Really dig your attention to detail in everything you teach. Zero confusion understanding what your explaining👍🏻

[@JeffreyStrader]

Taryl that looked more like a Sasquatch than a Bear.....LOL

[@robostyle9773]

Thank you for this video! My starter was seized, ended up being broken magnet pieces jamming up the armature. Cleaned it up, reinstalled and starts like a champ. Thanks for showing those pins to hold the brushes, I used coat hanger and it worked like a dream.

[@bertgrau3934]

I rebuilt a starter for a Briggs 2 cylinder flathead. The engine had been sitting outside for a long time. I carefully took the starter apart, the top bushing was froze. Took apart, cleaned put back together and it worked great. Patience, and being careful is the key. This is a great video, with very useful information. It would have been a big help if I seen this first.

[@wassamattau860]

I had a 14.5 Briggs that the magnets broke loose in the starter housing. I carefully inspected where they went, cleaned the surfaces, and epoxied them back in place. I then adjusted the valves and it worked like a charm.

[@davidellis7695]

Don’t get no better than this. High quality entertainment and expert repair advice.

[@mikehamilton3833]

It don't get no better than that. Thanks Taryl .

[@markwillette9370]

Thanks Taryl, you did a great jobs explaining and there was really good video to help.

[@donburgo1455]

Appreciate your starter repair videos!! ---- ---- !! I had to drill bottom plate to insert nails as homemade retainers in order to reassemble. The outcome is picture worthy. Thought I would share, too!

Your're a Great Dad to take Junior Deere Hunting with you !!!

[@SB-cm7db]

The intro was hilarious! 😂

[@TimBlackyBlack]

Thank You Taryl ! Once again you saved my ass !! I'm not a small engine mechanic but I love messing around with them. Those damn brushes and springs gave me about 45 minutes of grief until I thought about looking to your channel for answers.

[@TarylFixesAll]

ATTENTION GRASS RATS! It was brought to my attention by (+suchfunstuff) That Rotary has a brush & bushing kit for the Briggs opposed twin starter. Here's the Rotary part # 9354 The OEM Briggs kit DOES NOT COME WITH BUSHINGS. Brushes & springs only.

Hi I just wanted to say you have some awesome videos I like them very much I’ve been repairing smaller jeans for a lot of years and it’s great that you’re doing this keep up the good work I enjoy it

[@waynes.2983]

I always use a couple small zip ties to hold the brushes back then I pull them out after its put together.

[@josephpuchel6497]

Hey I watched this a bunch of times and it always gives me a good laugh. Dirty Harry. Excellent video tutorial

[@chrisg8172]

OMG dude! That intro is hilarious 🤣. So glad I found this channel.

[@leif2335]

Funny stuff and a great tutorial. Thanks guys!

[@armyvet4081]

The brush keepers can be made out an old thottle linkage. And the magnets can be pieced together and glued back in the houseing. I have done it many times and it does work.

[@Ribbitmefoot]

Another excellent installment Taryl.

[@TarylFixesAll]

Thanks!!

[@IDontKnowIJustDo]

Thanks Taryl. You are just like Clarissa. You explain it all.

Would have been funny to see the hood of the Deere hanging on wall behind him lol😄😁

[@1607rosie]

You guys are knucklehead s butt I love watching! Good bunch of eggs. Easy on the deeeere!

[@CarlosTorres-ki5wf]

Just watched this video for the very first time and I am thankful and very appreciative for the educational video from beginning of starter repair, break down, parts description, special tools/technique, and reassembly. My magnets in the main housing are all broken in pieces. So I guess I am going to try and find a replacement new or used. My starter wouldn't spin at all. Again thank you for the video from beginning to end

[@garypick2494]

Thanks. I needed some entertainment from this mower not starting. Good teaching video.

[@zipkord7681]

GREAT VIDEO! Thanks for your efforts love your channel watch all learn alot and chuckle alot, thanks again

[@XnnorDaveB]

These videos are funny as hell ...... great job on the skits and the how to vids.

