What city are you based out of? I have been looking for a Husqvarna rider for a long time.

Sounds like a valve sticking after it heats up do a compression check on it.

you ought o tube them tires and lube those gears with a good lubricant.

I generally pull cover off of self propell and clean the grass build-up out, pull wheels and lube axels, front gears for drive or rear. Pull shroud and air wash cooling fins. Other things as needed

Possible bad coil

They don’t do anything but drive it hard tell it quit and complain about the brand 😢😢😢

If primer bulb stays in holding vacuum. Probably passage in carburetor. Haven't seen tommy time work on one of those for long time

The yardman I get a hundred for them. Some where around there other around 60 ?

Air gap in coil.

Take ur head of the more an check the valves the four bolts in the front that's what u hearing when u crank it up

Clean carb just for general purposes, and check the coil. It's my understanding that when some coils start to fail, they'll work fine until they get hot, then not start until they cool off some. And be fine until it gets hot again.

The fact that it is sputtering to a stall makes me suspect the carburetor. You can drop the bowl on that engine. The bowl nut is your main jet. Clean that and see if there is any debris in the bowl that might be getting sucked up as you run it.

Check meter valve in bottom of carb. It is the screw that holds the carb bowl on, and sometimes the tiny holes in the bolt get clogged up. Clean out all holes on the meter valve screw, holes on left to right side, and hole down the middle, and reinstall. Can clean out with paper clip and carb cleaner. Also check air filter, if dirty just replace it. Old gas can cause problems too.

Check for spark when it dies . If that's good and still not running spray carb cleaner in carb and try if that makes it run remove carb and clean remove gas tank and clean and replace fuel line

New carburettor if it's broke 22 lb on Amazon 😮

Is the gas cap vented? when you opened the gas cap it ran. Might be valves adjustment?

It sounded like it was getting a spark. 🤔fuel issue maybe. You'll have to go into the carburetor and clean out all the gunk, I think.

You need to raise the cutting height, then cross cut it. That engine was bogging down too much.

Check the gas cap open and listen for a hissing sound if it does its a bad cap

Glad you figured it out! Long live another Quantum!

Always been a guilty pleasure of mine. I sailed aircraft carriers into war a few times. Best feeling in the world was to fix and sell a roadside mower on my days off! What a joy.

Choke problem .....

Clean the carb really well. If it doesn’t work, get a new carb.

I have a retiree that needs the extra income to survive and he drives an older pickup so it makes me feel good to help a guy out thats on a fixed income and he does a good job with my mowers and doesn’t charge me to pick it up ( try that with Lowes )… he gets a nice tip and is dependable….thats what makes America great!

I hope that you cleaned out the petrol tank and sharpened the blade before the customer collected the mower.

I seen vapor lock to when gets hot

Check the coil

A cheap set of hemostats would make the job simple.

I think you got a gas problem I would rebuild the carburetor or at least clean it out and are you cutting wet grass you do know that dolls the blade and plugs up the mower right

Spray some carb cleaner in the carburetor too see if she fires back up, if she does you need too check the fuel system. My guess is a collapsed fuel line! It's hard too kill a Quantum engine.

Check everything, tighten the head bolts.. check the flywheel key! Including the gap in the magneto Could be a bad magneto or rusty flywheel or rusty magneto. Fuel lines … gas tank. Usually never fails on a 190cc B&S

Ignition coil

I would've told the customer they're right, they're not worth fixing. These mowers aren't even worth $5 ea. As is. Dumping another $50-$75 into a mower that wont bring $40 running hardly makes sense. Unless a guy is excited about making $9hr there is no way to fix these properly an make the customer happy.

clean the carb main jet is most likely clogged up

thanks for a good video

That engine should only hold 20 oz. of oil .You have it way overfull with the whole qt.in there its gonna smoke like a chimeny I think it is a fuel issue maybe a blockage not letting the fuel run fast enough

I usually fix all the b/s flat head, clean carb and new plug is about it most of the time, most of the cables are bad and I keep a large amount of different ones 😊 First time watching 😊

I love the Briggs L Head

Air filter backwards on the 550

My opinion is the coil...I have worked on many of the 2005 to 2008 Briggs...seems I been having a run on coils...check the ohms if its over 5500 ohms just replace it...

I would start with the easy items/basics. Fuel - Is the white/clear gasket still on the inside of the gas cap? If not, it will vac lock the tank. it's extremely rare to happen if that gasket is there and the cap isn't caked with dirt/grime. Is fuel flowing through the fuel line properly? Is fuel flowing through the needle/seat on the carburetor as expected? These are quick, simple tests that won't cost anything. Air/Fuel Mixture - Are there any cracks in the air intake pipe? You will want to remove it and clean it to be sure. Is the air intake pipe still secured to the block properly? The screws are known to back out. Are the bolts on the cylinder head all secure? They can loosen also. Auto-Choke - Since this engine doesn't have a primer, but an auto-choke, is it opening all the way? Again, easy and free test - they open fairly quickly on these engines. Ignition/Spark - With a new plug, it would seem this has been ruled out. New doesn't always mean good, but the symptom persisted the same so odds are against it. Puts it at the coil or the kill wire. I would start with the wire, bc it's quick and simple. Disconnect it from the coil and see if the same thing happens again. They can self-ground in a few ways (worn insulation, grease, etc). When I get a tricky one like this, I start simple, easy, and free/cheap. Curious to see how it shakes out!

The coil is bad and cuts off when it gets hot

If the gas cap doesn't vent properly it will act this way. You could unthread the gas cap a couple of turns and see if that helps.

Coil could be bad. Valves may be coming out of adjustment, as the engine heats up.

yes

Love the videos

Keep up I love the videos

If thats a 3.5 or 4.0 that engine with a little work will fit a 2010 or older dodge charger

I had a 2004 about as loaded as this one. As soon as I saw the front end damage I knew what the problem was. Literally the worst vehicle I've ever owned... it did not stop requiring repairs in the entire five years I had it. Very comfortable vehicle when it worked, but it turned me away from Mopar for good. And I was a Mopar guy, too.

My first car was a 2006 Chrysler Pacifica. It sat in my parents driveway for 5 years after the transmission failed. My parents paid for a new transmission and gave it to me when I was 16... No one taught me about oil changes... when I went in for my first oil change, the mechanics told me the car had no oil in it 🤦 I learned my lesson after that, but there was a bad engine knock (probably a bad lifter on the camshaft). However I drove that car for another 4 years before selling it off. I always thought pacifica's we're resilient... As long as you replace the faulty transmission! 😂
