I was able to fix my mower with your video! I'm 71 years old and not a mechanic. Thanks so much for your help!

I just did this step by step but I didn’t replace anything just cleaned it and holy shit she works first pull. You sir deserve an award for this. Your helping lots of people save hundreds of dollars. Kudos to you bro

Oh my gawd… I bought a new Toro last year, “guaranteed start” 140cc model. Well, this year, I could NOT get it to start. I read the warranty, saw that if you left fuel in it longer than 30 days, it voids the warranty. Truth be told, I did not drain the gas tank last fall, totally my bad, and the main jet in the carburetor must have gummed up. I am halfway handy, but have never pulled apart a carburetor in anything and was a bit intimidated…but also did not want to pay $100 (give or take) to have it fixed. Saw this video, followed it exactly, and by gawd, it runs like a champ! Saved me money as well as boosting my confidence for fixing the mower. THANK YOU!

I was able to fix my mower with your video! I'm 76 years old with little know how knowledge. Thanks so much for your help!

I'm a 74 yo female who is not one bit mechanically inclined. I'm learning how to do things my husband used to do from videos like yours. Thank you for your clear instructions and video. I will be trying to make this repair as soon as I get the part.

30 year old woman. Just did this on my parents’ mower. Started up 1st crank afterwards. I cheered and was like Tom Hank’s in Castaway when he made fire, motioning to the neighborhood to admire what I did. LOL! So thrilled right now!!! 🤣

Life saver! Had an issue with bad gas and the mower backfired/afterfired halfway through the mow. Called local repair shops and it's a 5-6 week wait to get in for service. I'm an IT guy and barely know what a carburetor does, but I watched this video and followed it as easy as putting together Legos. Saved me money, time, and angry neighbors yelling about my half-mowed lawn. Thanks for this!

Hi there… My name is Rob and I live in Nanaimo BC Canada… I just watched your video… Carefully followed your instructions… And successfully fixed our lawnmower… We bought this at Home Depot a year ago… Pulled it out on May 13, 2023 and wouldn't start… so after buying the little plastic piece that you recommended from our local small engine repair dealer… I was able to install the piece in the lawnmower started up right away… Thank you very much. Great video. Have a good weekend.

Just wanted to say THANK YOU!!! I have never ever worked on a lawn mower in my entire life - aside from putting gas in it and using it. Yesterday I not only changed the jet main and cleaned the carburetor, I was able to remove and clean the fuel tank, flush the fuel line and I replaced the air filter and changed the spark plug so THANK YOU!! Great video.

Hey buddy. My mower didn't start. I watch your video. I just mowed my grass. Thanks so much. I never worked on a motor ever I'm 58 now. It was easy after watching. Thanks.

I picked up this exact model off Facebook market place. Mower wouldn't start and followed your tips to get her up and running!!! New skill unlocked. Thanks for sharing

Just fixed my lawn mower thanks to this video! I was too nervous to take the control rods off, but I was still able to get the jet main out. I just cleaned it, sprayed it with WD-40 as in the video, and put it all back together. Added fresh fuel and it started on the first pull! This was such a confidence booster; wish I had the internet when I was growing up.

Great video. I just fixed my Toro model 20332. I got away with just blasting the jets with brake cleaner. It started on the first pull after I got it back together. I was having trouble getting the carb bolted back in so I decided to remove the top cover. I had to figure out what type of screws were holding on the cover. There were 2 Torx T-20 screws and there was a plastic catch on the front of the cover under the decal that I had to stick a screwdriver in and pry a little. With the top off, it was a LOT easier getting the carb back on, linkages in place and the rubber tube shoved back in place. I also found a rubber o-ring laying on the deck under the carb and had to figure out where it belonged. Thanks for the tutorial.

Found your video after I decided I couldn’t wait two weeks for the local repair shop. Ordered the part and followed your video. Started on the first pull. THANK YOU!!

[drewtimekeepsonslipn]

Thank you. I did this and it worked. If anyone is having trouble getting those hooks out of the carburetor, just take off the top cover for easier access. Mine had two screws and a catch to get it off. I had to put my hand under the top cover and push it out.

[Joe-elzt]

Bro mine literally says guaranteed to start😑

[howanblaze]

You are a life saver, I was about to take my lawn machine go get repaired like I usually do after each winter. I followed your exact steps and it worked! Found the video really straight to the point.

Was really mad when I used my mower one time and it wouldnt start 😒 but I tried your fix and ended just cleaning the jet. She started right up I'm so thankful! Thank you for a good video
