You're absolutely correct Musto: the idle circuit augments all positions of the carburetor and engine speeds. It is crucial for the entire rpm operation range. Setting the base timing, valve clearance and idle-speed/mixture and a fresh air filter?....everything else follows (two stroke, four stroke, v-8 or moped). Yeah, you can get it close (by ear), but if you want it to be EXACTLY the way that it designed: you gotta have a $15 tachometer. If the engine doesn't want to IDLE (or give snappy throttle response) that indicates that something else is WRONG! ...or yir engine is getting old/worn. At that point , we accept its age and gitter going...EXACTLY THE WAY THAT YOU DELINEATED IN YOUR VIDEOS! I don't have massive yards, or a professional landscaping business: which require cordless, gas powered tools, that can run for hours without stopping. So I'm shifting to all battery powered equipment. Hey, they were punks at first, but they ROCK now.

Find your part number, then shop online, or at a Honda repair shop near you. Generally, not expensive. The local Honda motorcycle shop can order mine, but it may take a week.

I bought a Honda mower a couple of years ago. Firs, it takes a few pulls to start, especially if you stop to empty the bag. Second, I HATE variable speed mowers - I prefer a mower you can just select the speed on like mowers of old. Honda wheels are way too small. So last week I pulled my old Snapper with a Briggs engine out of the shed, put away with an empty tank two years ago. IT STARTED ON THE FIRST PULL. I was blown away and it is much easier to walk behind and doesn't leave a path like a drunk was behind it.

These Honda lawn mowers have a sort of capsule that is filled with wax and controls the choke. It can be finicky at times. If you read the owner's manual it even states that the engine may be hard to start when it is warm, yet has been sitting for awhile. Toro's auto choke system seems funky as well but it relies on both the engine fan and a thermal spring, so they work together regardless of engine temp. I found a Honda in the trash last year, cleaned the carb and everything seemed to be fine. It seemed to have a really heavy crank though, starting was different (IE, heavier) in comparison to other mowers, or so I felt.

Ive had the surging problem with small engines with the carbs that have no adjustment. When they are new they work fine but once the engine has some wear thats when the problem starts. These engines are set to EPA regs ( In Canada) and the way to fix it ( with the carb cleaned ) is to take a drill bit that fits in the jet holes ( main and the idle) and make it a couple thousands bigger to allow more fuel and that usually works.

A tip on those Honda's Mustie1, get a tip cleaner set for torches (WYPO makes my favorite sets) and the 2nd finest one on the set fits those idle circuit orifices perfectly, then blow it out and they are returned to like new, they also work on everything else, and there is a size for everything on most carbs-super handy. But also with those Honda carbs I've had good luck with soaking them down with Gunk Heavy Duty Degreaser, and letting them set for a few hrs., then running them for awhile.
