That was Sears cheapest model back in 1981! I had one EXACTLY like that. It was the very first thing that I ever bought on my Sears Credit Card. I believe that mower is from 1981 or earlier. Why? Because it does NOT have the dead man cut-off handle. After 1982, all lawnmowers sold in the USA were required to have a dead-man handle that cut the engine off if you didn't hold the handle closed. It was a reliable old mower. And, I bought the optional grass catcher later for it.

hey Dale I know this is pretty old now but you helped me before . I have a poulan pro 38" deck with a 13.5 briggs engine. i have been offered a briggs 18.9 it looks the same would it fit in my mower the mower it came out of was a 48" deck' Thanks again your friend from Australia . Nick

@DaleHobbs39 Ай бұрын

Hi It should fit. use the drive pulley from the bigger engine. I'm not sure of the wiring. It should be the same since they are both Briggs. I did an engine swap last year, Briggs 19.5 one cylinder to a Briggs 22 V twin. everything was the same except the muffler. good luck on the swap.

I believe I have this exact compressor. Any idea where I can find the air filter housing that sits in the head? The outer ring to holds the filter is there but just inside the cover is broken off. Or do I just do without it. Thanks for the video

I've just restored one of these and using it to cut today for the 1st time, lovely saw, might start using this more than my Mac 335 . . . But I noticed as I was working on it and just now that it wants a particularly vigorous pull to get going same as 9:25

I just found a craftsman 1hp 7.5 gallon compressor in tha garbage, its missing the cylinder but the motor works fine. I need to get it going but there's so many kits on Amazon that i dont know what to get. The parts are really cheap and I've always gotten immense satisfaction fixing things like this, wish me luck😊

@@DaleHobbs39 Well it turns out that the parts for this particular 1hp 7.5 gallon compressor are totally unavailable anywhere. I threw it back in the trash, I should've kept the motor but I don't really have the space and had to force myself over time to limit what I hoard away, I started to bury myself in stuff, and things.....well you know. I left it at the curb and it disappeared, maybe someone else knows something I don't, it was missing everything for the compression, including the counterweight, the fan, the piston, rod and cylinder.

I’m going to have to get a couple of dowels to assist with the assembly of the carburetor on a very good Craftsman mower with a Honda engine that’s been sitting in a shed for 2-3 years. I can see that it would be ideal to get a Sonic cleaner and an air hose to be properly equipped. The Easy Walk controller for the self propelled feature works like a charm (or at least it used to). Thanks!

How do you adjust the belt tension for the deck belt on this mower. When I engage mine it’s not super tight.

@DaleHobbs39 8 ай бұрын

The spring and pulley shown at 3:45 is what tension the belt. If the belt is installed right and is the correct length when you engage the PTO lever it applies tension to the spring and tightens the belt. There is a diagram on the deck or on the under side of the running board that shows how to rap the belt around the pulleys.

@igotakai5644 5 ай бұрын

@@DaleHobbs39 Hi Dale, what if you "engage" the blades with the lever but the blades don't spin and the belt feels loose? It appears to be routed correctly according the the diagram on the deck. Does that just mean the belt is old and stretched out? I can see the belt tensioner pulley move back and forth when I move the engagement lever. Thank you!

Just watched the three part video of the 1984 Tecumseh. Very impressive. I just started piddling with old mowers a couple years ago and found that I somewhat enjoy it. I’ve had a couple Tecumsehs and they seem to cause me trouble. I really like the way you work and show the important stuff. At 81 , I’m a little late in the game, but I learn something every day, even though I forget more that I remember. LOL I just realized that we may be neighbors, I live in Huntsville and have since 1942. Keep up the good work. Thanks 😊
