My name is Bre. I took two years of small engine repair at the local college. When I left school, I fell into a wonderful job at a local small engine shop where I worked the counter for a couple years. In 2010 my husband and I opened up our own small engine shop in central Arkansas where I am able to work alongside my family and best friends. We saw over 2,000 pieces of small engine equipment every year, and answer 1,000's of small engine questions. We specialize in brands such as Briggs and Stratton, Kohler, Echo and Shindaiwa, but work everyday on MANY other brands like Stihl, Husqvarna, Honda, Craftsman, Remington, Red Max, Troy Bilt, Scag, Bad Boy, Hustler, World Lawn, Poulan, Mantis, Etc.. Hopefully, my experience I share, will save you Time, Money and Frustration in the future!

Based on the previous installment, I'd gamble on spending like $400 on a $1500 mower i got for free. Cheap mower and less waste disposed of Just got to the end, that's a steal of a deal! $400 for a 3k machine, that's about 13% of new and got a decent machine out of it!

[@blahorgaslisk7763]

Still needs a little more attention though. Those cooling fans she talked about at the end is something I certainly would want to do something about before the transmission is damaged. The price of a new trans was pretty horrifying. Fixing the cooling is a lot cheaper.

Just bought an JD 525 at an auction for a small engine business shutting down. Paid $25, about 50 hours on it. Rear axle and hydraulic drive missing. New battery, drive, some tinkering, now running and mowing. Trying to figure out how to change the fluid in the other drive motor. Total investment about $1500.

Glad to hear you got it running. It is a shame the customer doesn’t want to put a little bit more money into it because that mower will probably run for a long time now. If they would just put the new cooling fans on the transmissions and service the fluid it will probably be fine. Hopefully after the customer is mowing with it for a little while, and realizes that everything works good they will come back to you and finish the other repairs. 👍

[@b.powell3480]

Hi chickanic, here's a quick tip, on those solenoids, take an ohmmeter and check for an open or continuity on the coil of the solenoid, sometimes by them getting stuck, the coil winding will burn out and create an open circuit. You should get a low ohms reading or continuity, also check between the metal case and each connector if you get a reading the winding is shorted against the case, thanks for your videos, they are a great help 👍

[@carsonl.8788]

Good job young lady! 😊

[@Jim-fe2xz]

I always opt for fixing things but it's always been my own stuff so don't count my labor (keeps me out of trouble lol). I do understand cost benefit analysis for a business customer though. Unless the major components are not serviceable my thinking is even they may be repairable and not need total replacing. Being retired I can tinker for a long time and not loose much lol! Great job and glad it worked out for your customer - they got a great deal!

[@Mike-su8si]

I do work on my older friends mowers for a much lower price because i know they don't have much to pay me anyhow i let one guy know on his old john deere 316 that its onan p218g engine will need to come off the mower for me to redo all the seals and gaskets i told him it has to come off and its gonna take me time to do it all plus i gotta do the work on it at home not at his house or garage because my tools are all here his main problem is the crankcase gasket needs redone but he doesn't wanna do the wait on it so im glad i don't have to mess with that old one I'll probably end up with that mower once it's seals blow out all the way I tightened up his starter on it last year but his crankcase gasket been shot a long time from how dirty the engine looked and the starter his needs a good pressure washing then let dry

[@Mike-su8si]

I was surprised to see there's still available replacement gaskets and crankcase gaskets for the 316 and 318 John deeres with the p218g onan engines i was thinking that old ass engine wont have no replacement parts still available but they are his 316 john deere is a 1987 same year as my old gray craftsmen

[@stevedittrich4411]

If I were earning my living with this machine, and replacement cost would be $3000, I would go with the repair. And also be a little more attentive to the maintenance schedule. To me, the machine is worth how much money I can earn with it per period of time, say per year. Recently, I got a DeWalt 10-inch contractor table saw for FREE. But it was left exposed to (salty) moisture for about 7 years. It took me two months of free time to get everything to move again (everything moveable had RUSTED!) but three big cans of PB Blaster later, I have a $600 saw that still looks pretty good and runs great! And I otherwise would not have spent that money to buy such a saw. Great work on bringing that zero-turn back to life!

Bre, that was fun & educational ! I guess the Good Lord wanted to protect the preacher & church from the bottomless pit (money pit, that is!). I've heard preachers lament about folks giving their cast-off junk that is not worth fixing & expecting a thumbs up from Him! The good book says to give your first fruits & best unto the house of God, instead of the last & worst! At least there was good value remaining in that rider for an Expert to find how to "save T,M,&F" Years ago I was the volunteer mower mech. at a church w/2 riders. I kept replacing exploded blade spindles & bent blades ($$😢)& we wondered Why? One Sat. am I was doing maint. while volunteers mowed. I kept hearing big rocks being mowed & popped out of the storage to see one old geezer repeatedly driving thru a steep, rocky bank without lifting the deck! I stopped him, inquiring why & he grinned & said "awh, It don't hurt nothin". After that, I hung all mangled blades & spindles w/parts prices on a sign that read "Mowing rocks costs $, DON'T Mow Rocks! It's machine abuse!

[@user-ie1ib8nw1k]

Another great Job, I think it's great how you find such large job satisfaction from the work you do. I'm inspired to go through my shed and get all the two stroke engines I have working again, I have a old tiller, sears blower, big generator, and a couple more. I ended up with a John Deere JX75 self propelled mower, many years ago because it did not run right and my friend told me the shop said it needed a new carburetor and was only two years old, so he offered it to me for $100 and I took it. It did run terrible. I talked to the local Ace hardware fix it guy and he said to me that there was a jet you can unscrew from the top of the carburetor and if I cleaned it, that could fix it. So he showed me the same mower in is shop where the screw in jet was and I went home took the jet out and looked at it, it looked fine, but I hit is with carb cleaner and looked again and I could see it was different so I put it back together. It has run like a Deere ever since. It is great what a little free advice can do. So I was given a John Deere LX178, it ran poorly so I ordered a cheep carb from Amazon that fixed it but now the choke locks up inside the carb. I'm going to try and clean the original carb that I kept and see if I can't clean it with your advice. Thank you for all you do and God bless. Jack S. Washington State.

Searched youtube for placement of the starter solenoid which is under the battery. Loosened the nuts and screws on starter and solenoid and tightened back up. Mower now starts every time. Must have been something loose or not always making a connection. Was ready to remove the start switch if this didn't work.

My "free" zero turn had the muffler flopping around. Only 2 of the 4 screws were still in it, and all of the threads were stripped out inside the muffler. I tapped them out to 5/16- 18, instead of the 1/4 -20 that it originally was, drilled out the mounting plate for clearance , and put 4, 5/16 bolts in it. It works fine 😁 I just got my gasket set yesterday, so I have to put the engine back together with a new bottom seal and crankcase gasket, and I should be ready to go mow. Less than $400 not counting any labor.
