Well I acquired this Rover Mower with a Suzuki Engine a little while ago
Upon getting the mower it ran but hunted really badly at idle and full speed.
Initially I gave the carby a good clean and replaced the air filter as the filter as it was a homemade job.
Upon putting the unit back together which wasn�t easy, the unit ran a lot better�.. However once the unit warmed up it started hunting again, albeit only minor but more than enough to annoy me.
I found it strange that the engine doesn�t hunt until it warms up. To others this might not be strange however I haven�t seen this before.
So far:
I checked the top and bottom crank seals. Both are in excellent condition and so now signs of leaks. The bL88dy flywheel was difficult to get off.
I gave the carby another clean today with carby cleaner and compressed air. I double checked the gaskets against the carby and they are all good. I am thinking it might be worthwhile getting a new set as I understand they are prone to leaking.
I removed the exhaust and checked the pistons/ rings. They are in spot on condition.
Upon re-installing the carby today and firing it up the engine now doesn�t start. It fired for a second or 2 on the first pull and from then nothing. Think I need to check the carby again.
I re-checked the linkages and everything is as per the manual. The choke opens and closes as it should when you adjust the throttle
Not sure what I have done wrong with the second carby clean. It started easily and ran good however now nothing.
I�d appreciate some suggestions as I think this mower has done very little work. Some photo�s below for everyone�s reference.
Oh and I forgot to mention that I should I bit in the fuel tank that looks like its come loose from the cap�������..