Love the vest and all technical Tips!

[@katnip40486]

After three weeks of watching these videos, my wife finally busted me. Just happened to be during the fight scene in this video. Told her I was learning how to fix our John Deere mower, but she doesn't believe me. Great videos! Helped me get a used l118 running like new.

[@stuffandsuchyeah5182]

If you don’t have the tool to punch the ring on, I used the closed end of a 3/8s wrench and it worked great.

[@nauticalsandwich9003]

Thanks for the info! I have an Allis Chalmers scamper that has a starter with a bad starting gear, like the teeth are ground down on the starter.

[@itzBiscuitsB]

I'm late to the party but subbed and belled. Zero experience here and scooped a craftsman t1600 couldn't beat free. After finding you and hours of watching re watching I got the darn thing to actually fire... not run not yet hahahaha. Thank you for your Chanel knowledge and good laughs..

[@altheone1047]

You’ve helped me out on a lot of my repairs

[@Vincent_Sullivan]

Taryl; I was confronted a few years ago with the same problem you had (worn upper bushing) on the horizontally opposed B&S engine starter. The bushing was so worn that the armature pole pieces were rubbing on the magnets in the housing! I went to the local auto-electric place (Brian Roberts Auto Electric in Victoria BC Canada) and showed them the top housing with the worn bushing. The guy went into the back for a couple of minutes and came out with an exact replacement. Cost was $2.00. As part of the starting system overhaul I also replaced the wimpy U1 battery with an Optima "Red Top" car size battery, replaced the solenoid with a full size car solenoid, and replace all the starter circuit wiring with 4 gauge or thicker wire. When I hit "start" on this thing now you better believe it starts! The only problem now is I keep breaking the plastic starter gears... they split in half. I guess they can't handle the torque. Vince

[@TarylFixesAll]

+Vincent Sullivan You made it too better!

[@jafinch78]

I was wondering if brass or copper, or maybe even if a weaker steel, shim stock might be a fix? Replacement bushing maybe fabbed on a mini-lathe might be a solution. I have to take one apart and see the design is.

[@josephseibert4662]

Yeah it’s the valve clearance and the mtd deck you hold the mower engage handle back while you hold the clutch down

[@joemcintyre2090]

Think I enjoy your old videos more than the newer ones but they're all good.

[@Dennhop]

Thanks for this video, especially your measurements for the spring retainers. I had a snafu with a Briggs and Stratton starter, and this helped a lot with fixing it!

[@traymuse]

Oh my god. I like to died laughing at the beginning. You git 'em, Taryl!

Alt/starter shops have a bushings that will work if rimmed out a tad That’s what I use to rebuild them for years

[@drnozzel]

Nice, humerous, video. Learned a bunch. Wish I'd have seen this before I spent the $133 on the new B&S starter.

great hunt! good video of starter repair. what about taking starter off on an old 18.5 craftsman? you helped me with my deck repair dont let me down now. and there s your dinner.

[@JeffreyStrader]

I'm fixing to rebuild my starter on my B&S 23hp Intek................Taryl, I forgot you had done this video...LOL! (Still think that Bear looks more like a Sasquatch)🤣

[@rltkktlr]

Great work, pure genius!

[@jhitt79]

That bear was probably just trying to protect its cub...(cadet)!

[@JohnDoe-gm5qr]

From who, the scrap yard? Cub Cadets are not so great and if you got one with a Kohler engine it is likely not to last very long. They have a number of problems with them.

[@jhitt79]

John Doe well, for one, apparently the humor flew over your head. Also I personally own several cub cadets made by International Harvester that were built in the mid to late 60's, they all have Kohler engines and are still going strong. So I'd say 50yrs. is pretty good, wouldn't you?

