Can they be cleaned with the flywheel on? I just bought that bike same color same everything I have the light kit. It has 180 miles on it. The chain is missing for some reason it’s got compression all day long. I shoved it in the first gear and kicked it over and the tranny turns to, 750 that’s what I got it for

The reverse motors on the newer bikes like 2017 and up are great but even with that Harley could do much better with their reverse gear compared to Hona and a few others. That 2010 version was trash.

I just swapped this motor into my JD, and the JD has a always on, positive that i guess goes into the wire with a diode. I cant get any spark. The JD has a off, lights, run/no lights, and start ignition. Maybe thats my problem? Ive scoured the internet, and youre the only one to come close
@theeddies20 күн бұрын
Hello, I am not sure how much help I can be without seeing the machine but I can tell you the ignition on the Craftsman is the same configuration. My best advice is to get a copy of the wiring diagram for the craftsman and cross reference it to the one for the JD. Links do not always work on here but if you search "craftsman 917.271554 wiring diagram" the manual contaning the wiring schematic should be the first thing that pops up.

There used to be NOS pieces on eBay but at this point your best bet might be finding a "for parts" or aftermarket switch on there and just swap parts you need.

In case someone ends up here and asking themselves how to make the lines tangent to the circles without manually adding the constraint: Hold Shift when adding the initial point on the first circle, then connect to the tangent symbol on the second. Both ends will have tangent constraints.

It's awesome when the Algorithm has done its true intended purpose. I am "that" guy that you were in the beginning of your Machinist life.

That engine you worked on, had double, (2) alternators on the same ring. The black wire is not ground. The other 2 end ground wires attach underneath ring to chassis top of engine. The two color wires are (2) hot wires as output. The burned out wire was only one red alternator burned out. A new diode put on other black wire wold be the new alternator as output. The flywheel can just stay on engine. The 2 curves of wound wires are on each side of plastic ring, 180 degrees and 180 degrees as completely separate. Briggs company had many different types of single alternators and also the common double red/Black alternators. 4 amp output from red wire + 5 amp output from black wire. Most people don't use the headlights on riding mower that uses power from the black wire.The Briggs company was wrong using a black colored wire on factory assembly line. (Mechanics in general assume a black wire means ground.)
@victorjasaАй бұрын
👏👏👏👏👏
@waterfuelАй бұрын
All you had to do was put new diode on black wire and connect to red terminal on plug connector. (headlights not needed.) The dual type alternators red + blk wires are the same, and each separate. 1/2 + 1/2 of the circle plastic ring. No need to take apart the engine.
@theeddiesАй бұрын
Oh, would that have fixed the burned through wires on the coils? Try watching the video instead of assuming you know everything and making statements like "all you had to do blah blah blah". I tested the diode, it was good. Thanks for (not) watching.
@theeddiesАй бұрын
Why did not you not just say "swap the diode to the other side" in the first place and not phrase it like you are giving instruction to your child. I don't need your confusing paragraph of snark, nor continue reading when people start talking that way. I did not want to to run an alternator with a shorted side, so it is not "all I had to do". I don't consider that a permanent repair, especially when one of the reasons it likely burned up was a buildup of debris under the flywheel, so it had to come off anyway. Part of repairing something is trying to find and correct what caused the problem in the first place not always just "make it work". Thanks for your comment, don't bother responding, I don't half ass stuff unless there is no choice, and do not take advice from people who cannot communicate a simple concept without being an a-hole. If you want to spread your shade tree mechanic knowledge, make your own video.

Operating temp of most bikes is going to be right in the failure range according to my tests. But, if it were mine, I would cautiously test it just to see. Worst case it fails and you shut it down. Of course I like to break things🙂 I would add, I am still using the one I printed for the mower valve cover which comes into contact with 90c+ oil on a regular basis. Get a quality ($$) TPU also, lots of discout garbage out there.

@theeddies2 ай бұрын
Hello, I have used the same the procedure for this bike for 20 years. When cold - key off, prime every carb, no throttle (sometimes I open just a tick), kick it through slowly a couple times, then key on, 1/4 throttle, kick it to start. When hot, sometimes prime the outside carbs, key on, 1/4 throttle, kick. This is what I found to be the most reliable procedure for this particular bike.
