rod bearing

Post by: Conceptz-X on July 21, 2009, 07:58:42 AM: They fucking live damn near forever with regular oil changes. B&S used to be better, but about all those engines regardless of make seem to live quite well with oil in them

Title: Re: Finally blew up my first engine ever
Post by: salesmonkey on July 21, 2009, 08:23:40 AM: probably hard to hear the first signs of knocking when those things are so fucking loud. by then your probably fucked anyways. thats if there was a decent amount of oil in it. maybe someone sprayed water in your oil lol.
Title: Re: Finally blew up my first engine ever
Post by: Toysrme on July 21, 2009, 01:27:25 PM: wasn't knocking audiably when it blew. was running like a champ.

Post by: snm95ls on July 21, 2009, 07:09:06 PM: The rod journal on the crank shaft looks pretty minty in the pic.

:P

I just blew up another B&S about 3 weeks ago...

Didn't check the oil, and seized it up tight.

lol.

Post by: Robb on July 21, 2009, 09:28:11 PM: WTF man? Thats not blown up. You can JB weld that shit together. Blown is when you cant tell what is the crank and what is the block. I submit that you repair this immediately and try again.

Post by: junkyard racer on July 21, 2009, 09:30:47 PM: your bragging about blowing up a fucking b&s engine. The only way to blow those fuckers up is to not put oil in the bitch. How dumb can you be. This isnt something to brag about. O0

Post by: junkyard racer on July 21, 2009, 10:04:09 PM: well no shit. you haat any motor up or starve it from air the fucer will granade.
Title: Re: Finally blew up my first engine ever
Post by: junkyard racer on July 21, 2009, 10:23:37 PM: the one at subject clearly has a b&s label on it.
Title: Re: Finally blew up my first engine ever
Post by: junkyard racer on July 21, 2009, 10:34:32 PM: this one appears to not be seized.
Title: Re: Finally blew up my first engine ever
Post by: That Guy on July 22, 2009, 01:20:43 AM: Props. I have fucked many small engines up on my minibike but have never seen a hole in the block before on a small one. Briggs and Scrap-Iron was the first mistake, i have had the best luck with the honda gx series

fuck that intec B&S bullshit. Honda from now own even if it is overpriced 3x.

Based on my experience with small Honda's, the 3x price is worth EVERY PENNY. We only get Hondas for our rentals if we have a choice, some rack up so many hours in the 3 years before we sell them, it's crazy. And that's 3 years of abuse from people who don't know engines, and/or don't give a fuck about out stuff. All ours use a oil switch on the ignition switch, that nearly eliminates oil starvation issues. Asside from when it's literally freezing outside or a leaky carb gasket, they always one-pull start. Kohler is nice, but fuck they require finesse to start cold.

Post by: snm95ls on July 22, 2009, 06:37:15 PM: I wish we could have found a new lawn tractor with a Honda GVX series engine, but B&S dominates the market it seems.

The 26 HP one we have seems to run extremely well with decent fuel economy.

The push mower is Honda powered though. that fucker is a champ.
