Kohler Courage Valve Adjustment & Other Things

[@seth364]

I think you’re being hard on yourself. I really enjoy you and the content you make, irregardless of rambling on. Folks are watching a video of you work on your mower because we like hanging out and hearing you two go back and forth, not because we own that mower.

[@phamaral249]

Keep rambling on to different topics! Makes the videos extra interesting

[@keithyinger3326]

I agree. Like hangin out in the shop like normal.

[@ravisaleh]

I come for the rambling because it makes me feel like I'm sitting right there, having a conversation with the two of you. Those who aren't fans of the rambling can go sit in the quiet corner

[@charlesmoyer5321]

You two are special, keep doing what you enjoy - works for me.

[@SteveHylton1969]

"If that bothers you.... this is not the KZbin channel you should be watching" had me laughing far too much

[@marara_farms]

Quite hilarious to think about the guy who watched all the way only to be bothered with that 😂

[@pygmywarrior3]

I pushed that "feel good" button!

[@chuckbrewington6817]

I like the random topics.

[@chuckbrewington6817]

"I like pudding" You two are just weird. In a really good way. Thanks for giggles.

[@davidkoperniak971]

Half the country had a fantastic day too! Glad your spirits are up

[@jlucasound]

A little more than half. ✌😂 I hope you are having a fantastic day, David.

[@remyllebeau77]

Strange how 81 million totally legitimate votes didn't show up again.

[@jlucasound]

You are a cross between Kevin Costner and Michael Keaton. Yes, that is a compliment. (Unless you hate either of those actors.) 😟😉🤔🤓✌

[@wobblysauce]

Could be the Gas.

[@tennesseewalkers9398]

I like the random topics!

[@Ajaxaxxess]

"If that bothers you this is not the youtube channel for you" Thats great bud. Check those push rods, even if one is slightly bent itll make a ruckus. Keep doing what you guys are doing.

[@Mrzizzy69]

glad to see more regular releases on the channel!

[@leodanryan966]

I'm really impressed that you got organized in just one day. I think you can now spend your newfound time talking about interesting topics!

[@trxtech3010]

I love how happy you guys always are, no matter what you guys are just always joyful to watch. You guys are living life slow slowly (if that makes any sense) which is good. Keep up the amazing content. One day it would be cool to meet you guys or have to come help me with some of my customers bikes! I have my own small ATV/MC/SXS business "Velocity ATV Repair) here in Tucson AZ out of my own property. Would love to have you guys come do a video and help me knock out a fee jobs.

[@EasyStreetStyle]

You always make great videos, glad you are posting nightly!

[@GratefulEd907]

I’ll still watch even if you’re posting videos from. Cardboard garage

[@billarmstrong7155]

Glad to have you back, i always looked forward to your videos. I have been watching your channel for about 10 years, my favorite series was the granite countertop install.

[@HoldenPower]

Love you both , long time follower ❤ your videos are real and I think a lot of people appreciate that

[@mickfbr]

I'm sure there are those that care about the machine repair at hand and those that are happy to receive that which is given as the whole of event... it is what it is... I like the whole... Love and peace to u both brother ❤️ 🙏

[@geexskill]

Nice video. It's good to see spontaneity and not peapole playing roles. You should get a whiteboard to write down the random dull topics. This morning I smell my towel and it was stinky, I instantly think about you guys.

[@lomni02]

gotta clean the carb and fresh gas,, great vid!!

[@scoobydoo5925]

Man, I'd watch you grow a beard! Keep pumping out the videos! Love it!

[@rong4189]

Yes, today is a much better day than yesterday for some inexplicable reason.

[@baulplartcallmop1336]

Wouldn't the installed air filter restrict the air flow enough to make it not run so lean? If not, looking forward to another carb cleaning on my favorite Carb channel!

[@chrisseidel6347]

we love hanging out with you in the garage. restore the 250r next. please please

[@RCUpgrade]

Keep up with the video a day. Love the content.

[@StraightLineCycles]

Here's something to think about. I live in missouri where we have State inspections for our vehicles. as a part of the inspection , it is not required to have a functioning license plate light. However , you can get pulled over for not having it function.

[@aarongrabowski3775]

We have it in Mass too however any light that came on the vehicle from the factory has to be working.

[@tomdunn7147]

Great video, thanks Jake and Jennie.

[@vancemacd6315]

If it only runs on choke it's the idol jet plugged.

[@nicolauscory2065]

This is not a carburetor channel. He doesn't do that here.

[@Cochis3]

You forgot baked :D also, I enjoy watching you guys talk about anything, you keep on doing you.

