Great video instructions. My Intek 18.5 HP was a T20 Torx set screw with 10mm nut/bolt. The inner nut was loose! Had to address that first.
-
I was told the aluminum rod pushrod is four intake the steel one is for exhaust because of the Heat
-
I enjoy watching you no matter what the material is!
-
Excellent video. Was very helpful adjusting my valves. Thanks!
-
Thank you so much for your advice on valve settings. I have been trying to set valves according to manufacture it would not work. I did what you said set at.005 and started immediately.

Excellent. Mower with the Intek 13hp OHV. Died and would not start with spark. As you said, I removed valve cover, found TDC and OMG the play was immense. I will set it to spec but with that amount of play are there other issues likely? Thanks

Always sharing good content... I have a question, and I hope you can help. Why my 15.5 hp. B&S smokes when I engage the blades. It's smokes out of the exhaust, and it's white smoke.

Amazing timing for this video, thanks! My GT5000 with the B&S twin broke a while back and I just decided to dive in a bit to see what was up. I suspected a rocker or pushrod issue and sure enough when I opened the valve cover on one side the bottom pushrod was just laying there exactly like your bonus footage! When it failed the motor just immediately froze and wouldn't budge. It was extra hard to start just prior to this, didn't want to turn over but finally got it running then seemed ok. After putting the pushrod back in and "roughly" adjusting the rocker I can now rotate the motor around but something just doesn't feel right. The pushrod didn't seem bent. Can/does something inside the motor break when this happens or think I can re-install and adjust the valves and "send it"? Any way to tell for sure if something inside is broken other than just manually rotating the motor and see if everything feels smooth? I don't want to risk more damage if I overlook something.

What if the set screw is stuck? I am afraid I will strip the head of the set screw.

Both valves sloppy loose how to tell where is 2 top dead center. ????😊

Helo! Magyarországról írok. Ugyan ilyen motorblokk van a gèpemen. Kipufogó szelep és a szívó szelep hézagot megtudnád nekem adni, mert a videoban nem látni, hogy mennyire állítod. Ilettve a meghúzási nyomatékot is szeretném tudni. Köszönöm!
