I live near cresson. Nice town. In the summer I go there to hike because it is cooler. In the fall it is very pretty. In December I visit because they always have a white Christmas when no one else in the area has any snow. In the spring……wait, some year I have seen snow in May.lol

Thank you For updating us on this Honda issue. I want to share my thoughts and my experiencing that I'm having. I did get recalled repaired but I don't know if the valves has been adjusted and how would I know? I'm not a technician that's questionable second thing is that I've noticed with gas line valve in the off position I was able to run my mower for five days and noticed that it's possibly defective. Also I'm also noticing with the valve on of course it has encounter an idle issues, revving up and down possibly carburettor issue or something else with the recall Repair that's causing this issue. I've only had mines for about nine months. It's kept in the garage and clean no debris in the filter.etc I think Honda should've been changing out these lawnmowers or refunding the customers that are affected by these models that encounter too many issues

Why the gear is made with plastic pvc and with the heat gets deformed melted the inside the engine and not only arrive the return of backfire and goes inside the carburetor from the Honda engine and from the carburetor goes to fuel tank you are screwed

@@averagejoevideo9556 well then I guess my question then was what is the second oil fill port for on the engine? It would be hard to add oil to that fill port because you have to take the wraparound cover off to get at it. Is it for the same type of engine oil or is it for something completely different and why doesn’t it have a dipstick to check it?

Thank you for your video. I have the same model, brand new. I like this mower but having some issues with mulching and wonder if you are having the same problem. When the clipping director is fully closed for mulching, there is a small gap such that clippings fill up the chute. Looks like a bad door design and wonder if you know a fix for this. Thanks

Had an HRX217 with one of those plastic (Xenoy) decks. The deck cracked after about 10 years of residential use. Honda denied the lifetime warranty for the deck because i made a simple modification elsewhere on the lawn mower which they said "voided the warranty". The modification I made had no impact on the deck. This mower was the most expensive and shortest lived mower i've ever owned. I will never ever purchase another Honda lawn mower.
@averagejoevideo9556
@averagejoevideo9556 Ай бұрын
I have heard that they rarely replace the decks under their lifetime warranty. Apparently, many users get holes in the deck from rocks or debris slamming the underside. The warranty does not cover damage from impact. I wonder what is covered?

Most lawn mowers don't have decompression at all. Sounds fishy, Honda never really made much lawn equipment anyway. Japan is not really know for having large lawns. It doesn't surprise they might bow out of the lawn equipment game. I don't think the Chinese are really into lawn care either. When it comes to making lawn care equipment for Americans they do a piss poor job, they don't care. The best lawn care products are American made cause we are the country with big manicured lawns. It's an American institution, So Buy American made.

Bought my Honda mower in 2000. It's still going strong but back then they made all the parts and it and it's an OHC. Not sure where it was made. Start's like a dream. In fact it the harder you pull on it the less likely it is to start. The store brand mower I had before the Honda is still going too. It's 30 YO and has a B&S motor but it's always been a finicky thing to start. Why have they lasted so long? Change the oil and clean the air filter every year and use a quality oil. Simple as that.

I bought one of these Honda lawnmowers at the end of last year. Used it maybe five times. Did everything that you’re supposed to do and at the end of the season, I dumped out the gas and did all that wonderful stuff. This year I take it out and I can’t even crank it. Finally managed to get it to run for 30 minutes and I shut it off and went inside to get me a sip of water and use the restroom, went back out to finish up my yard and I could not crank it back up. I have not been able to crank it back up and that’s been several weeks now. I do have the electric start one which would not start using this way and pulling the cord well I almost tore off my arm with it so that’s out of the question. So now I’m going to have to load it in my car and take it to a Honda lawnmower repair place. This is ridiculous. I paid a lot of money for this lawnmower thinking that it was going to last me a long time just like my Honda car. But I am really disappointed in this purchase. Honda needs to just give all our money back and let us go and purchase something else.
