Re. those tabs that hold the pulley wheel loosely in place. If all intact, there should be 4 tabs. Only ever use 2, bent down opposite each other. Leave the other two unbent for spares as these tabs WILL eventually break off, depending on how often the pull cord or spring needs attention over the years. Good idea to try to look to check there are two holding the pulley in place, and if not, hold the pulley in place with fingers through the case gaps when lifting the case off the engine… otherwise… big twang as that spring flies unwound. I learnt the hard way. Story of my life… 😂😂
Thank you! You helped me fix a lawnmower I found on the curb two weekends ago. Adjusting the governor spring took less than a second, and now it starts up without any problems! Hope you're having a great summer!
Great vid but unfortunately unhelpful for mine my mower is similar but it only has the on governor spring not the 2 and it dosnt have that flap thing on the flywheel but still a great video clear and informative
You cannot reliably test an ignition coil this way. Many coils are okay when cold but fail to deliver spark once hot I have seen this many times on 2 stroke engines.
That's not how you do it. you fold the exposed wire back over the insulated wire and crimp the connector trapping the exposed wire between the wire body and connector.
I went to other videos and they all said the same thing. Turn the wheel half a dozen times, hold it there with a screwdriver, thread the rope in then let the wheel go and it will roll up the rope. Not for me! My wheel turned a hundred times and never got tight. Then. I found YOU! You said to manually roll up the rope, reinstall the mechanism and, sure enough, it worked! Thank you so much!
1:05 totally different to mine although mines also a briggs and Stratton 375 sprint.? The middle of mine has plastic bits that come out as you wind it up?
Tip, before refitting the boss to the shaft again, smear some lanolin grease to shaft where boss fits, will be easier to remove when the time comes again to remove.
@@Pushmowerrepair G'day, the carby shown in this video has no such adjustable side cap cover over the diaphragm. Those caps covers get lost and replaced over the years with that new style you have in this video. From the body itself, is there a way to tell visually from the G4 and LM do you know? cheers.
I was told it would take a month to get my mower looked at as they were very busy. So I tried this and managed to do it myself in afternoon. Thanks so much, the video was very easy to follow for a novice.😀
Hi and thank you. This video maybe nearly a decade old when I watched it, but it helped me so much. I'm in the UK and have only ever worked on 2 Victa 2 stroke mowers (including the one I have on the bench now), and this really helped me understand about the carb and why it won't shut off. Looks like I need to do a complete strip down and clean because of those electrical contacts inside the carb. Also my one has had ethanol run through it, so the float bowl seal has expanded and doesn't fit properly, so I need to get a new one as it leaks like a sieve after removing it to clean the float needle as it was blocked. I'll also watch the second part next😁 And how high is it suppose to rev?
G'day. How do i tell the G4 from the LM carby? Both I have here, had the clear and black poppet valves in a bag of parts. Black poppet one has to go into the LM per Victa book notes. Only body difference I can see is where the decompression hose goes onto the back of carbys - one vac inlet is longer with a white tip, and the other shorter with no white tip. Thanks.
