Great video, bought a no start mower with a new 42 inch deck just so I can put a new deck on mine and I ended up fixing the no start mower. So mine has been sitting doing nothing, decided to get it going again and use it as a back n forth property vehicle. Same engine as yours and I always enjoy watching videos like this keeps me sharp. Also saves me a lot of money. Thanks for your time and the good video 👍

Mine started running rough a week back. You vid made it easy to clean the carb and get it running great again. Something I just realized is these carbs have no air/gas mixture screws. That just makes them that much easier to clean and service.. Also redid my oil leaking valve covers. Cut new gaskets and also used Permatex Right Stuff only on the valve cover side of the new gasket. put on finger tight for overnight and tightened in the morn. No leaks. Also made a gasket for the PCV that sits behind the carb with the rubber hose that leads into the carb. No more leaks anywhere on my once oily JD. Those oil leaks can lead to valve guide issues due to heating from the fins being oil/dirt covered.

Thank you so much for this video. I am such a novice with anything mechanical, but your pointers walked me through the process. Most importantly, you got my tractor running again. Much appreciated!!!

WOW very explicit video, thank you very much, is going to my first time working on my riding lawnmower, thanks again.

Your video is well done. Very clear, step by step instructions. Thank you.

Thanks ! Just did mine with your video by my side! Worked perfectly!

Thanks had the same issue. now I can see what to do. thank-you

Very informative video, thanks.

Sounds good nice job explaining all the steps ......... Thanks

Nice step by step

Going to take my lawn mower apart tomorrow and do this Thank you

Thank you so much!!!!!! Shout out from North Dakota !

Nice job while only using one hand. 👍

You can get the carb rebuild kit here ...www.ebay.com/itm/174119875403

Did you use any threadlok on the bolts that go into the headers? The bolts that hold the main body of the carburator on.

Thanks for taking the time to do the video, I have the same 145 and it's a rust bucket, any idea where I can find the 1/4 inch screw that goes under the prefilter?

Great videos! I subscribed. I have a question: Facing the front of the mower, on the left side of the carburetor, my throttle linkage that's spring loaded, has 2 holes in it. Which hole does the linkage arm go into? Mine fell out. Thank you.

Your video helped me remove and clean the carburetor on my john deere D140 with the same 22 hp Briggs. She runs alot better but still wants to cut off unless I increase the choke. Do you think maybe the fuel pump is failing?

When you were talking about grinding down the 1/2 wrench, why are you separating those two pieces? Did I miss that somewhere?

not bad didnt hear it start

Awesome got a la 145 cuts great but it slows down when cutting up hill level ground is fine what could it be

Great video but I would have definitely replaced the air filters after all that work. 😅

I pulled the stem from mine to put in the ultrasonic. Found the jets came out. Went to put them back in and noticed they were two different sizes. Cant find anything online about why or which is supposed to go where. The only thing i can think is the larger one needs to go to the cylinder that drives the fuel pump? Any ideas?

I have this carb. It was running poorly on first startup after winter then died. Looking in the carb i could see fuel running in and then dripping out the bottom. Seemed like way to much fuel. I assume I need a rebuild kit?

Would you know the model of briggs you have ? I have enhairted the same engine from . A friend just not tye engine model, spec etc.

I’ve watched a lot of carb rebuild done on utube but I have yet to see any one put lock tight 222 on butterfly’s screws Your taking a chance of the screw or both going into cylinder and damaging piston s …

What tool did you use to take the four bolts out?

oh do you prevent this? pinch fule line to run out of fuel before winter storage?

Sir it could that dang float sticking /my well run for few minutes then die would u know sir ???????

Hey where did you add the gas in the carburator

I have a question: followed your video very good I might add! Briggs & Stratton 27HP, very similar carb, slightly different jet system. Cleaned everything, all jets clear, reassembled, not cowling & air filter yet; attempted to start 3 blasts, ie filling carb with fuel again? then fires up, running well. Ran for 2 mins, turned off fitted cowling not air filter yet. Tried to start, 3 blasts of about 3 seconds starts again all good, running well. Go for a leak come back won't start, ie 6/7 3-4 second blasts, spray a small amount of petrol in air inlet. Then fires up runs lumpy for 15 secs, then all good, turn off won't start. Spray small amount of petrol again all good, running well turn off won't start again even within 3 seconds. This was the original problem, ie why I cleaned the carb in the 1st place. Any ideas. The only thing I didn't remove was the air inlet manifold, as you didnt in your video. Electrics seem fine & battery/starter turn the engine over like a freight train & once running all good??? bizarre obviously not a serious problem, just a real pain. I think the Mower shop in Oz/NT would be 6-8 hours of labour & some spurious unnecessary parts & 2 -3 weeks wait. I'd appreciate any ideas?

You can buy just the parts and gaskets you need with out buying the kit, way to save money

Did you forget to put o ring over jets in video?

You ever heard of a tripod? You damn sure need one...

get a mount for your camera. good lordy

what a bore..... you'd just buy a new one...... totally boring. poor camera work as well
