Adjust valves, Bolens 450E lawnmower (Briggs and Stratton engine)

In this video, i adjust the valves on my 2018 Bolens 125cc 450e push mower (model 11A-020W765). It has a Briggs and Stratton engine (model 08p502-0047-f1).
You would want to do this if you have a hard time pulling on the starter rope, your engine starts making unusually loud noises and/or you start burning more oil than usual.
*Adjustment (starts 3:45)

    Good video! Lots of stuff about 450e carb cleanouts but this vid is one of the rare ones showing valve adjustment. 👍

    I buy none running ones and fix them up for resale, the 20 inch and 22 sale very fast if they look ok and for sure a new blade I rebuild every carb on all of them

    Why can't you keep one running it crank up running a minute and cut off

    Hi! Not sure what you mean by keep one running? Best case scenario your engine will run rough if valves clerences aren't correct... worst case scenario you'll bend your valve stems and need to replace them.

    It can cause further damage to your piston during combustion.

    He's touching the tip of the piston not the side.

    Way to much talking bro. It shouldn't take 12 minutes to adjust the valves also only Americans use feeler gauges. Its not hard

    I agree it wasn’t straight to the point, but there are older people who have trouble with this typa stuff and will need it to be more specific
