In this month’s segment of “Grassroots Tech Barn”, we are going to cover two issues that although completely unrelated; both can create problems at the track. Just as with all previous articles, we will try and make this a simple step-by-step process to remedy the problem quickly and efficiently. Last month, we covered starting issues and the diaphragm gasket is one of the items that can cause starting issues on the flathead Briggs engine. The diaphragm dries out over time due to the dry …

If you look at the similarities between a human and an engine, I would compare them like this - The oiling system is the heart; it transfers vital fluids (oil) to the critical areas of the engine. Without it the engine would not live very long. The intake system is the lungs, it takes oxygen and mixes it with fuel to ultimately have its energy converted to power once inside the engine. This then makes the piston, rod, and cranks the muscles of the engine. They take the energy from the lungs …
NOTE: This starter kit can be installed only on engines equipped with a compression release cam. Installation: Disconnect the spark plug lead from the spark plug to prevent unintentional start up. Remove the blower housing. Remove the flywheel using the appropriate flywheel puller. Install the ring gear to the flywheel with four screws. Torque the screws to 35-50 lb-in. (4-6 Nm). Using a small hammer, knock out the notched piece of the cylinder (shown below) to create clearance …
Oil leaks are never a pleasant thing to deal with. One ounce of oil can look like a gallon once it has circulated around your engine, making a complete mess and creating a very aggravating work environment. Last month, we explained how to replace the side cover gasket. This month, we want to expand on that and explain how to replace a leaking PTO seal, and stop leaks at the valve chamber. Before starting an oil seal leak, take note of which seal you need. There are two seals for the raPTOr …
