 you heard this thing surging a number of reasons why it could be doing that a number of things could be causing it could be a bad spark plug this is a twin cylinder it's a v-twin 22 horsepower yeah it's a 22 horsepower v-twin Briggs and Stratton it's got the dual air intakes on it on on each side that does when it blocks that that off this sucks air in from the sides helps keep that cool could be a fuel delivery issue surging like that you know maybe the pump fuel pumps getting weak the fuel pump is right here it could be getting weak the filter down here which I think I may have one we can just go ahead and replace it I don't think that's ever been replaced I know the plugs have never been changed since I've been with her and she's never had them done the only thing I've done I've put I took I put new spindles police belts blades stuff like that on it it seems to only do it after you warm it up after it gets warm operating temperature but we're going to check the filter that you know the air filter we're going to check it we're going to check the plugs go ahead and clean them I don't have new plugs to put in it right now but we're going to pull them out clean them the other side the valves could use an adjustment I hear them they're they're getting a little noisy does smoke a little bit when you start it up when it's cold but I know what that is that's the oil rings going bad I'm going to have to ring it she's wanting to have another race she wants a rematch so we're going to do that on a live stream probably this weekend so I want to get this thing running good for but I don't know we're going to find out why that thing is surging like that so what I'm pretty much is going to tune it up other than new plugs like I said I don't have any plugs we're going to go ahead and do the best we can to tune it up I'm not sure if I'm going to adjust the valves yet on the other side because they don't have a gas girder any gas concealer to pull the valve covers off we may we just have to see but we're definitely going to we're going to check this filter I you know it could be the pump I don't think so it's only doing it when it's warm could be clogging up on the air on the air filter I'm not sure but first thing we're going to do we're going to check these plugs that'll also tell us how this thing is running because I know for for a long time I would if she would mow she would have the choke halfway up well somebody told her to do that you don't run with your choke halfway on so could have found out a plug because she would do that all the time I come out this thing it'd be black smoke would be rolling to become out missing open the choke up maybe fine so let's pull the plugs first see where we're going to go from there that'll tell us a lot really so hang tight let me get some tools out here let's get these plugs out of here go ahead and get this plug out it's just a 5-8 I do believe 5-8 one very tight another slow ratchet quarter-inch and three each drive extends out this burger forget where I got it probably perforate burning white kind of like on one side it is given it is due for a set of plugs but it's burning black on the other side so let's go around the other side pretty dirty in there but I don't think that's gonna be our issue it's one wasn't real super tight either see this one's burning good that's that's where it should be burning at just about like that it's it's burning great okay see this got these crush washers on them all right when you tighten these you're gonna want to go a quarter turn to a half a turn past finger tight that that wasn't the case with this so let me get something we're gonna clean this spark plug up well we're gonna clean both up but looks like the issues on that other cylinder so let me get I'm outside cuz actually cooler out here than it is in the garage six one half dozen other but the garage is a mess right now anyway I got my bench full so let me get some sandpaper or wire brush and we'll clean them they say you don't want to use a like a wire wheel on your on your grinder you know like your bench grinder you don't want to they say that but I've done it hundreds of times never had an issue but I don't have one so I'm gonna get a piece of sandpaper maybe a little file and wire brush and I'll be right back with you guys okay guys so this is what we're looking at here so a little file here brings it a little better and I'm just gonna kind of clean that off there a little bit get all that soot and everything off of it I'm gonna clean it all out real good blow it out I'm gonna do that to both of them got me some sandpaper here and put that right in there right in between that it's like that and I'm gonna clean these up real good sand them off get them all looking real good the main concern is right in between that gap there get that all cleaned out we'll do that to both of them and I'll blow them out with compressed air then we'll move on to the air filter see how it looks I don't want to bore you with that because this is all I'm gonna be doing okay so I'm not sure what the gap is on here but I'm gonna get this get these cleaned up and I'll be right back with you guys okay guys I'm just gonna show you this one to show you how to tighten this kind of a plug with this crush washer okay see that one's crushed a little bit more than that one see see that so one was tightened more than the other but we won't take care of that right now I'm just gonna screw it in there that's hand tight now I'm gonna give it a quarter to half a turn quarter feels good let's go a half there's a half turn and that feels really good and really tight and snug so I'm gonna blow that out before I put that on I'm gonna get the other plug in get these blown out of here and then we'll come up on top all right now let's go ahead take this air filter out people call them air cleaners breathers every prefer have cleaned this before damn it it's been a while what's going on with this one I may have to get a pair of pliers pull up on that let me get a pair of