"PART 2" HONDA HRC216 BLADE CLUTCH REBUILD / WHAT TO REPLACE AND WHAT WEARS OUT.

[@THEMOWERMEDIC1]

it just depends on how much the clutch is engaged and disengaged........beacause when the blades are spinning nothing is wearing out except the upper thrust bearing but ive never seen that bearing fail

[@zx8401ztv]

Oh hell, the difference is night and day, back to original drive spec :-)) Must be very satisfying to bring a machine back up to spec, and know youve done a good job for your customer :-)

[@pawanagrawal239]

It would nice to explain what was the problem or symptom in clutch? Problems then fixes. Nice video . But missing ..... ..

[@lkgboater71]

I've got a 22 yr old Honda with the clutch starting to slip and squeal. This vid was perfectly timed for me. Keep tit up honds master.

[@MrQuantom]

So, the Big Flat Washer [left mine apart for 6 weeks] goes on top of the driven disk? THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY!

[@RoryWeaver]

Thanks MowerMedic! You do nice work! Glad I found your KZbin Channel. Carry on!

[@ackpelon]

Hi ther, I was trying to change the transmission shaft, but it was all rusted out, and the internal shaft from inside the motor came out, I haven’t try to put it back in yet, just wandering if it just goes in by pushing it in, or does it take another procedure to put back ? Help please, thanks

[@johnnyhandsome8563]

Good Afternoon. I just discovered you and your channel. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to make your videos, and helping us. I watched part 1 last night. And I just finished watching part 2 now. My question is what were the symptoms that the lawnmower was doing that made you want to inspect the clutch. I have a Honda HRX 217. And it has a few different problems going on with it. One problem is that I start it up, and it idles okay. As soon as I press the button to engage the blades, the idle drops to where it almost stalls. Then it will catch itself, and the idle will raise to around normal. And the blades will spin and I can cut the grass. And I have to keep repressing the blades button. Because as I'm cutting the grass, it disengage the blades by itself. It idles okay. But one minute your cutting grass, then your just pushing an idling mower. Are either of those a sign of a burned out/ used up clutch? The mower is about 10 years old. I cut about a half an acre of grass in my yard a week, during cutting seasons ( I live in New England ). I haven't had it serviced. Because the shop on the other side of town wants around $ 100.00 just to pick it up. And it could be a few weeks for return. And where I originally bought it new. They want over & 300. 00 to pick it up. And they will return it whenever. Thank you for all of your great videos. Keep up the great work.

The blades would stop spinning while mowing. And If it wants to die when engaging blades then I would suspect a fuel delivery issue

[@bc5364]

I got this far on my own. If you need a KZbin video for this easy stuff, just put the wrenches down!! Now how about the the REAL part 2, flywheel removal

[@shawnmrfixitlee6478]

You never cleaned up the flywheel that the friction disk runs on .. I always run some light sand paper and some brake cleaner on that disk .. they tend to have built up friction shoe stuck on them ..

[@THEMOWERMEDIC1]

.cleaning of parts is common sense.....somtimes i take a 90 deg die grinder with a scotch brite pad and clean the clutch driver and the blade brake rim.....thanks for the comment

[@shawnmrfixitlee6478]

OK..

[@Tjousk]

I will have a good day, due to another video from Mower Medic 1

[@raulcampos441]

Hi nice video thanks for your time to share your knowledge I have one. question I have a lawnmower the same you have and the part of the clutch comes out smoke will I have to replace the clutch?

[@THEMOWERMEDIC1]

just replace the nyliner bushings once a year and it will last a very long time

[@THEMOWERMEDIC1]

can do a what?

[@joecarillo1537]

Hi Jeremy. I changed my clutch on my HRC216HXA just as you show in the video but now the blades don't turn. I checked the cable adjustment on the blade control lever and it's fine. Any ideas what could possibly be wrong?

[@djgrandedanxingentertainme5174]

Whats the name of the part and where im can get it

[@MrRmh3481]

Jeremy, What kind of hours is a clutch like that good for?

[@arturogabriel265]

I have a quick question on My Honda 216. After I engage blade to mow. It suddenly stops, after a couple mins. Then I have to engage again. Any help would be appreciated.

[@THEMOWERMEDIC1]

Blade trigger worn

[@noblehero8]

Hey, I replaced the blade holder. The spring and clutch were in good condition. But now the mower vibrates a lot until I engage the blade and then it smooths out. When I release the blade it vibrates severely again. Took it apart and everything looks normal. Any ideas?

[@robinoakley9306]

Crank is bent. Remove clutch and spark plug and have a friend pull starter. You will see it. And it doesn't take much.

[@adamsorell4851]

is honda the only mower with this clutch set up??? all ive seen have belt and pulley

[@jbplays7302]

This is the set up on some of the older HRB215's and the commercial grade HRC 216. But the mowers with a blade brake all have some sort of clutch configuration. I have an HRB215, HRX217 and a HRC216. Personally I like the old HRB the best. You can't kill that thing!!!

[@jod788]

Where did you get the parts?

[@jrock2933]

how do you get the center bolt off with out the motor turning or the motor bolt loosens up?

[@THEMOWERMEDIC1]

Righty tighty lefty loosey

[@42Tmorris]

@@THEMOWERMEDIC1 I get that, but my shaft turns in BOITH directions- do I need to have someone engage blades, or????

[@42Tmorris]

BTW, I have a HRR2168 VYA

[@srarcade]

I just reinstalled my clutch pack on my mower exactly like this now the stupid thing is locked so tight I can't even turn it over. I can't figure out what went wrong! I didn't use a impact wrench either..

[@GilesMDavis]

Me too, did you find a solution?

[@GilesMDavis]

Solved it: deglaze the clitch plate with a little emery paper :)

[@GilesMDavis]

*clutch*

[@srarcade]

Thank you. I had to reduce the torque a bit, it's not factory spec but at least its working properly. I'll be sure to use some emery cloth on the disc next time it's off.

You skipped the most important part. Horrible video

[@THEMOWERMEDIC1]

You must’ve fast forwarded over that 😂😂😂