[@chuckbrewington6817]

OMG.. "this might not the KZbin channel for you" Priceless 😂

[@michaelk2378]

23:28 Just throw a half bottle of Slime tire sealant in that tire. Slime is the only brand that doesn't cause steel rims to rust. There's good tread left on that tire so it'd be a shame to throw it away and run with mis-matched front tires.. Good Luck!

[@keithyinger3326]

I got a John Deere x350 from a guy. It has 860 hours on it. You could hear a tick in the valve area and when mowing, you could hear a pop from the exhaust once in a while. He said its been doing that for a while. 1 spark plug is nice and clean, other is black. I checked and tightened the valves then got to looking for the pop. Pull 1 plug wire off and no difference. Pull the other off and it dies. It would start on that one bad cylinder if you choked it, but it didn't sound good. Get to looking at the intake manifold and it looks like one gasket where the manifold bolts to the head it blown out. No clue how it got blown out on the intake side like that, but a new gasket on each side and it runs beautifully again. The guy takes good care of his machines. Yearly oil changes on all his mowers.

[@bertamusprime618]

Another good video, keep up the great work.

[@marklee81]

I'm here for the rambling!

[@OneStepHomestead]

I read the comments a bit to make sure I'm not crazy. Nope, you are. Listen, you are the brother and sister I never had. Ramble away, have fun, and enjoy life.

[@IronArmPanda]

That gas looks older than me 🤣. P.S. On using old gaskets you can use a thin layer of gasket maker on either side.

[@DovlandRally]

My man you actually loosened the two in front

[@PuchMaxi]

You're right, he did!

[@PatriotPainter]

I have a feeling your spirits are up for the same reason mine are. Thank you for pushing the same button I did.

[@somerandomguy3868]

I know how to adjust valve lash, I watch you guys as a form of therapy, camera girl; I like pudding 😃

[@mrsethatwood]

love the videos!

[@tstricklin4808]

We all have a feel good button, just gotta get the wife to push it 😂✌️

[@billbillinger2491]

22:50 A tube is much cheaper than a tire. I've installed one in the rear (previous owner ran over rebar) and one in the front (slow leaker in cold weather). Have had no problems with either going low since.

[@adambish]

When we getting the JG hat drop?

[@timflemming4christ]

"i like pudding" has "i like trains" energy 😅

[@wobblysauce]

2:10 The ones that get loose are near the fuel tank as it is hard to check under the flywheel. 10:42 Mix and match with lower values to get the right numbers. Exhaust valve adjustment when the Intake is just about closed. Intake valve adjustment when the exhaust is just about to open. Cows eat grass and fart just like Vegans. 20:00 That is the magic we love though.

[@skydiver6711]

Come back on us...Boomerang...I got it. A perfect Dad joke. Love it.

[@richardkeen5828]

I like this video. I used to work on my dad's Craftsman Rider. I've always wondered why these have headlights. Who mows their lawn at night?

[@matthewsmith8573]

I usually mow during the day, but occasionally at night. Even at dusk the headlights make it easier to see the spots I've missed. One of my bulbs had gone out, so I installed a light bar -- lasted for one mowing. Haven't ruled out a loose connection, but not optimistic about getting it to work again. Guess I'll be sticking to daytime mowing.

[@lucasbord1983]

We want to hear anything you have to say! Your doing it like Bad Chad and it's WORKINMG! So you do you! It's GREAT! If you don't know Bad Chad, go look him up NOW!

[@kosta16auto]

You checked those two bolts for tightness on the lefty, not the righty tighty.

[@matthewsemenuk8953]

I always say: you know a youtube channel is big when there are haters are trolls in the comments. Or tough love. If true, nasty comments are actually good comments, in a way.

[@_J.F_]

I know that a lot of people love these videos but I must say for me, despite being a fan of this channel, I do honestly find these random videos a bit challenging to watch. Trying to fill 'awkward' passages with subjects from a list of random thoughts is too similar to a speech by sleepy Joe and I just don't have the patience for it. And yes, no one forces be to watch these videos, and I am not saying that anyone does, but we have all been invited to say how we like this new style of videos and that is what I am doing.

[@PuchMaxi]

@1:45 Lefty loosey, righty tighty!

[@libertyforamericanow]

That gasket is dirt cheap. If you can't afford that you need a youtube donate button. Use these subs you've earned

[@happyhobbit8450]

"I hope you're not in a hurry" -- I play all videos on 1.25 speed so I can watch 5 hours of content in 4 hours :) is that like daylight savings?

[@fillg]

It won't require the choke as much after you get your new air filter installed

[@Iseekoutthetruth]

I Love Animals, I Have 3 Myself. The Mower Sounds Good To Me.

[@adcaptandumvulgus4252]

Prepare for the worst expect the best I guess is a way you can combat anxiety

[@GETlife]

High idle is often a lean condition. Might check for air leak on the intake/manifold. Or dare I say it.. check the carb.

