I absolutely love the disregard for trash and mowing pattern standards. Taryl is a national treasure and should be protected at all cost.

@iamburl2667 11 месяцев назад

Sir you are so awesome in your common sense, thank you so much for taking time out of your busy days to make a video for all of us, it means a lot to me I know everyone appreciates you and your entire family, THANK YOU, part number, we LOVE YA ALL

@brittweir8844 11 месяцев назад

I love your videos. You and your family are very talented and entertaining. I just gotta say that little trick where you are using the cut off wheel cutting on the wheel bushing had me a little nervous 😮I know you know what you’re doing but there’s alot of “Not” so skilled people watching and they could easily injure themselves 😮Like I did, when I was a young man..😮, it’s all good ,I know it’s not the space shuttle😅😅😅😅,. Keep them coming you guys rock.❤

@caveman6141969 11 месяцев назад

That’s the coolest little mower I’ve ever seen. Keep up the great work.

@Tom-xp7dl 11 месяцев назад

For some reason this mower seems to be one of the most interesting Ive seen in a while. Almost as cool as Slippers tractor. You guys got me hooked.

@rickdennis605 11 месяцев назад

I really enjoy the restoration videos. People don’t realize the hours spent on a project like this.

@lonhoschar1943 11 месяцев назад

Great job getting that old machine up and running again!! Nice to see it actually mowing again!

Hey Tarly, Chris here and was watching that video, after you got done cutting some grass the old Bolens shot a lil 🔥 out of the exhaust 😂.

@DavidSmith-fr1uz 11 месяцев назад

That mower looks like a great design. I would be especially impressed how well that front mounted deck gets under bushes and the like.

@Shawnee.Hills.Small.Engine 11 месяцев назад

It's great seeing classic equipment brought back to life.

@maggs131 3 месяца назад

Its so awesome that this beauty was sitting so long and it still runs and performs so well. If you bought a new box store rider 5 years ago its already on borrowed time.

@chrisg.sonhiem6734 2 месяца назад

I'm sorry I should have said please get the other one running because I think it would be too cool I think it would be cool to watch two of those are running

@TheDadPenfield 11 месяцев назад

Taryl's ability to fix by far exceeds his ability to mow.

@patjohnson3100 11 месяцев назад

You do a great job bringing these vintage pieces of equipment back to useful life. I haven't seen a Bolens for some time.

@TheDadPenfield 11 месяцев назад

Taryl's ability to find any random part within 5 seconds in his shop, such as that quick pin is pretty amazing.

@Hjerte_Verke 11 месяцев назад

He is organized, believe it or not.

@maggs131 3 месяца назад

Yea you don't stay in business as long as him being a bozo.

A lot of these dealer mechanic are parts changers very few of them . Can think out of the box . And fab parts .

@MichaelBridges-ks2hu Месяц назад

And dam few of these parts changer can handle some things old.

@tommywood343 11 месяцев назад

It would be awesome too see it, painted and restored, it's like a very early zero turn, thank you Taryl for awesome video 🙏

@deanmoore420 11 месяцев назад

Great job getting that old classic running. Looks like it cuts the lawn. Pretty good awesome video.👍

@Farm_fab 11 месяцев назад

If you're going to recover the seat, carpet padding makes good seat cushion material, and carpet installation companies typically recycle take out padding and leftovers, and have some around their sites. Call and ask, and save the driving. The nice thing is you can use spray adhesive like 3M, and layer it, or even contour it with an electric kitchen knife, to fit the seat cover.

@Farm_fab 11 месяцев назад

Taryl, get yourself a box of Boraxo laundry booster, and use that for brazing flux. Simply warm the rod with the torch, snd dip it in a sealable container of Boraxo, and voila, you have coated rods, or at least the end of it. We were told by our welding instructor to do this in trade school in metallurgy class. I tried it snd it worked for stell and brass, but couldn't try it on cast iron, as i wasn't doing any.

grouse work Taryl mate she looks lovely after doing some minor bits of tweaking and who knew what a good gem could be and yep i,m looking forward to part 3 on that one and cheers from Australia 🐨🐑🦘🌴🇦🇺 or the land down under to your area and she sounds like a good compact little mower and so good looking even the kiddies could use it when mowing the front or back lawn etc.

