Great, thanks! I'd suspect the oil got low and engine failed and they put more oil in to see if it'd still run. I'm a bit surprised you're not keeping the case, unless it's damaged.

I have that problem. Moth ball bags have mostly worked. Both in the machinery and under the hoods of the cars. For out-of-season storage I'll drop one or two on whatever it is and try bag it as much as possible, or at least bag the engine. A ZTR mower gets two bags and I have a cover for the mower. But still, when I pull the snowblower out soon I'll drop the belly pan to be sure the hotel's been unoccupied.

They ran it low on oil, then added oil after the rod broke. A worker at a construction co [that I was their mechanic] ran a 555 Ford backhoe almost completely out of oil. He panicked added oil up to the full mark, and thought himself quite clever. Unfortunately ,he could not crank the motor. So, at the bottom of the dipstick, was black oil. All the rest of the way up the dipstick was clear oil that he added. No, the boss didn't fire him. I noticed black oil/clear oil on the dipstick that you removed.

Honda's can be pretty forgiving on rebuild in my experience. Last summer rescued a similar engine, GCV190, on an HRX217 where the broken rod knocked a hole in the top end. I used the bottom end of that engine along with the crankshaft & flywheel, all in good shape, and utilized the cylinder top end, with rod, piston, & valves, from a GCV190 pressure washer on which the pump was kaput. Have successfully mowed with that HRX217 for two seasons now. But I am a DIYer; such an effort likely wouldn't be productive nor cost effective for a shop owner.

I recently unstuck a exhaust valve and noticed 2 cracks in the valve area.I looked at one I had in my shed....same thing lots of small cracks in the valve area. The Honda gcv190s seem to crack...never seen a GCV160. Do that

Very good video Don, I'm wondering, if this engine did over-rev, is the carburator adjusment would be the only reason or could it be something else?

Can I ask about my husky 65021as with the briggs? I put a 12 volt sealed battery in it like the honda uses. Been working well, always remove the battery and charge it during the winter. When I turn the starter sometimes it will just click. Does it have a relay on the ignition wire? The starter motor hasn't been used much.

Take the muffler.... Get to see one torn down it was my first Honda. Buying a new engine is expensive but a sonar may be good with some new wheels.

My Honda didn’t have that orange gasket, it was grey. I suspect it was taken apart before and piston rod wasn’t torqued and or no assembly lube.

Hey Dony great video and I enjoy how you're keeping all those spare parts! If it were any other brand you'd chuck everything in the dumpster. Odd to see a Honda rod go like that, even after 1000 hours. Do you think the sump had been removed and the engine worked on internally at one point or did it look factory?
