How To Fix a Surging or Pulsating Mower for less than $4

Don't buy a new mower when yours is pulsating or surging! If your mower surges don't spend $100 - $200 for a new mower or $50 for a repair! You can fix your pulsating mower for only $4!

Watch the 1st 30 seconds of this video to see if your mowers symptoms match what I am talking about. This video on how to fix your surging mower will save you tons of money. Sorry for the poor quality and sound variations!

One correction in the video: at the very beginning I refer to the air filter as the carburetor. Just a minor mis-statement :)

If you decide to do this very simple fix yourself, click the link in the video to go to amzn and find the kit that you need.

If you're sick of fixing your old gas mower, why not go electric?

Great video! Just a regular homeowner not afraid to try a fix. He focused on clean: clean, clean, clean. That's important. Cleaning out that well is important, that's where the carb draws its fuel from, right there. Don't lose any gaskets, and make sure those are clean. Its all about air leaks, and that's what was happening to William, the diaphragm/gasket assembly got old and tired and leaked air into the system. Do it like he did it and you should be fine. Remember, the diaphragm goes to the tank, the gasket on top, and snug the screws holding the carb down to the tank using a star pattern. Oh, one thing you might want to do, while the carb is off the tank, hold a straightedge across the top of the tank where the carb mounts. Make sure that's nice and flat.

Thank you so much for having put this video together. I was having the same problems with my lawn mower. This was actually the first video I watched on this and you explained it well! My mower is running like a champ now! Thanks so much again!

My Craftsman Briggs & St 5.5hp mower would start but rev up and down and sputter constantly.  I used two kinds of carb cleaner including SeaFoam with no success.   So, I found my diaphragm carb kit 495770 at my local O'Rileys Auto for $3 plus tax  Following your video, it's now running smoothly.  Thanks for saving me a repair bill  of $35-$40 and giving me (at age 70) a feeling of accomplishment.

Excellent video. My brother gave me a mower about 50 years ago that had this same B&S carb on it and I took it apart and replaced the diaphragm and fuel tube and it lasted me 15 more years until I purchased a self propelled Snapper. Gave it to a friend.  Mowers will last a very long time with regular cleaning and sheltered storage.

when cleaning the air filter remember to put just a little bit of oil on the foam if not it wont properly filter out the air going into the carb.

would like to have seen how it ran with the old diaphram after the carb cleaning, just to see which was a bigger factor in the problem. Thanks.

i think valves. but then i remind myself KISS. [keep it simple stupid ] then i check air filter ,then i check fuel filter. then ckeck other fuel restrictions. then the govenr springs . then and only then do i remove any parts like carb and use rebuild kit. if you can adjust spring tension [touchy] try it, but most likly u will fuck up the OEM springs.

P.S. reguarding KISS. i have seen this problem fixed by turning the mower upside down. lol but it sometimes works for awhile.

Your video was helpful but I had to turn my volume all the way up and still could barely hear you explaining the process. Thanks for putting it out there though.
