Precise and to the point. I've seen way to many of these mowers that are basically a toss away once they won't run any longer. Although, the plastic carb won't rust.

Nice job finding the leak, hope you will dismantle the engine to see what was wrong, rings, piston, scored cyl. wall, etc.

Thanks! I was asked to look at a toro 22” similar to that one. I figured I would at least start by draining the oil and replacing the spark plug and filter. After doing that, it was still spitting oil, so I searched and found your video, which almost confirms that all hope is lost for this puppy. :( Thanks for the education!

Thanks you. Very straight forward. I've got a problem with the oil spitting out on the deck. Now I've got some ideas how to track the problem down. Appreciate the info.

I’ve been recording the compression of all 4 strokes coming into my shop the last month or so to get an average baseline. Briggs, Tecumseh, and Koehler. They all have ranged between 55-65 psi with one coming in at 85. Thing is, they all passed and operated fine. In your vid when you did yours I was surprised when you said it was low, then even MORE surprised when it failed the check. I’m doing this only about 18 months so I’m learning. Is there a reason why my checks are coming in “low” but still seem to pass? Thank you, and please keep up the great work. I love your vids my man.

@ray.videos Жыл бұрын

another thing that happens is the head gasket is bad. or your valves not seating. for the 65 compression Briggs has a valve release so 65 can be good still 80 is better but if the head gasket is leaking then the compression would be lower. a good way to tell if it is a head gasket leak into the valves is run it shut it off and pull your dipstick if smoke comes out then you know exhaust is getting in from a blown head gasket.

I rebuild briggs engines and that one is 1hr labor piston rings gaskets and piston arm is less than 100 bucks. So it's worth fixing.

@macknumber9 11 ай бұрын

Air coming back up through the dipstick tube could be a ring problem or cylinder scoring like you said but it could also be a head gasket...if the head gasket fails internally (between the cylinder and the pushrod gallery) then air will make its way into the crankcase and out the dipstick tube...this is where the briggs and stratton head gaskets are known to fail

@doublewide6 2 жыл бұрын

I don't think so, because there is not oil pushing out the breather, no smoke in the dipstick, but I can check. The engine was way overfilled with oil when I got it as well.

@macknumber9 11 ай бұрын

Yes much more likely that the head gasket would fail before an issue with ring/cylinder...the air will get down into the crankcase if gasket fails between cylinder and pushrod gallery which is where they always fail on briggs... I had an engine spitting oil and smoking simply because the wrong oil was put in...turns out the lady put 2 cycle oil in the crankcase...that low viscosity was making its way right past the rings into the cylinder and burning off and then spitting out the exhaust because not all of it was getting burnt...it was flooding the cylinder with oil...

That compression gauge is for cars not mowers. Also most mower engines have compression releases to make starting easier. Makes for lowered pressure values.

I have a question. you pulled down the cover for the air cleaner and there is a small plastic tube that runs off the full tank at the top. why would gas spill out of it when the tank is full when moving the mower. it starts to leak out of the air filter housing on to the mower deck under the air filter ?any one know ?

@drcajundan 8 ай бұрын

Check the carb needle valve seat and float adjustment. Problems with these cause gas to leak out of carb.

That was a disappointment double wide, you don't throw out an engine just because it's a bit worn or has a broken ring. You rebuild it, you can can put a set of rings in can't you?
