I heard you say " that's what's wrong " like three times ,,,,,, lol there was definitely a lot wrong with that one, fortunately nothing too expensive or complicated. Well it helps that you're great at sniffing out the trouble. Nice repair Random thanks for another good video
Everything I’ve had the tightening screw was in the middle. How can you tell when it’s the opposite? Probably an easy answer but never ran across it. Even though you’re not a mechanic it’s surprises me how people do not take care of their things. And then question why won’t start. Take care great video
Well, you can just loosen stuff and see which part adjusts the lash...lol. Typically, if it's got the small T20 torx in the middle, that's the lock. If it has the T40 in the middle, the outside nut is the lock.
If you can see down the side of the rod as you're spinning it, you WILL see if it wobbles if it's bent. Or you can remove it and roll it on a sheet of glass.
@@randomwrenching Yup, I know the sheet of glass from my father’s music stores - testing drumsticks for straightness. I just didn’t realize you could test in place in the engine without removing them. I’ll have to check that out the next time I remove a valve cover. Thanks!🔧👍
LT = lawn tractor. 1550 = 15 horse, 50 inch deck. Unless they’re playing games with us, and then all bets are off. 😂 I wonder how much actual cutting power it has if the HP is only 15 to drive a deck that size. Would they play around with pulley sizes to make it work the same as an engine with several more HP but consume less fuel?
These cubs are a little different with the numbers. I have no idea why they have the 15 in there, but the 50 is the deck size like you said. I had the GT1554 model. That one had a 27hp Kohler and a 54" deck.