@scottmmagby7057 11 месяцев назад

@williamickes3143 10 месяцев назад

That thing is great. I don't recall ever seeing one. I love it!

@benjamincresswell3713 11 месяцев назад

That one has a lot of similarities to Gravely w/ attachment on front. But Lawn Keeper prioritized putting the operator ON BOARD where it was an afterthought on Gravely. To me mower deck R & R is always a nightmare but Bolens did their homework on Lawn Keeper. On & Off in a flash! Compact Strong & Long Life; That design should've really caught on. Maybe it was too pricey for the time. Good one Taryl, thanks for doing. ben/ michigan

@Maximus43968 11 месяцев назад

🗣️ Kudos to the ever proficient, innovative and intelligent Mr. Cameraman📷. You are the icing on all of the Taryl Fixes All videos🎬. Thanks for passing on the tip Taryl : 💡 Dry on ..Wax off. Now there's Your Candlelight Dinner👍

@glennbennett6578 10 месяцев назад

I really enjoy your DIY videos. I too worked at a lawnmower shop (Gravely Dealer) back in the 80's. I was a teenager so I did the simpler repairs, mostly push mowers. My job was 90% Briggs and stratton and lawnboy mowers, so this old equipment is nostalgic for me. Thank you for this channel.

@MrBobWingard 11 месяцев назад

Hey Taryl ... if you need to drill a hole, accurately in a round piece of material, try this. Clamp your piece of 2X4 to the drill press table ... drill a hole the correct size for your part ...place the part in the hole ... drill right through the center. Should be centered within a few thousandths of an inch. You're welcome !!!

@tcmits3699 11 месяцев назад

Mr Bob, I'm lucky to have a small metal lathe. But that little trick with the 2x4 drilling the appropriate bolt size is so simple, great idea, and it's reusable, thanks again 👍

Pretty cool mower

@walterbordett2023 11 месяцев назад

Nice video,Taryl. Those old Briggs flat head engines with the pulse jet carb are runners for sure. Never had a carb issue with engines that sit a long time between runs. Nothing like today's mostly plastic throw away OPE.

@Enigma-Sapiens 11 месяцев назад

Cool! I drug an old Bolens similar to that out of a dump 40 years ago. I got it running and working and mowed my yard with it for 4-5 years until an older gentleman bought it from me for his collection.

@warrenvalentino5763 11 месяцев назад

Great video! i Love seeing the old stuff running. Love the new boots that you put on the mower! love watching your videos. there's your dinner!!!! :)

@robbiesapp3606 11 месяцев назад

Bolens are my favorite! I've restored an H-16 with a 2 stage blower, snow blade, and tiller. I also restored an HR-20 will a tiller, 2 stage snow blower, snow blade, and sickle bar. You'd be surprised at the parts you can still find. Some not as hard as others. There's a bolens owners forum as well!

@terryraymond7984 11 месяцев назад

@davidmoody239 11 месяцев назад

Sweet Bolens the original zero turn. Fantastic job as always Taryl those AG tires sure make it look mean. PS thanks for sharing your knowledge it's saved my butt on many occasions. 👍🏼👍🏼

@dannylinc6247 11 месяцев назад

Wax trick does work. We also did that with just engine oil. If somethings stuck, you can warm it, treat it, come back tomorrow. Take it apart. I had an EGR like that. No sense in making deadly NOX emissions. I used that method on the stuck broken bolts and they were way in the back. Got home from the wr yard, had a like new valve, and the stuck broken pieces came out with your fingers. Ten dollar job, 20 year old 360 V8. Then found out the intake itself needed replacing.

