@@fishboat6244 not chromed to my recollection. It was a while ago though.

@@Teambadecision I'll do my best for you. Tell me what's up?

@@Slim1423 Good morning slim. Let's just go thru this and make sure we haven't overlooked anything first. Is the oil at the proper level? Should only be about 18oz. Is the air filter in good shape? How is the mower stored when not in use? Flat on the ground? Got any pics that may be helpful to me?

@ZombieDaveAZ Yeah, the oil was at the proper level. It use to only use 2 to 4 ozs oil on a yard, but yesterday i was going through about 8 ozs, every time i filled up the gas tank! White smoke was blowing out the muffler, the spark plugs kept getting clogged up. Lastly, it cut off and i couldn't crank the engine up anymore. So, i may be at an end with my mower. Mower sits on my porch, with a cover over engine. I use pennzoil SAE 30, and i try to keep engine oil topped off. Oil leaking around the breather assembly. I use gas either fresh gas or gas mixed with fuel stylabilizer if keep for a while.

@@oliviafranks did you check for spark yet?

Appreciated 👍

@@paulpeaked7286 inside from the top of the assembly at the canon plug down to the pump. I cut and soldered in the wiring for the new pump

@@HowardNichols-g6q I noticed that when I order replacement cylinders (aftermarket) for cut saws they don't incorporate that bonded port plate. Just worth noting. Do you think you will replace the top end?

Did you do the choke out and then 1/2 way back in? That helps a lot. That's the high idle restart.. also clean air filter.

@@ZombieDaveAZ I thought using the choke only applied when the saw was cold? new clean air filter installed. new fuel. (40:1). I adjusted the coil pickup so it was closer to the 2 pick ups on the flywheel. seems a bit better now.

@@ZombieDaveAZ I put new fuel lines and primer bulb in it. that made a big difference. it was leaking fuel under the carb and sucking air I guess. starts right now.

Jim, first I would research if a NEW carburetor is available to you and if that's a viable option. If you locate one, just know that worst case scenario is that will have to buy it if things go wrong. I have had some stubborn E tubes in the past. Generally a good amount of WD40 and pushing down with a flat screwdriver will get it loose. You may also need a small Allen wrench to help it out the last little bit. The angle on the Allen wrench is what does it. For a good visual there is a gentleman on KZfaq "Bruce's shop". He does a lot of these carburetors and is very good at it. I hope it helps you out.

@@paulpeaked7286 you would think that it would be marked inside a cover or someplace obvious. I appreciate your input brother.

@@user-dk8oe8cd2u thank you. 😁🍺👍

I know some guys that use those little micro drills too.

​@@ZombieDaveAZyeh, I saw one that used a micro end mill

Hey Gary, that's a good question. When I read it I tried to do a little sleuthing on the subject. If it was a security issue (from what I'm reading) it would show a hard code that could be read from an OBDII scanner. Perhaps and this is just a guess but perhaps a super high dollar scan tool could reset that code. That would be the way to go I think. If it's a "hard" code, disconnecting the battery would not erase it. So basically I am no help to you on this. Perhaps a 4runner forum would help you to narrow this down. Best of luck my friend. 🤔

Hey, Steven. I'm not sure what brand it was. I only cared about the color match. I took a pic of the cleanest spot and then color matched my pic with the lid on the spray can. I did get it at Walmart, I can tell you that much.

To anyone reading my reply comment to this guy BeADad. Do NOT Tell him anything!!!! Here's why. I spent HOURS trying to solve this particular problem. You don't have to subscribe to my channel, I don't monetize. It's MY findings being shared in order to help others. This guy has the balls to ask one of you to share what you learned by watching the video because he can't take the time. This is a huge problem for tik Tok scrollers. If you don't catch their attention in 10 seconds they move on. Lol 😂 Now, because I didn't like the the way he phrased his comment and if you guys support me he will be FORCED to watch the video. Then maybe he will solve his car problem or maybe he won't. I personally don't give a F--K! This is the epitome of someone trying to look over your shoulder to get the answers during a test. You did all the work and this clown just wants the answers! That's BullSh!t!! Whew I feel better. Now let's see what this keyboard warrior has to say. I'm sure it will be a winner. Educate yourself and be a better person. Don't help this guy. I actually do feel better. 😁

It sounds like you have a helluva saw! Yes, for hot starts and just general operations it's always best just to read the owners manual. For restarts : pull the choke all the way out and then halfway back in. That sets the high idle. Good luck with your modded saw. 👍🍺

@@ZombieDaveAZ Yea it is 2010 saw I bought a couple of months ago for $20, no owners manual included. I'll try that next time. It didn't occur to me as all my other saws hot restart without a problem. Thanks!

Is this on a push mower or riding tractor?

@@NeinFeline so glad it worked out for you. Happy mowing🥴

Thank you friend.👍

Thank you Philip. I appreciate the kind words. Have a great day.👍

Thanks buddy, I hope you have a great day as well.

You sure can change it to tube throttle and no special pieces or parts needed. Find the tube throttle on Amazon or from the dealer (much more expensive) and you're in like Flint. Should be about $50. Good luck. 👍

Happy to help brother. 🍺👍

If worse comes to worse email me at [email protected] then we can exchange phone numbers and I'll talk you through getting it running. 👍
