How to remove main jet and metering rod from Honda F501 tiller?

I have a Honda F501 tiller that I think has a dirty main jet and metering rod. I've removed the carburetor fuel bowl, but I can't figure out how to remove the main jet and metering rod. Can anybody tell me how? Thanks.

They are just screwed in you should use a blade that is a tight fit in the slot.

Toro Recycler Push Mower (# 20334) won't restart when stopped to empty the bag

AJMan on Jun 03, 2012

Recently my Toro Personal Pace (electric start) Recycler lawnmower (3 1/2 yrs old) won't restart after I stop to empty the bag. It starts fine the first time and runs good until I stop it. If I wait about 5 minutes or so it starts fine again. It does this everytime I stop and try to restart???? The fuel I'm using is new and the air filter is clean. Thanks in advance for any help!Read More

Craftsman model 917.273070 steering problems

My mower stopped turning to the left so I looked at the parts diagram ([URL]http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/part-model/Craftsman-Parts/Riding-mower-tractor-Parts/Model-917273070/0247/1509200/P0106024/00004[/URL]), inspected the mower and discovered that the steering gear (diagram #35, part #138059 Gear, Sector Steering) had a couple of teeth broken off. I ordered a new one and put it on. It worked for a bit and then it started again, only when trying to turn to the left when going straight. If I turn right I can turn left to get it back to straight but then the gear starts skipping. So I look some more and I think the issue is the steering support bracket (diagram #19 part# 156011 Support Asm., Steering Vgt). It looks like the lower hole where the steering gear shaft slides through is wallowed out and allows too much play so that the gear skips, but only when turning left for whatever reason. I know that sears stocks the replacement part, but I have been looking at the mower for a while now and cannot figure out where to get started on removing the support bracket. It looks like there is all sorts of stuff in the way, not to mention trying to get the steering shaft out of there. I did manage to remove the four bolts holding it in place, but I am stuck there. Please help!! :wall:Read More