@leonhart2452 11 месяцев назад

Cool little machine. The articulated sreering is something you don't see often on such small machines. The mower deck on front and the ease of remove/install is another thing you don't see.

@terryraymond7984 11 месяцев назад

with those foam Air filters we dipped the foam in oil and wrung it out in a rag, the oil will trap the dirt better.

@robertmedina6875 5 месяцев назад

That looks as comfortable as a cement bed in below zero weather! Ask me how I know lol

@williamickes3143 9 месяцев назад

That thing, mower is the nicest mower, articulating , weight over drives, hitch in back and front mower. This mower is great and I've never seen one. 👍👍🙉🙈🙊

@dondonaldson1684 11 месяцев назад

It will be interesting to see how you refurb the seat!

@victoryfirst2878 11 месяцев назад

When I take bolts off that are a bit rusty. I clean them on the wire wheel and then heat them just a little bit and drop them into a old candle. The wax melts and stops rusting so well that a few years later you can take off the bolts without any heat at all. They just come apart, real easy. Worked for me Taryl, maybe it can help you too. vf

@keithstudly6071 11 месяцев назад

I notice that the recoil starter on the BS engine cover you showed was designed to rotate in the opposite direction of the one on the engine. I never knew B&S made counter rotating engines. Anyway if you use that cover you'll need to change the starter.

@billsmith1770 11 месяцев назад

it just looks like that from the top . see 41: 30 . it pulls the same as other one .

@davidcoudriet8439 11 месяцев назад

No, it doesn't. It's just clocked different on the shroud.

@keithstudly6071 11 месяцев назад

@@billsmith1770 I see. It's just rotated 90 degrees. I saw the square corner and miss under stood which side the rope was coming out of. I thought it was being pulled from the side but it is pulled from the top.

Sheesh, Taryl. If you cannot find 4.10 x 3.50 - 6" tires you're not looking very hard. Those are classic go kart and mini bike tires.

Cool tractor

@ristomattikolsi5711 10 месяцев назад

You could film the remake of the 1971 classic "Duel", but this time instead of having old rusty semi-truck terrorizing, it's an old rysty lawn mower.

@raymonster55 11 месяцев назад

To locate the hole on the end of the bolt, attach the block, drill the bolt hole, change the bit to the size for the bolt, put the bolt in and it should be perfectly located.

@jhonsiders6077 8 месяцев назад

huskivarna made one I had one in the early 2000s it had a timed deck was great for a suburban lot but out here on the farm if you struck a mole hill it would sheer the pins on the quills and the blades would strike each other ! Otherwise it was a fantastic mower !

@bbrut3332 11 месяцев назад

Great job on solving the little problems to get a almost 50 year old sit down mower working again. You could add 4 spacers to the seat mount to raise you butt a little higher to make it more comfortable. Like the ingenuity in getting the cable repaired.

@dyer2cycle 11 месяцев назад

26:44...Kept flinching, waiting for Taryl to lose his thumb any second 😬..thank goodness he did not...wouldn't push my luck too many times, though...

@bmca8876 11 месяцев назад

Good video,i was waiting for taryl to say to use some ear wax on that part !

@dennisfoltz7880 11 месяцев назад

I've been fixing those kind of cables for years . Instead of the set screws I take a chisel and round over the sharp edge so that it's about 1/8 inch . Then in lay the bolt on the anvil on my vise withe cable inside the bolt and put two spots on one side roll it over and put one on the other side between the two. By using the dull chisel and swegging it in you'll never pull it apart ..if your worried about rusting put some lock tight on the cable to seal . Been fixing them like that for a long time haven't had one fail .

@jeremymcdonald9152 11 месяцев назад

@blowupbob1 11 месяцев назад

Taryl, you said you wished it went a little faster. It's not the SPACE SHUTTLE! Looks like the ground speed is fine. Would like to see what the low gear speed is for the tight places. Sometimes slow is the way to go! Slow down and enjoy your dinner!
