Thanks for that video, sir. Ordered a B&S carb kit that has that little o-ring along with the other gaskets, etc. Thought about getting one of those new cheap Chinese aftermarket carbs and just replacing it.....but figured it would be better just rebuilding the original one. Btw....the Briggs kit is about $15 cheaper than the John Deere one....same exact kit too. Keep up the good work!

My carb was flooding so badly, at times I would see fuel under the mower, and it would no longer start. I'd come back the next day, and it would run again. I tried all the tricks I could find on KZread. I finally figured out the problem. It was the little rubber tip at the end of the needle valve. The tip was cracked about half way through and leaning to one side a little. It was an easy fix, once I figured out this was the problem. I had the mower looked at twice by our local shop, but they didn't catch this.

Had a s…load of gas blowing out of cylinder when I removed plug. That small o ring was toast so I’m guessing that is why. Think I’ll just throw a new ready to go carburetor on in case there are bits and pieces throughout the carb. Will check the oil to make sure no gas got in it.

I did this to my craftsman lt1000 17.5 hp Briggs it still floods when I shut it down.then hydraulic locks and I have to drain the oil.any other ideas?

100% something's gummed up and your carburetor and your fill lines in your fuel pump or you got bad gaskets so I take it apart again. Re-clean it and see if you can fix it again and replace all the o-rings and gaskets. Make sure everything is there from carburetor to intake and so on and so forth

My Murray riding mower (27 yrs old) will not start on choke. I eventually get it going but it takes some time. Is the carb flooding on choke and is that the reason it won't start? It turns over but doesn't start on choke. Is that a Walbro carb you are working on ?

@billseivers3528

Ай бұрын

Probably not. The solenoid under the float bowl usually sticks in the down position which lets the fuel pass through the bowl and into the cylinder, through the valves and into the crankcase. Be sure to check your oil and if it feels really thin, or if it smells like gasoline, then you need to replace the solenoid or install an in-line fuel shutoff to stop the fuel from flowing into the carb after shutting the mower off.

I’m having flooding issues like this however, I noticed that my mower will try and turn over better if the spark plug is out. Could this issue in the video be my problem or do you think it’s more related to starter and compression?
