I need to know this as well. The thickness of it for the br 600. Lol, I'm too cheap to buy one for .70 cents Joking, I need to know before mine ships to use a sparkplug gapper now. Or I'll have to clean out these gutters by hand ..

My new stihl brushcutter is regular 2 stroke. My friend bought the 4 mix motor and it is quieter tons of torque , less vibration and burns way less fuel than mine. I didn't want to buy the 4mix engine with the valves but it turns out it's a great system. We use ours a lot , last year he burnt 25 litres thru the 4 mix engine making bush trails and he hasn't touched the valves yet.

What would cause a push rod to drop? I literally was checking mine & while valve cover was off, turning flywheel to TDC I saw the intake side push rod fall down. Now it won’t move more than a half turn either way. It’s not at TDC either. Could that be a timing cam gear or what else am I over looking ? Could that mean the valves were too loose before I checked & the rocker arm jumped off push rod ?? I suppose there is hope since this happened while engine wasn’t running?

With the spark plug in the pull cord is hard to pull, with spark plug out pulls easy, could this be the valves out of adjustment??
@snoopfurlow12753 жыл бұрын
No.adjust your values at .10 with the piston up..because you gotta run them 50.1 .and if it dont work pour a little mixing oil down the spark plug hole and lubricate the piston.wait 5 minutes and then pull it

I have a BR600 in my shop, timing and valves are set to spec, but, when I trey starting the motor, I can't pull it over, it pulls the starter handle right out of my hand. I'm getting frustrated, I checked and double checked and can't figure it out.

Need to buy a valve kit from Stihl parts supplier. It has a tapered feeler gauge (.06 I think) gasket and washer. Otherwise you have to cut down your existing feeler gauge to make it fit. Good video man.

Do you need a special tool or will a typical feeler gauge work to set them valves. Your good at this stuff Jerry. Wish you was my neighbor. Guess I'll have to move to Alberta because I don't think you would ever come to Ontario. HaHaHa Thanks for posting. KIT d
@TestDontguess8 жыл бұрын
for the couple bucks it's worth it's best to buy the tool, if you have feeler gauges you can try to cut it but then you risk the chance of not getting the proper fitment
