Check the linkage on the carburator. Also loose mounting screws on the carb can cause a problem.

its most likely going to be the drive tangs behind wheels put a set of vice grips on the axle then you should be able to to undo the bolt in the middle of the wheel or use a air rattle gun

GXV 160 Honda, spark plug very sooty, when pulling to start it fires back through carb, have reset valve clearances which were near good enough but wondered about timing or poorly seating valves

you need to do a cylinder leak down test. That will tell you if it is a valve, which one or if it is rings. Try a compression test too. 5 pulls should be 160 to 190 ish. If all that is ok check the carb to see why it is causing a rich running scenario

If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/kelly_69a0cf1b13789df1

HOW DO I FIX THE OIL LEAK COMING FROM UNDER MY GXV 120 LAWN MOWER ENGINE?

Depends where it is leaking from, wash it off to see where it is coming from, it may well be the bottom crankcase seal, once the blade and carrier are removed you should gain acess to this, if it is leaking you will need to remove the seal and replace.

Choke problems on 2002 honda shadow vt 600

Have you ridden your honda regularly or has it been parked for a while? If you have old fuel in the bike or possibly got bad gas somewhere you need to pull your carb and simply clean the clogged jets. If you have never done it before have an expert do the work. Also check your fuel filter first, if this is clooged it will restrict your gas flow and starve for fuel when accelerating.

My Honda GXV 160 is very hard to start. I pulled about 20 or more pulls before its engine will start (until I am tired). Once it started, and warmed up, it will be easy to start next and subsequent...

Before you spend time and money on Buds solution I had exactly the same symptom .If it starts first pull when the engine is warm it is not a fuel or spark problem ,it will be the choke,on mine when the choke lever was full on it did not opperate the choke enough as the cable goes to choke it turns the metal bit clock wise but the metal choke will bend over time and will not be opening the choke just carefully bend the metal bit with some pliers so when the cable is on choke it now actuly opens the choke,it will now start first time when cold ,try this first before you strip apart the carburetor,I liked buds solution may be you might like mine ! www.distinctivehomeimprovements.co.uk

New honda hrr auto choke hard to start

sounds like it may need the carb clening out, but it could be the auto choke not closing when cold. there was an issue with some of the early auto chokes on the gcv135/160 engines so check to see if the choke flap is in the closed position when starting from cold, run the engine for approx 10-15 minutes and see if the choke flap has opened fully.leave it to go cold and see if the choke flap has returned to the closed position
