I got a craftsman push mower the other day, with a 6hp briggs engine, in non-running condition. I pulled the head and removed all the carbon, and there was alot (looked like someone OD'd on the oil) and it is to the point that if i drip some gas in the carb air intake, it will start and run for...

I was out working on my mower today, and gave it a shot of pyrol starting fluid to get it going. I set the can on its side on the ground next to the mower, and fired it up. It took, and then i noticed a white cloud spewing from the can. Ether is not the best thing to have spewing straight up in...

Howdy. I decided to get my little mower going today, but i got it running and there was a horrible grinding noise. Looked under it and found this i was thinking that i could get under there with an angle grinder and; without killing myself, grind 1/4 inch off or so, just because the threads...

Howdy, i just got a new air compressor that came with a new impact wrench. It has little/no power even on loose bolts. I think i may have given it a little too much oil. It is set at 80 PSI with a limit of 90 so i know thats not the problem. It has a 1/4 hose, and im thinking of going to 3/8 for...

What do you guys do with telemarketers?? I took the cordless out to the barn with me, was waiting for a call. Anyway, it rang, something about a morgage.

I have an 84' Wheelhorse Workhorse LT1100 that i use for everything. Anyway, when you depress the clutch, Nothing happens unless you are in 3rd gear. I looked under there, and figure when you hit the clutch, a pulley retracts and takes the tension off the drive belt. So where do i go from here...

The 8 horse briggs engine in my huffy needs a ring job so I took it apart. Parting it out. I have an 11 horse engine that is super reliable, and thats going in. Anyway, the haed, shroud, mag, carborator, starter is off, and I am wondering how to remove the flywheel, piston, and crankshaft. Or do...

No clue where mechanic is. He was supposed to bring a pull start fer one of my Briggs (8 horse from 1978) yesterday. I'd just wait, but the lawn needs mowed and I am bored :-) anyway, I have another "donor" engine here with a pull starter intact and ready to go. My question here is how do I...
