  • I love the 6.5 hp Briggs. I love how DAMN TORQUEY it is! Goes through thick, burly wet grass with a dull blade with little trouble. Now I want to convert one into a horizontal engine with added oil paddle and centrifugal clutch, then put it on an off road kart.

  • Ve3ry informative video but I noticed you said 10 OZ of oil? Perhaps I'm wrong but I thought I understood it to be that most mowers took 16-18 OZ. Please correct me if I'm mistaken. Enjoyed the video though; thanks for posting.

  • I stopped watching when he used an impact wrench to install the blade.

  • @TonyInTopeka good on the bolt to the blade as well!

  • Thats 20 oz not 10.

  • Thanks for the info, especially on changing the oil.

  • With most newer Craftsman models there is a drain plug for the Oil underneath the deck. You can loosen it with a socket extension. Actually with most newer push mowers in general that is where the drain plug is.

  • Good video Mike... very informative thanks!

  • I like to use the Loc-tite anti seize grease on the spark plug, I find it much easier to change in the future, but good vid overall, very informative.

  • @osufwiffo That is true! The plug in my 1990 Craftsman LT4000 is 21 years old! Stock! Works fine. I just cleaned it with a wire brush, he probably just wants his mower to run 100% efficient, who knows. I am just sorta cheap and use stuff till it doesn't work. I will probably replace the 21 year old champion in it with a NGK. They are better.