[@garymeador6750]

@@jhitt79 For sure IH built before MTD took over

[@StingerSecSol]

Wish I would have seen this video before I rebuilt that started last week. Great video.

One of my kids saw that opening skit and is now scarred for life....

[@Ken-tr6dl]

Another great video! Really helped. I did everything just as you described, brushes & magnets looked fine but I cleaned them anyway. Marked the case liked you said & put back together correctly BUT, when I went to test the starter liked you showed, touching the positive lead to the starter screw (starter case grounded to negative bat terminal) ...all I got was a big spark. Starter didn't spin. HELP! What do think is causing this?

[@franksmall1313]

Only someone from New York could come up with something like this.....

[@suchfunstuff]

There is a bushing/ brush/ spring kit that has the top bushing you need for the twin starter. It's aftermarket and cross references to the Briggs brush kit. Not sure who makes it, could be rotary if I had to guess. I ordered one recently for one of those starters.

[@TarylFixesAll]

Awesome! Do you know the part number?

[@TarylFixesAll]

+suchfunstuff Your right I found it Rotary has it with the bushings. They're the only ones that offer it with the bushings. Briggs # is brushes & springs only. Thanks for the lead on that part. There's my dinner!

[@Goomer]

Great vid. I wish I had seen this before rebuilding the bendix on my Craftsman, but it works ok, but even with a charged battery and what I think are good connections and solenoid (new) I have to physically bounce the tractor to get it to turn the starter. Maybe new brushes? Great fashion statement with the cutoff tweed blazer! Glad the bear got Slippers.

[@TarylFixesAll]

+ug mold Might need the valves adjusted or new cam

[@Goomer]

+Taryl Fixes All LLC Maybe some new tires.

[@TarylFixesAll]

LOL

[@tommyshang3106]

[@loganmbb]

I used Alan wrenches to hold the brushed

[@clarktferrill]

Taryl....the Trailer Park Boys meet The Grass Rats...What a show that would be...

[@poochie49]

I have an old B & S 8 HP engine manufactured in 1967. I runs well but I want to put on an electric starter. My question is I see many are available but do I use a plastic gear or a metal gear? I think my flywheel is metal, not aluminum or plastic. So does that mean I have to install a metal gear?

[@fred306801]

So if the magnets and all cracked up and and a good sized chuck of the magnet is missing, It is junk. Odd thing cold start most of the time worked fine. Once it ran for a while and you turn it off it was hard to start. I got this mower used. I started screwing around with it because the hot wire that goes to the starter it was hanging down, flapping around. I am thinking someone only used one wrench and broke that plastic peace.

[@GuiltyMalice]

What if the starter is just spinning really slowly? The starter solenoid is buzzing loudly but it’s fine because I replaced it and the new one is doing the same thing. The battery is also good and I cleaned all the connections. The starter just won’t spin fast enough to engage.

[@josephseibert4662]

I’ve actually drilled the hole out and found a bushing but it ate it up in a week of mowing seven eight starts wore out

[@altheone1047]

Hey taryl how about car door pin bushings for the Briggs starters

[@markoaks8694]

A 9mm socket fits perfectly over the circlip.

[@randallcarney1216]

The aftermarket plastic gear is to brittle it breaks after little use the briggs plastic gear last way longer.

Yet again great advice. I see the bear come up with the beer.

[@kimden85]

I am confounded. My Briggs and Stratton 14HP Vanguard (Model #261777, Type #0144-01) engine's starter turns over very slow or not at all when the starter is installed. I have checked valve adjustment. I turn off the gas when I turn it off so no gas can siphon into the crankcase. When starter is removed, starter runs as should be expected. No binding or noises that I can detect. I disassembled the starter this past Saturday and cleaned up the brushes and armature. And lubed the end cap. I'm very tempted to buy a new starter but have this feeling that I don't need a new starter...that I'm missing something. Could a failure in the compression release mechanism/system be be the problem? Do you have any advise/council? Great, fun video by the way.
