Awesome video. My brother brought me a 46" mtd mower with a ELS 656 22 HP briggs and I put new plugs and checked for spark and good. I then took fuel line off and cranked and it was spitting fuel so good fuel pump. I took the little brass plate with 3 screws holding it on off and sprayed throttle body cleaner in there and cranked and it starts but surges horrible and smokes. When I try starting it back it won't so it must be the carb. Mower sit a couple of years and worked fine when parked. This video helps show me what I need to check it's a little different than mine but I think carb is the same. Thanks for posting.

Man...I'm glad I found this video. Problems with my Briggs dying after about 25 minutes. Figured it was the carb - put a new aftermarket on there. Immediately noticed the bow or gap on the manifold. Problem was worse afterwards (old carb fit cleaner than new). Was driving me craze - found this and confirmed I had a problem. Going to use some Permatex HT gasket maker and hopefully it fixes the problem. Thanks for making this video.

The tool for those threaded rods is a 4mm socket.

I had the same exact warping on the manifold. If you hadn't made this video, I probably wouldn't have known to look for it and I wouldn't have known how to fix it. Thanks, buddy!

4 mm socket that fits the bolts

Yep, the linkage on the left as you look at it from the front.... having a hell of a time getting it back on...still fighting though. Also had the warpage as well but the little shim and extra gasket seems to have worked so far. Thanks gor the video

Exact problem I was having. The plastic was warped in the same spot. Gasket maker seems to have fixed it. Thanks.

I wonder if the plastic manifold was the issue the whole time?

Heat gun and you can take the “bow” out of that plastic manifold some. Just takes patience and time

Thank you for creating this!

I really need some help with the linkage! I just can’t figure mine out. It’s a hasqvarna rz46i and replaced the fuel pump and carburetor but not sure where pins go :(

Man.. do you by chance have a more detailed video/picture/instructions or anything showing how the linkages go back on. I took mine off over a month ago to clean the carb bc it wouldn't start and I can't remember where they all go back it's been driving me nuts lol. Been push mowing the whole yard haha

Excellent video

Does the 22hp have under carb have two springs

Fuel tank vent is plugged and causing vacuum in the tank will cause your sputtering issue after 20-45 min depending on the size of tank.

Good information. Could be a 7 minute video.

was hoping you would have shown the two linkage rods, mine is apart and forgot to mark the hole, three weeks to get the carb, next time i will take pictures

I have 22 hp B&S carburetor that has been discontinued. V -twin Nikki . Found a OEM rebuild kit for 75.00 . Should I buy an after market brand ? If so what type

I got a husqvarna 22v46 riding mower it was surging so I removed the carburetor to clean it after I put it all back together it now starts with the rpms racing easily hitting 5k rpm

Linkage issue maybe? Maybe the governor arm loosened and slipped? 🤷🏻‍♂️that’s all I can think of that would make it over rev. I’d check anything to do with the governor.

What engine is that? I have a Briggs V-Twin 407777 and it does not have the metal "shim", but the aftermarket carb came with it. Should I leave it out or install it? BTW, a 4mm socket will fit the outside Torx bolts.

I don’t remember the number and the customer had the mower back now. From what I understand the shim wasn’t put on earlier engines and was added later on to help with fuel issues.👍

I swapped the carb on my B&S 20 hp v-twin engine following your info video and I appreciate what you shared but, when I finally got it started , it runs wide open while I am trying to adjust the throttle. The throttle cable moves a silver plate under the carb but it does nothing. What can I do to fix this problem?

Sounds like you have an issue with the governor, I’d check to make sure that all of the linkages are put back on the way they came off or that you’re not missing one. I’ve done this a couple of times when I removed and installed a carb just getting in a hurry. That’s where I would look, good luck. 🍀

Good Feller there.

Thanks for the video. I have been having issues at start up. it will start with carb. cleaner and stay running but it will only crank without it. I have fuel and spark. I am thinking it could be the auto choke?? it is a 27HP Briggs and Stratton on a Simplicity Broadmoor.

@beesprojects2692

I am wondering if you might have some water in the fuel. Especially if the tank is above the carb, the water will settle in the carb bowl. It could also be the auto choke like you say. Could also be a vacuum leak. Check the vacuum tube going from the valve cover to the pump for cracks. If it is cracked the fuel pump won’t work correctly. That’s a very common issue on these engines.👍

I smell gas when parked. It spits gas out exhaust when first starting. Following your directions when I removed the fuel hose on top of carb gas ran out of rubber hose and continues to do so unless I keep hose elevated. Is this normal? Maybe fuel pump issue? Thanks

If the level of gas in the gas tank is higher than the end of the hose, gas will run out. Sounds like you also have a flooding issue. I would check and make sure your float is good and your fuel shut off solenoid is working properly.

These are my favorite engine to rebuild and there really dependable plus they take a over haul really good and last a long time I hate the plastic manifold and sometimes you have to grind a little for replacement carb to clear manifold

Rebuild the Carb. There is a number printed on side of carb. Amazon will send a kit tomorrow. Note: There is lots of extra parts in Kit. you may have extra parts. That's normal. The valve cover has the engine model number. That may help you also. Usually surging is dirty jets. Engine is starving for gas. I have fixed this issue many times.

Thanks for the detailed help, especially showing the shim placement on the carburetor between the two gaskets. A 1/4in socket also works on the four torx head screws,

Hi, what is the difference between intek v twins 18 20 and 22 hp . Can you make 22 from 18 ?? Thanks

@beesprojects2692

Жыл бұрын

To be honest I have never tried to do this but as a general rule, the higher the horsepower the larger the displacement inside the cylinders. I am sure it is possible but I’m not sure at what cost, it may be more cost effective to buy a larger motor instead of build it for that little bit of power. It could be a simple cylinder bore with new pistons and rings. Also as a general rule a smaller displacement engine can usually take higher heat for a longer period of time so by boring out the cylinder there is less metal and it can be more prone to failure. If you try this please let me know how it turns out. Good question.👍

@@AKGaragezz a quick search for displacement on an 18 hp showed 540cc and a 22 hp showed 724cc. I guess I just assumed that cubic centimeters and displacement was the same thing. I am almost certain that the carburetor would have larger jets to feed more fuel to the larger hp engine. I have drilled those jets out before with good luck but it was on a high hour engine that needed the extra fuel to run right.

I have had more issues with this engine than anything I’ve ever worked on. When I tore into it there was mismatched gaskets, no gasket on one of the intake sides. Just garbage.
