Briggs-Stratton 7.25EX engine, automatic choke tutorial.

[@lzh3131]

I’ve watched a lot of other videos on this air vane & thermostat, yours is the best. Showing the correct position of the thermostat was very well done. The grease to allow free movement was a great tip. Very good video. Thank you, very much appreciated!

Thank you for stopping by.

Well done , that’s the craziest choke assembly I have ever seen Excellent video

[@tommy-time5240]

no problem.

Well explained. very little extraneous chit chat, parts' numbers, Joe Friday delivery. Mr. Snake was a great touch of drama. 5 star video, subscribed.

I appreciate that....Now go cut some Grass!!!

Very informative and well presented. Thank you.

[@tommy-time5240]

thanks.

[@tim7757]

Thank you for the detailed info on this subject. My mower runs fine when first started but if I let it die, it wont start again. I think it's related to this auto choke assembly which is identical to yours.

[@tommy-time5240]

thank you

[@tim7757]

@@tommy-time5240 well, turned out the problem was indeed the carb. Just disassembled, cleaned and all is good now. Thank you!

[@charlesdigerlando9471]

Great video. Really helped. Thanks.

[@tommy-time5240]

no problem.

[@samjohnson466]

You are a master mechanic. Thank you.

[@tommy-time5240]

I wish i was..just a shade tree hacker.

[@occhamite]

EXCELLENT! Just the info on the details of the choke I was looking for. My engine looks identical to what you are working on here, and my mower docs have it a Briggs and Stratton "Quatum Series", model number 120000, might help somebody...

[@johnh9507]

Not many people show the detail of how to align that bi -metal peace on the exhaust with the air vain details are the key

[@earlbabcock8636]

Great love the details.

[@TSBfixitnow]

Just what I was looking for, thank you

[@tommy-time5240]

Good deal, now go cut some Grass.!!

[@Chefraft]

Why is there a snake on your mower?

[@tommy-time5240]

He makes sure i do a good job..otherwise i get bit!!

[@Dave-xe5cb]

Great video 👍

[@dadanomadi834]

Changed thermostat and lined up between notches and also changed carb out. Mower starts but chokes out and will only run if I disconnect choke spring. The air vane will not move to open choke with spring on but will not choke with spring off. Runs great if I manually open choke. Can't figure out what's wrong. Any ideas?

[@tommy-time5240]

i have found that its important to use an original Briggs-Stratton spring on the air vane. i used an aftermarket spring before and it drove me crazy trying to figure out what the issue was. Spring tension is imperative at that application.

[@michaelgrillo4333]

Seems like my problem, cleaned the carb and replaced the coil and looked at this thermostat. just didn't look right digging I found this. Hope it help me.

[@tommy-time5240]

let me know if it works.

[@michaelgrillo4333]

@@tommy-time5240 It did not work to solve my problem, however it was out of place and I made the adjustment. Turns out it was a Compression/piston gear with a crack and was not operating correctly. The part runs about 70.00 but availability at the time was difficult. I sol the mower with the problem identified to a small engine shop and purchased a new lawnmower. I have a rider and was just using this one for a edger.. Thanks for your help.

[@tommy-time5240]

@@michaelgrillo4333 Sorry you could not fix the mower.

[@mickbrown815]

So is that the only way you can tell that the thermostat is shot by not bouncing or retracting back?

[@tommy-time5240]

it should have spring action. i guess you could try heating it with a torch and monitor movement.

[@mickbrown815]

@@tommy-time5240 thanks I ended up ordering a new one today but need to check both settings I did the one on the center but not on the side angle. Mine didn’t really have a bounce so I’m pretty sure that’s it because I have done just about everything. Have spark, fresh gas, new filter, fresh oil, new spark plug and carb cleaned but not dissembled. I’ll report back. Thanks again Btw …had no idea you could heat it learn something new every day.👍

[@batmanandking4643]

So do you have air filter and cover part numbers?

Nice mower

[@jesusdrummer21]

I've lost those airvane springs...boooiinngg. gone in the grass

[@tommy-time5240]

they are the smallest springs that we deal with on these engines. they do get lost easily.

[@jerrylalonde1199]

Like your snake 😂

[@johnh9507]

Shouldn't use any grease All it does is attract dirt and make it worse
