So customer drops this off with the spark plug like this and doesn't even mention it. Is that surprising? amzn.to/3dNJEaJ Lisle Spark Plug Tap 14MM amzn.to/3etyh7h Spark Plug Helicoil Set amzn.to/3sQg6xI Dielectrical Grease Super Lube amzn.to/3gGpH7I Aligator Hemostat Pliers

Good to be back after the hiatus. Thanks for your patience, I had a really strong year with snowblower business running right into tractor season. It has been non-stop, and I am also a family man with kids both playing multiple sports. Something had to give, unfortunately it was the videos for a period of time. I'm happy to report my family is safe and well. Thanks for all the well wishes and support. I hope to keep the video coming. Also lots of support from the Small Engine Community I have attended some pod casts to try to keep in the loop. Best wishes, Bob

This is no BS. Last night I thought about not seeing you for a while, so I went to your channel to make sure that I hadn't mistakenly un-subscribed. I was still subbed but had noticed that you hadn't posted a vid in over 2 months, so became concerned. Congrats on doing so well with the business!

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

Right on Bob! Glad to see you back at it...

[@BrucesShop]

I love the coat. Bob you really should wear something under that lovely coat. It is not a kilt. Great video. Mrs P says you can do your own oily laundry. (she does mine anyway, just a joke)

[@KSMike1]

It’s a kilt now 😆😆

[@mikespain8655]

Good to see you with a new video. I appreciate that you don't make a video for every single redundant repair like some channels do. There are a million carburetor cleaning videos for example.

[@waynestefinashen239]

The OLD MAN at EP just saying: That spark plug tap is a must have for any small engine repair shop and i really thought that mower was gonna get away from you Bob, great grab. Nice quick video hope you get back in the groove missed the vids brother.

[@davidcurnutt9584]

Lmao! That Bruce Pender comment killed me. Have a great day!

[@pattayperformance]

OMFG...lookin forward to Bruce’s rebuttal 😂😂😂

[@marshallborder9089]

Thanks never had too deal with bad threads on a plug before , most people too lazy too pull sparks plugs out . Guess I need too buy me a spark plugs thread chaser . But I've always just done it as a hobby anyway , the grease is a good aid ....👍

[@themowerman]

Lol and it's off down the drive 🤣.. love the Bruce coat..

[@drgriffin1972]

Cracks me up!!! "Wife hasn't done laundry" You are gonna hear about that my friend! LOL Keep up the good work glad to see ya back!

[@KensSmallEngineRepair]

Great vid Bob. I’m running late for my live stream I’ll catch you later!

[@dtom1145]

After 19 years of changing my Ariens snowblower spark plugs… I accidentally stripped one! I bought a 14mm back tap and it worked like a charm! Who ever invented this thing was a genius! No chips in the cylinder bore and a perfect thread.

[@fixitorstripitGardenmachines]

Super tool for rethreading it. Nearly got away from you at start up. Run fine once the smoke cleared, Great vid

[@ricksharp6597]

Had this same problem with a VS800 Suzuki, took electrical tape around the plug to make it bigger and tightened it down held great to the day I sold it which that winter, so much easier than tapping it out. Rick

[@Lovinflyindrones2022]

Kens coming on live soon

[@maddy.digiacomo]

Nice video dad!

[@lonnieharris6197]

Glad your back !

[@saltyscorpion2151]

I could see the headlines when that lawnmower took off after you started it: 'Naked man in a trenchcoat swears to police "I was just chasing my lawnmower" film at 11. LMAO With so much damage to the head, why didn't you use a heli coil?

[@MirroringTruth]

I like the whole "flasher" vibe . I'm just sayin....

[@rickbroerman9267]

Way to go Bruce !!!!! Lol

[@BarryB382]

Personally I would have taken the head off and checked for any debris. Just a few flakes of metal and you won't have any compression in a few weeks.

[@TheRustyRooster]

Good deal Bob, everyone should have a sparkplug thread chaser in their box. Now go put some pants on.

[@benrobles752]

Hee Hee... Bruce Pender wouldn't wear short pants with his shop coat.

[@BrucesShop]

Well you never know What will come up.

[@kenhilson786]

Saw a video where guy filled cylinder with shaving cream to catch metal pieces and sucked it out after.

[@brianking1138]

I thought you were going to have to helicoil it.

[@carlmartin4731]

Double wide good to see you back I have a question for you I have a Husqvarna string trimmer 128 CD change the carburetor spark plug has spark and it still won't start can you help me out with some suggestions and the gas is good.

[@philliphall5198]

It pisses me when they don’t tell you they messed up spark plug hole Like you did it and it’s your fault

[@vincentshelpfulhints4085]

Running after the mower was funny

[@TLMD]
