Here is a 2nd Original Tecumseh Factory Training Video I found in my archives - from the (now out of business) original Tecumseh Engine Products Company. I am uploading this to RU-vid for anyone who want to see what Service Technicians and Small Engine Shops used for Troubleshooting Tecumseh Engines. The video is long and dry (from 1985!!). - but I thought it would be a nice alternative to other carb troubleshooting videos on RU-vid - some of which are very good - but others are just "so-so".
The beginning of this video has a corny skit - where the factory engineers at Tecumseh poke fun at "Joe Homeowner" , (dressed with a Goofy hat) that is has done his own tune up - and now the engine will not start).
The rest of the video may help anyone diagnose common engine / starting problems related to carburetors - especially on 1960's, 70's and 80's series Tecumseh engines.

This is from before economists took over, when service was part of a company's product. Great video.

Ooooo... The flashbacks! Worked 20 years as a repairman at a hardware store selling Husqvarna, Stiga and Ariens, I sure recognize the "I never touched it" statement :-)

I liked the adjustable carbs. I would change cam profiles with welding and regrinding for performance, so AFR needed to change also. Too bad this company is not around anymore! Those Tecumseh engines would make a lot of power and stay together even at high RPM's.

@clockguy2 4 года назад

I've noticed in small engine repair that the customer will stand there and bald face lie to you about the "good" condition of their equipment. I worked at an equipment rental store. The rented mowers went out with a full tank of gas and an hour and a half later they would always call and say the mower stopped and wouldn't run. If you asked if they put gas in it, they'd get mad and always say yes, and you'd have to tell them to bring it back. I soon learned to say, "Well of course you probably checked that it still had gas, try pulling the spark plug wire off and putting it back on a little tighter". That was a way for the customer to save face and ended a lot of wasted time for us.

Hey! have a question i have an Ariens ST-524 1987 snow thrower with tecumseh engine 5 hp runs smoothly on 95 and 98 octane. But with alkylate gasoline runs the engine unevenly have tried adjusting the carburetor. Is the engine too old for this fuel or is something else wrong?

What type of oil should be used on the needle inlet seat, any type of motor oil around 5w-30 or SAE 30? I started my seat in dry and it made it about 1/4" and slammed shut a door on any more movement. I swear I heard the seat say "Not one more thousandths of an inch in penetration pal, unless you grab the lube!" HELPPPPP what kind of lube does she like? : )

Today at $85 shop labor? 3 hours & parts, could buy a new mower.

@semlohde1 Год назад

That's my thoughts too. And I'd suggest more for labor and would parts even be available. I'm worn out trying to tinker with my Katrina age tecumseh 11hp and have a new generator arriving tomorrow. I've cleaned the fuel tank and lines, changed oil, cleaned out the carb and replaced the spark plug. It came to life some 7 seconds. I'll finish enjoying the video. Thanks.

People don’t buy engines they buy lawnmowers. Most would not know what kind of engine they have or even that it was not the same brand as the mower!

@brucethomas3100 5 лет назад

@@scdevon Hmmmm, I had, notice I said HAD, a horizontal 18 horsepower B&S, with very few hours, broke the idler because the oil ran to either end of the oil pan at 20 degrees or less incline or decline. Junked it, gave it away, replaced with 20 horsepower Kawasaki engine. No more problems. Oh, and it was built in 1976.

@logangregory3441 3 месяца назад

Kind of disgusting how they portray their customers as complete morons. If the customer wants to be a responsible owner and learn how to service their motor the company makes fun of them.
