I just bought one that had old ethanol mix gas in it for $100. Hopefully these tips help me with starting it. Any advce on the adjustment of the valves? I'm hoping I don't have to deal with that, but any information on the subject would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same issue. Not getting enough fuel on demand. Would idoe great but when I needed acceleration it would choke out. Fuel line collapsing and sucking shut.

Also my deck does not have the double stack pulley that yours does but still the video helps in figureing where the springs might go.

@ronniewortham3260 10 күн бұрын

When you were putting the deck back together probably showed me where one of those 3 springs go on my 42" deck.I'll see this morning. Very good video.

Thanks for watching, let me know if you get it figured out! You can Google the model number for your mower, go to jacks small engines or partstree and they will have a diagram showing where the springs go on the deck.

The 46" 3-blade deck will def out perform both the 46" 2 blade and 42" 2 blade. Too bad this does not have a hydrostatic trans! The belts take a beating on MTD variable pulleys transmissions. It's hard to make money on them if you have to put any money in parts into them. Esp if they are not new and shine. But, as a unit for your own yard, that is a great find or if you are selling it to a buddy.

Yes a hydrostatic trans would have been great! Luckily the pulley itself was still good. I should still be able to double my money, but we will see. Thanks for watching!

3 blade 46" MTD decks actually cut extremely well for a lawn tractor. Those decks were used on garden tractors back in the day. Notice how they have disappeared.

@TheMowerchanic 11 күн бұрын

Yes, they cut very well! Different blade sizes makes buying blades a little annoying but online shopping makes things easier.

Hello sir, does that MTD Yard Machines have a belt that goes around 4 pulleys other than the engine pulley? I have a 42" that has the problem of the blades will not disengage. The model and serial number is 13AK608G062 and serial is 1K289H10568 .

@TheMowerchanic 16 күн бұрын

Hello, yes this one has the 2 belt design. One upper and lower belt. Does yours?

@ronniewortham3260 15 күн бұрын

@@TheMowerchanic Mine only has one belt. if you wouldn't mine, can you send me your email address and I'll send you a pic of my belt diagram, I tried to attach it here but it won't work for me

I don’t see a belt guide under the engine and always look up the pulley size on them because it’s common to have a smaller one than the correct size, which will make belt to lose 😊

@TheMowerchanic 21 күн бұрын

Yeah there's one on each side of the pulley under the engine. That is a good point I'll double check size

How smart was that. Sure cheaper than buying an adjustable one

@dand3975 20 күн бұрын

That was a nice fix. You need to set the toe in - to 1/16" to 1/8" and check the camber on the front wheels with a digital protractor, same as the d.i.y. automotive front end alignments.

Fine, but use cutting oil.

Yeah that definitely helps. I didn't use any cause I didn't want the vice grips slipping lol

@magarj Ай бұрын

It might be easier to bend or straighten the bar depending on how you want to adjust the alignment. (if one got bent it could be the cause of your alignment issue)

@TheMowerchanic Ай бұрын

Yeah for sure. I couldn't get enough leverage to bend it without a vice

I’ve got a series just like this as well. Great video and editing. Those bushing get really bad over time. Looks like you’ve got a nice smooth runner now. Look forward to the next one. New sub here.

@TheMowerchanic Ай бұрын

Thanks for the comment and sub, much appreciated! I will go check out your series as well. Yes, that bushing is one of the worst I've seen. Ran great, and sold/delivered next day. Hopefully next video will be out this weekend.