[@TheOVprodigy]

Oh I pushed that feel better button, don’t you worry. Haha

[@MrMannakin]

it may run fast as you don't have any drag from the cutting pulley?

[@jlucasound]

Wow! That rocker access is so "Accessible". That is more pronounced than a Volkswagen valve adjustment design. I guess the Cubcake has an "Outie". How Cute! I love domestic pets.

[@adcaptandumvulgus4252]

Solid

In the mid 90s, my life was saved by a dog. RIP Waldo

[@keitho77]

"What is this? Some kinda tube?" - Bob Dole

[@BigAdam2050]

On the hunting at rev, might be lack of air filter, or the cable and such are just set up badly. Things stretch and move over time. Weirdly, found people tend to leave mowers alone. They'll bypass things but not fuck with em too much. Quadbikes however, the wiring and carbs are always fucked. I refuse to work on them anymore.

[@libertyforamericanow]

It's a lawnmower engine not the space shuttle. Don't worry about compression stroke

[@bergan1227]

Carb rebuild or cleaning

[@Kestrel-FG]

There has got to be a carby inspection.

[@TheGhostzZ]

I am italian, we use metric, just so that you know, the 10mm socket or wrench is always the one that goes missing 😂

[@mikepelz7004]

Righty Loosey Lefty Tighty, it might be an Australian mower😀.

[@Hurtydwarf]

"Well I took a lap for nothing." Somehow walking around looking for the tool you already had sitting by you is far more irritating once you find it than the part that isnt coming loose.

[@leodanryan966]

The boomerang joke seems to have gone right past your lovely wife. Not at all a usual occurrence.

[@philtowle4683]

It came back though

[@56Spookdog]

If you feel a need to fill in how about the story behind the channel name.

[@jmarcinko1139]

It’ll run better with the air filter assembly back on

[@MainelyMoto207]

She *does* like the choke....

[@jameskwak3198]

Does your depression have anything to do with a certain big event that just happened here in the U.S if so I understand since your in California personally I couldn't be happier!

[@bigdaddy741098]

Ramble on.

[@gmanshackshack6822]

That noise just sounded to me like loose crap in the exhaust or hanging on the frame. By "crap" I mean hardware, rust flakes and other detritus.

[@leehuntley189]

Hey check your diaphragm pump! I bet it ain't pumping! And check the vaccuum hose coming from the engine to see if it leaks!

[@ltmltm999]

Hi from Spain . I think you were loosening the two bolts ,instead of tightening. You were doing it counterclockwise...and you said you felt like they gave a little

[@petermallow]

I noticed that also.

[@timflemming4christ]

Footage is flipped for some reason.

[@Phil-Mcrevice]

How about letting Jennie turn some wrenches, after all it is Jennie’s garage.

[@chuckbrewington6817]

We found the button. Feeling much more relaxed.

[@Bradwick1]

Its Scrub Cadet and Krohler engine.

[@joephillips6634]

i like pudding

[@nicolauscory2065]

Come back on us. 😂

[@twocvbloke]

SOmetimes trying to make an engine less clackety sounding just makes things worse, did the same with a generator of mine, went from sounding tappety to sounding clacketyclacky, not that it matters as it was a junker that I bought to play with and learn about such things, so it's just a toy, probably would blow its' guts out if I put it to actual use... :P

[@babenberg]

You are autistic. Welcome to the club. I like your rants, they make sense. I like seeing you fixing things. 😊

[@jonstockert5897]

That valve cover is a two-piece valve cover

[@jlucasound]

I've got time. I called out tomorrow. I called out Friday, too, just in case. Don't worry! They are unpaid. 🤣💰

[@scottgroves1010]

Nice hope you’re on the upswing of paying your rent!

[@bestillandknow-ps46-10]

It's the lifters doesn't hurt anything but it's annoying. Use synthetic oil and it'll go away.

[@jonnenne]

Even the "better" lawn mower engines sound exactly the same. They all run like shit cold and need choke for 10-60 s depending on temperature

[@randyshaw927]

You know you can get a gasket for that for like $3

[@Alexander_l322]

I want a cookie please 🍪

[@riccochet704]

Make 2 Strokes Great Again! 🤣

[@justinwhite3439]

Camera girl do a chicken video pleas 😊

[@libertyforamericanow]

Painful watching someone turn bolts with a ratchet these days. Yes you need an impact driver

[@Polecat54941]

I think these vids would be way better if you cut the apologetic nonsense and do more of the "if you don't like it there are other places you can go" most of your viewers are already in for the long haul and like your weird ways.

[@chuckjohnson-b7o]

Enough with the list PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ . More wrenching

[@ricardopino4857]

Nice Junk 🙀🙊🙀
