Thanks

[@jerrysoutherland662]

Arch not careful,when you tilt the mower on it's side if the gas tank has gas you can soak the filter with gas as you are changing the oil through the gas tank vent. Nice video.

[@TheNovaJohn]

LOL,,that's right Jerry,,,,I tell my customers that all the time! naturally when its on my bench I do what I gotta do to get er dun!

[@bobanddebbiec6929]

How i know that 😑

[@Rein_Ciarfella]

I just put a piece of plastic like a Ziploc bag or trash bag under the gas cap and it works just fine.

[@TheNovaJohn]

Great Idea Rein,,,,wont work though on these engines. Remember, this tank is vented through that little tube stuck into the filter housing..I think this is how they are now.

[@Rein_Ciarfella]

Arch's Garage In that case, I’ve been collecting and fabricating plugs for months to block off orifices of all different sizes and shapes. I started with a Dorman vacuum cap assortment, #47388, and just kept adding from there. I used a soda bottle cap to block off a muffler the other day before pressure washing a chipper. I’ve got some now from different sized wood dowels, toothpicks, odds and ends of round plastic things - anything I can find which will block off from the inside or outside of holes. I’ve seen automotive KZbin’rs saving the plugs that cap off holes in new auto parts for that reason, which is where I got the idea.

How to double back to leave you a message I appreciate you my my lawn more is starting one cut off and cutting perfect👍🏿

[@TheNovaJohn]

Glad to help,, for some reason I never got your notification,,,

[@ChildofYHVH]

I have the same mower it runs but it’s idled very high. What could be the cause of it?

[@TheNovaJohn]

Idle is term for when an engine is at its lowest RPM. These engines do not idle, they run at one constant working RPM. High is relative. Typically most engines run at 3400 rpm as set or a little lower is fine, You can check it with an inexpensive meter, search amazon or go to a local shop. If you have noticed it running faster than previous, you most likely ran it under a bush and bent something in the Governor or mechanism.

[@djancak]

my m110 dies after mowing for a little while. grass clippings aren't what's doing it though. i've cleaned the carb multiple times, cleaned the gas tank and fuel line, replaced both the ignition coil and the spark plug but the problem persists. thing's little over a year old and i have no idea what the deal is 🤷‍♀

[@TheNovaJohn]

Clean and inspect the gas cap..They are vented, some are crap! Not sure what engine you have, come caps have a carbon filter with little holes that get plugged with dirt and when people overfill.. A small vacuum is pulled as the column of fuel is pulled down the the gas wont flow.. Also if you installed a filter and used the wrong one.. No one can diagnose over the web so I cant see your machine..Good luck!