pliers now sometimes these will actually pull up off the boat so compressor kicking on a lot of times they'll spin inside there and they'll actually pull up off there but it feels like it's spinning sometimes you can squeeze it and get that bolt to turn which I usually do with a pair of vice grips that I'm gonna go get right now all right I've got a couple pairs of these this pairs an actual pair of vice grips they're not in the best shape but I got them and I got them somewhere I forget where I needed a pair and so I just held on to them okay see I just felt that okay so it worked I just felt now remember why I don't use them I felt the bolt itself break loose so I'll show you on this other one and down side of here if that starts spinning if you squeeze on them with a pair of ice grips or pliers it'll hold it'll hold it to the bolt and then you can turn it out so let's put this back in so we don't lose it and let's pull this off okay it's looking pretty good so far till you get to that that is very dirty and it's very dirty down in there see that I mean that's really no good anymore some one blow this out with compressed air that could be an issue and sirens it is playing music next door get me demonetized so it's pretty dirty so let me get this all blown out it's gonna blow it out with compressed air and this I'm not sure what I'm gonna do about this I don't have any of that material so I may have to put it in without it for now so hang tight guys this thing what I like to do with these is you know the air is going in through there it's clogging up in here I like to try to blow it through backwards but it doesn't really matter so some of these you can wash them out with water I don't like doing that so I'm gonna blow it out the best I can with compressed air okay guys fucking neighbor over there's pissing me off as y'all that he must have turned it down a little bit third fuck you sorry let's get on this filter I have a filter here but I don't think it's big enough how that works is the fuel comes it into here and has nowhere else to go except through that paper filter to get out so what we're gonna do here is I'm gonna take this filter out and I'm probably just gonna blow it out with compressed air because the looks of the air filter from the looks of the air filter that's all gonna get get new stuff probably gonna end up draining the tank it's all gonna get new stuff when I put new rings in it so let me get my big gas can over here and we'll go ahead and drain that out hang on a second guys all right so so as good as that was was coming out of there I really don't see an issue with it but I'm gonna take it off I'm gonna blow it through backwards because if there's any dirt in there I don't want to force it up farther I want to try to blow it out I mean I'm sure this you know gotta be something in there all these years you know you can't can't not have any any dirt in there see these will give you it tells you the flow on there says flow that means you want it going from the tank up this way it's kind of cloudy in there like it's had water in it so I'm just gonna blow this through backwards like this I'm looking inside of here it doesn't look bad but you know we don't know what's inside that filter there I mean it it's it's wide open so I'm gonna go ahead and put it back on like I said this will get all new filters plugs everything like that when we overhaul the engine so I'm gonna put this back on there but if I do need one I've got this what you doing these you cut like if if this ends too small you cut it off here and here or if you need a smaller and a bigger whatever you cut one end off or the other it's a new filter I know it doesn't look like it but it is new it's never been used so what we're gonna do I thought I had a bigger one like this but I don't it's it's just like this but it's smaller I don't I don't want to restrict the fuel any you know what I mean so I know I'm getting in your way I'm sorry alright we're gonna put this back up in here it's like that I'm gonna put that filter back in up here on top but I'm not going to use see it's it's like a two-stage filter I can't use the bottom filter because it's just too bad so I'm not gonna I'm just gonna put the big filter in it and we're gonna go from there I'm gonna clean this up a little bit more we're gonna put gas in it we're gonna see if we made a difference hi guys this is what I had do I had to scrape all that stuff off and blow us off real good what this is is a pre-filter it's sucking air up through here you see up into here and then it goes sucks it up through here and that cover directs it down in to your intake so as you can see I mean this thing was doing its job but that's the best word we're gonna have right now so let's go ahead see how clean that is there just go ahead and put this back on and we're gonna start it up and see and let it warm up and see if that helped it alright we got it back together it may take it a minute to pump fuel up into the filter sometimes you can go like this and get it to prime but we'll just see like it belongs alright we're gonna go ahead and choke it won't crank it over sure everything's all the way at least 25 minutes that just ran for about 20 minutes and we're gonna see if we fix the problem you know it's a hundred percent better so once I put the the rings in it once I ring it I'll put new plugs it's all gonna be cleaned out I'll put new filters fuel filter air filters pre-filter and I think it'll be alright cuz I'm gonna hone the cylinders out too so I'm not not to be confused with boring them out I'm gonna hone them out putting the rings in let them seat in so that'll be that'll be fine it's not it's not real difficult on this I've done these before but it can be a pain alright guys so there you go thanks for helping me out on the tractor I appreciate it and hope you all come back check out our videos check out monkey 1000 awesome BXX32 check him out appreciate it guys she bear the myth man legend I'm gone for now bye bye and take care
